SessionStartTime

[SystemTrading]

Again TradeStation SessionStartTime which would return in local time the session start time. Is there an equivilant in NT?

Unfortunately not, as this will be tied to your chart Session Start / End time settings (chart properties).

How do I access the chart start time via NinjaScript?

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

You can use FirstBarOfSession and when it is true, save out the session start time.

OK, how do I access the session end time?

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

Although not perfect if you are charting after market data, you can use BarsSinceSession to get how many bars goes to the first bar of the session and then add one to it to get the last bar of the previous session. Then just Time[] it to get the time.

Josh,
Thanks for the quick reply. What I was looking at was a way to stop an indicator if within, say, 5 minutes of the end of the session. Something like:

if(Time[0] < Session.EndTime - 300)
do something
else
do something else

I can't, however, figure out how to access the Session End Time value, even though it is in the Properties.

snaphook,

This is not supported, but you can try Bars.SessionEnd.
