ExitOnSessionCloseSeconds doesn't work with conditional input

[UltraNIX]

Hello,

I wanted to also optimize ExitOnSessionCloseSeconds, with not just default 30 seconds, but XOSC * 60 (variable multiplied by seconds in a minute).

Yet it doesn't work, no matter what number I input at XOSC, it always exits at the same time.

Can this be manipulated? And if default method is not able to achieve it, maybe there's a way to get session end time value, so I could check, like Time[0] > EndTime - XOSC *60, then it would exit.

Hello UltraNIX,

Thank you for your note.

Are you seeing this in a backtest, or on real time data? ExitOnSessionCloseSeconds is a real time only property and wouldn't have any effect when running the strategy on historical data, such as in a Strategy Analyzer backtest or on historical data on a chart.

That being said, it is possible to modify this based on a variable. I'm attaching an example script that will override any user input setting for this in State.Configure by using a variable * 60.

This will only work in real time, so you can either test on a live chart using the Sim101 account or using Market Replay data with the Playback connection.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

Yes, I was trying to run it on Historical data. I will try to test it on Market Replay data. Thanks.
