OnBarUpdate Called Twice using Calculate.OnBarclose

[DerliFerreira]

The Definition for the Calculate.OnBarUpdate on the help guide of NT8 goes like this:

Definition
Determines how often OnBarUpdate() is called for each bar. OnBarClose means once at the close of the bar

However the code below shows that it actually is called twice for every bar.
Does it always run twice ? is the manual wrong ? Can I make it run only once ?

int onBarUpdateCounter = 0;
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{ 
	if (State!=State.Historical)
	{
		Print("onBarUpdateCounter: " + ++onBarUpdateCounter + "Current Bar " + CurrentBar);
	}
}

outputs:

onBarUpdateCounter: 1Current Bar 3855
onBarUpdateCounter: 2Current Bar 3855
onBarUpdateCounter: 3Current Bar 3856
onBarUpdateCounter: 4Current Bar 3856
onBarUpdateCounter: 5Current Bar 3857
onBarUpdateCounter: 6Current Bar 3857

Hello DerliFerreira,

Thank you for your note.

Under State.SetDefaults, is Calculate Set to,

Calculate	= Calculate.OnBarClose;

I look forward to your reply.

I realize that I am late to the table, but I am experiencing the same issue with OnBarUpdate being called twice for each bar.
I have verified that I am using the value that you suggested below. I am using NinjaTrader 8.

Here is an additional interesting fact: the issue only occurs when specifying a value greater than 1 for the "Price based on" parameters. That is: Last, Minute, 2 (or more)
Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi rgoudie, thanks for your question.

Do you have a script that you can Export and send to me so I can test? Also please let me know what kind of bars you are using on the chart (including the bar period).

I look forward to hearing from you.
