As the title says, it is not reliable. For the sake of the Manual (in open source programming circles, Google search is called "The Manual"), I thought I would add this: I have a perfect "test case".
I replay mode, with the 6E 06-14 instrument, on a 5-Minute Candlestick chart, on 4/30/2014 (originally, I had posted 4/29/2014): the candle that closes at 05:00 is an example of when Ninja will "stall" briefly before drawing the next candle. -- For whatever reason, absolutely every time I replay past this candle, the candle will close, and Ninja will take a second to open the next candle on the chart. There is a little bit of volume, and the next candle fills in in a spurt (obviously).
I have an indicator doing custom drawing in the Plot method, and had begun using one or two invocations of CurrentBar (in a helper method invoked by Plot) ... and at the close of this candle, my indicator would draw some of the next candle's data on this candle. It is a perfect test case for this specific symptom.
