Is there anyone here who has an EA type mq4, which has a timing setting. I want my EA to open positions at certain times, but have no timing setting. I want to ask for help from those of you who have an EA type mq4, just copy the timing settings, I'll insert them into my EA. Thank you for the help. ***

bool IsTimeOK = false;
if ( StartH > EndH ) 
  {
     if ( Hour() >= StartH || Hour() < EndH ) IsTimeOK = True;
  } 
 else 
  { 
     if ( Hour() >= StartH && Hour() < EndH ) IsTimeOK = True;
  }

if (IsTimeOK )
 {
   // you can trade here
 }

Hi JONI Spd, my five cents for MT4 would be to suggest you add this line in the ON INIT section of your EA:

EventSetTimer(60); // if you want to check every 60 seconds

Then add the below section, and code inside whatever you want to do every 60 seconds, or the frequency you setup above:

void OnTimer()

  {

  }

It seems that the OP wants to trade only at certain times of the day.

IF that is so, how will using the timer help?

Hi Keith, I see your point, actually Faeze Bakhshavesh showed the coding to check for "certain time of the day".  No worries.
