Whats wrong with this? I stripped all the studies from a duplicate chart except for the OHLC study twice. The second one has the "Display Day Session Only" to YES, so I can get my RTH Hi/Lows. In the attached charts you can see Light Green for RTH HIGH and Lt red for RTH Low. The reason I have these on, is that something is wrong. Am I missing something obvious? One chart is set to CHICAGO time, the other is NEW YORK time. The RTH open should be at 9:30 regardless, right? At least that is what your OHLC study is telling me on the "Display day session only" one, evidenced by the fact at 9:30 on both charts (Lt green and Lt red lines start denoting HOD/LOD. Why are the charts different from the OPEN, and why is the OPEN DIFFERENT for each chart? Its the same data, I just switched the time zones. Nothing else was change on the charts. I just toggled back and forth and switched time zones to Chicago, then NY time. Your OHLC study is denoting the OPEN. On Chicago time has 2713.75 (which is correct). But the NY time has it at 2718.25. You'll notice that besides the market going different ways, the HI/Lows are different. What is causing this? The OHLC study is performing correctly, right? Thx |

All time/session data display aspects are based on user inputs for session time and time zone. If you want a Chicago chart and a New York chart to display the same RTH Open to Close session you would have to have the Chicago session start at 8:30 and the New York session start at 9:30 and ending at 15:15 and 16:15 respectively. The time display of data on a chart is not based on how data is time-stamped from the server, but purely on chart settings. The OHLC study derives it inputs and display parameters from the session time and time zone settings of the chart that it's based on and not on how the data is time-stamped.
