I want to use schedule_function twice, calling two different functions at different schedule.
Here func_A and func_B are two functions:
schedule_function(func_A, date_rules.every_day(), time_rules.market_open(hours=1))
schedule_function(func_B, date_rules.every_day(), time_rules.market_open(hours=1, minutes=20))
However, when func_B is called, schedule_function keeps only calling func_B and stops calling func_A.
It works normally if func_A and func_B are exactly the same though.
@Igor,
when func_B is called, schedule_function keeps only calling func_B and stops calling func_A
I do not see that problem.
# buy_at_open - sell_before_close
def initialize(context):
schedule_function(buy_at_open, date_rules.every_day(), time_rules.market_open())
schedule_function(sell_before_close, date_rules.every_day(), time_rules.market_close(minutes = 10), True)
def buy_at_open(context, data):
print("-----buy_at_open-----")
def sell_before_close(context,data):
print("-----sell_before_close-----")
Can you share the full code with the problem?
Thank you,
Found what the problem was:
Func_A had another function in itself defined: func_C. Since func_B was a copycat of the func_A with some minor edit, the func_C was called unexpectedly. Renaming func_C into func_D in the func_B fixed the problem.
I have another question about schedule_function. If someone please help?
Is there a way to let the function func_B (scheduled later within one day than func_A) run only if func_A did not return any order at this day?
In other words: how do I skip func_B at this day if conditions of func_A were met at the scheduled time for func_A within this day?
