No you can't set multiple hours with GoodHourOfDay. So you can't use it. You have to use BadHoursOfDay, as you want to trade from 6:00 to 20:00, the bad hours are 0:00 to 05:00 and 21:00 to 23:00.

The documentation about BadHoursOfDay says :

The bit field. Each bit of this field corresponds to an hour of day (0 bit - 0 hour, ..., 23 bit - 23-rd hour). If the value of a bit is equal to 0, trade signals will be enabled during the corresponding hour. If the value of a bit is equal to 1, trade signals will be disabled during the corresponding hour.

So your binary number will be 111000000000000000111111. The highlighted 0 can be 1 depending if you want to trade from 20:00 to 20:59 or not, not sure about what you want. This number in decimal is 14680127. This is your input for BadHoursOfDay.

It's easy not ? I think the guy who creates this system is a little crazy

Is 15:00 to 15:59 include or exclude of the trading period ?

[Sabu John]

include

So what should be the binary number ? 0 = trading, 1 = no trading. First digit to the left is 23 hours, last to the right is 0 hour.
