    Correct way to detect market open and close time for current instrument?

    What is the correct way for an indicator to detect market open and close time for the current instrument which would be valid no matter in which world time zone the indicator is used? Thanks.

    Hello gbourque,

    Thanks for your post.

    A SessionIterator could be used to get the market open and market close times by calling ActualSessionBegin and ActualSessionEnd.

    SessionIterator.ActualSessionBegin obtains the session start day and start time converted to the PC's local time zone. SessionIterator.ActualSessionEnd obtains the session end day and end time converted to the PC's local time zone

    See the help guide documentation below for examples and more information.
