Calculate on Bar Close with Strategy Analyzer vs. Real Time Strategy Enabling

[birdog]

Hi folks...

I notice when implementing a real time Strategy (when enabling) the option to Calculate on Bar Close is available to select.

When doing the backtesting with the Strategy Analyzer it is not. How can I add it as a option to my code so that it appears as a option in the backtesting?

Can the developers just add it as a option automatically in the future for backtesting (feature request)?

Please let me know how I can so that I can allow for it on the fly when backtesting...smile.

I am using raw code as well...let me know on both raw code for strategies and the condition builder as well if you would...

Thanks everyone...

Hello,

Calculate on bar close will ALWAYS be set to true when backtesting. This is due to the fact that with a historical data set, only the OHLCVT of the bar is known and not each tick that made up the bar.

Some advanced programmers will use multi-series strategies to enter historical trades on tick charts in order to simulate more accurate results.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
