Trading Hours Template Input to Indicator

[kevinenergy]

Is there any way I can have a trading hours template as an Input to an indicator. So that when I add it to a chart, I can have a dropdown list of Trading Hours templates?

Hello kevinenergy,

You can do this by using the following property:

protected override void OnStateChange()
{
    if (State == State.SetDefaults)
    {
        tradingHours = TradingHours.Get("CME FX Futures ETH");
    }
}


private TradingHours tradingHours;

[NinjaScriptProperty]
[Display(Name = "Trading Hours", GroupName = "Parameters", Order = 0)]
[TypeConverter(typeof(TradingHoursDataConverter))]
public string TradingHoursString
{
    get { return tradingHours.ToString(); }
    set
    {
        if (Bars != null && value == TradingHours.UseInstrumentSettings)
            value = Instrument.MasterInstrument.TradingHours.Name;

        tradingHours = TradingHours.Get(value);
    }
}

Please note if you do not set a default you will get an error, the SetDefaults part is necessary.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
