How to set up a custom study to update on every level 1 market update (bid and ask updates) rather than just updating on every tick?

Not possible, chart update is controlled by update interval, it has min value of 10ms.

General Settings Window: Chart Update Interval (Global Settings >> General Settings >> General >> Update Intervals)

Is there no way to update on anything other than a time interval?

So my understanding is, and please correct me if I am wrong, when one of the select conditions is met (such as new bid/ask data is received), the study will be called on the next chart update interval?
