Indicator problem

Elsborgtrading · 2017-03-08T14:32:51+00:00

Hi traders. I am wondering why this condition is never true on Fridays, but is on Sundays? here the TF is 1 Day atr = averagetruerange[10](close)*0.5 tradeingweek = dayofweek c1 and tradeingweek then DRAWTEXT("True", barindex, high[1]+atr*10, Dialog, Standard, 12) COLOURED(0,0,255) DRAWARROWDOWN(barindex,high[1]+atr*3) COLOURED(128,128,128) endif Return If it’s put in a proorder as a trade condition it will trade on Fridays Cheers Kasper

Hi traders.

I am wondering why this condition is never true on Fridays, but is on Sundays?

here the TF is 1 Day
```
atr = averagetruerange[10](close)*0.5
tradeingweek = dayofweek <=5
x1=2
c1=(highest[x1](close))

if high>c1 and tradeingweek then
DRAWTEXT("True", barindex, high[1]+atr*10, Dialog, Standard, 12) COLOURED(0,0,255)
DRAWARROWDOWN(barindex,high[1]+atr*3) COLOURED(128,128,128)
endif


Return
```
If it’s put in a proorder as a trade condition it will trade on Fridays

You should give a try with this instruction instead: OpenDayOfWeek

Hi Nikolas and thanks.

Okay so that solved the Friday. Problem is that the Proorder is correct and will trade Friday if these condition are used. With the change -Pro order will still trade at candle start Sunday @23:00 (DAX)- and then every day 01:00 Monday-friday. but the indicator will not show on Sunday. It seems like condition in pro order and Indicator is not resolved equally. Could there a bug in the Indicator section?

These are my findings:

this will trade Sun@23:00, Mon-Fri@01:00 if conditions are used in Proorder, but indicator will not show on Sun.
```
tradeingweek = OpenDayOfWeek <=5 
```
```
atr = averagetruerange[10](close)*0.5

x1=2
c1=(highest[x1](close))

if high>c1 and tradeingweek then
DRAWTEXT("True", barindex, high[1]+atr*10, Dialog, Standard, 12) COLOURED(0,0,255)
DRAWARROWDOWN(barindex,high[1]+atr*3) COLOURED(128,128,128)
endif


Return 
```
With the first code- Proorder will trade like before- but Indicator will not show on Friday or Sunday
```
tradeingweek = dayofweek <=5
```
