help with time entry and time exit

hi,

I dont know how to code for ex.

If i want to make an entry 10.00 and exit 17.09 . How do i code this if i have the strategy on days? Do i need to change in to minutes?

Please can someone help me with this.

Thanks

Are you saying that you want to enter the market at 10:00 am and exit at 5:09 pm?

If you're going to use a reference to a bar's time to figure out when to enter or exit, I would say that you'd have to shift to a 1 minute timeframe. There may be a way to reference your computer's clock tick-by-tick as a day bar is created in realtime, but I'm not familiar with those.

EDIT: The command to do this would be "CurrentTime"

You could use intrabarordergeneration on a day bar and check currenttime with each tick to see if it matches the criteria you want.

[intrabargeneration=true]
if t[0]=XXXX then
buy this bar at close
if t[0]=YYYY then
sell this bar at close
