Indicator Description

Indicator author: Krog

Original Request -- indicator to specify closing day, to be more flexible than Week Closing (last day only)
Feature: can specify day-time range for exiting positions
Notes: use filters so you don't enter a position during the exit time. Or else, equity curve goes down quickly because it will open and close positions on each bar.
Please verify it works for you on a demo account before using on real account. If any bugs or unexpected behavior, please advise.
