This indicator achieves plotting Renko bars with no repainting by resetting the open of the first Renko bar every market open after the FOREX market close. The indicator displays Renko bars for a timeframe chart which means multiple Renko bars can appear in the same timeframe as a single chart candle. This is because Renko bars aren't time bound, they are formed based on price movement. Whenever multiple Renko bars would appear in the timeframe of a single chart candle, the Renko bars will be displayed in a stacked manner meaning the Renko bars will be stacked on top of each other. If the Renko bars stacked are green, the top Renko bar close is the Renko close price of the timeframe. Whenever there's no Renko price movement for a specific candles timeframe, there will be a shadow of the color of the previous Renko bar displayed. These shadows can go on for a while if there's no significant price movement or if the Renko brick size input parameter is set too high.
There's 2 ways to calculate the size of each Renko bar. The first way (the default way) uses a fixed fixed brick size where you can choose the size of each brick. The second way uses a dynamic brick size which just uses the ATR with whatever length you would like to determine the brick size for each Renko bar. The dynamic option also has a factor input which would be multiplied with the calculated ATR to determine the brick size. To use the dynamic option, just check the box in the inputs section labeled "Dynamic Renko Box Size (uses the ATR for renko box size)".
