Get Onbarupdate() to call when kinetic data sends bar info at close

[Megbers]

Does the kinetic data feed trigger onbarupdate method? Or does it not call because it is historical data? How can I get onbarupdate to call at the end of each day using the kinetic free end of day?

thanks,

Hello Megbers,
Thanks for your post.

Running live strategies requires a real time data feed, which is not available with the free Kinetick end of day connection.

If you plan to automate a strategy using one of our supported brokers, they will supply the real time data feed. See the link below for a list of our data providers / broker technologies and what level of data is offered.

What you can do with the Kinetick End of Day connection is backtest strategies. Kinetick End Of Day supplies daily and higher data and NinjaTrader can backtest with whatever data is available.
