Hi all,

i need to know data related to first bar of the day, or its BARINDEX

The code:

If time = 000000 then

MyHI = high

MyLO = low

Endif

Return MyHI as “high”,MyLO as “low”

do work, but only if a bar does exist at 000000. For some reason in PRT charts in the US future markets some bars are missing (for instance monday may start at 6:30).

How to get the first bar of the day after 00:00:00 event if a bar at 00:00:00 does not exist?

If dayofweek[0] <> dayofweek[1]

then firstBarOfTheDay = BARINDEX

Endif

Return firstBarOfTheDay

but this does not work for me.

Sorry for the bad formatting….

TIA

Roberto

Hello.
I have moved your query to the English forum. Remember to write in the language of your chosen forum.
Regarding how to insert code, by default I always post in the forum with the code option, instead of visual.
Here you can click on the Add PRT Code button to add code (see screenshot).
regarding your main question:
You can use intradaybarindex
```
if intradaybarindex=0 then
myhi=high
mylo=low
endif

return myhi, mylo
```
