Is there a way to manually trigger new OnBarUpdate in Analyzer
When running the analyzer it seems that the only way to trigger the OnBarUpdate event (or any other available event) is to hit "Run." But what if I want to use the pencil tool to draw a line and then capture it's anchors in my strategy's code? OnBarUpdate will never trigger again since the data is historical and not live. In the live chart the updated bars triggers the event so no problem there. Or, is there another event I can use besides the OnBarUpdate while using the strategy analyzer to backtest?Tags: None

Hello Chippy,
Thanks for your post.
The Strategy Analyzer is historical processing only. OnBarUpdate is primarily what is used, but you technically could use Tick Replay for OnMarketData updates for Last ticks. Combining Tick Replay with a backtest may be very performance intensive so I would recommend avoiding it if possible. IF you can use a single tick data series, this would be preferred over Tick Replay.
There would not be another means to trigger OnBarUpdate in a strategy other than running/enabling it.
With regards to your obstacle, you would need to test the strategy in a realtime context since the behaviors of the strategy depend on human interaction. You could consider using the Playback Connection with Market Replay data to perform testing that mimics realtime.

We look forward to assisting.JimNinjaTrader Customer Service
