Closing Tick of Bar

[SystemTrading]

Is there a way to tell if a tick is the closing tick of a bar?

SystemTrading,

I don't believe there is, but you can use FirstTickOfBar and some logic to substitute / detect the closing tick of a bar.

mrlogik's idea is correct. The opening of a new bar is the same one that tags the prior as a closing bar.

It depends what kind of bar are we talking about. If the bar is time based, then there is no way, if the bar is tick or volume based, then there is the way.
