here the code:

// MQL5
MqlDateTime mTime;
input int t_start = 8;  //Start
input int t_end   = 17; //End

bool time_filter() {
bool hour_limit = true;
if(mTime.hour >= t_start && mTime.hour <= t_end) hour_limit=false;
return(hour_limit);
}

Programing language is very complicated for me
It is the reason I like manual trading.

You could always get someone to program your manual strategy for you or look for EA's that are a good fit for you, and that way you dont have to be at the computer all the time.
