Just curious if anyone has run into results showing up as “loading” on your custom columns in your scan output or watchlists (from dynamically updating scans)? Happening with very remedial scan result actions like plotting the last (or close) price in that column (see below). Seems faster after hours but im hoping its a setting that can speed this up intraday. Inevitably they all load the values and the “loading” all disappears .. but sometimes it can take minutes to do.
I saw Hahns custom column watchlist video and review his .ts. He also has colored results with values underlying. However it looks like he gets his results immediately without a “loading” issue. Any ideas why? assignBackgroundColor(if close == high then color.GREEN else color.BLACK); last.assignvaluecolor(if close==high then color.GREEN else color.BLACK); Attachments:

I have had this issue as well. These scripts run on the servers at Thinkorswim and just like scans, they are subject to performance issues during periods of heavy load. I record almost all my videos after hours or on weekends so it doesn’t show up as much for me. But when it does I edit the video to avoid wasting a lot of time while the values load. Wish there was a way to speed this up. Certainly worth your time to open a support ticket with TD Ameritrade and see if they can optimize this in a future release. Marked as spam

not spam.
Also one other point is this can happen and last 2-3 minutes on ”loading” status even if there are only 2 or 3 results from the scan.
