exit after 3:40pm

[hairymug]

I'm using the following code to place an exit after 4:40 (5 min interval) but it only works on occasion; Volume is enough to support exit at market...
What am I missing??

TIA!

curH = Time[0].Hour;
curM = Time[0].Minute;
if(( curH==15 && curM > 42))
ExitLong("LXe");

hairymug, are you sure you get any bars on that occasions to trigger the exit logic? As even if time would be up there would not need to be a new bar forming in NT's event based framework. If there was no trade / tick coming in > then no new bar would form until that would be the case.

What market and session template do you work with here?

Just solved the issue; I was giving the name of the signal instead of the name of the entry signal... when I changed it to the name of the entry signal, all worked as expected.

It seems that the "intelle-Help #2" for "exitLong" is incorrect as it has "signal name" as first arg and "entry signal" as second arg...

Since I usually rely on this, and it was swapped, it caused issues with all my exits.

More Info: when I added a signal name for arg2, the issue happened again... It looks like the help doc is incorrect as I can't seem to name my exit signal...

Thanks!
