saw a guy using this indicator. It is for intraday charts and only plots during the current session starting from open. it simply plots the midpoint (50% retracement) between the high and low of the current day starting from open.
below is a link where i saw it, go to time around 13 minutes to see it. its the yellow line.

Turn off the plot of the high/low developing lines if you only want the mid/50% retracement line.
