How do the Time Check and Days to Expiry nodes work in FYERS Automate?
The Time Check node evaluates conditions based on the current time.
The Days to Expiry node evaluates conditions based on the number of days remaining until an options or futures expiry.
Time Check
The Time Check node compares the current time with the configured time.
| Operator | Evaluates to true when |
|---|
| < | The current time is before the configured time. |
| > | The current time is after the configured time. |
Example: If the configured time is 10:00 AM:
- At 9:30 AM, < 10:00 AM is true.
- At 10:30 AM, > 10:00 AM is true.
Days to Expiry
The Days to Expiry node checks whether the number of days remaining until the selected options or futures expiry exactly matches the configured value.
Example: If the configured value is 2 days:
- 2 days remaining → Condition met
- 1 day remaining → Condition not met
- 3 days remaining → Condition not met
For Time Check, set the required time and select < or >.
For Days to Expiry, select the options or futures expiry to evaluate and enter the required number of days.
