    od=0
Thisyear=2023
d1=Year=Thisyear and Month=1 and day=2
d2=Year=Thisyear and month=1 and day=26
d3=Year=Thisyear and month=4 and day=7
d4=Year=thisyear and month=4 and day=10
d5=Year=thisyear and month=4 and day=25
d6=Year=thisyear and month=6 and day=12
d7=Year=thisyear and month=12 and day=25
d7=Year=thisyear and month=12 and day =26
if( d1 or d2 or d3 or d4 or d5 or d6 or d7)  then
od=1
Endif
Return od

    I am using the above with an algo on the ASX ,which opens at 10AM AEST on trading days ,to forbid trading on closed days

    26th Jan is a closed day in Australia but my algo placed a trade and I found that

    od does not set to 1 until 10.58 when I run the closed days indicator on a 1 min chart

    What should I change in my closed days indicator

    It would seem that the new day starts at GMT 0:00 everywhere in the world

    Not really because too many settings deal with this (unfortunately). For example India which is at a quarter of an hour offset from us, which I can’t wrap my head around anyway.

    Your last d7 should be d8, but won’t be the issue.

    I readily believe you because of experiences in similar reporting (so go figure). Unless others have more sensical advices, I would attempt trials and backdoor solutions. Hence :
    You are most probably right, but now what.
    (no credits for me)

    Are you with IG?  Although all over the world, IG may prefer a standard time to start the day hence GMT 0:00 everywhere in the world?

    Just a few thoughts before my coffee wakes me up!! 🙂

    India is UTC + 5:30, Netherlands is UTC+1, UK is UTC+-0
