Trading Hours Template for Night Session Only

[TAJTrades]

I was trying to create a Trading Hours Template for the ES Night Session Only. That would be form 5:00 PM (Centrtral Time) to 8:30 AM (Central Time) the next morning.





So, 5:00 PM to 8:30 AM is 15.5 hours or 930 minutes





It is currently 10:00 AM and the last bar on the chart is still building?

Where did I go wrong?

Thanks.

Hello TAJTrades,

What is the bar time of the last bar on the chart?

What is your time zone?

If you reload all historical data on the chart, does this correct the chart?

Chelsea,

The Data Box is showing 16:00:00 for the last bar on the chart. The Price is still updating.

Any idea as to the timeframe for the next release?

That'd be good time for sure.

Unfortunately, we cannot provide estimates of release dates.

Update:

The Trading Hours Template is working as expected today. I loaded 14 days of data. I am lost and confused.

Maybe check on your side.

Working with this Trading Hours Template this morning (7:00 am EST) and I noticed something odd. The Numbers on the Chart are Bar Time Stamp using:

        protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
                 //    Bar time Stamp Hour
                sb.Append(Time[0].Hour.ToString());
                sb.Append(":");
                //    Bar time Stamp Minute
                sb.Append(Time[0].Minute.ToString()); //    Bar time Stamp Minute
            
            Draw.Text(this, "Time " + CurrentBar.ToString(), sb.ToString(), 0, Low[0] - (Low[0] * .01)  );
        }​ 

Notice the odd one?





I am thinking this has more to do with the data feed not triggering some type of marker and not so much the Trading Hours internal code.

Hope this helps.

Hello TAJTrades,

If the bar is the April 18th bar, this may be different due to the holiday Good Friday.

The bar in question has a date of 4/17/2025 according to the Data Box. But you may be right. will look into it later.
