Excecute OnPriceChange and OnBarClose in the same strategy

[fscabrera03]

Hello.
I need to excecute distinct methods in the same strategy but one method needs to excecute onPriceChange and other method needs to excecute OnBarClose.
Is that possible?
I am developing on ninjascript
Thank you

Hello fscabrera03,

Thank you for your post.

Logic could be separated in your script to run OnPriceChange or OnBarClose by using IsFirstTickOfBar. Please note that a hosted script will inherit the Calculate mode of the script that hosts it. You can take the following approach to differentiate logic between OnBarClose and OnPriceChange processing.

Please see this reference sample which demonstrates a technique used for those who need to separate their logic to calculate some values on each tick and others only on the close of a bar. Instead of using OnEachTick like the example, you would use OnPriceChange to have some values calculate on price change. You will set your host script to Calculate.OnPriceChange and use if(IsFirstTickOfBar) and place all code that needs to calculate once every bar within that condition check. Then place all code that you want to calculate OnPriceChange outside of the IsFirstTickOfBar condition check.

See the SampleEnterOnceExitEveryTick example in the help guide documentation below for more information.
