ahujat Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 I am using Paintbar to do custom PnL calculations but that is lost once MT is restarted. If I remember correctly, there was a discussion regarding saving the data to a file outside of MT but was considered a security risk. But MT can provide some space for that data to be stored internally which can be retrieved after restart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 its just that what you are suggesting is so "putting a square peg in a round hole". The scans are definitely not intended to be used for that type of persistent data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahujat Posted January 24 Author Report Share Posted January 24 Well, the intention, when it was implemented, was based on users' needs at that time. The needs are not static. I am guessing Paintbar was never intended to have custom PnL calculations too or the new features added later were never intended when first implemented.

Jerry Medved Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 yes but everything about the PB/scan stuff is setup around the charts and candles and iterating through that. What you are suggesting is not just a little feature update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
