We currently trading Futures with simulation mode on and we would like to flatten and cancel our order before 06:00:00 and after 14:00:00. We are programming for automated trading and we are entering into a BuyEntry. For some reason the Buy Entry is not flattening and cancelling after the 14:00:00. We have the following code. SCInputRef StartTime = sc.Input[7]; SCInputRef EndTime = sc.Input[8]; if (sc.SetDefaults) { StartTime.Name = "Start Time"; StartTime.SetTime(HMS_TIME(06, 00, 00)); EndTime.Name = "End Time"; EndTime.SetTime(HMS_TIME(14, 00, 00)); if (StartTime.GetTime() >= sc.CurrentSystemDateTime && EndTime.GetTime() <= sc.CurrentSystemDateTime) { sc.FlattenAndCancelAllOrders(); } The code compiles. Any help would be appreciated :) |

This code must be located outside of the sc.SetDefaults code block and it needs to be changed as shown: if (sc.CurrentSystemDateTime.GetTime() < StartTime.GetTime() || sc.CurrentSystemDateTime.GetTime() > EndTime.GetTime() ) { sc.FlattenAndCancelAllOrders(); } Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
