I have a simple system that is built using daily charts. I would like it to notify me at EoD when the bar closes (in real-time). When I run the system, however, it does not show me (for example) today's notification until tomorrow morning when the next bar starts, so I get my notifications too late. I need them at 4pm Eastern time when the markets close. How do I tell my EFS script to execute at bar close and not at next bar open?

Getting signals real-time at bar close on DAILY charts

The only way efs can determine that a bar is closed is when a new bar is opened ie at BARSTATE_NEWBAR
To accomplish what you want you will have to write some time based routine (search the forum as I believe the topic has been discussed before).
