Make the strategy enter and exit positions at an specific time

[Miguel Sangregs]

Hello,

I was wondering if somebody knew how to make a system enter a long/short position (or do any other thing) at an specific time. For instance, I enable a system at 12:00 and I want it to enter a long position at 12:30 and then exit at 13:00.

I am new to ninja trader and it´s driving me mad!

Thank you in advance,

Miguel

miguel,

First off, welcome to the forum!

Here is a sample :

            if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= ToTime(12, 30, 0) && ToTime(Time[0]) <= ToTime(12, 31, 0)
            {
                EnterLong(DefaultQuantity, "");
            }

            if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= ToTime(13, 0, 0))
            {
                ExitLong("", "");
            }

I would suggest attending our webinar on Automated Strategy Development : http://www.ninjatrader.com/webinars
