  Ive got much appreciated help from Roberto coding a DJ open-breakout strategy. I would like to get some help adding US daylight savings time or EU summer/winter time snippet code to this strategy.

   

  DJ open

  DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = FALSE IF Not OnMarket THEN MyExit = 0 ELSE c1 = 0 ENDIF // ADR Average Daily Range MyADR = average[20,0](Dhigh(1) - Dlow(1)) // IF (Time = 000000) OR ((Time > 000000) AND (Time < Time[1])) THEN MyHI = high MyLO = low c1 = 0 ENDIF IF Time <= 142900 THEN MyHI = max(MyHI,high) MyLO = min(MyLO,low) MyRange = MyHI - MyLO c1 = ((MyRange / MyADR) * 100) < x //75 ENDIF IF Time >= 142900 AND c1 THEN BUY 0.2 Contract AT MyHI + y * pipsize STOP SELLSHORT 0.2 Contract AT MyLO - y * pipsize STOP SET TARGET pPROFIT PL //40 SET STOP pLOSS SL //80 ENDIF IF MyExit = 0 THEN IF (LongOnMarket AND (close - TradePrice) >= t * pipsize) OR (ShortOnMarket AND (TradePrice - close) >= tS * pipsize) THEN //27.5 37.5 MyExit = TradePrice ENDIF ENDIF IF MyExit > 0 THEN SELL AT MyExit STOP EXITSHORT AT MyExit STOP ENDIF //GraphOnPrice TradePrice coloured(0,0,255,255) //GraphOnPrice MyHI coloured(0,128,0,200) //GraphOnPrice MyLO coloured(255,0,0,255) //Graph close - TradePrice //Graph c1 //Graph MyADR //Graph MyRange

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43

  DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = FALSE   IF Not OnMarket THEN MyExit = 0 ELSE c1 = 0 ENDIF // ADR Average Daily Range MyADR       = average[20,0](Dhigh(1) - Dlow(1)) // IF (Time = 000000) OR ((Time > 000000) AND (Time < Time[1])) THEN MyHI     = high MyLO     = low c1       = 0 ENDIF IF Time <= 142900 THEN MyHI     = max(MyHI,high) MyLO     = min(MyLO,low) MyRange  = MyHI - MyLO c1       = ((MyRange / MyADR) * 100) < x //75 ENDIF IF Time >= 142900 AND c1 THEN BUY       0.2 Contract AT MyHI + y * pipsize STOP SELLSHORT 0.2 Contract AT MyLO - y * pipsize STOP SET TARGET pPROFIT PL //40 SET STOP   pLOSS   SL //80 ENDIF IF MyExit = 0 THEN IF (LongOnMarket AND (close - TradePrice) >= t * pipsize) OR (ShortOnMarket AND (TradePrice - close) >= tS * pipsize) THEN //27.5 37.5 MyExit = TradePrice ENDIF ENDIF IF MyExit > 0 THEN SELL      AT MyExit STOP EXITSHORT AT MyExit STOP ENDIF //GraphOnPrice TradePrice coloured(0,0,255,255) //GraphOnPrice MyHI       coloured(0,128,0,200) //GraphOnPrice MyLO       coloured(255,0,0,255) //Graph close - TradePrice //Graph c1 //Graph MyADR //Graph MyRange

  Ive found this US daylight savings code in MOD:

  mod snippet

  // --------- US DAY LIGHT SAVINGS MONTHS ---------------- // mar = month = 3 // MONTH START nov = month = 11 // MONTH END IF (month > 3 AND month < 11) OR (mar AND day>14) OR (mar AND day-dayofweek>7) OR (nov AND day<=dayofweek AND day<7) THEN USDLS=010000 ELSE USDLS=0 ENDIF once shortStep = 0 once openStrongLong = 0 if not onmarket or (time <= 143000 - USDLS and time >= 210000 - USDLS) then shortStep = 0 openStrongLong = 0 endif //detect strong direction for market open once rangeOK = 50 once tradeMin = 500 IF (time >= 144000 - USDLS) AND (time <= 144000 + tradeMin - USDLS) THEN openStrongLong = close > open AND close - open > rangeOK ENDIF

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22

  // ---------   US DAY LIGHT SAVINGS MONTHS      ---------------- // mar = month = 3 // MONTH START nov = month = 11 // MONTH END IF (month > 3 AND month < 11) OR (mar AND day>14) OR (mar AND day-dayofweek>7) OR (nov AND day<=dayofweek AND day<7) THEN USDLS=010000 ELSE USDLS=0 ENDIF   once shortStep = 0 once openStrongLong = 0 if not onmarket or (time <= 143000 - USDLS and time >= 210000 - USDLS) then shortStep = 0 openStrongLong = 0 endif   //detect strong direction for market open once rangeOK = 50 once tradeMin = 500 IF (time >= 144000 - USDLS) AND (time <= 144000 + tradeMin - USDLS) THEN openStrongLong = close > open AND close - open > rangeOK ENDIF

   

  I dont get it to work, since results are exactly the same.

  I think this should the the correct snippet (for 2022):

  // --------- US DAY LIGHT SAVINGS MONTHS ---------------- // DSTstart = 20220313 DSTend = 20221106 IF OpenDate >= DSTstart AND OpenDate < DSTend THEN USDLS=010000 ELSE USDLS=0 ENDIF

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

  // ---------   US DAY LIGHT SAVINGS MONTHS      ---------------- // DSTstart = 20220313 DSTend   = 20221106 IF OpenDate >= DSTstart AND OpenDate < DSTend THEN    USDLS=010000 ELSE    USDLS=0 ENDIF

  you’ll have to change it every year.

  I think you should add USDLS, instead of subtracting it.

  Instead of using “-“, I think “+” would be more apppropriate.

  a

  // --------- US DAY LIGHT SAVINGS MONTHS ---------------- // DSTstart = 20220313 DSTend = 20221106 IF OpenDate >= DSTstart AND OpenDate < DSTend THEN USDLS=010000 ELSE USDLS=0 ENDIF

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

  // ---------   US DAY LIGHT SAVINGS MONTHS      ---------------- // DSTstart = 20220313 DSTend   = 20221106 IF OpenDate >= DSTstart AND OpenDate < DSTend THEN    USDLS=010000 ELSE    USDLS=0 ENDIF

  but there are no “-” in the code? sorry for not understanding
