Perhaps I've answered my own question. Check this out.
Set up another variable:
TradeDays = Day() >= 1 and Day() <=5;
Then I use this in the moving average??? But where?
RngMinAvg = MA(ValueWhen(TradeDays,DlyRngMin) , 10);
or
RngMinAvg = MA(DlyRngMin , ValueWhen(TradeDays,10));
I don't know, I've given up coding for today and haven't plugged these in to test them. I don't think it would work.

Yes, the program is taking any trading which occurs on Sunday night and holidays and including this in the range. I need to exclude non-trade days from the moving average range and every attempt to do so has found me yelling and screaming at the computer.

My attempt below was to use the TimeOpen and TimeClose variables to restrict the O,H,L,C values I picked up along the way. This indeed works but when I try to create a moving average on a daily time frame it includes Sundays and Holidays in the 'Range' value of the moving average argument even though the trades occur outside of trading hours (Sunday) or do not trade the entire day (holidays).
