Problems with wanting to ignoring historical data

[Don22Trader1]

When I enable my strategy on a chart, I do not want it to process historical data. I included "if (State == State.Historical) return;" above OnBarUpdate in the OnStateChange Section.

However, my script still processes historical data. When I load, say 5 days, worth of data it still runs and calculates through all 5 days as if it's running a backtest.

Any ideas as to why it still is processing historical data?

Hello Don22Trader1,

Put if (State == State.Historical) return; in OnBarUpdate() where data is processed.
