How do the platform handle the summer time change with my ProOrder strategies?

FAQs - Category: Automated trading

When daylight saving time (DST) occurs, ProRealTime automatically adjusts the market hours for each instrument according to its exchange rules. This means that if your strategy is using the default market hours, it will continue to operate correctly without any manual adjustments.

However, if you have custom trading hours defined, you might need to verify your settings to ensure smooth execution during the time change.

Solution

  1. If Your Strategy Uses Default Market Hours:

    • No action is required.
    • The platform automatically updates the trading schedule to align with the new time.
    • Your strategy will continue running based on the adjusted market hours.
  2. If Your Strategy Uses Custom Trading Hours:

    • Check if your settings are aligned with the new summer time hours.
    • If necessary, stop the strategy, define the chart custom trading hours to default market hours and relaunch the strategy.
  3. How to Check Your Strategy’s Time Settings:

    • Open your ProOrder strategy.
    • Look at the time zone in the strategy’s properties.

By ensuring your strategy is using default market hours, you avoid any disruptions due to daylight saving time changes.
