Manifest error in the custom indicator.
Dimitrios Vezeris:
Which bug ? Fix YOUR code.
According to the video there is a BUG on Metatrader 5.
Usually the BUG occurs on higher than H1 timeframes.
After switching between them sometimes the bug is being fixed.

According to this POST I posted here asking almost the same thing...Which bug ? Fix YOUR code.
If you notice only the dots(arrows) have the problem.
In low Timeframes(M1-M30) there is not problem, but in higher it goes crazy and puts the dots whenever it wants.
The same code works on MT4 with the difference on loops:
//MT4 for (int j=lastPosition; j>=0; j--) {...} //MT5 for(int i=start; i<rates_total; i++)I have tried two different aproaches for the dot buffers.
One is the same as I use in MQL4, for each color(4 colors) I use diferent buffer and when the lines crosses each other I put the same value as the blue line on the dot buffer and put zeros on the others:
DotArr01[k]=BlueLine[k]; DotArr02[k]=0.0; DotArr03[k]=0.0; DotArr04[k]=0.0;And the second is by using one buffer and a color buffer.
int OnInit() { .... SetIndexBuffer(4,Dots,INDICATOR_DATA); PlotIndexSetDouble(3,PLOT_EMPTY_VALUE,NULL); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_DRAW_TYPE,DRAW_COLOR_ARROW); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_ARROW,159); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_LINE_WIDTH,3); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_DRAW_BEGIN,InpPeriod); PlotIndexSetString(3,PLOT_LABEL,"Dot"); SetIndexBuffer(5,DotColor,INDICATOR_COLOR_INDEX); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_COLOR_INDEXES,4); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_LINE_COLOR,0,RoyalBlue); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_LINE_COLOR,1,OrangeRed); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_LINE_COLOR,2,LightBlue); PlotIndexSetInteger(3,PLOT_LINE_COLOR,3,LightPink); ... }//OnInit switch(type) { case 0: Dots[shift]=BlueLine[shift]; DotColor[shift]=0; break; case 1: Dots[shift]=BlueLine[shift]; DotColor[shift]=1; break; case 2: Dots[shift]=BlueLine[shift]; DotColor[shift]=2; break; case 3: Dots[shift]=BlueLine[shift]; DotColor[shift]=3; break; }I also tried freeing the arrays on init function, but the result was the same.
If you watch the video, you should notice 4 color dots, and 2 colored arrows(a yellow and an aqua).
On low Timeframes(M1-M30) the 2 arrows are not shown, but only on higher Timeframes.
That's because I don't put values on them, they are empty(never used in code), I only initialize them on OnInit function with PlotIndexSetDouble(4,PLOT_EMPTY_VALUE,0.0).
How can this be fixed?
