Refer to the following for how to flatten positions for a chart at a specific time:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: A >> Flatten And Cancel at Set Time

There is nothing built into Sierra Chart itself that control the hours for trading. But if you are using a custom study, then you can control this with the following function:
ACSIL Interface Members - Functions: sc.SetTradingLockState()
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
