so what youre saying is that i only have the option the generate a market order at tick two or next bar because by the time multicharts or TS has processed what var 2 is or whatever its to late to generate a market order on the first bar, this bar or same bar however you properly say it
I think you are getting the point:
It is physically and logically impossible to generate an order to
buy at the open of the current bar
if you want to generate an order intra-bar (i.e. in the same bar),
see post #2.
if you want to generate an order for the opening,
see post #5.
