Question on iBarShift

New comment
 

Hi,

I'd like to add just another question to the iBarShift discussion:

e.g. 

iBarShift("EURUSD", PERIOD_H4, D'2013.06.21 14:10' , true) currently returns 62.

I would have expected it to return -1, since there is no bar in PERIOD_H4, opening exactly at D'2013.06.21 14:10' .

So when would it return -1 then?
