What coding do i need to close either a long or short position at the close of a particular bar such as the 11:00 Am bar?

Hi,

You can use the ToTime() method to compare the time of a bar. See the following Help Guide information.

Tried this code, for closing out at 4:00PM but it doesn't work?

if (ToTime(Time[0]) == ToTime(16,0,0) )
{
ExitLongLimit(Bars.CurrentBid);
ExitShortLimit(Bars.CurrentAsk);
}

Jlm,

I think you should try

if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= ToTime(16,0,0) )

It might be that a tick is received 1 second after 16:00 hours and at that moment barclose is calculated. Time has passed 16:00:00 and the condition is not met.

This is what I use...

if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= 150000)) do something...

That sounds right.
Will try.
Thanks
