It may be considered clear when using the #2 next bar info (14:55:01), but this is futur information, so it cannot be used for backtesting. Future bar times are always calculated, set and known. You can see these with the Chart Values tool as you move the crosshair into the area of the chart after the last bar. Refer to: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/Tools.html#ChartValues And refer to: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/WorkingWithCharts.html#TimeScale But the fact the sc.GetContainingIndexForSCDateTime draws the bar where I expect it (one later than the overlay study..) We really cannot comment on this because we do not know exactly what is being done with this function, and the particular Date-Times of the data being referenced and other details.
