Hello,
Kindly asking for some help to tweak an indicator:
Can someone make this bar counter display only on the current day? So it doesn’t display on any prior day than today.
Thank you,
Andreas
Once Count = 0
StartSession=22
EndSession=221500
If OpenTime >= StartSession and OpenTime <= EndSession then
Count=Count+1
xEven=Count/2 - Round(Count/2)
If IntraDayBarIndex = 0 then
Count = 1
EndIf
If Count > 0 and xEven=0 then
DrawText( "#Count#", BarIndex,Low-1*pipsize,SansSerif) COLOURED (153, 153, 153, 255)
EndIf
If Time = EndSession then
Count=0
EndIf
Endif
Return

defparam drawonlastbaronly=true
Appreciate the reply, but this only shows it for the last bar. I want it to show on the entire current day on any time frame. So the 5 min chart may currently have say 32 bars or 79 bars on the current day, and I want it to show only on these bars.
No, this is not what I am trying to change. I still only want it to display odd numbers. I simply want it to display what’s its already doing but only on the current day, whatever length the current day may already have.
Hello,
defparam drawonlastbaronly=true
Count=IntraDayBarIndex
for i=0 to count
If (Count[i] mod 2)<>0 then
valcount=Count[i]
DrawText( "#valcount#", BarIndex[i],Low[i]-1*pipsize,SansSerif) COLOURED (153, 153, 153, 255)
EndIf
next

Thank you sir. This only displays on the current day like requested.
But this code counts the first bar as bar 0, is it possible to change this so the first bar of the day is bar 1?
And I misspoke (sorry) in my last reply, I want it to display the even numbers only. Is this possible to fix?
I want it to display like in the screenshot:
This version should change to first bar count = 1, and display even numbers.
Also included, a choice to select the most appropriate IF line, depending if the need is to display even numbers AND 1 as in screenshot, or only even numbers as in text. The unwanted IF line needs to be commented out thanks to // at beginning of line.
defparam drawonlastbaronly=true
Count=IntraDayBarIndex+1
for i=0 to count-1
If Count[i]=1 or (Count[i] mod 2)=0 then // use to display even bar numbers AND also bar=1 as in screenshot
//If (Count[i] mod 2)=0 then // use instead of above IF line to display ONLY even bar numbers as asked in text, not bar=1
valcount=Count[i]
DrawText( "#valcount#", BarIndex[i],Low[i]-1*pipsize,SansSerif) COLOURED (153, 153, 153, 255)
EndIf
next

This functions well! However, it seems to attempt to load on all the data in the chart which takes a lot of time for it to complete.
So switching between symbols now makes my CPU fan turn on. The original version (the one in my original post) did not do this even though it displayed bar numbers on a lot of data.
Is this possible to fix?
If pc struggles, using islastbarupdate makes it possible to achieve same result with added bonus of skipping all unneeded earlier calculations to give CPU fan some rest when switching often:
defparam drawonlastbaronly=true
Count=IntraDayBarIndex+1
if islastbarupdate then
for i=0 to count-1
If Count[i]=1 or (Count[i] mod 2)=0 then // use to display even bar numbers AND also bar=1 as in image
//If (Count[i] mod 2)=0 then // use instead of above IF line to display ONLY even bar numbers as asked in text, not bar=1
valcount=Count[i]
DrawText( "#valcount#", BarIndex[i],Low[i]-1*pipsize,SansSerif) COLOURED (153, 153, 153, 255)
EndIf
next
endif

Working great. You’re the best, thank you!
