Bar Count for Backtesting

3866
Hello!

Not much special about this script; you can use date & time, or bar count, to ascertain the number of bars in a time period for backtesting.

This script can be used in conjunction with large scripts incorporating complex intricacies that won't load on 20,000+ bar data sets.

If your script's load time transcends the TV allotted load time - use this script to quickly determine the number of bars in the data set.

Through trial & error you should be able to determine the approximate number of bars your script can execute on without exceeding the imposed time limit!

Enjoy!
