Hi! For Number Bars, "Determine Maximum/Minimum Values for Coloring From DAILY DATA", how do we know if it's regular session or full session including extended hours? Is there any setting to control start time? I currently have 2 session. |

From the documentation for that Input: Daily Data: the maximum and minimum values that are used as the denominator in the percentage calculations are determined from the maximum and minimum values determined over the course of the trading day as defined by the Session Times.
In general, the "Trading Day" starts with the start of the "Evening Session". Given your setup, this means that the Minimum/Maximum for Daily Data is determined from the data from 18:00:00 to 09:29:59 For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Thank you John. Is it possible to change base data to the current session? What would the setting be?

The Numbers Bars study does not have any controls for the session that is used. The only way to control this is to exclude the particular data you want from the chart. So if you do not want the Evening Session to be used to determine the Minimum/Maximum values when you are using Daily data for this, then you would need to turn off the Evening Session. If you have a particular set of times for which you want this to be done, then you would need to set up those times as the "Session Times".
