Correct, this is not supported and it's internal implementation can change at any time. That being said, this method will do the following as of this post:

- Cycle through each open connection
- Cycle through each account within the connection
- Terminate any running strategies on the account
- Cancel any active orders on the account
- Close any open position on the account

Is there a ChartTrader equivalent of "NinjaTrader.Gui.SuperDom.SuperDom.FlattenEverything()", and which is not a Strategy command call but a command call within an indicator script, even if unsupported ? A kinda "NinjaTrader.Gui.Chart.Chart.FlattenEverything()". Or, better still ..... what is the command script for the ChartTrader "Close" button trigger ?

This will close your positions at 4:00pm

Code

                            
if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= 160000)

{

   if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long)

      ExitLong();

   else if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short)

      ExitShort();

}

If I implement this in a strategy, will it exit at a particular time in that Strategy and still allow it to run (the strategy)? Also, if I left the NT Flatten positions option checked (as a backup) to exit as well, will that still allow the strategy to keep running? Or, should one just use the above code in the Strategy and uncheck the NT Flatten positions? My goal is to close shortly before 4 pm est (say 30 seconds to a min before) and then have the strategy keep running but start back trading after 7 pm est. I already have the code for the time frames to enter the trades working perfectly...I just need it to exit at a certain time without turning off the Strategy...thank folks!
