I have a problem with overnight positions. Actually I created constrain for that problem like "to time > 3pm & to time < 10pm". But I still got overnight positions.

Hi,
our problem is, that we want to close our positions in a stock future before the stock market is actually closing. For example, we want to close all our positions in a YM-Future, before the NYSE is closing - 4p.m.
Therefore we added the following condition to our strategies:
Code:if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= ToTime(21, 45, 0)) { ExitLong("", ""); ExitShort("", ""); }
Or ist there another automated way, to flatten all positions at a specific time?

Hi GerTrader,
You could use ExitOnClose and set the ExitOnCloseSeconds to match your desired exit time -> http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...itOnClose.html
NinjaTrader will use your set local time zone, maybe you want to check into this to make sure your code gets executed properly.BertrandNinjaTrader Customer Service

Yes, we know that NinjaTrader uses local time and therefore we used 21:45 for example, when we want the strategy to close all positions 3:45 p.m. EST.
But when we use for example the S&P 500 Future ES, Close is 3:15 p.m. CST (http://www.cme.com/clearing/clr/spec...tml?product=ES) respectively 4:15 p.m. EST. This means when we want to close our positions at 3:45 p.m. EST, we should set ExitOnClose = true; and ExitOnCloseSeconds = 1800; !?
But i'm wondering, why the condition set we used is not working !? Also, it does work while backtesting.
