Help – Previous Hourly High/Low (Intraday)

vetrader · 2019-03-25T08:05:33+00:00

Hallo, I need help for previous hourly high/low. The code below doesn’t show the correct high/low for the second hour after opening – tried with Futures and Stocks. It is also strange that the plot has to be moved at return with hourlyhigh [1]. Everything else seems to work fine. Please have a look… Best regards //Previous Hourly High/Low once hourhigh=undefined once hourlow=undefined hhigh= high[0] hlow= low[0] if Hour <> Hour[1] then hourhigh = Highest[BarIndex – lastHourBarIndex](hhigh) hourlow = Lowest[BarIndex – lastHourBarIndex](hlow) lastHourBarIndex = BarIndex if Day <> Day[1] then hourhigh = hourhigh[1] hourlow = hourlow[1] endif endif return hourhigh[1] coloured(0,0,0) style(line,1) as “Prev Hour High”, hourlow[1] coloured(0,0,0) style(line,1) as “Prev Hour Low”

Hallo,

I need help for previous hourly high/low. The code below doesn’t show the correct high/low for the second hour after opening – tried with Futures and Stocks. It is also strange that the plot has to be moved at return with hourlyhigh [1]. Everything else seems to work fine. Please have a look…

Best regards
```
//Previous Hourly High/Low
once hourhigh=undefined
once hourlow=undefined

hhigh= high[0]
hlow= low[0]

if Hour <> Hour[1] then
hourhigh = Highest[BarIndex – lastHourBarIndex](hhigh)
hourlow = Lowest[BarIndex – lastHourBarIndex](hlow)
lastHourBarIndex = BarIndex
if Day <> Day[1] then
hourhigh = hourhigh[1]
hourlow = hourlow[1]
endif
endif

return hourhigh[1] coloured(0,0,0) style(line,1) as “Prev Hour High”, hourlow[1] coloured(0,0,0) style(line,1) as “Prev Hour Low”
```

Try this one:
```
//Previous Hourly High/Low
defparam calculateonlastbars=1000
if OpenHour <> OpenHour[1] then
   PreviousHigh = hourhigh
   PreviousLow  = hourlow
   hourhigh = 0
   hourlow  = 999999
endif
hourhigh = max(hourhigh,high)
hourlow  = min(hourlow,low)
return PreviousHigh coloured(0,0,0) style(line,1) as "Prev Hour High", PreviousLow coloured(0,0,0) style(line,1) as "Prev Hour Low"
```

Thanks for the reply. Is there a solution without “defparam calculateonlastbars”, because this has also an influence if this code is part of a script with other calculations??

The solution is to remove that line, it only limits the calculation for that bars quantity, that’s all.
