I've Googled so much I now look like a Google!
Does anyone know of any out there? Like the one I have for Renko (which I've attached)?

Hi nondisclosure,
I know the feeling! No EA, but I've been using this indi (attached) without any problems. Sadly I only have the .ex4; I hope this at least partly suits your needs.
Many thanks for sharing the Renko EA. My aim is to make these charts backtest-able. If Google doesn't reveal anything, I'll try to reverse engineer your EA so as to make a range (& renko) bar module to plug in to other indis and EAs. This should let them be usable and accurate in the strategy tester (as they'll be calculating the range bar chart internally off the live M1 chart they're then trading on).
Fingers crossed we don't have to reinvent the wheel though!

I agree IamBadger, this is the best metatrader range bar generator I've ever used. 
It shows gaps like most pros prefer. Very dependable overall for the last two months. I keep 18 range bar charts plus their 1 minute source charts open for days on end with no hiccups.
It goes in the "experts" file and then on a one minute chart to make an offline chart.
Halley that info you show is over my head but good to know its available if I run into future problems - thank you!

Thanks IamBadger! I'll try this tomorrow when my broker starts sending ticks again.
Courtesies of mladen - tested on build 604+ p.s. Though I still prefer an indicator version - it frees up the chart and allows for multiple offline charts with different settings generated from the single origin chart. {file}
No problem nondisclosure, hope it works for you!
Thanks Halley, great find. I hadn't seen Ovo post on the forum with the updated version, those on his website were all time limited before you needed an activation key.
For those interested, the backtester script from Halley's link worked successfully with my tests on offline charts

{quote} I think this particular indicator requires portable mode, which might be tricky for someone. Up-to-date version without this limitation seems to be here http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=483951
