end of market

[franatas]

It is possible to access the market closure so that in cases where it is a holiday in the United States, you can close operations before premature closing

Hello franatas,

Thanks for your post.

SessionIterator could be used to get the time the market starts or ends at. It could also be used to test if a specific date is a defined trading day.

See the help guide documentation linked below for an example and more information.

You might also want to review the indicator "Holiday Tomorrow Indicator" in the NT user apps.

CancelOrder(OrdenEntrada); EntradaOk = true; OrdenEntrada = null;
}

if (OrdenEntrada != null && Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long)
{
SubmitOrderUnmanaged(0, OrderAction.Sell, OrderType.Market, Position.Quantity, 0, 0, "", "CIERRE DE OPERACIONES");
OrdenEntrada = null;
EntradaOk = true;
}

if (OrdenEntrada != null && Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short)
{
SubmitOrderUnmanaged(0, OrderAction.Buy, OrderType.Market, Position.Quantity, 0, 0, "", "CIERRE DE OPERACIONES");
OrdenEntrada = null;
EntradaOk = true;
}
I understand that it would be fine so that 5 minutes before closing the operations would close if there were any. I have tried it in the analyzer and it does not remove those operations from the statistics,

Hello franatas,

Thanks for your notes.

In the code you shared I see you are passing 'OrdenEntrada' into the CancelOrder() method.

The CancelOrder() method requires that you pass in an order object to the method to cancel that specific order.

Is 'OrdenEntrada' an order object in your script?

If so, are you assigning the order object to 'OrdenEntrada' in OnBarupdate() in your script?

Here is a reference sample demonstrating how CancelOrder() is used in NinjaScript: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...thod_to_ca.htm

See this help guide page for more information about CancelOrder() and sample code: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ancelorder.htm

See this help guide documentation for more information about OnOrderUpdate(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...rderupdate.htm

Further, when a strategy is not behaving as expected then it is necessary to add debugging prints to the script to understand exactly how the logic is behaving.

In the strategy add prints (outside of any conditions) that print the values of every variable used in every condition that places or cancels an order along with the time of that bar.

Prints will appear in the NinjaScript Output window (New > NinjaScript Output window).

Also, enable TraceOrders which will let you know if any orders are being ignored and not being submitted when the condition to place the orders is evaluating as true.

Below is a link to a forum post that demonstrates how to use prints to understand behavior.

private void AssignOrderToVariable(ref Order order)
{
if (order.Name == "LARGOS" || order.Name == "CORTOS" || order.Name == "LARGOSTendencia" || order.Name == "CORTOSTendencia" && OrdenEntrada != order)
OrdenEntrada = order;
}
Yes, in fact, if I put the same code so that it closes orders 5 minutes before 11:00 p.m. in Spain, which is the market closing time, it closes them perfectly, but here it is not doing it, that's why I ask if it does in the analyzer. It should work the same as where I'm testing it

Hello franatas,

Thanks for your notes.

In the code you shared, I see you are calling SubmitOrderUnmanaged() to submit a market order.

The CancelOrder() method cannot be used for market orders, this method is used for canceling limit orders that are working and have not filled.

You would need to wait for the market order to fill and then submit an exit order to exit the position at that specific time.

If you are trading near the end of the session and see that market orders are delayed in being filled due to volume, you could use limit orders instead and could call CancelOrder() for the limit order to cancel the limit order at that specific time.
