hi there,
I have a little problem.
my indicator uses the call curtime() to get the server time and also uses LocalTime() to get my time.
PHP Code:
TimeDifference = CurTime() - LocalTime();
My intention is to use these together to work out the start of the day from my perspective.
Now it works perfectly when the markets are open but when they are closed it does not because CurTime() returns the time of the last tick.
Now I can see two possible solutions to this:
1. is there another call i can make to get the real time of the server? For example....
PHP Code:
TimeDifference = GenuineServerTime() - LocalTime();
2. can i test to see if the market is open. If it is then use curtime and store off the difference in a GLobal varibale for later reuse if the market is not open:
PHP Code:
if (MarketIsOpen())
{
TimeDifference = CurTime() - LocalTime();
GlobalVariableSet("TimeDifference",TimeDifference )
}
else
{
TimeDifference = GlobalVariableGet("TimeDifference");
}
Can anyone help me fill in the missing links for either option for me or come up with another suggestion.
thanks
