I have a ASCIL code as given below :

How I can modify it to trade between a specific Start Time and End Time that is given by me?






// The top of every source code file must include this line
#include "sierrachart.h"
// For reference, refer to this page:
//
Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL)
// This line is required. Change the text within the quote
// marks to what you want to name your group of custom studies.
SCDLLName("Custom Study DLL")
//This is the basic framework of a study function. Change the name 'TemplateFunction' to what you require.
SCSFExport scsf_TemplateFunction(SCStudyInterfaceRef sc)
{
  // Section 1 - Set the configuration variables and defaults
  SCInputRef Entry_Time = sc.Input[4];
  SCInputRef Exit_Time = sc.Input[5];
  if (sc.SetDefaults)
  {
    sc.GraphName = "Template Function";
    sc.AutoLoop = 1; //Automatic looping is enabled.
    sc.AllowMultipleEntriesInSameDirection = true;
    sc.MaximumPositionAllowed = 10;
    sc.SupportReversals = false;
    sc.SendOrdersToTradeService = false;

    sc.CancelAllWorkingOrdersOnExit = false;
    sc.AllowOnlyOneTradePerBar = true;
    sc.MaintainTradeStatisticsAndTradesData = true;
    return;
  }
  SCGraphData StudyData;
sc.GetStudyArraysFromChartUsingID(2, 2, StudyData);
SCFloatArrayRef RSI = StudyData[3];
  SCGraphData StudyData1;
sc.GetStudyArraysFromChartUsingID(2,1, StudyData1);
SCFloatArrayRef upper = StudyData1[0];
  SCFloatArrayRef middle = StudyData1[1];
  SCFloatArrayRef lower = StudyData1[2];

  if(sc.GetBarHasClosedStatus() == BHCS_BAR_HAS_CLOSED)
  {
    float open = sc.BaseData[SC_OPEN][sc.Index];
    float high = sc.BaseData[SC_HIGH][sc.Index];
    float low = sc.BaseData[SC_LOW][sc.Index];
    float close = sc.BaseData[SC_LAST][sc.Index];
    float currRSi = RSI[sc.Index];
    float uppboll = upper[sc.Index];
    float lowboll = lower[sc.Index];
    bool buycondition = close < lowboll && currRSi < 5;
    bool sellcondition = close > uppboll && currRSi > 95;
    if(buycondition){
      s_SCNewOrder NewOrder;
      int Result = 0;
      NewOrder.OrderQuantity = 1;
      NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_MARKET;
      NewOrder.TextTag = "Market Order";
      NewOrder.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_GOOD_TILL_CANCELED;
      NewOrder.Stop1Offset = 50*sc.TickSize;
      NewOrder.Target1Offset = 70*sc.TickSize;
      Result = static_cast<int>(sc.BuyEntry(NewOrder));
    }
    if(sellcondition){
      s_SCNewOrder NewOrder;
      int Result = 0;
      NewOrder.OrderQuantity = 1;
      NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_MARKET;
      NewOrder.TextTag = "Market Order";
      NewOrder.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_GOOD_TILL_CANCELED;
      NewOrder.Stop1Offset = 50*sc.TickSize;
      NewOrder.Target1Offset = 70*sc.TickSize;
      Result = static_cast<int>(sc.SellEntry(NewOrder));
    }
    }
  // Section 2 - Do data processing here

Did you take the time to look through the example code that Sierra provides in the ACS_source folder?
