code below will get you started (change times to
093000 and 094500, since I am in Europe). This code assumes that indeed the
bars exist at the required times. For heavily traded stocks this should work. It
takes 5000$ positions.
SetBarsRequired(10000,10000);
SetOption("MaxOpenPositions", 1 );
PositionSize = 5000;
SetTradeDelays(0,0,0,0);
timebar = TimeNum();
Buy = (timebar == 153000); BuyPrice = O;
Sell = (timebar == 154500); SellPrice = O;
SetChartOptions(0, chartShowDates);
GraphXSpace = 0;
Plot(C,"C",1,64);
PlotShapes(IIf(Buy,shapeUpTriangle,0),colorWhite, layer = 0, yposition = BuyPrice, offset = 0 );
PlotShapes(IIf(Sell,shapeDownTriangle,0),colorYellow, layer = 0, yposition = SellPrice, offset = 0 );
SetOption("MaxOpenPositions", 1 );
PositionSize = 5000;
SetTradeDelays(0,0,0,0);
timebar = TimeNum();
Buy = (timebar == 153000); BuyPrice = O;
Sell = (timebar == 154500); SellPrice = O;
SetChartOptions(0, chartShowDates);
GraphXSpace = 0;
Plot(C,"C",1,64);
PlotShapes(IIf(Buy,shapeUpTriangle,0),colorWhite, layer = 0, yposition = BuyPrice, offset = 0 );
PlotShapes(IIf(Sell,shapeDownTriangle,0),colorYellow, layer = 0, yposition = SellPrice, offset = 0 );
