Hello, Wondering if this is a bug or expected behavior. I have a study that will execute an order on the candle open, given that previous candle patterns match certain parameters. This works most of the time. But in rare cases, I find that sc.Index is off by 1, meaning it's not at the correct index for the new candle, while sc.ArraySize has been increased by 1 compared to the previous candle. This only happens sometimes during backtest replay and only once at the beginning of some candles. I'm currently handling it by doing this: if (sc.Index != sc.ArraySize-1) { return; } Thanks. |
