how to get session's end hour without SessionIterator

[dadarara]

is there a way to get exactly the end of day hour without creating SessionIterator ?

Maybe by reading the XML file corresponding to your desired trading hours template in...
C:\Users\Username\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\templates\TradingHours\

Maybe I should have said that I need it inside the Strategy code. and the problem is to account for summer time changes... (I am not trading in USA time zone )

You can read the XML file within your code but you need to create the function to do it but why not use the SessionIterator ? or you could also use a plain text file and enter the end of the day for a year and read it using ninjascript commands.

Check this video which explains how to use the sessionIterator:

Hello dadarara,

Thanks for your post.

SessionIterator should be used in your script to get the ActualSessionEnd.

ActualSessionEnd return the session's end date and end time converted to the user's configured Time Zone.

See the help guide documentation below for more information.
