Trade only certain times of day?

I have an EA that I want to trade only certain times of day. The EA is designed to trade only between 18 and 23 GMT and 0 to 9 GMT, but I can't seem to get it working correctly. I can get it trade between 18 and 23, but it won't generate any trades between 0 and 9. Here is part of the code:


------------------------------
if (UseHourTrade) {
if (!(Hour() >= StartHour1 && Hour() <= EndHour1) && !(Hour() >= StartHour2 && Hour() <= EndHour2)) {
Comment("Non-Trading Hours!");
--------------------------------


Anyone know what the problem could be? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, you can do like this:

double Trade=0; (before int start)
then

if((Hour()>=StartHour1&&Hour()<=EndHour1)||(Hour() >=StartHour2&&Hour()<=EndHour2)){
Comment("Let's Trade!)
Trade=1; (for example, and you put where the ea enter a trade, to enter only if Trade>0)
}
else {
Comment("Non-Trading Hours!");
Trade=0;
}

Maybe like this it work, i think.

Bye
