hi, i have some issues trying to set time range that would pass over midnight. lets say i want to calculate mid-price of premarket (starting 15:30 and ending 8:30 the next day). when i set up the starting time at 15:30 and finishing time at 8:30 in my inputs using SetTime/GetTime function, it doesn't really work well. it either calculates from 15:30 till midnight, or it starts calculating from midnight and stops at 8:30. in both cases the result is incorrect because i need to calculate from 15:30 up to 8:30 next day in one go. i know the GetTime function returns int of seconds from midnight so the behaviour kind of makes sense. but i dont know how to set up the range correctly. which function to use or how to combine them.. i tried some others (eg. COMBINE_DATE_TIME etc.) but did not succeed. can you give me a litle hint of how to solve it? Date Time Of Last Edit: 2018-05-27 10:28:35

We recommend looking at studies like High/Low for Time Period to understand how to work with times in this way.
