I'm trying to use m_EveningSession to determine if a TPO profile is an evening session. However, it always returns 0. In the following example, 0 is the first profile index and represents an intraday session. 1 profile index represents an evening session. However, the following profile_1.m_EveningSession always returns 0. I have confirmed this using the message log. n_ACSIL::s_StudyProfileInformation profile_1; sc.GetStudyProfileInformation(1, 1, profile_1); SCString Msg; Msg.Format("profile_1_m_EveningSession: %d", profile_1.m_EveningSession); sc.AddMessageToLog(Msg, 1); I expect m_EveningSession to return 1 if the TPO profile is an evening session. Could you verify this expected behavior and if so, reproduce my result? Thank you for looking into this! Mark Date Time Of Last Edit: 2024-08-27 17:33:35

I updated the code for clarity by removing an irrelevant line.

The only case where this variable would be true is in the case of a Profile that is for the evening session when using this functionality: Time Price Opportunity (TPO) Profile Charts: Displaying Separate Profiles for Day and Evening Sessions Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

The variable m_EveningSession does not return true when the profile is for an evening session. |

After further testing, I'm feeling confident that this is a bug.

Workaround for anyone that runs into this in the future... n_ACSIL::s_StudyProfileInformation profile_1; sc.GetStudyProfileInformation(1, 1, profile_1); SCDateTime profile_1_DateTime = profile_1.m_StartDateTime; SCDateTime StartTimeOfEveningSession; StartTimeOfEveningSession.SetTime(sc.StartTime2); if (profile_1_DateTime.GetHour() == StartTimeOfEveningSession.GetHour()) { // profile_1 is an evening profile } |

We do see that there is an issue and we will develop a solution for this. It looks like that particular variable was meant to be implemented but never was.
