Hello guys,
Good news :
A Major bug that made QChartist crashing when loading monthly charts has been solved in build 273 !
Since many years i did not understand why the software was crashing when trying to load monthly charts for world indices and stocks. Moreover, it was not possible to put indicators on these charts.
The problem was the same for daily, weekly and monthly crypto charts.
This problem was one of the last QChartist weakness. I am very happy today that this problem is definitely solved and that all your charts (Bitcoin, Crypto, Stocks, Indices, Commodities and FX) can be loaded by the software successfully on all timeframes. You can also put indicators and draw objects on all these charts.
The problem was dealing with the bar volumes that were stored into integer variables. This was in fact a big mistake from my part. Integer variables are sometimes not enough for some bar volumes especially on large timeframes. Thus i replaced volumes integer variables to double variables. As a result, QChartist now works like a clockwork.
I made some other minor modifications at the same time (improved the price decimal precision for the crosshair and objects position). High price decimal precision is important for crypto charts.
To conclude, i hope that this major improvement will encourage traders to choose QChartist or simply to use it more often as the software has now become more and more user-friendly.
You are invited to update your software to the build 273.
Enjoy and happy trading !
