Version: ProSuite 2000i SP5 on Windows 2000 SP4
I have developed an indicator that involves counting the number of bars on a chart. It works absolutely fine when applied to a chart and to a Radarscreen grid for daily data. However, when I try it on weekly data the number of bars reported for a chart is about 3% more than for the identical symbol in a RS grid. For example, NOK had 175 bars on the chart but only 166 bars in RS for exactly the same time period.
I am familiar with some of the subtleties of the MaxBarsBack and Load Additional Bars settings and the results occur independently of these settings. I'm also aware that because of the way Radarscreen processes historical differently to charting, that Radarscreen typically starts its analysis one bar before charting does (assuming the Load Additional Bars setting is set high enough). In the example below a large Load Additional Bars setting was chosen so that Radarscreen could process the entire history of the stock (NOK).
Using the code below I was able to pinpoint the problem: when the Friday of any given week is a holiday, RS rejects the price data for the entire week, even if Mon-Thu were not holidays, and consequently the whole week counts as a holiday (no bar for the whole week).
I pasted this code into a new blank indicator, set the MaxBarsBack and Load Additional Bars as below, and applied it to NOK in Radarscreen set to Weekly compression. The printout is in the box below.
Symbol: NOK
Compression: WEEKLY
MaxBarsBack: AUTO
Load Additional Bars: 17000
Indicator applied to: RADARSCREEN
Radarscreen counts 391 bars (weekly) starting 940701 and ending 1020301. The exact same indicator with the exact same settings, applied to a weekly NOK chart results in 400 bars, starting one week later 940708 and ending the same time on 1020301.
I haven't spotted the tenth missing bar yet but nine of the missing bars that Radarscreen fails to count (but which do show up in the charting printout) are:
970328
970704
980410
980703
981225
990101
990402
991224
1000421
For example, if you scroll down to around Bar 143 you'll find the printout reads:
970321.00
143.00 Bar#
1.00 MaxBarsBack
970404.00
144.00 Bar#
1.00 MaxBarsBack
i.e. There is a 2 week gap between Bar 143 and Bar 144!
I've tested the above code on two different installations of ProSuite and on other stocks like CSCO, IBM, and got the same results. I also spent hours searching forums for a solution but am surprised to find no mention made of what seems like a pretty fundamental flaw or at least quirk.
I'd really like to know is if this quirk is recognised by other Tradestation users and whether there is a known workaround (or not).

1.00 MaxBarsBackRadarscreen counts 391 bars (weekly) starting 940701 and ending 1020301. The exact same indicator with the exact same settings, applied to a weekly NOK chart results in 400 bars, starting one week later 940708 and ending the same time on 1020301.
I haven't spotted the tenth missing bar yet but nine of the missing bars that Radarscreen fails to count (but which do show up in the charting printout) are:
970328
970704
980410
980703
981225
990101
990402
991224
1000421
For example, if you scroll down to around Bar 143 you'll find the printout reads:
970321.00
143.00 Bar#
1.00 MaxBarsBack
970404.00
144.00 Bar#
1.00 MaxBarsBack
i.e. There is a 2 week gap between Bar 143 and Bar 144!
I've tested the above code on two different installations of ProSuite and on other stocks like CSCO, IBM, and got the same results. I also spent hours searching forums for a solution but am surprised to find no mention made of what seems like a pretty fundamental flaw or at least quirk.
I'd really like to know is if this quirk is recognised by other Tradestation users and whether there is a known workaround (or not).
