Hi I have a strategy that I want you to make me a purchase at a specific minute and second hour.

Could you tell me what the correct code to insert into NinjaScript? If you are now 13:25:45 sec and you make me want to purchase at 13:38:14 sec, what would be the correct code?

Thanks and regards.

You can do it several ways

1. the most correct is with a on time event, that triggers exactly at that time

2. you can check on every incoming tick, if the time has arrived, the disadvantage
is in iliquid market, the order will be trigger after that time, after the first trade

regards,
Ron

Thanks Ron, for your help.
The truth is that the strategy makes you just need to run the second, for example at 12:21:17 sec

With the template you sent me I get no place think of it, could you tell me how it should be placed correctly with the data I have in my strategy? This is what I have.

protected override void Initialize()
{
MyTimeSpan = new TimeSpan(8, 0, 0);
CalculateOnBarClose = true;
SetStopLoss("", CalculationMode.Ticks, Stop, false);
SetProfitTarget("", CalculationMode.Ticks, Target);
//SetTrailStop("", CalculationMode.Ticks, Trail, false);
}

/// <summary>
/// Called on each bar update event (incoming tick)
/// </summary>
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
if(Time[0].TimeOfDay == MyTimeSpan)
{
EnterLongStop(Close[0] + 5 * TickSize);
}

The problem with your code is that it will only check when a new bar is formed.
you are subscribing the even 'onBarUpdate'

You could alternatively also subscribe the onMarketUpdate, that means your
code would then be check for every change in the bid/ask or any trade, at that
moment, you simple check the current time and if necessary fired an order

// [Description("trailing stop")]
// [GridCategory("Parameters")]
// public int Trail
// {
// get { return trail; }
// set { trail = Math.Max(1, value); }
// }
#endregion
}
}

I think what you want to do is something like this :
(i didn't debug the code, sorry if typos)

 

Code

protected override void OnMarketData (MarketDataEventArgs e) { if (e.MarketDataType == MarketDataType.Last) { if (String.Compare(e.Time.ToString("HHmm"),"0800") >0) EnterLongStop(e.Price + 5 * TickSize); } }

Ok thanks Ron,
but then My TimeSpan is the time I will introduce, where I have to tell the program if MyTimeSpan time = current time to do my operation?

Greetings.

It is possible to check for a time (like 15 min before and after oil report on Wednesday)
Or you can check for duration since entry of the trade (too slow trade kill it

Both logic you can see in a BOT that i have published in the past for educational purposes:

Ron's Alpha Trade Method (ATM) BOT Please feel free to play with it, i didn't touch the code since last year, i just run +/- 12 months of CL tick data to produce the results

Sorry I do not understand what you mean,
thank you.
