Will appreciate if anyone can provide me with simple code that will close a trade at the close of a timeframe e.g. at the end of the day or at the end of week before markets close.

Thanks in advance.

Inserted Code
  
bool IsTimeToTrade()
{
   bool OK = true;
   

   if (DayOfWeek() == 5 && TimeCurrent() >=  
        StrToTime(TimeToStr(TimeCurrent(), TIME_DATE) + " " + FridayClose )) OK = false; 
   if (TimeCurrent() >= StrToTime(TimeToStr(TimeCurrent(), TIME_DATE) + " " + TradeEndTime )) OK = false; 
     return(OK);
}
This shows how to handle the Friday closing and the daily closing. FridayClose and TradeEndTime are external int and are broker times in 24 hour integer format. 19 = 7PM broker time.
