Processing strategy problem

[termi_80]

Good morning,
I would need that my strategy in reality mode checks only the candles starting from the moment I initialized it,
example if it activates it on 15/02/2023 at 15:00 he must consider the candles only from this moment on,
I have made several attempts but have not given the hoped for outwards, below part of my code that does not work:
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{

if (CurrentBars[0] < BarsRequiredToTrade || CurrentBars[0] < 0 || CurrentBars[1] < 0)
return;

if (BarsInProgress == 0)
{

if (State != State.Historical)
{
if (Count - 1 == CurrentBar && Bars.IsFirstBarOfSession )
{
// i want enter here only when last bar on the right of the screen it's loaded
Check();
}

}
else
{

Check();

}
}


}

Could you help me?
Regards

Hello, thanks for writing in. If you only want to run code on the last historical bar use this code (do not run it within if (State != State.Historical), since it is a historical bar)

if (BarsArray[0].Count - 2 == CurrentBar)
                    Print("last bar");​

Thanks for reply,
this code work in real time or backtest?
My goal is to discriminate when the strategy is in real time and when it is in the backtest, and when it is in real time to start making it work and then count them the candles only from the moment in which it was activated example if it activates it on 15/02/2023 at 15:00 he must consider the candles only from this moment on, my system work on tick.

Hi termi_80, To determine if the strategy is in backtest mode, the object will be in State.Historical, then State.Transition will be seen in OnStateChanged once the transition from historical to Realtime state occurs. If your script runs OnEachTick you also need to enable Tick Replay and use IsFirstTickOfBar to get the very first tick of the session.
