RealTime Strategy (COBC=false) combined with an Indicator with COBC=true

[Sangui]

Is it anyway to combine a Strategy that enters the market with COBC=false with an indicator (that acts as a filter) working with COBC=true?.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Sangui,

Accessing an Indicator from a Strategy with COBC set to false will make the Indicator calculated on COBC false as well. If you want to only access the values of the indicator from the previous bars close you may want to access the value of it 1 bar ago "[1]" to get the value of the previous bars close.

Note that if you need to see when the start of a new bar is you may use the FirstTickOfBar to be able to get when a new bar starts.

Hello JC,

I thought about this, but the problem is that the indicator has a different behavior with COBC=true or false. And accessing to previour bar [1] or FirstTickOfBar will not be the same as using COBC=true. Anyways I will keep thinking .

Hello Sangui,

While, I am not sure how your logic is entering the orders on the Strategy side with COBC false, the only other method that I could think of that may help would be to have COBC set to true and then add a smaller period to your strategy. Here is a link to our references that goes over intrabar granularity that you may view.
