I have been using the AIG 3 min system with
Tradebullet. It is working fine, but does not exit end of
day. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make it exit
end-of-day? Thanks to all in advance for any advice.
in the TS forums you can find EOD strategies to download, or at
least the code all written ready to insert. OR you can find
an easy language programmer --TS gives a list and there are many
more -- to write a simple EOD exit strategy that can be used with
any entry satrategy.
or just manually exit your shares EOD. I mean personally
even if I run errands during the day and leave my strategies
running, I always make sure that I'm home for the last 10 min of
the day to make sure that the strategies exit. You can
manually exit your trade the last couple of min.

I do not know about Tradebullet. But if you are
using Tradestation to give Tradebullet the commands for exit
at end of day you have two options. You can add a start and end
time to the code and it will exit at the end of the bar after the
time you set. For example, if you are using a 3 minute bar, it
would exit 3 min before the close. The second option is to make a
custom session time and use SetExitOnClose in code. It will exit at
whatever time your session ends. You can make that one exit 1 min
before end of day. If you really want to exit at the very end of
the day it has to be done with a Limit Order but that is a bit
more complicated.
