If backtesting this only prints true- is that expected?

protectedoverridevoid Initialize()
{
CalculateOnBarClose = false;
}
///<summary>
/// Called on each bar update event (incoming tick)
///</summary>
protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
{
Print(CalculateOnBarClose);
}

HT101,

Correct. CalculateOnBarClose only impacts real-time trading. When backtesting you do not have intrabar granularity and you process at the end of every single bar.
