DislikedSome Questions ....
When Exactly does the Market OPEN for the Week DAY and TIME.....?
the default is Sunday at 00:00, I ned the GMT time and day to make this work.
Same for Market Close on Friday.....
Also I think that there will be some variances depending on the broker you use... I have one broker that closes at 2pm and on my other platform it does not close until 4:30.
But either way this is irrelevent because The market is technically open 24/7 as long as there is a linked CPU that has money to sell. This is what cause these gaps on the weekends... So our best bet is to come up with a a Time on Friday that we all agree is the end of "Normal" trading hours. And do the same for Market Open....

Oanda is the earliest opening Broker I know of and they open at 12:00pm Sunday Pac time, then a large portion of brokers seem to open at 2:00pm Pac time, and then the next and I think its the last group of brokers open 3:00pm Pac time. 3:00pm Pac time is when I generally set my orders because the gaps tend to be largest at that time.Ignored
