Time functions with manually set Bar - 05/25/22 13:48
In this snippet in EXITRUN/ evaluate():
for (Bar=X; Bar<Y; Bar++) {
watch("! tod=", tod(0), priceC(0) );
}
the returned close price IS changing in line with changing Bar, but not tod.
This looks inconsistent.

for (Bar=X; Bar<Y; Bar++) {
int bOff = NumBars-1 - Bar;
watch("! ltod=", ltod(ET, bOff) );
}
doesn't work either.

https://zorro-project.com/manual/en/numbars.htmBar is the current bar index. Overwriting the current bar index is probably no good idea.
All price and time functions have offset parameters.

I am not 'overwriting' the current bar index. I am going through Bars manually once again in EXITRUN (i recall manual mentions such possibility of manually changing the Bar index; and it works).
All price and time functions have offset parameters. - Right. And - as expected - priceClose(0) does return the close price of the set Bar, but neither tod(0) nor tod(NumBars-1-Bar) do.
