Every "n" ticks explanation

[Tulefi]

I want my EA at the start of a new period to count 1 tick before calculating trade open conditions. How exactly does "every n ticks" work? When the EA gets to it, does the EA then count the number of ticks specified before moving on down? I am thinking that if I have a "once per bar" before it, and specific 1 tick, the EA will wait for the new bar, wait for a tick to happen, then continue. Please advise.

Every tick the block counts, so if you have it set t0 3 then it will count to 3 then activate.

Got it - thank you.
