It works for me.
Suggest you post (only that part of) your code that you believe is not working.

Thanks, but it seems this doesn't work during backtests, am I wrong? When I use this during backtests, it seems the backtest is still using the time series from the interval of the backtest settings, say 30 minutes, even though the series that I am accessing in the backtest is sandwiched between calls to SetTimeFrame/RestoreTimeFrame calls, having set it at 1hr. Is it known that backtests will ignore this function?

I would like to check the signal on every minute bar, but my signals are based on indicators that are setup with hourly bars.
