Hi 12tkram,

There are fields that are specific to Bar generation and those specific to Tick generation.

Code: Select all

{BarBeginTime}
is the timestamp that is applicable to the beginning of a bar.

Code: Select all

{Timestamp}
is probably what you are after for the Tick time frame.

Please see our manual for more:

Thanks.
