I think I'm following what you're trying to do, but let me make sure.... you want the live strategy to test the current day bar every 5 minutes vs. tick by tick.... right?

First, I'm not sure how much different that would be than tick-by-tick... like is it a material enough difference to be worth the effort?

My second thought is to just put some time parameters in your code... like have the code execute only every 5 minutes. There are 390 minutes in the trading day, that would 390 / 5 = 78 conditions.
