Place order at specific time

[chrischongpdx]

Hi! Im trying to make a script to place an order 1 minute after open.

if ((Times[0][0].TimeOfDay == new TimeSpan(6, 31, 0)) && (Position.Quantity < 1))

{

EnterShort(Convert.ToInt32(DefaultQuantity), "");

}


But its not working.

What am I doing wrong?

Hello chrischongpdx,

Are you using a bar type that has that granularity for bars? You would need to use a 1 minute bar type for this type of condition to become true.

Yes, running it on the 1m chart and calculate on bar close.

Hello chrischongpdx,

You would need to use a Print to see why that is not true then.

Print(Times[0][0].TimeOfDay + " - " + Position.Quantity);
