Need help on updating last bar.

[nissan]

I have a few studies which I run on different time intervals including daily as well as intraday.

When for example, I run my studies on 5 minutes charts, I want the last bar computation be done every 1 minute. Thus, I run the study without "setComputeOnClose", and reload it, using reloadEFS, every 1 minute.

When the studies run on a few chart windows, the resulting performance is very poor.

I wonder if it is possible to enter the study only every 1 minute, and NOT every tick, as it is done now.

Enclosed is an example of my code.

Thank you

Hello Yaniv,

The best solution I can think of would be to add a check for the new bar state of the 1-minute interval at the top of main().

Try adding the following.

function main() {
    if (getBarStateInterval("1") != BARSTATE_NEWBAR) return;
    
    return;
} 

This will only allow the rest of your code in main() to execute at the new bar state of the 1-minute interval, which will occur at each opening trade for the respective 1-minute bars.

This would be much more efficient than using reloadEFS(). Give this a try and let me know if this works for you.
