trying to set up a pivot based on a specific time

[fasc76]

I am trying to set up a study to draw a pivot line based on the price a specific time, specifically, at the opening price of RTH for the e-mini. I have browsed through the posts and a lot of the code deal with setting up pivots based on relative, not absolute, bars, e.g last bar or 3rd from last bar, etc. I need help trying to code in an absolute time for a price - 08:30:01 (CST) price.

I have tried to modify the variable-pivots.efs, but cannot get it to look a specific time. Suggestions, please ....

Try This....

// user variables.
var eministarttime = 830;

// system variables
var starttimebar = null;
var starttimeprice = null;
var vHour;
var vMin;
var vSec;
var vDay;
var vMonth;
var vYear;
var vTime = new Date();
var nLastRawTime = 0;
var BLBarOffset = 0;


function preMain() {
    setStudyTitle("Timr/price");
    setShowCursorLabel(false);
    setCursorLabelName("Sto");
                setPriceStudy(true);
}

function main() {

if (getValue("rawtime", 0) != nLastRawTime) {
     nLastRawTime = getValue("rawtime", 0);
     BLBarOffset += 1;
}

//  Get Time Variables
  vTime = getValue("Time", 0);
  vHour = vTime.getHours();
  vMin = vTime.getMinutes();
  vSec = vTime.getSeconds();
  vDay = vTime.getDate();
  vMonth = vTime.getMonth() +1;
  vYear = vTime.getYear();

//  identify the opening price values for the current day.
  if (((vHour*100)+vMin) == eministarttime) {
    starttimebar = BLBarOffset;
    starttimeprice = open();
  }

//  draw the line if the values are established.
  if ((starttimebar != null) && (starttimeprice != null)) {
   drawLineRelative( (starttimebar - BLBarOffset), starttimeprice, 0, starttimeprice, PS_SOLID, 2, Color.blue, ("830"+vDay);
  }

}
