$ADD High/ Low Daily plots

[timetraveler]

Hello,

Can anyone help with this script?

What I'm trying to do is plot the Daily high for the $ADD as the Green Dashed Line on top and the Red line at the Low. The problem I'm having (seen in the attached photo) is that the High and Low is being plotted for the entire time frame that the chart displays. I'm trying to have the High/ Low plots start fresh each day, in other words: still be able to view multiple days at once but have the plots positioned for the High and Low of EACH day.

I really appreciate the help.

Here is my code following the image:

input openingRangeStartTimeEST = 0930;

input openingRangeEndTimeEST = 1600;

input EndTimeEST = 1600;

plot info = open(symbol = "$ADD");

info.SetLineWeight(2);
info.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.LINE);
info.AssignValueColor(if info > info[1] then Color.DARK_GREEN


else if


info < info[1]


then Color.RED


else CreateColor(75, 75, 75));



def ADD = GetSymbol() == "$ADD";

def today = GetDay() != GetDay()[-1];

def percent = Round (info / 2800) * 100;

def high = HighestAll(info);

def low = LowestAll(info);

def openingRange = if SecondsTillTime(openingRangeStartTimeEST) <= 0 and SecondsTillTime(openingRangeEndTimeEST) >= 0 then 1 else 0;

def openingRangeHigh = if SecondsTillTime(openingRangeStartTimeEST) == 0 then high else if openingRange and high > openingRangeHigh[1] then high else openingRangeHigh[1];

def openingRangeLow = if SecondsTillTime(openingRangeStartTimeEST) == 0 then low else if openingRange and low < openingRangeLow[1] then low else openingRangeLow[1];

def StartTimeEST = openingRangeStartTimeEST;
def Range = if SecondsTillTime(StartTimeEST) <= 0 and SecondsTillTime(EndTimeEST) >= 0 then 1 else 0;

plot HighExtension = if Range then openingRangeHigh else Double.NaN;
plot LowExtension = if Range then openingRangeLow else Double.NaN;

HighExtension.SetStyle(Curve.LONG_DASH);
HighExtension.SetLineWeight(1);
HighExtension.AssignValueColor( Color.GREEN);
LowExtension.SetStyle(Curve.LONG_DASH);
LowExtension.SetLineWeight(1);
LowExtension.AssignValueColor( Color.RED);

This is where you're telling the script to get the highest high and lowest low on the chart.

def high = HighestAll(info);

def low = LowestAll(info);

Based on what you've described you want, this is all you need if you put it only on the $ADD chart.

plot dayHigh = high(period=aggregationperiod.day);
plot dayLow = low(period=aggregationperiod.day);

It looks like from your code you're aware of how to assign colors to your plots, so, if you follow that with these two lines, you should accomplish what you're looking for.

I have a personal preference toward keeping parameters for a plot close to the plot.

Ex.:

plot dayHigh.......;
dayHigh.setdefaultcolor(....);
dayHigh.setstyle(....);

Hope this helps!

I still need to assign the symbol: $ADD first. This is a lower chart. The top chart uses a different symbol ( /MES) so the High and Lows are being determined by a different symbol.

Is it possible to assign $ADD in the code first so that High and Low are not based on the /MES ?

UPDATE:

Seems to be working now:


declare lower;


input symbol = "$ADD";


def nan = Double.NaN;
def o = open(symbol = symbol);
def c = close(symbol = symbol);
def h = High(symbol = symbol, period = AggregationPeriod.DAY) ;
def l = low(symbol = symbol, period = AggregationPeriod.DAY) ;

AddChart(high = if c > o then h else nan,
low = if c > o then l else nan,
close = if c > o then c else nan,
open = if c > o then o else nan,
ChartType.LINE, Color.GREEN);
AddChart(high = if c < o then h else nan,
low = if c < o then l else nan,
open = if c < o then o else nan,
close = if c < o then c else nan,
ChartType.LINE, Color.RED);
AddChart(high = if c == o then h else nan,
low = if c == o then l else nan,
open = if c == o then o else nan,
close = if c == o then c else nan,
ChartType.LINE, Color.GRAY);

plot h1 = h;

h1.SetStyle(Curve.LONG_DASH);
h1.SetLineWeight(1);
h1.AssignValueColor( Color.GREEN);

plot l1 = l;

l1.SetStyle(Curve.LONG_DASH);
l1.SetLineWeight(1);
l1.AssignValueColor( Color.RED);

This is a lower chart. The top chart uses a different symbol ( /MES) so the High and Lows are being determined by a different symbol.

Did you know that you can turn the price plot off in the chart settings?

(I'm really not trying to drag this on - I've had scenarios like yours previously and utilizing this helped a good bit)

Because of following the image below, the $ADD "chart" shown here is actually two lower windows but the $ADD price chart is not there because it has been toggled off by the setting shown in the first image below.
