Amit, I don't get annoyed by people asking questions - after all,
this is the fuel that drives this great usergroup.
What does annoy me, is supposedly professional operators trolling for
freely-available MetaStock code here, and then possibly re-packaging
it for sale.
I also get annoyed by commercial sites that copy & paste complete
catch-phrases from other sites, and use them as their own. For
example, MetaStockTools.com 's "confidentiality and exclusivity
guaranteed" phrase may not be a trademark, but I'm sure that one
could find a different/better way to express this sentiment.
BTW, your site is not the only one guilty of this blatant copyright
breach.

This has little to do with your "How to Test and validate Current
Date" original question, no?
Ok, let's take it step by step.
Copy & paste this time-frame filter formula found at
http://www.metastocktools.com/#metastock :
===========
Time filter
===========
---8<----------------------------------
{Intraday time filter
Plots +1 signal within user-input time period
http://www.metastocktools.com }
StHour:=Input("start Hour",0,23,12);
StMin:=Input("start Minute",0,59,1);
EnHour:=Input("end Hour",0,23,14);
EnMin:=Input("end Minute",0,59,15);
start:=Hour()>StHour
OR Hour()=StHour AND Minute()>=StMin;
end:=Hour()<EnHour
OR Hour()=EnHour AND Minute()<=EnMin;
start AND (end OR (start AND Alert(start=0,2)))
---8<----------------------------------
The above indicator plots a binary signal using the day's start/end
times found in its user-inputs. It can be referenced as an intraday
filter to suppress signals that do not fall within the required time
period.
For example:
---8<----------------------
signal:=Cross(C,Mov(C,10,S));
filter:=Fml("Time filter");
signal AND filter
---8<----------------------
Any signals that fall outside the time filter's default time period,
will be suppressed.
Amit, if you need more help on this matter, I would suggest that you
consider employing the services of a competent & professional
MetaStock programmer.

bars, I have tried several different ways to find time using Hour()
