Hi I use sc.BaseDateTimeIn[] for time at open of bars. Is there a way to get the time of close of the bar (or last trade in the bar..) ? -- W. |

as far as I can see the sc.LatestDateTimeForLastBar works only on the current last bar unlike sc.BaseDateTimeIn[] that gives the open of ALL barS -- W Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-06-15 17:21:19

Yes it is only for the last bar in the chart. That is correct.

It is on our task list to add a new array which does contain the last Date-Time of each bar. We will try to get that into the next release.

Note for other programmers, The bar End time is available as of version 1575 : Added new sc.BaseDataEndDateTime array to ACSIL which contains the ending date time for each chart bar. This requires setting sc.MaintainAdditionalChartDataArrays to 1 to cause this data to be maintained.

I have been testing this and see that there can be quite some difference between the end time of a bar and the subsequent start of a new bar. Varying between 1 and 12 seconds. Is this normal? Edit. This was on a 15 min chart. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-07-17 22:29:39

Yes this is completely normal and expected. It can even be longer than that.
