Exitonclose

[aldenstout]

I use the exitonclose in the strategy analyzer for backtesting purposes. I find it easier than coding times for each strategy. However, I have discovered that the emini S&P contract exits at 4:15 (CST) instead of 3:15(CST)

How do I fix this?

This exit time will be based on your session template. If you're only looking to trade during the regular trading hours you will want to set the session template to CME US index futures RTH (closing time of 3:15pm Central)

If you do want to include the electronic trading hours as well you would need to create your own session template that ended at 3:15 instead of 4:15
