Hi samuel.jus.cornelio,

You need to provide the complete cBot code and steps to reproduce this behavior.

Pani, the code is up there. Please, how can I write a line of code that makes my bot execute trades only from 5 am until 6 pm? Thanks man, you are the best

Hi samuel.jus.cornelio,

You can try something like the below

                var tradingStarts = TimeSpan.ParseExact("17:00", "hh\\:mm", null);
                var tradingStops = TimeSpan.ParseExact("18:00", "hh\\:mm", null);

                if (Server.Time.TimeOfDay >= tradingStarts && Server.Time.TimeOfDay < tradingStops)
                {
                    // trade
                }

I received 4 error messages in the code :

Error CS0029: It is not possible to implicitly convert the type 'System.TimeSpan' to 'double'

Error CS0029: It is not possible to implicitly convert the type 'System.TimeSpan' to 'double'

Hi samuel.jus.cornelio,

The message clearly describes the problem

Error CS0029: It is not possible to implicitly convert the type 'System.TimeSpan' to 'double'

Your variable should be of type TimeSpan and not double.

Hi samuel.jus.cornelio,

I am sorry but I am not sure what do you need. I provided an example above. Here it is again

                var tradingStarts = TimeSpan.ParseExact("17:00", "hh\\:mm", null);
                var tradingStops = TimeSpan.ParseExact("18:00", "hh\\:mm", null);

                if (Server.Time.TimeOfDay >= tradingStarts && Server.Time.TimeOfDay < tradingStops)
                {
                    // trade
                }

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
