Another feature request - No trade in market close hours-minutes

Post by gu00hero »

Dont know if this one is possible to do, but since you are experts you know better. This feature is very important for night scalpers. In backtests night scalpers can exit a trade during market close minutes everyday. But in live trading this cant happen, so this makes the results in real life very different sometimes.

Maybe a way to do this is to code clearing the tickdata in this market close minutes. Just an idea.

Hi Gu00hero,

Can't you just change your strategy to exit your trade prior to the market close and/or prevent opening trades during closing time to ensure your results are as real as possible?

Regards.
