Definitions
In plain terms
It is normally safe for end-of-bar calculations once late corrections and revision policy are considered.
Technical
The record should retain interval endpoints, close flag, event time, sequence, source, correction status, and knowledge cutoff.
Scope
Closed does not always mean immutable; a provider may later correct the bar.
Examples
- A governed lesson uses Closed Bar only with declared inputs, timing, parameters, and edge-case behavior.
Common misconceptions
- Closed does not always mean immutable; a provider may later correct the bar.
