Study Error - 'Pine cannot determine the referencing length of a series. Try using max_bars_back'

[Dycast]

Using the Profile Clusters script:
Changing the Bars in Profile Block to 96 causes this error, I'm hoping you can guide in a fix.

My thought - In an attempt to mimic standard Volume Profile, I changed Profile Block to 96 on a 15min TimeFrame, trying to keep it as a 'daily' volume (24hrs = 24blocks, 15min = 1/4 of 1 block so 24 * 4 = 96 to bring back correct profile volume in this timeframe)

It would be even better if this could be implemented, or as an option to automatically change based on timeframe as then wouldn't have to adjust settings every time changing timeframe, obviously going over 1day timeframe would break it, in which case it could simply not show would be fine for my usage as I'm generally looking at 15min,1hr,4hr and occasional 5min when using it, further views out don't really require it's use for my purpose.

Thank you for the awesome script! Using the free tradingview I have found it to be quite helpful!

The error is caused by number of historical bars https://kodify.net/tradingview/indicator-settings/max-bars-back-indicator/ . You may try to change the max_bars_back parameter of the study function call. Seems even with cluster size equal 50 the indicator produces bad profiles. I do not realy know why and would not dig in to fix it. Pull requests are wellcome.
