prattpot Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Is there an EA which can execute a trade at a specified time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxNewbie Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 There are many EA's that will execute based on day of week and/or hours open close. Some even have Open1/Close1. Open2/Close2. I can't think of one right now but if you look around you will find. Either look at the MQ4 settings of each one you examine to see options for trade times or load the ex4 file on MT4 and press F7 and look at the options box. Also, if you make your own EA using say EA Builder you can select these blocks of code (day filter and hour filter). So all is possible. I hope this helps and sorry (again) that I can't think of one off the top of my head right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prattpot Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Thank you for your response. I am not after anything too flash. Essentially something that can open a nominated size order at the precise hour and minute. Preferably based on the computer clock rather than the Broker's Market watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FxNewbie Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Surely you have a trade plan to execute at a particular time? Some criteria other than just the Or are you looking for a a News type EA that places Pending Orders at a particular time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prattpot Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Cheers for your response. I am asleep when some news items initiate so wanted something to initiate a trade and I have an ea that can trail. It is merely something I wish to try as an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murtamad Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hi Freddy, I'll venture my 2 cents here: If the server time as shown in MT4 Market Watch window is 2:57 and the time shown on my PC is 8:57, we would input 5 for the TimeZOne parameter. If my PC time is 1:57 then we would input -1. Is that correct, Freddy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
