Bar Data Values

Description

Date of this bar

Notes

Returns the current bar end date as a number in YYYYMMDD format.

If the bar is of non-daily BarSize, then this will be the closing date of the bar.

Use BarStart to get the opening date of the current bar.

Negative offsets, e.g. BarDate[-5], can be legitimately used to obtain the date of a future bar. This works even if the offset goes beyond the range of the currently loaded data file. For best results when future dates are required, a HolidayList should also be provided.
