hi, could someone please help with how to close open position at the end of the week (i.e. market close on Friday??? ) I have been trying the below but not working: // Conditions to exit long positions c1 = OpenDayOfWeek = 5 c2 = CurrentTime = 163000 IF c1 AND c2 THEN SELL AT MARKET ENDIF It might also be possible with defparameters flatafter but that is only in format HHMMSS so doesn’t seem to allow for the day of the week Thanks in advance for any help !

I have been trying the below but not working:

// Conditions to exit long positions
c1 = OpenDayOfWeek = 5
c2 = CurrentTime = 163000

IF c1 AND c2 THEN
SELL AT MARKET
ENDIF

It might also be possible with defparameters flatafter but that is only in format HHMMSS so doesn’t seem to allow for the day of the week

Thanks in advance for any help !
