Different color background for pit session

  I’m trying to figure out how I can color the background of my crude oil chart to show a different color during pit session (8am-1:30pm Chicago time).  I can see there are some indicators that color the background based on price value or indicator value, but I can’t find any based on time.

  To color the background based on a time conditions, you can do is as follow:

  timec= time>080000 and time<120000 if timec then backgroundcolor(0,168,0,60) endif return

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7

  timec= time>080000 and time<120000   if timec then backgroundcolor(0,168,0,60) endif   return
