Set your ExitOnClose to true and then change your chart session to end at 5pm.

and if i don't want each time i run my backtest or strategy change the end chart session...
i write that code and it doesn't work... my market close at 22:00... in want my backtest close at 18:00 so 14400 seconds before the end...

protectedoverridevoid Initialize()
{
// close at 18:00
ExitOnClose = true;
ExitOnCloseSeconds = 14400;
}

I have each time when i run my backtest change the hour of my market session... and why it doesn't not take my script automatically ?

Not following you exactly. ExitOnCloseSeconds is not a backtest property. That is only used in real-time when you actually have seconds granularity. In a backtest it runs off of session end times.
