It is an enum so use it like this:
 
Code
if(Time[0].DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Friday)

Alternatively you should be able to get an int value from the enum and test it like this:
 
Code
if((int)Time[0].DayOfWeek == 5)
This will test for Friday, the numbers start from Sunday == 0 to Saturday == 6.

Code
if (Bars.GetTradingDayFromLocal(Time[0]).DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Monday)
And days based on exchange, not your system time.
