Hi,
Looks like it's recalculating each window, would improve performance having windows using the same pair & template share the same data.. if possible of cause.
Cheers
Mike.

Re: multiple timeframe windows of the same pair and template
Hello,
In Forex Tester the indicators are attached to the timeframes but not to the whole chart, so when you see the indicators on different timeframes you actually see different instances of the indicator. If you attach your indicator to M5 timeframe you will not see it on M30 timeframe of the same chart.
This was done with optimization purpose. Because it is very time consuming to recount all indicators when you change timeframe. So, that's why every indicator is linked to a specific timeframe to avoid extra calculations when you change timeframes.

Re: multiple timeframe windows of the same pair and template
what I mean is, for example:
Window#1 AUDUSD Mikes.tem TF1Min
Window#2 AUDUSD Mikes.tem TF5Min
In window#1, if I switch to TF5Min, it will recalculate the indicators, but it really shouldn't because it's already calculated them in Window#2 ie it's the same (AUDUSD/Mikes.tem/TF5Min), but it's doing it again.
That's my suggestion anyway.
Window#1 AUDUSD Mikes.tem TF1Min
Window#2 AUDUSD Mikes.tem TF5Min
In window#1, if I switch to TF5Min, it will recalculate the indicators, but it really shouldn't because it's already calculated them in Window#2 ie it's the same (AUDUSD/Mikes.tem/TF5Min), but it's doing it again.
