    Reset 'return' on the next day's open

    Hi.

    I created a simple condition

    if ( profittarget >=500)
    return;

    this should stop trading if profit target for the day is above or equal to 500.

    While backtesting, I reached this profit target of 500 on day 1 of my historical data, so it completely stopped backtesting data of next days...

    Hence I felt the need to reset this 'return' at the start of next day's electronic market open. I'm talking about Crude Oil futures. Please inform how to do that.

    Hello karthik007,

    Thank you for your post.

    Use Bars.FirstBarOfSession before the profittarget check to return. For example:
    Code:
    if(Bars.FirstBarOfSession)
    profittarget = 0;
    
    if(profittarget >= 500)
    return;
    For information on Bars please visit the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...s/nt7/bars.htm

    Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
