BarsSinceSession?

[heech]

Am I misunderstanding how BarsSinceSession should be working?

With my 30 minute instrument, I would've thought the 10 AM bar would have BarsSinceSession = 1. 10:30 AM bar would have BarsSinceSession = 2, etc.

But this code:

if (BarsInProgress == 0 && Bars.BarsSinceSession == 1)
{
Print(" current time is: " + Time[0]);
}

Shows time is already 10:30 AM when BarsSinceSession == 1.

Is BarsSinceSession zero-indexed?

Expected, Bars.BarsSinceSession is zero based. The 30 min bar timestamped with 10:00AM is the first bar of the session starting at 09:30AM (Bars.BarsSinceSession=0). 10:30 is the second (Bars.BarsSinceSession=1). You need to amend your code accordingly.
