Problem with Date and time Constants

MrFriday · 2018-09-14T07:37:31+00:00

I’ve ran into a problem concerning the Constant Date and time and specific the Hour. When i try to create a simple formula it does not return the correct info. For example: IF (Hour[1] = 15) THEN signal = 1 ELSE signal = 0 ENDIF RETURN signal This returns nothing but when i change 15 to 16 it returns a signal at 15:00. It is getting weirder when i fill in 22:00 then it returns a signal at 21:00 and 22:00. Did anyone ran into this problem as well and where you able to fix it? ps i added some screenshots of the results.

Code is read at Close. To get the Hour of when the candle begins, you should use OPENHOUR instead.

Hello MrFriday. I see that this is your first topic – welcome to the forums.

When putting code in your posts it is preferred that you insert it using the ‘Insert PRT Code’ button to make it more readable for others. I have tidied up your post for you but if you could use the ‘Insert PRT Code’ button in future posts it would be much appreciated 🙂
