FAQ #130

What is First trade after exchange open and Last Trade before exchange close setting ?

This can be set on the “create strategy” page under “Advance Strategy Settings” to xxx minutes after exchange open and xxx minutes before close. If you have large positions and also have tranching, it is prudent to not trade very near to closing time as only part of the orders would then be filled. To avoid that you can use the above setting. 

With this, the strategy conditions are not checked in this buffer period even when the markets are open.
