Trading Days

Trading Days decides which days of the week new trades are allowed on. Uncheck Saturday and Sunday and a weekend trade is turned away without ever reaching the exchange.

It is the cheapest rule in the bot - a day of the week and a list, with nothing to fetch and nothing to calculate - so it runs before the Daily Loss Limit and before anything reaches the exchange. Only your plan's limits are checked earlier.

Where to find it

Main menu → 📊 Risk Management → 📅 Trading Days, or send /trading_days.

📅 Trading Days ────────────────── ✅ Monday ✅ Tuesday ✅ Wednesday ✅ Thursday ✅ Friday ❌ Saturday ❌ Sunday 🕐 UTC Offset: UTC+2 Mode: 🚫 Reject Trades Status: ✅ Enabled Tap a day (or field) below to update it. 📖 How this panel works9:35 PM

Every day is a button. Tapping one flips it and redraws the panel, so ✅ and ❌ in the list above always match the buttons below them.

It starts on, with weekends off

Trading Days is enabled on a new account, with Monday to Friday allowed and Saturday and Sunday off - so out of the box a weekend trade is turned away. Checking a day back on takes effect immediately.

The Status toggle at the bottom is a way to suspend the whole rule without losing which days you had chosen. Unlike the Daily Loss Limit's switch it has no precondition, because any set of days, every day included, is a valid state to be enabled in.

There is no minimum

Nothing stops you unchecking all seven. While the feature is enabled that blocks every new trade, on every day, with no other sign that it is doing so than the rejections.

The two modes

Mode	What happens on a day you excluded
🚫 Reject Trades	The signal is turned away before anything reaches the exchange, and logged.
🔔 Notify Only	The trade is placed as normal. You get one warning message.

There is no third mode here. The Daily Loss Limit's Cap Risk has no meaning for a day-of-week rule - a trade cannot be made smaller until it is Tuesday.

A rejection reaches you as a Trade Rejected notification, naming the day that caused it:

Reason: Trading day not allowed (Saturday is not an allowed trading day).

In Notify Only the same sentence arrives as a 🚫 Trading Day Not Allowed message, finishing:

Notify-only mode is active, so new trades will still be placed.

That message is sent once per local day, on the first trade that trips it, so a day you have chosen to trade through does not fill the chat. Its once-a-day counter is its own - a Daily Loss Limit warning on the same day never silences it, and it never silences one.

Which day it is

The day is worked out in your local time, from the offset on this panel.

✏️ Update 🕐 UTC Offset Current: UTC+2 Reply with your UTC offset, e.g. 2, -5, or 5.5. Must be a real offset between -12 and 14. Changes all your bots and your web profile. Reply to this message with the new value. 📖 How this panel works9:35 PM

Reply with a number of hours. Half-hour zones work, and so do the handful of other real-world fractions - 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 5.75, 6.5, 8.75, 9.5, 10.5, 12.75 and 13.75, plus -9.5 and -3.5 on the negative side.

This is shared with the Daily Loss Limit and your web profile

The prompt says so itself. There is one clock per person, not one per bot: this button, the 🕐 Set UTC Offset button on Daily Loss Limit, and your time zone on the website all write the same value. Change it here and the day your loss budget resets on moves with it, and so does your web profile's zone; change either of those and the boundary between Sunday and Monday moves here.

The buttons exist only so that submitting a new offset returns you to the panel you started from.

The practical consequence is at the edges of the day. A trade at 23:30 UTC on a Sunday is a Monday trade for an account on UTC+2, and would be allowed by the panel above. A city chosen on the website follows daylight saving, so its offset can shift the boundary across the year; a number typed here directly does not, unless it happens to match what your city is on right now.

Accepted values

Setting	Range	Default
Days	Each of the seven, allowed or not	Monday to Friday; Saturday and Sunday off
🕐 UTC Offset	A real offset between `-12` and `+14`	`UTC+0`
Mode	Reject Trades / Notify Only	Reject Trades
Status	Enabled / Disabled	Enabled

The offset prompt states its own rule:

Reply with your UTC offset, e.g. 2, -5, or 5.5. Must be a real offset between -12 and 14. Changes all your bots and your web profile.

It only blocks new positions

A day you excluded stops trades being opened. It does not freeze what you already hold.

Add To Position, Mark Legs Breakeven and Update Take Profit all work on any day, allowed or not. A position that is already open is already risking your money, and refusing to let you manage it because it is Sunday would make the rule dangerous rather than protective.

Stop losses and take profits are held by the exchange, so they trigger on excluded days like any other. Trading Days filters what the bot places, not what the market does.
