    OnBarUpdate + OnMarketData

    Say I am writing a custom strategy with a 1-min primary TimePeriod.
    If I use the OnMarketData() method, and add within it some conditional logic that uses the SubmitOrder() method, when will the order be placed once the conditional logic is satisfied?
    On the next OnBarUpdate event (which could be up to 1-minute later), or immediately the OnMarketData event occurs that triggers the conditional logic?
    Thanks.

    Hello AnotherTrader,

    The order will be placed when you logic is true and called inside the OnMarketData() method. It does not have to wait until OnBarUpdate() to be submitted.

    Let us know if we can be of further assistance.
