Attention!

I have the setting to true to exit at end of day and I am using 2:30 as session close, because I want it to exit at 2:30, but the system won't exit a trade. The chart will stop, but no exit. Any thoughts? Also in the backtested results, it shows exiting at close as well, but on sim it doesn't exit.

dancorcal, your strategy should be exiting if you specify ExitOnClose = true. Can you post a screenshot of your strategy window? I've attached an example.

Hi Austin,

Happened again today. The session close time I entered came and the system did not exit. On backtesting the system it will show "exitonclose" at the 2:30 time I am wanting, but for live trading... it holds the trade. Here is the screenshot.

Any thoughts?

Please use TraceOrders = true and see what is happening under the hood around 30 seconds before 2:30.
