Make a run() at the end of the first bar even if StartDate = NOW

Hello!

I have a script that I want to run immediately at start, and also when the bars finished - even the first one!
If I do this:

Code

StartDate = NOW;

the code will run immediately, but won't run again at the end of the first bar.

My solution is this:

Code

bool runStuff = false;
int runCounter = 0;

...

function run(){

	if (is(LOOKBACK)){
		runCounter++;
	}
	if (runCounter >= LookBack){
		runStuff = true;
	}

	if (runStuff){
		//...run the stuff
	}
}

Is there a more elegant way for doing an immediate run and also a normal run? Maybe a flag for it, like

Code

is(LASTLOOKBACK)

or something like this?

So runstuff would be just this:

Code

if (!is(LOOKBACK) || (is(LASTLOOKBACK)){
	//...run the stuff
}

Thank you!
