Intrabar entry in Backtest

[PopovDS]

Hello NT8.
Help me please to sort the following question out. Is there a way to get entry at some intrabar moment when backtesting with disabled Tick Replay option? By default the strategy place entry marker at the 1st tick of the next bar in historical mode. What if I use some secondary 1-tick chart that can be added with using of AddDataSeries(BarsPeriodType.Tick, 1) method? Will it help me to place the order at the specific place of primary bar when BarInProgress = 1?

Hello PopovDS,

You can add a data series with AddDataSeries() and place orders to that 1 tick series while that BarsInProgress is updating OnBarUpdate().
Note, any primary bar indicators would not be changing value while that 1 tick series progresses (until a primary bar closes) without TickReplay enabled.

Below is a link to the reference sample which demonstrates adding a 1 tick series and placing orders to it.

As well as a link to a guide on 1-tick intra-bar granularity.
