Re: Start and End Timing?

jmi88, see if this works for you...

inputs: Price( Close ), FastLength( 9 ), SlowLength( 18 ) ; variables: FastAvg( 0 ), SlowAvg( 0 ) ; FastAvg = AverageFC( Price, FastLength ) ; SlowAvg = AverageFC( Price, SlowLength ) ; if MarketPosition = 0 and Time > 800 and CurrentBar > 1 and FastAvg crosses over SlowAvg then Buy ( "MA2CrossLE" ) next bar at market ; if MarketPosition = 0 and Time > 800 and CurrentBar > 1 and FastAvg crosses under SlowAvg then Sell Short ( "MA2CrossSE" ) next bar at market ; if MarketPosition > 0 and Time = Sess1EndTime then Sell ( "MA2CrossLX" ) this bar at close ; if MarketPosition < 0 and Time = Sess1EndTime then BuyToCover ( "MA2CrossSX" ) this bar at close ;
I added the check for MarketPosition so that you only have one position open at a time. You can also hardcode the time instead of using Sess1EndTime.
