Post From: Formula for buying at market close and selling at market open

I want to test a formula that would buy ES at the 4 pm close and sell pre open using the spreadsheet system for trading. I notice that the futures traders usually, maybe 90% to the time, use the off hours move to the eminis up and seldom down. I wish to back test this observation to see how profitable it would be.

I don't know what the formula would be to buy at close sell at open to input into the spreadsheet.K =(J42)=TIMEVALUE("16:15:00") L =(J42)=TIMEVALUE("09:15:00") ??

Appreciate any help.
