What are you using for each? No clue but maybe could shed some light on what you are talking about.
Post a pic, plenty of helpful people here. Plus not sure can help but under settings in the indicator there is a setting called"visual" within that there is a setting "auto scale" which by default is set to True, maybe try setting it to false to see if helps in the appearance.
The VisualSMA is a multi-timeframe indicator which loads secondary bars. For example if you set the bar period to 5 and select minute bars, the indicator will load a secondary bar series of 5-min bars. The indicator period refers to the lookback period for the indicator. For example, if you select the indicator period as 20, the indicator will then calculate a SMA(20) from the bars loaded, which are 5-min bars. This SMA(20) calculated from 5-min bars will be shown on any chart (volume, renko, tick ....) to which you apply the indicator.
You can compare the result with a SMA(20) directly applied to a 5 min chart.
