Day trade hours performance

[Trader Thor]

I can only trade e-mini's during day trading hours. How can I limit my strategy(s) to plot only during those hours and more importantly only show trades generated during those hours when I look at the strategy's historical performance? Thanks.

Hello Trader Thor,

Thank you for your note.

To limit your strategy from taking positions outside of day time hours, i.e. trade only during primary session, you could add a time filter condition to your code. This could be done using the strategy wizard or written in the editor.

I have provided a link to the strategy wizard youtube, bookmarked at 28:20 which goes into setting up a time filter.
