    Try
    Set 'EntriesPerDirection' to 1 (single trade) ,if using strategy builder.

    https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/en-us/?using_a_time_filter_to_limit_t.htm

    session iterator(); A whole list to choose from
    OrderTypes() nt8. it depends on what type of trade you want use for the strategy. market order, limit, .....

    TradeCollection()
    protected override void OnBarUpdate()
    {
    // Print out the number of long trades
    Print("The strategy has taken " + SystemPerformance.AllTrades.Count + " trades.");
    }

    Enterlong()
    Example ,EnterLong(int quantity)

    rotected override void OnBarUpdate()
    {
    if (CurrentBar < 20)
    return;

    // Only enter if at least 10 bars has passed since our last entry
    if ((BarsSinceEntryExecution() > 10 || BarsSinceEntryExecution() == -1) && CrossAbove(SMA(10), SMA(20), 1))
    EnterLong(5, "SMA Cross Entry");
    }

      Hello r3n3v,

      Thanks for your post.

      You can control your strategy timing by using a time filter. The time filter provides an entry condition that basically says the time must be between this time and that time, that you specify.

      If you are coding directly in Ninjascript, here is a link to a working example: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...to_limit_t.htm

      If you are using the strategy builder then you can check the help guide example, "How to create time filters" https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...on_builder.htm
