first hour high and low

[scolberg13]

I would like a study that would plot the first hour high and low as vertical lines on the chart, RTH only. Thanks for any help.

One way to do it is the following (the example is for drawing a vertical line on the bar with the highest High in the first hour)
Create a global variable (ie outside of function main) called for example vHigh and set it initially to 0

var vHigh = 0; 

Then in main you first set the value of vHigh to the High at 9:30

if((getHour(0)*100)+getMinute(0)==930){
        vHigh=high(0)
    } 

Then in between the hours of 9:30 and 10:30 you check if the current High is higher than vHigh and draw a vertical line on the bar with the highest High

if((getHour(0)*100)+getMinute(0)>=930&&(getHour(0)*100)+getMinute(0)<=1030){
        if(high(0)>=vHigh){
            vHigh = high(0);
            drawLineRelative(0, 0, 0, Infinity*1, PS_SOLID,1, Color.blue, "high"+getDay(0));
        }
    } 

Note that in order to draw only one line per day I use getDay(0) as the counter for the TagName parameter.
Add the logic for the Low and you should see the two vertical lines on the bars with the highest/lowest High/Low in between 9:30 and 10:30
