Connected to Simulator - if (Historical) return; not working

[whotookmynickname]

Hi there

I am testing a strategy. Typically I include the following code piece in my strategy and set 1 for backtests, and 0 for live trading so I don't get historical order fills.

if (DoBacktest == 1)
            {
               // do something
            }
            else
            {
                if (Historical)
                    return;    
            }

However this does not seem to work and all my historical orders fill when connected to the simulator, may-be because the data is not classified as "live". Is there a way I can circumvent this?

Thank you

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

I have tested out the logic on my end and I'm not receiving the same thing.

Historical is going to refer to all the historical data at that time of loading. Any new data being generated after that would be Live data.

When you load it on a chart, are you seeing that the Historical is getting filled?
