Bar Close and Tick

[[Deleted]]

I'm using bar closes to signal an entry on my EA. Once in the position I want to monitor the position by tick so I can adjust a trailing stop.

Currently I'm using the following code in the EA to so I can get a signal on a close from a function that looks at an iCustom indicator. Is there another way to call the function and check iCustom on bar closes then use ticks for everything else?

datetime timeprev=0;
int start()
  {
  if(timeprev==Time[0])
  return(0);
  timeprev=Time[0];

You just need a small mod to your code . . .

datetime timeprev=0;

int start()
  {
  if(timeprev!=Time[0])
    {
    variable = iCustom( . . . . . );
    timeprev=Time[0];
    }

// code that is executed for every tick goes here

  return(0);
  }  // end of start()

Here is some helpful code. Yeah, place the trade logic within the newbar check. Let everything else run on default (ticks).
