PSC getting removed from the chart by itself ,mt5

[paymanz]

PSC keeps getting removed for no apparent reason , every 1 hour or so... i attached screenshot of expert tab showing some error. can you please help? thanks
build number is 4778

What are messages before those? Because those are post-crash messages, they don't tell much about why the EA crashed...

nothing from PSC , attached another screenshot:

Unfortunately, it's impossible to tell what causes this. It doesn't provide any info on the cause of the crash. My best guess currently is that it is somehow connected with some quirk of the build 4778. Would it be possible for you to try and downgrade it to 4755 to see if this helps?

i had the same issue long time ago , maybe it has something to do with the settings i use?! because i customize everything and apparently this issue only happening to me.
the issue i opened previously:
#58
here is my settings if you think it can help find the reason:

That previous issue seems to be a little different. Anyway, I will run the EA with your settings and see if I can reproduce this on 4755.

By the way, are you using any indicators on the same chart?

thanks! yes i do have multiple indicators on the chart , candle timer , pip show and stuff like that. please let me know if you want to look into them , i can upload them.

Did you try loading the Position Sizer on a separate chart with no other indicator and checking if it also fails the same way?

no , didn't know it can cause that , i will try. btw i had other EAs and indicators didn't cause this issue with them....

That shouldn't be the case (other indicators causing an issue with the PS), but that could be result of some quirk either with the PS's code or of the MT5 build.

[paymanz]

its the session event mark indicator that causes the problem. but it doesnt happen with other EAs. i post the code maybe you can kindly suggest which part of the code can cause this issue?

@paymanz Did you find the reason of its conflict with the Position Sizer? Because I ran that indicator for 3 days straight together with PS and switched chart timeframes regularly but not even once PS crashed with it. Perhaps, it's some other indicator that does that?

Thanks, I'm pretty sure it's that indicator because I haven't had that issue since i removed it. Other indicators are still on the chart without problem.
