Hi, I am running a "Auto Trade System Replay Backtest" on a 1-minute bar chart; the sc.Index is numbered in relation to the 1minute bars. Is there anyway to access the actual tick/data-record that each back test calculation is performed on, like a sub-index of the 1-minute bar index? My guess is that these are being accessed using their sc.DateTime and a sub-index between the 1minute bars is not maintained as the number of ticks would be different for every bar? I am trying to understand exactly why a trade consistently triggers during a Bar-based test and Not during a Replay Backtest which is significantly more accurate; in order to be able to do this I need to access the data inside the 1minute bars, are there any provisions to do this as everything sc seems to be sc.Index based?

Refer to: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/ACSIL_Members_Functions.html#scGetTimeAndSales That function describes a method to do this by using a separate chart with Number of Trades Per Bar set to 1.
