Where can I get the time filter code? And where, within an EA's code, should I place it? Thanks...

It is just a part of it ...
 
There are a lot of the public indicators (incl the indicators which were made by the famous coders, for example - Mladen), and there are a lot of the discussion threads about it.

Just use search function on the top right corner for example.

Look at volatility based trend indicators, or sar based indicators.
A level of Fibonacci is around there.
In a range, I usually don’t treat the first close outside the boundary as a confirmed breakout. I wait for volatility to expand and then watch whether a retest can hold outside the range. If price moves back inside within the next one or two candles, I consider it a failed break and stay out. I also draw the range from several reactions rather than one unusual wick. Session timing matters too; breakouts during quiet hours have been much less reliable for me.
