Like any system regardless of bar period by the time you get a Close price the market has moved on and this is now history. consider all the time delays involved in getting the data, processing it, then placing your order, and then the order being carried out. The only time you get a chance to place an order with some time to spare is during pre-open stages of the market while no trading is occurring. AB can test this type of system, all you need is the data, but I doubt you could trade it the same.
