Hi, How can I add TPO value area lines on intraday chart where the session start at Globex market open which is 18:00:00 but I want to draw the TPO value area lines are generated from the RTH session of the previous day. Right now, if I put the Input of Based on Day Session Only to Yes in TPO Value Area Lines Study to get the RTH TPO Value Area Lines values, I need to change the Session Start time to RTH session which will change the start of my intraday chart to the RTH session start time rather than Globex session start 18:00:00. Therefore, is there a way that I can still use my intraday chart that start at 18:00:00 but getting TPO Value Area Lines from RTH without changing the session start time? Thanks

Set the Input for "Base on Day Session Only" to "Yes", and "Reference Periods Back" to "1" to get the previous day's day session TPO Value Area Lines on the current day.

My problem is not getting the TPO Value area lines from the previous day but getting the previous day "RTH" TPO Value Area lines when I want to set up the intraday chart that use Session Start Time at Globex Opening which is 18:00:00 rather than RTH Opening. If I follow your instruction to get the RTH TPO Value Area Lines for session of the previous day, I need to change the Session Start Time to RTH Session which will interfere with the other indicators that I want to start calculate at Globex Opening time rather than RTH session start time. I want to still use the Globex Opening time 18:00:00 as my intraday chart Session Start Time but at the same time having previous day RTH Value Area lines on the current day. Thanks

The instructions we gave you will give you exactly what you want as long as your Session Times are setup for separate Day and Evening sessions. Do you have them setup this way?

Yes, I already have them setup as you said. Here I attached the picture of intraday chart using RTH Session Start Time that showing the correct TPO Value Area Lines for previous day RTH but my VWAP indicator will start at RTH Session Start Time rather than my preferred Globex Session Start. I would like my intraday chart with my VWAP indicator to start at Globex Session Start Time. But if I change the Session Start Time to Globex Session Start Time, the calculation of the of the TPO Value Area Lines will account the whole Globex Session. Is it possible to specifically mention the start and end times of the TPO Value Area Lines inside the study rather than relying on the Session Start Time since I want to use 2 different start time for each VWAP and TPO Value Area Lines. Thanks. https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=170240033775.png https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1702400432281.png

We are not able to reproduce what you are seeing in the situation where you have a separate Day and Evening sessions. When we do this, the TPO Value Area Lines are properly calculated from the start of the Day Session, as long as the option for "Base on Day Session Only" is set to "Yes". Please get us the chart so we can take a look at your setup, by following these instructions: Support Board Posting Information: Providing Chartbook with Only a Single Chart For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

Hi, Attached is the chartbook you have requested. The chart shows the correct TPO Value Area Lines calculating Day sessions only. But the chart start after the day sessions end which showed by the ECIVwap indicator that start at 14:30 in the chartbook. I want my chart to start recalculate the ECIVwap at Globex Open rather than after Day Session end while showing the previous Day Session TPO Value Area Lines. If I use Day and Evening Session Time in the Chart Settings Sessions Session Times, it will interfere with the ECIVwap start with I want it to start at Globex Open. But if I use Day and Evening session, yes I get the correct previous Day Session TPO Value Area Lines, but I get the wrong start of my ECIVWap. Therefore, is there a way that I can get both of this as I want in the same chart? Thanks.

The ECIVwap is not one of our studies (it is a User Contributed Study), we can not speak to how it work or how to get what you want from it. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

ECIVwap is just working exactly as your Volume Weighted Average Price study. The only concern here is actually the start time. Here, I attached the study with your Volume Weighted Average Price study that shows the same thing which the VWAP start to calculate when Evening session starts.

Our VWAP study does not have an option for starting only at the Day Session. If you just want the current day's calculation for the VWAP, then you could use the Input for "Start Date-Time" where this is set to the current day and the beginning of the day session.
