Is there a script that will automatically plot a cloud at the H/L of the first 15 min bar close and extend it right like in the pic. Thanks

in what area do I put the time in for the 1st 15 min candle ? there is a lot of stuff in this study !!!


sorry about that, i'll simplify it...
i ended up finding one i made and and added the cloud.

with this one , just pick a time period, that corresponds with the desired orb time. default is 15 minutes

draws dots during orb time, at highest and lowest.
draws lines after orb time, at highest and lowest orb levels.

with after hours off, the cloud was stretching from the last bar of a day to the first bar of next day.
an easy way to stop this was to, don't draw a cloud on the first bar of the day.


Code:
# orb_07
#----------------------
# orb lines , cloud
# halcyonguy
# 23-02-26
#----------------------

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

def lastbar = !isnan(close[0]) and isnan(close[-1]);

# chart time
def chartagg = GetAggregationPeriod();
def chartmin = (chartagg /(1000*60));

# pick a time for ORB
input orb_time = AggregationPeriod.fifteen_min;
def orbmin = (orb_time/(60*1000));


# daytime (EST)
input start = 0930;
input end = 1600;
def daytime = if secondsfromTime(start) >= 0 and secondstillTime(end) > 0 then 1 else 0;
def day_start = secondsfromTime(start) == 0;

input show_ORB_label = yes;
addlabel(show_ORB_label, " ORB " + orbmin, color.cyan);

def duration_sec = orbmin * 60;
def seconds_passed = secondsfromTime(start);

def isorb = if seconds_passed >= 0 and seconds_passed < duration_sec then 1 else 0;

def orbhi = high(period = orb_time);
def orblo = low(period = orb_time);

def perhigh = if !daytime then na else if isorb then orbhi else perhigh[1];
def perlow = if !daytime then na else if isorb then orblo else perlow[1];


input show_orb_level_lines = yes;

# plot dots for first bar timeframe
plot hidots = if show_orb_level_lines and isorb then perhigh else na;
plot lodots = if show_orb_level_lines and isorb then perlow else na;
hidots.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.points);
lodots.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.pointS);
hidots.setDefaultColor(color.yellow);
lodots.setDefaultColor(color.yellow);

# plot line after first bar 
plot hiline = if show_orb_level_lines and !isorb then perhigh else na;
plot loline = if show_orb_level_lines and !isorb then perlow else na;
hiline.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.line);
loline.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.line);
hiline.setDefaultColor(color.yellow);
loline.setDefaultColor(color.yellow);


input show_orb_cloud = yes;
def cld_hi = if !show_orb_cloud or day_start then na else perhigh;
def cld_lo = if !show_orb_cloud or day_start then na else perlow;
addcloud(cld_hi, cld_lo, color.gray, color.gray);

Any help coding this would be greatly appreciated!
Im trying to do this without the orb cause I know nothing about it . Am I on the right track with this script I came up with? The problem im having is a cloud is formed on EVERY CANDLE !!!! I only want a cloud to form on the high and low of the 1st 15 min candle when it closes . PLEASE HELP !I **** AT THIS !!!!

def OpenPrice = open;

def ClosePrice = close;

AddCloud(OpenPrice, ClosePrice, color.RED, color.GREEN, yes);

This is great! Request to add a midline to the code.
