  I am getting scan/screen alerts in real time and cannot find the option to get them on bar close only.

  Using a 5 minute timeframe I get multiple alerts if condition is true but before the bar closes

  The manual says this is possible:
  The scans can be done in real-time or on the close of the current bar with the following timeframes:

  Please could you help me find this option

  Tank you

  SCREENERS run live, so to scan for candles already closed, all you need is to use a reference to to the previous value with [1], such as close[1], Rsi[14](close[1]) etc…
