Enter Order on Close of the Session

[zerosum666]

Hi

I need to automate an order entry at the close of the session, which ideally would be right the opposite of the "ExitOnClose" instruction.

I am not finding a solution that effectively triggers the order everyday at the (close - n) seconds.

I am wondering if you can shed some light on what is the best approach to handle this?

The code runs in 10 minute bar aggregation and I want the order to be sent in the last few seconds of the session end, exactly in the same way the "ExitOnClose" instruction handles it.

Thanks

Hi zerosum666,

Unfortunately there is nothing built in to monitor for end of session. It must all be custom coded. You could work with time. If you are working historically, you can refer to bar's time stamp with Time[0]. For real time, the C# property DateTime.Now gets the time for your PC clock. Either of these can be checked for an entry condition.
