I am looking for ways to identify the moment when a new bar starts with ACSIL. My solution so far is to identify the moment when the beginning time of the bar changes which means that a new bar started.

Does anyone know of other/better ways to identify a new bar start with ACSIL ?

Yonatan - Please see this thread about this.

Code
int& lastIndex=sc.PersistVars->i1; 
if ( lastIndex == 0 ) 
{ 
   lastIndex=-1; 
   // Any other One-Time Initiation Commands 
} 

int i=sc.Index; 

if (i == lastIndex) return; // Everything gets processed on very first tick of the bar ONLY and then the control would return back 

lastIndex = i; 

// Draw Line logic;
