Hi All,
Can anyone help me to find the highest, lowest point and middle point during my trading hour, since I find that DHigh or Dlow record the highest point or lowest point before the trading hour, and my trading hour is 091500 to 030000.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
From 091500 to 030000 is 17.75 hours or 71 x 15 minutes.
When using a 15-minute timeframe:
TimeFrame(15 minutes)
If Time=030000 then
xHighest=Highest[71](High)
xLowest=Lowest[71](Low)
EndIf
xMiddle=(xHighest + xLowest)/2
Return xHighest as “Highest”, xLowest as “Lowest”, xMiddle as “Middle”
Hi JS,
Thank you for reply.
Since I am using 1 minute time frame, and I want to have these high, low and middle during the trading hour, can you amend the code for me with thanks in advance.

Hi Annchow,
If you want the indicator to be “Live”, you will have to choose a certain look-back period…
Try this… (period subject to change)
DefParam DrawOnLastBarOnly=True
//Period=100
If Time<091500 and Time>030000 then
xHighest=High
xLowest=Low
xMiddle=(High+Low)/2
EndIf
If Time>=091500 or Time<=030000 THEN
xHighest=Highest[Period](High)
DrawText("Highest=#xHighest#",-75,100,SansSerif,Bold,16)Coloured("Green") Anchor(Bottom)
xLowest=Lowest[Period](Low)
DrawText("Lowest=#xLowest#",-75,50,SansSerif,Bold,16)Coloured("Red") Anchor(Bottom)
xMiddle=(xHighest+xLowest)/2
DrawText("Middle=#xMiddle#",-75,75,SansSerif,Bold,16)Coloured("Blue") Anchor(Bottom)
EndIf
Return xHighest Coloured("Green") as "High",xLowest Coloured("Red") as "Low",xMiddle Coloured("Blue") as "Middle"
Hi JS,
Thanks for your kindness and quick support .
It is working good.
Hi JS,
Further to my study, I find that the highest point have something wrong which record the highest point before 9:15, can you help me to amend it with thanks.
Hi JS,
Further to my study, I find that it record the highest point and lowest point during the 03:00 to 09:15 at the beginning of the trading hour. Please help me to amend it with thanks.

Hi Annchow,
I’m a bit confused because you write in the beginning that you want to have the values during your trading hours (091500-030000)…
So the indicator only shows the values during your trading hours and beyond that it is “just” the High and the Low of the price…
Hi JS,
Sorry for any confusion. Actually, I want to have the highest , lowest and middle point during my trading hour, however, your code provide me the highest or lowest point is not correct, it record the wrong highest point or lowest point especially during the beginning of the trading hour, please check with the pictures provided, please amend it for me with thanks.

Hi Annchow,
The code works with a certain look-back period, at the beginning (091500) this look-back period will also be used, (with data from before 0915000) and the output will be influenced by this…
This is inevitable or you must leave the beginning blank until only date from after 0915000 is used…
Hope it’s clear…
Hi JS,
Noted with many thanks for your kindness support.
Hi JS,
Is it possible to design a loop to eliminate the look back ?
JSParticipant

Hi Annchow,
In the PRT settings, try to set your trading times to your “trading hour” so that you only work with these times and automatically create the “Loop” you are talking about…
Hi JS,
Further to my trying to reset the trading hour, it is quite difficult and not easy to setup after trial. Thanks for your support .
Hi,
Currently in prooder forum, that’s ok if you’re after a code snippet to include without a “return” line in a backtest/automatic strategy and are just visualising the code behaviour through an indicator, but in case you just wanted an indicator in the first place (please confirm) then I would move the topic to the probuilder forum.
I hope I didn’t misunderstand the query, my understanding is you want customised highest and lowest (and their middle) starting at 9:15 in the morning, and going all the way to 3AM, and want to ignore what happens between 3 in the morning and 9:15 in the morning, with a code that works for 1 mn timeframe, is that correct? If yes, maybe you could try this:
if opentime[1]<091500 and opentime>=091500 then
hh=high
ll=low
endif
if opentime>=091500 or opentime<030000 then
hh=max(high,hh)
ll=min(low,ll)
mid=(ll+hh)/2
else// in case you want to "park" hh and ll between 3AM and 9:15AM, you can choose any value you like, here high and low but can be anything else, like both on close if you prefer
hh=high
ll=low
mid=(ll+hh)/2
endif
return ll as "My lowest", mid as "My middle", hh as "My highest"
