First trade after exchange opens and Last Trade before exchange close setting

Take Trades

This parameter has two inputs

First trade after exchange open

Last trade before exchange close



This parameter checks when is the first time and last time the Entry/Exit conditions are checked.

For example: If you want the first trade to be after 930AM, you can set First trade after exchange opens to 15mins.

For example: If your strategy has set the 'Universal Exit' to trigger at 15:25, you need to set last trade before exchange closes to 2 mins, so that conditions are checked till 1528, if you set it to 5mins, the universal exit still may not trigger as it would stop the condition check at 15:25:00 and will not provide enough time for condition checking
