How to define when your strategy should enter and exit?

Strategy Entry and Exit time: Define when your strategy should enter and exit.

  • Entry and Exit time: You can define the entry time and the exit time for your Strategy by using this feature. You can enter and exit from the strategy from 9:16 AM to 3:29 PM.

  • No Re-entry: If your strategy or legs have re-entry conditions, but you want to stop re-entries after a certain time, you can enable this option.

Example:
Entry: 9:16 AM
Exit: 3:15 PM
No Re-entry after: 3:10 PM

If a re-entry condition gets triggered at or after 3:10 PM, the system will not take any further re-entries.

  • DTE (Days to Expiry): For the positional strategies, you need to define the how many days before the expiry do you want to entry and exit from the strategy

Example: Expiry Date: 18 Nov 2025
Entry: 2 DTE → Entry will happen on 16 Nov 2025
Exit: 0 DTE → Exit will happen on 18 Nov 2025

Example (with holiday): If 16 Nov 2025 is a holiday, the entry will happen on 15 Nov 2025 instead.
