[amibroker] Re: What's the easiest way to check for bar time?

["dotnetsdkforab" <dotnetsdkforab@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

this is almost perfect, but it will output the debug info at each AFL execution while in the bar at midnight...

To avoid this you have to block subsequent executions.

if (TimeNum() == 000000)  // run while in the midnight bar
{
    MyBlockingVar == LastValue(DateNum));
    if (Nz(StaticVarGet("MyBlockingVar"), 0) != MyBlockingVar)
    {
        // Do your stuff here. It will run once a day at midnight
        StaticVarSet("MyBlockingVar", MyBlockingVar);
    }
}
 
Regards,
