Allow Trading Only During Time Range (read/write): TRUE Start Time For Allowed Time Range (read/write): 18:00:00 End Time For Allowed Time Range (read/write): 15:49:59 Flatten Positions And Cancel Orders At Set Time (read/write): TRUE Time For Flatten Positions And Cancel Orders (read/write): 15:49:59 Service log says ignored signal because of J28/J85. J28 was blank and I got no fills then I set J28 to 0 and got no fills. If I set J85 to FALSE I get fills so what's wrong with these settings? All I want to do is be flat from 3:50pm est to 6pm est. Please help! |

It is not possible until version 2120 which is yet to be released, to use those particular start and end times which you have which are reversed: Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Start Time For Allowed Time Range (read/write) [J86] This is also not reliable because it is just too close to the end time for allowed trading and there may not be any opportunity to flatten: Time For Flatten Positions And Cancel Orders (read/write): 15:49:59 We recommend using some minutes earlier, just to be completely safe.

Thinking about this some more, this may not be correct: This is also not reliable because it is just too close to the end time for allowed trading and there may not be any opportunity to flatten: But still we recommend not putting it right at the ending time of allowed trading.

Instead of using J85/J86/J87, you could use this formula in J28: =AND(FRACTIME(J41)>TIMEVALUE("00:00:00"),FRACTIME(J41)<TIMEVALUE("15:50:00")) To allow exits after 15:50:00, but disallow entries, include a reference to J8: =AND(J8=0,FRACTIME(J41)>TIMEVALUE("00:00:00"),FRACTIME(J41)<TIMEVALUE("15:50:00")) Now you can flatten at a later time in J29: =FRACTIME(J41)>=TIMEVALUE("16:00:00") |
