Globex Futures trading begins 5pm (Central time) previous day and ends 4:15pm the next day.

Current Omni Pilot does not let me set my RT futures trading hours compatible with CME Globex trading hours. The current trade start & end set up is only good for RT stocks trading. It would be greatly appreciated if you add flexibility for futures traders.

One aspect of FX support for 5PM to 5PM is that the current Omnitrader does not all days that cross midnight. So I can make $hr bars that start on 5:PM Sunday to 5PM Friday using session settings, but I get an error if I try to display daily bars, I should be able to define my days as desired, and then plot them.
