OnBarUpdate() problem when backtesting daily data

[hicker]

I spend couple of hours to find whether there is any chance to execute following simple strategy properly:
Enter long position on Monday if Monday open is lower than last Friday close (with defined Stop-Loss and Profit Target). I understand that OnBarUpdate() method is updated on every bar close, therefore I enter long position on Tuesdays. But this is something I want to change and didn't find anything helpful. Is there any way to make this strategy work properly with only daily OHLC data without intraday data?

Thanks for any suggestion.

-------------------
protected override void Initialize()
{
SetProfitTarget(PT);
SetStopLoss(SL);
}

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
if (Time[1].DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Friday && Time[0].DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Monday)
{
if (Open[0] < Close[1])
{
EnterLong(1);
}
}
}

Unfortunately not. That will always be the case with historical data. What you can try in real-time though is set CalculateOnBarClose to false. This will allow you to submit your trade on Monday, but only in a real-time market because your OnBarUpdate() is firing as the day progresses.

Thanks very much. I look for intraday data then.
