CalculateOnBarClose LOW[0] High[0]

[ltemme]

When CalculateOnBarClose is set to false and I am backtesting, what value does the LOW[0] or HIGH[0] return ... does it still "Closeout" the bar and give me the LOW[0] of that closed out bar when loading historical data regardless of the CalculateOnBarClose setting?

OR should I be using LOW[1] or HIGH[1]?

Here is my real life problem and the way I am addressing it:
if (Historical || CalculateOnBarClose == true)
then I use the LOW[0] and HIGH[0]

if (!Historical && CalculateOnBarClose == false)
then I use the CLOSE[0] ... which is the HIGH[0] or LOW[0] since this is a tick right?

All of this stems from my Tradestation poisioning ... with intrabar calculations the LOW[0] and HIGH[0] of the ticks were really the close of the tick ... I am trying to duplicate this by using the code above.

Is this correct?

In backtesting CalculateOnBarClose has no purpose. It is always true. Close[0], Low[0] etc all return the latest bar at its close.

Latest bar at it's close.

return the latest bar at its close.

So does that mean when CalculateOnBarClose is set to false that the LOW[0] will bring the last "closed" bar's LOW and not the bar that is in progress?

"0" always will denote the bar in progress. This has nothing to do with CalculateOnBarClose=true/false. More info: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...BarClose1.html
