Optimize session trading hours

New comment

Hi all,

Wich is the way to go optimizing session range? i mean, how i can optimize sessionStart sessionEnd, could you give some example code?.

Best,

At the beginning of your start() procedure put something like :

if (Time[0]sessionEnd) return(0);[/PHP]

That will prevent execution at times outside the desired session

You could use broker or local time too for that purpose but in that case back-testing might become problematic. To use broker time do it the following way :

if (TimeCurrent()sessionEnd) return(0);

and for local time use this :

[PHP]if (TimeLocal()sessionEnd) return(0);
