    It’s a choice. UpdateOnCLose is a feature you can you use or not. Maybe some people don’t understand it, but I understand it pretty well what it does. Sometimes I use it, but I deliberately omit it as well.
    The reason I sometimes don’t want updateOnClose is that I want my code be triggered more that the timeframe normally would do.

    For example I have a 15s scalping strategy, but I want evaluation before the bar closes. Then I put in a 5s Timeframe(sometimes without code in it). The result is that my 15s strategy get evaluated every 5 seconds.
    Again, this is a choice. It all depends on what kind of strategy you are running. For some strategies this pays, others not.

    Yes, I do same as  nevtek states above … if it gives better performance.

    However, I don’t use the Call function.

    I use CALL a lot, but I also don’t use indicators as really indicators always. But more as a function I can reuse somewhere else. So yeah, if that breaks, I will find out pretty soon 😉
