Here's a way to code a time filter:
Quote:
extern bool Use.Time.Filter = false;
extern string Server.Time.To.Start = "00:00";
extern string Server.Time.To.Stop = "00:00";
datetime start_time,end_time;
|
Then:
Quote:
//---- Time period calculation
start_time = StrToTime(TimeToStr(TimeCurrent(), TIME_DATE) + " " + Server.Time.To.Start); //---- Date and time to start
end_time = StrToTime(TimeToStr(TimeCurrent(), TIME_DATE) + " " + Server.Time.To.Stop); //---- Date and time to stop
//---- Is it time to trade
if(Use.Time.Filter && (TimeCurrent() < start_time || TimeCurrent() >= end_time)) return(0);
