yes Brandon, this is commonly known problem, which is caused by:
TS needs a tick *AFTER* the CLOSING time of a contract to
TRIGGER that "alert", i.e. to tell itself that the time has reached -
sometimes (rare on active markets) there is NO tick AFTER that time,
therefore is keeps sleeping till the next tick, which is the open and
is badly wrong.
Yes REOPEN does help the problem, but it might create others if your
looking at INTRADDAY trading - see BOUNCING TICKS in manual
You MIGHT be able to overcome that problem with adding the following
line to your codes
if time = Sess1EndTime -1 then begin
EXITLONG;
EXITSHORT;
end;
this will EXIT you EVERY day, but 1 minute earlier on all markets,
which have a SINGLE tick in the last minute, which is most likely -
ofcourse you will get out 1 minute earlier, but thats better than NOT
at all AND I believe on average that should "average out" <g>, i.e.
Better or worse fills...............
