Post From: Auto Trade Spreadsheet - Signal Only Once Per Bar

I recently tried to change the Signal Only on Bar Close to No to see if I could get closer to my trade entry and exits. When I did this real time I got multiple entries and exits as the stock ticked past and below the trigger. I have the Signal Only Once Per Bar set to Yes. I assume that this function means that the first signal would trigger a play and then subsequent signals would be ignored until the next bar printed. Is this how this function works or is it different? This does not show up on backtesting as you don't get the back and forth as the bars are printed.
