Intra-BAR Entries & Exits

08-15-2022, 07:34 AM

When using daily bar data in a Backtest, can I designate and ENTRY (EXIT) to occur at some calculated price intra-bar? For example; "If "High" today is greater than Yesterday's calculated Moving Average, then ENTER Long Stop at price = "Yesterday's Calculated Moving Average Price"

Hello CRCatNinja,

As long as you are adding intra-bar information you can place orders intra-bar.

Below is a link to a forum post that details.
