[EquisMetaStock Group] trading day start (intraday formula)

["Fernando Santos" <ptc_man3@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

The ES futures opens for the new trading day at 4:30 and closes at 
4:15 on the next day.

How can I translate this in MSFL?

enhour:=21;
enmin:=15;

start:=hour()>sthour or hour()=sthour and minute()>=stmin;
end:=hour()<enhour or hour()=enhour and minute()<=enmin;

start:=start and alert(start=0,2);
end:=end=0 and alert(end,2);

start-end
The above formula give the signals for the start and end although 
something must be wrong with it since if I change the enmin to 20 he 
stops plotting the end signal.
Also, I cannot make a "flag" using that formula. I'm certain that the 
problem is with the time variables since we have the end hour lower 
than the start hour but I can't see how to resolve it.



Regards,
Fernando
