Excellent "Bar close advance [sec]" parameter. You say "The default value is 15 seconds." Do you mean that we can change the value? If so, how can i chang it?

A question is : does It really exit at 15:00 or 14:45 when i use exit hour? I see it is closed at BarTime 14:45, I guess it is closed at bar close time which is 15:00.

The strategy closes the positions at the end of the bar that starts at 14:45. It is virtually 15:00. However, in the real trading, teh experts use "Bar close advance [sec]" parameter in order to close at predefined seconds before the actual bar closing.

The default value is 15 seconds. It means that the expert sends a close order at 14:56:45. It leaves 15 seconds time for processing the order. This is done to be sure that the positions will be successfully closed before the market closes (in a case it closes at 15:00). If the close signal was exactly at 15:00, it would not be possible to execute the order.

Now everything is ok when I use exit hour and entry time indicators. And i see the strategy is really intraday trading.
   A question is : does It really exit at 15:00 or 14:45 when i use exit hour? I see it is closed at BarTime 14:45, I guess it is closed at bar close time which is 15:00.
   I use the strategy in another market which close at 15:00. When it is closed at 15:00, it is really cannot closed untill next day.
   Thanks.

For example, I can set Exit Hour = 15 in the Editor and then "lock" it in the Generator. I'm sure the Generator will include it unchanged in every generated strategy:

The Journal shows that the strategy closes the positions at close price of 14:45 bars. It is because the Close price of 14:45 bars is 15:00.

However, we also see that some strategies close the next day. The reason for that is because the strategy may open a position after 15:00 and the only possibility is to transfer is for the following day.

We solve that problem by setting an "Entry Time" indicator as an "Opening logic condition"

https://image-holder.forexsb.com/store/fsb-pro-entry-time-indicator-thumb.png

I set it to allow position opening within the 00:00 to 13:00 interval.

I also "lock" the Entry Time indicator in the Generator and it successfully finds a strategy on M15 chart.

Now all position open and close on the same day:

This is only one variant of using the Generator with locked indicators. FSB Pro has a great variety of indicators and it is possible to find other solutions.

Please attach your strategy in order to see what is going on with it.

2018-05-04 09：00  Open Short
2018-05-28 09：00  Close Closed

What's wrong ? I've tried a lot and the result failed.

Thanks for your help.
