Can the Strategy Monitor be delayed one minute to assure the validity of the new data when using 5 minutes bars?

If you set your system clock "slow" by 1 minute, then the monitor will be delayed by 1 minute. I don't recommend this though. The S. Monitor will continue attempting to acquire the most-recent data bar for up to 60 seconds after the scheduled end of interval. If data are returned before, they won't be different if you had delayed 60 seoncds yourself.
What is your concern about the "validity of new data"?

When I use an external symbol ( or two ) often the external symbol data doesn't update correctly. It usually shows the previous external symbol bar repeated. This gives me an invalid trade signal. The symbols I use are large ETF's like IWM. If I wait one bar for my signals the data is correct.
