Hi SC, I use the above study to mark the high/lows of the opening 1hr range. I use a 2hr chart which begins/ends on the hour, every 2 hours. As the market opens at 9.30 est, the above study marks the entire range of the 2 hr candle as opposed to the actual range of the opening range (OR). E.g., Today at 9.50 the actual OR high was 3960, but the chart shows this higher based on the range of the candle. Is there a way to fix this without altering the start time of my chart? Thanks, Alan. |

In order to do what you want, you need to have a chart that is setup such that one bar starts at the time for which you want to capture the information and another bar ends at the time for which you want to stop the capture. There is not a way to capture intra-bar information. In other words, if you want to capture the High and Low from 09:00 to 09:59, then you need bars that start at 09:00 and end at 09:59. This could be 1 minute, 15 minute, 30 minute, or 1 hour bars. You also need to be careful with the Session Start Time such that it will also give you what you need, depending on your bar timing. For instance, if you have 30 minute bars, then you could have a start time of 08:30, but if you use 1 hour bars, then your Start Time would have to be on the hour, such as 08:00.

Thanks. I've managed to do what I'm after by using the "Daily OHLC" study. This extracts data from a separate 1hr chart which is set from 9.30 to 10.29.59.
