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: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

The fact that "Connect to Data Feed" is greyed out means that you are already connected. Are you having some kind of issue with your data? For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
