when its closed its closed - for whatever reason, neither TS nor YOU
will be able to trade - current example this octover DJII -550 or so
- trading CLOSED 1 hour or so EARLY - any MOC orders been left in
the dark ! - how should TS know, when you dont know and the market
itself

Im only thinking in S&P terms so 1615-1 = 1614, sorry
youre right - however if a tick would come in at 1400 that would
cause the TRIGGER to trigger !!!!

looks nice - havent run it yet, as above stuff is good enough for S&P
for me <g>
