Offline Back Testing?

[pa-kay]

I seem to be experiencing problems running formulas that rely on data at bar 0. The crashes and hangs start happening when pre-market activity begins to pick up on the symbol I am testing. I tried using setComputeOnClose(), but that basically stops reading data at bar -1, so I have to adjust the code. This can work, but when I want to use that script to read bar 0, I must change it back (or do something trickier in the code, I guess). Is there another way to ingore incoming data and basically work offline when desired?

Hello pa-kay,

Please post a code example and a more detailed description of what your need to accomplish and I'll try to help find a solution.

Instead of testing for bar index == 0 or ==-1, try using:

isLastBarOnChart()

You may have to be on a more recent version of eSignal to use this though.
