Hi.
I'm deploying a strategy that targets the opening of one new international trading session, New York, or London for example. Due to complications with timezones and ever-changing daylight savings regulations, is there a pre-built system in Quantconnect that tracks the opening and closings times of all the trading sessions?
Any info would be helpful.
Thanks.

Hi Jean_Pierre_Snyman ,
Thank you for your patience.
QuantConnect/Lean doesn't have a built-in feature that tracks international trading sessions.
You can use CFDs trading hours as a proxy. For example, DE30EUR (Germany 30) trades from 01:15:00 to 22:00:00 Berlin time, and UK100GB from 01:00:00 to 21:00:00 London time.
Best regards,
Alex
