Post From: Automated Trading System - Trade executing one bar late

Hello SC,

I have spent hours in the following issue and can't find the answer.

I am using Automated Trading System, testing on replay, on one chart only, using Accurate Trading System Back Test Mode. The Automated Trading System not evaluating on bar close. Trade execution happens one bar after the signal.

Example (Chart is 1 minute bars):

09:59 Conditions are true; based on Color Bar Based on Alert Condition, set to Evaluate on Close, hence conditions take place at 9:59 and become true at 10:00:00
10:00:00 Alert condition = TRUE; populates a number in the spreadsheet at 10:00:00; trade arrow prints
10:01:00 Trade executes

Could you please help with this?

Thanks
