If CalculateOnBarClose = true,

[kaywai]

how do i refer to the current bar's close? If I refer to it as Close[0], would that be correct?

Hello kaywai,

Thank you for your post.

Technically, the current bars close value cannot be accurately determined until the bar itself has closed.

If you used Close[0] with Calculate On Bar Close set to false, it will give you the current price or last traded price.

Using Close[0] with COBC set to true will give you the close value 1 bar ago.

You can test how this might work by using a simple snippet of code and toggling the COBC options from false to true:

DrawDot("test", false, 0, Close[0], Color.Blue);

Thanks Matthew. Will need to find a workaround it then for my 1 hour bars.
