Newbie basic question: Why does not OnBarUpdate execute on each data event of the bar and not just at the close of the bar when CalculateOnBarClose = false ?
The following code prints that it is entering the OnBarUpdate routine each 5 minute interval (the time frame selected).....
namespace NinjaTrader.Strategy
{
[Description("")]
public class BlueCrows3 : Strategy
{
#region Variables
// Wizard generated variables
private int trailStop = 5; // Default setting for TrailStop
private int crows = 1; // Default setting for Crows
private int offsetEntry = 7; // Default setting for OffsetEntry
// User defined variables (add any user defined variables below)
#endregion
protected override void Initialize()
{
Add(NBarsDown(3, false, false, false));
Add(NBarsUp(3, false, false, false));
CalculateOnBarClose = false;
}
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
Print("OnBarUpdate: "+ ToTime(Time[0]) + " Variable0: " + Variable0 + " GetCurrentBid: "+ GetCurrentBid() + " MarketPosition: "+ Position.MarketPosition);
}
