Next Bar Date

[guilhem]

Hello,

I am using a strategy with a primaray (Daily) and secondary (minute) bar chart.
I want to know during the current day/bar, what will be the next trading day date. I am unable to find out how to get this :-(

Can someone help ?

Thanks

Hello guilhem, thanks for writing in.

You can use a SessionIterator object to find the next trading session, see GetNextSession here:

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/?getnextsession.htm

There is an example on that page, and also a working example in the platform called "PriorDayOHLC".

Please let me know if you have any questions on this material.

Thanks Chris

I did see this and tried to use it but when i Print(iter.getnextsessoin(Time[0], true))
I get a True... That's nice but I d rather get a date :-)

Could you show me how to get the date ?

Thansk as always for the great support

Hello guilhem, thanks for your reply.

The main SessionIterator page has a full example of using SessionIterator:

https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...oniterator.htm

GetNextSession returns true if it's able to successfully calculate the trading session, to get the actual DateTimes, you would do this after calling GetNextSession:

DateTime tradingDay = sessionIterator.ActualTra dingDayExchange;
DateTime beginTime = sessionIterator.ActualSessionBegin;
DateTime endTime = sessionIterator.ActualSessionEnd;.

A more straight forward way would be to simply add a day to today's date e.g.

var today = Time[0];
var tomorrow = today.AddDays(1);

Please let me know if I can assist any further.
