draw the recent days high/low on a daily chart at the close of the PM market activity

Happy New Year Everyone! I have read through several post and have been unable to locate the code that simply draws the recent days high/low on a daily chart at the close of the PM market activity. Because of my work schedule I start my chart analysis in the evening (around 8pm) and have been manually drawing the high/lows on several charts which is very time consuming. If possible, can the lines extend to right to minimize clutter. Thanks in advance for any assistance provided.

Happy New Year! If you just want the previous day highs and lows it is a pretty simple script. See code below.

I also monitor the globex H/L if you want that code but I am pretty sure you can find it here.

Here is the shared chart. http://tos.mx/SkShhnc

The strat on this set up - We have been stuck in balance. Market Profile Theory is "Balance Leads to Excess". On the previous day and in the globex session we popped hard. Then had a waterfall dump into demand on the open. We made a higher low after getting extended (Use your favorite method here - oscillator, price action, exhaustion, etc.) The moving averages crossed. Now you can start to look for a buy the dip. I was watching for continuation and adds on a break of the previous HOD. Then we had a break of the opening candle and even cracked the weekly open. Hope this helps.

#Plots RTH only High/Low

def Today = if GetDay() == GetLastDay() then 1 else 0;

#Plot yesterday's high / low
plot Yhigh = if ShowTodayOnly and !Today then Double.NaN else high(period = "day" )[1];
plot Ylow = if ShowTodayOnly and !Today then Double.NaN else low(period = "day" )[1];

Yhigh.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
Yhigh.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK);
Yhigh.SetLineWeight(2);
Ylow.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
Ylow.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK);
Ylow.SetLineWeight(2);
