A forex-tsd buddy was working on a project that needed to filter trading by 3 separate timeframes. Answering his question prompted me to make this little indicator that displays a comment telling you if it is currently within your preset trading hours.
The hours to trade can be set either in the code directly, or through the indicator settings window. Of course, all hours are in relation to your broker’s server.
Current limitation: it only works on whole hours, no minutes.
Possible future: I can make it work with objects, rather than a comment, giving more flexibility on placement and opening up the possibility of putting it in a separate indicator window. Let me know if that would be usefull!
