Overnight trading hours

[cstangor]

I'm looking for a daily trading hours template that displays only overnight. I've made one but it doesn't work properly on daily bars (seems to only print Mondays). Is there a supplied overnight template I can use?

Thanks.

You might want to use minutes instead of days for the data series.

Do you mean to force NT to construct the daily bars from minutes? I forget how to do that.

For example, you could set a chart's data series to 405 minutes instead of 1 day for the RTH session. Each day of 24 hours has 1440 minutes, so you could probably use that or some subset with your custom template.

Do you mean that the selected trading hours won't apply to daily charts?

Difficult issue here... thanks for your help. I'm working on it.

Hello cstangor,

This is correct, daily bars come fully formed with an open high low, close, and timestamp and with most providers cannot be changed with a session template.

Using 1440 minute bars would allow for NinjaTrader to build the chart according to the trading hours template using minute data.
