I'll take a stab at it, but I am not a forex trader. This just seemed like an interesting project.

 

I got the forex market open/closes from forexmarkethours

 

Depending on your location (I used EST for my example) you would set a cron accordingly. You might have to have some kind of exception handler to deal with holidays (null data sets coming in). But I came up with something like this:

 

0 8 1-31 1-12 0-5 /script

 

I'm not sure if this is right, but hope it helps!
