Non Trading Times'

Define the times when the strategy will not trade

The Non-Trading Times node allows you to define the times when the strategy will not trade. This can be useful if you want to avoid trading during certain times of the day, such as when the market is closed or when there is low liquidity.

How to use the Non-Trading Times node

The times for the Non-Trading Times node are defined in the format HH:MM. The engine considers specified times to be in UTC.

So for example, you might think that the volume is generally lower before the UK and the US sessions start, so you can specify non-trading times as 01:00 - 07:00. Also, you might want to avoid trading around the close of the UK session, so you can specify 15:40 - 17:40.
