Hello I am new here, please does anyone have a code for the percentage price change from one specific intraday time to another? for example: A %chg from random times like 9:52a up to 10:32a or any 2 min frame. Any help will be much appreciated!!

find price and % difference between 2 bars during the same day.
pick 2 times, in HHMM format , in EST.
defaults
input start = 0945;
input end = 1115;

draw cyan dots on bars
prices from current day are displayed in labels

Code:
# chg_of2_bars

def bn = BarNumber();
def na = Double.NaN;

#def daytime3 = (gettime() >= RegularTradingStart(GetYYYYMMDD()) and gettime() < RegularTradingend(GetYYYYMMDD()));
#def difftime = daytime3 != daytime3[1];
#def timefirst = daytime3 and !daytime3[1];
#def timelast = daytime3 and !daytime3[-1];
def diffday = GetDay() != GetDay()[1];
#def lastday = GetDay() != GetlastDay();

# times , (EST)
input start = 0945;
input end = 1115;

def t1 = if secondsfromTime(start) >= 0 and secondstillTime(start) >= 0 then 1 else 0;
def t2 = if secondsfromTime(end) >= 0 and secondstillTime(end) >= 0 then 1 else 0;

def cls1 = if diffday then 1 else if t1 then close else cls1[1];
def cls2 = if diffday then 1 else if t2 then close else cls2[1];
def diff = if t2 then cls2 - cls1 else diff[1];
def per = 100 * diff / cls1;

addlabel(1, (cls2 + " - " + cls1 + " = " + diff), color.yellow);
addlabel(1, per + " % chg", color.yellow);

plot zcls1 = if t1 then close else double.nan;
zcls1.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.POINTS);
zcls1.SetDefaultColor(Color.cyan);
zcls1.setlineweight(5);
#zcls1.hidebubble();

plot zcls2 = if t2 then close else double.nan;
zcls2.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.POINTS);
zcls2.SetDefaultColor(Color.cyan);
zcls2.setlineweight(5);
#zcls2.hidebubble();

Thank you! The labels are accurate, but can I ask for a tweak if it's possible, I should've ask originally for the percent distance from the high to low on only two specific times on a 2 minute bar. Not the range of the other bars that's in-between those two times, only the high and low of lets say 9:42a to 11:12a or 11:12a to 9:42 regardless which ever 2-minute bar is above the other by the time the 2nd time bar forms. if not, the script here you made for me will still be beneficial. Thanks again.
