Here is the documentation for back testing in Sierra Chart:

My strategy trades daily bars, but I need to access intraday bar info for my entries and exits which I believe Ninja cannot do. Can Sierra do this?

We think the best way to do this is to create daily bars from Intraday data:

And perform a replay back test. The bars will form during the replay and then you can access the necessary data.
