Wrong trade exit during night in ProOrder (ProBackest correct)

Richard · 2019-08-23T09:24:05+00:00

Hi, I’m doing my first steps with ProOrder and managed to get it running on Demo. However I stumbled over an issue with trade exits over night. ProOrder (or the broker system) seems to cancel my running trades at 01:00. This is not intended and also not executed by ProBacktest where the trade runs further according to the code. Please have a look on the attached screen. I have set individual trading times from 08:00 to 22:00. Did I miss some secret button or similar? Thanks & best regards Richard

Custom trading hours on chart and not in ProOrder?

No, trading hours are both the same. I forgot to mention that both of these trades reached their exit trigger at 21:55 and therefore are expected to be closed with the open of the next bar.

In my current set up that would be 08:00 on the next day (which works in ProBacktest). If ProOrder would have no custom trade hours the trade would be expected to close at 22:00…

Hi, you could graph your indivual trading hours or create an indicator to check if this part of your system is correct.
