I use a binary options strategy with 1h-candels and TimeFrame=2.
Because of broker restrictions I want to exclude trades [18:00-22:00[
The following code snippets do the exclusion correctly.
With the code block 1) in my strategy I get different results in backtesting than with 2)

1)
Code
vars Price = series(price());
int h = hour(0);
if (h>18 && h<22) return;


2) (quite different results:)
Code
int h = hour(0);
if (h>18 && h<22) return;
vars Price = series(price());


Why?

Found some explanation in Zorro-help regarding "series()"

"Therefore series calls cannot be skipped by if or other conditions that change from bar to bar (see example below)."
I do not understand the explanation but this must be the reason.
