onBar() question
12 Jul 2013, 18:38

my robot checks a condition using onBar()

ie

 

protected override void OnBar()
        
        
        { 
        
        if(Account.Equity >  X

 

I set the chart to 1hr using the Instance dropdown

is there a way to set/change the onBar from h1 to say m5 based on a condition within the robot code (vs manually and rerunning the backtest)?

 

Thanks!

They will tell you that this will be implemented in the future and you will wait forever :-)

But I heard about  some software that may be helpful:

I read another post where it is mentioned that multitime frames will be implemented in 3 months but I'm assuming it will not be like what you described.
I think you can use a Timer to accomplish this.

That is correct it will be implemented in about 2-3 months from now. There will functionality for different timeframes for the OnBar event.
