Specifies when a strategy exits positions at market when the ExitRule condition is true (non-zero)
Choices
ThisClose - exits occur at the close of the current day
NextOpen -exits occur at tomorrow's open (default)
NextClose - exits occur at tomorrow's close
Notes
Using ThisClose implies an ability to generate realtime trading signals using live data. RealTest will not be able to generate Tomorrow's Orders for ThisClose exits.
ExitTime controls the time at which a market order is generated. NextOpen implies that a standard MKT order is placed before the open, to be filled at the open. NextClose implies that a MOC order is placed before the open, to be filled at the close.
