BarsInProgress

[staycool3_a]

Hi, i'm trying to understand what barsinprogress command does.

so if i add

if (BarsInProgress  == 1)
            {
            // Condition set 1
            if ((Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat)
                && ......................))
            {
                EnterLongLimit(DefaultQuantity, ......., "");
            }

vs
without the barsinprogress; what is the difference if cobc=true

will it wait until 1 bar has passed after my exit and then analyze the logic to reenter the market or something? sorry if this is a super basic question. i have it in one of my strategy and it does exactly what i want it to do... but i just dont understand logically what this command does..

The OnBarUpdate() is generally called for all your series including the added ones, with BarsInProgress you can filter for which series is calling the method to update.
