timer support and IB

rami

@backtrader Somehow I get timer notification before the time arrived(marked bold), what issue can be?
you can see difference with (when parameter, and data timestamp).

   def __init__(self):
        print("Init ")
        self.add_timer(when=datetime.time(16,30), #bt.timer.SESSION_END,
            offset=datetime.timedelta(minutes=10),
            repeat=datetime.timedelta(),
            weekdays=[]) # , tzdata=self.dnames['MKTD'])   #tz.timezone('America/New_York')


    def notify_timer(self, timer, when, *args, **kwargs):
        print('strategy notify_timer with tid {}, when {} cheat {} feed stamp {}'.
              format(timer.p.tid, when, timer.p.cheat,self.data.datetime.datetime(-1)))

strategy notify_timer with tid 0, when 2019-04-30 16:40:00 cheat False feed stamp 2019-04-29 15:00:00
NEXT
strategy notify_timer with tid 0, when 2019-05-01 16:40:00 cheat False feed stamp 2019-04-30 15:00:00
NEXT

@backtrader, have a couple of questions:
how to make algo skeleton, that can trade, not on a day close, but on ticker price at a specific time like 15:30?
To make resampling with 30min, and wait for a specific time to validate and execute?
How I can get a historical daily price this specific time 15:30 (for example for 200 days)?

thank you in advance.
