You can use session times to achieve this.

Thank you!

There are many ways to achieve what you want to do . . .
You don't have to have data2.
You can try IOG IntraBarOrderGeneration.

Hi,

Will IOG IntraBarOrderGeneration result in realistic markets order fills, as in buying on the ask and selling on the bid, when backtesting?

Is it possible to change the precise start time for time based charts? Most bar are calculated at even times:
5 Minute bar start and ends at the intervals --:00 -> --:05 etc...

Can I change it so that they start at any time? Example (5 Minute bar):

--:03 -> --:08

I now understand that no wicks will disappear if I choose OHLC. I will also get more bars printed.

I think the Portfolio Trader is a great piece of software. I don't really know the answer to your 2 first questions but if I had to guess... Syncing between symbols is probably easier in MC.NET or, if you perhaps could do something with a global variable. Honestly don't know if that is possible - I'...

Could it be that I have ’Input -> Close’ ?

Would no wicks disappear if I choose ’Input -> OHLC’ ?

(I’m away from my computer this weekend so can’t test it myself right now )

I've been watching Renko bars with wicks form in real time. Sometimes there is a wick forming for a while, but then it disappears. Why is this, and can I trust the wicks that I see historically?
