Language: Easylanguage
Software: Open Ecry

Idea: Looking for a way to plot a dot at the high and low of whatever time I put in ( eg, High and Low for RTH only).


I know there are a lot of these types of indicators around, the only thing is that using OEC, it doesnt like the use of trendlines. So it would have to use plots. I found one that kind of does what I am looking for, but it takes the High of the Day ( starting at 12:00am). Tried a lot of different things, but no such luck.

Any help is appreciated.

So... are you after a dot to plot for the high & low of the day (RTH hours only ) .... or..... to plot a dot for the high & low of the bar for the specific time you enter ?

I would like it plot a dot for the High and Low of start and end time that I have the ability to modify.

For example:
Time Start: 930
Time End: 1615

That would plot a dot for the highest high and highest low for that time.

It has the ability to use some of the TS indicator's you might have. Doesnt seem to support all of the features, but quite a few.

No Probs, here you go :

Inputs:
StartTime(0933), { you'll have to use the closing time of the bar }
EndTime(1030);

vars:
HH(0),LL(0);


If Time =StartTime then begin
HH=High;
LL=Low;
end;

If Time > StartTime and Time <= EndTime then begin
If High > HH then HH = High;
If Low < LL then LL = Low;
end;


If Time >= EndTime then begin
Plot1(HH,"HighestHigh");
Plot2(LL,"LowestLow");
end;


A little tip....... if you only want it to plot once rather than every bar after the end time, then use this line "If Time = EndTime then begin...."

Hope this helps

Im going to mess around with this tomorrow. Thanks for your help.

Blu-ray,

Looks good so far. Just wondering if there was a way to do the following:



So instead of only plotting the High and Low when the end time is reached, it plots the High and low during that time in real time?

If not, not a huge deal. Thanks for the help.
