Time exit on tick chart

[Gepetto]

Suppose I work on a tick chart and that, following a given indicator, I have entered a buy order with its own profit and sell stop targets.
I would like to exit the trade at market if none of these targets are reached within 15 minutes.
Is it easily programmable?

Gepetto, you could store the time of trade entry and then send a market order exit, if the current time is greater than your stored trade entry time + the offset you've chosen.

Questions

Suppose we have the following code
protectedoverridevoid Initialize()
{
SetProfitTarget("", CalculationMode.Ticks, 8);
SetStopLoss("", CalculationMode.Ticks, 12,true);
CalculateOnBarClose = true;
}
protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
{
if blabla
{EnterShort();}
if (ToTime(Time[0] >= 80000)
{ExitShort();}
}
Now I have an exit based on time... what about stoploss & profit target? Automatically canceled?

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Yes, correct - if a position is closed by another strategy generated exit those would be cancelled.

Manipulating ToTime(Time[0])

Suppose ToTime(Time[0])=074600.
If I had 15 minutes, I would obtain 080100.
How to derive the minutes (46) in order to know when to add 15 or substract 45.
I first thought at
h=Math.Floor(ToTime(Time[0])/10000);
m=Math.Floor(ToTime(Time[0])/100)-100*h;
but I have a problem concerning classes (Math.Floor does not perform correctly).
Any help?

[Gepetto]

OK now

Problem solved.
I had to write it in 2 lines:
hh=ToTime(Time[0])/10000;
hh=Math.Floor(hh);

Quite tricky but now it works...

Ok, great you have it working for you.
