Find first bar of the day

  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

  1 2 3 4 5 6

  if intradaybarindex=0 then myhi=high mylo=low endif   return myhi, mylo
