Hello Enrico,

Thanks for writing in to our Support team.

In order to close your position 60 minutes after entering into the position, you will need to save the time you entered into that position to a variable and then check to see if 60 minutes has passed and then exit.

For example:

EnterLong();

DateTime entryTime = Time[0];

//ToTime() converts the DateTime time representation to an integer representation
// Adding 1000 checks if an hour has passed since the time format is returned in HHmmss format
if(ToTime(DateTime.Now) > ToTime(entryTime) + 1000)
ExitLong();

Here is more information on the methods and objects I used in this example:
Time[0] - http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...eries_time.htm
ToTime() - http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...-us/totime.htm

Please let me know if I may be of any further assistance.
