Don't take trade on Friday after 3:30

[561timw]

I would like help with the code needed to prevent trading on Friday after 3:30. My straegy runs from Sun at 6:00 until it closes out any open positions on Friday at 3:30 and I want to prevent new trades from kicking off Friday after 3:30.

Thanks

Hello 561timw,

Here is a line that may used to check for this:
bool myTradeFilter = Time[0].DayOfWeek != DayOfWeek.Friday && ToTime(Time[0]) <= 153000;

Please see this link which can help working with DateTime objects:

if (Time[0].DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Friday && ToTime(Time[0]) >= 153000 && ToTime(Time[1]) < 153000 ) NinjaTrader.Gui.SuperDom.SuperDom.FlattenEverything();

This will take you flat and close down you strategy in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, the command is not a supported function, so be warned that it may stop working if NT decides to nix it any time in the future.
