Hi,
I have custom data that I made that I imported into MC, is it possible to reference future bars in this data in MC? The custom data is a forecasted estimate of the future.
I know you cannot do this in TS and it's obvious as to why. A workaround for me would be to post date my data and reference that way.

What do you mean by "reference future bars"?Hi,

Can you give an example?
Can you draw a mock chart to illustrate your vision?

Hello shane1800,
It is possible to reference future bar if this bar is displayed on chart. In order to display a future bar on chart the bar with future data and time stamps should be present in MC database and your Windows OS date time should be also in future. Please provide more details if you need a more detailed answer.

Technically it should be possible if the data 2 had the bar plotted on chart 200 bars forward.
