Change Opening Hours

  I have created a script for trading the US TECH 100-CFD. I use SMA Daily Charts as entry and exit criteria. Is it possible to create a code that uses the opening hours of the underlying market, which are 09:30:00-22:00:00, instead of the CFD opening hours for backtesting and automatic trading?

  The indicator TRSMA at https://www.prorealcode.com/prorealtime-indicators/time-range-moving-averages-simple-exponential-weighted-trsma-trema-trwma/ will do the job, as you can set the desired time range. Outside that time range it remains flat.

  That command is not available for strategies.

  If you want to embed that code into your strategy then you have to use these lines, choosing your preferred settins (Periods, StartTime and EndTime):

  Periods = 20 StartTime = 090000 EndTime = 180000 i = 0 TRSMA = 0 FOR j = 0 TO 3000 IF opentime[j] >= StartTime AND opentime[j] <= EndTime THEN TRSMA = TRSMA + close[j] i = i + 1 IF i = Periods THEN BREAK ENDIF ENDIF NEXT TRSMA = (TRSMA / Periods) IF TRSMA = 0 THEN TRSMA = close ENDIF

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18

  Periods   = 20 StartTime = 090000 EndTime   = 180000 i = 0 TRSMA = 0 FOR j = 0 TO 3000    IF opentime[j] >= StartTime AND opentime[j] <= EndTime THEN       TRSMA = TRSMA + close[j]       i = i + 1       IF i = Periods THEN          BREAK       ENDIF    ENDIF NEXT TRSMA = (TRSMA / Periods) IF TRSMA = 0 THEN    TRSMA = close ENDIF

  then use variable TRSMA to know the value.
  Alternatively, you can call the indicator using the CALL statement, as follows:

  TRSMA = CALL "TRSMA - Time Range SMA"[20, 90000, 240000]

  1	TRSMA = CALL "TRSMA - Time Range SMA"[20, 90000, 240000]

  changing the values ​​20, 90000 (it would be 090000, but leading zeros are ignored) and 240000 as you like.
