Exclude previous day conditions from intraday scan

[lucius]

I have a scanner that looks for 3 green bars with higher highs and higher lows intraday.

def startTime = SecondsTillTime(0945) >= 0;
def endTime = SecondsFromTime(1545) >= 0;
def timeEnabled = !(startTime or endTime);

def greenCandle = close > open;

def higherHighs =
    high > high[1] and
    low > low[1] and
    high[1] > high[2] and
    low[1] > low[2];

plot scan = timeEnabled and
    ((greenCandle[3] and greenCandle[2] and greenCandle[1])
    or (greenCandle[4] and greenCandle[3] and greenCandle[2])
    or (greenCandle[5] and greenCandle[4] and greenCandle[3])
    or (greenCandle[6] and greenCandle[5] and greenCandle[4]))
    and (higherHighs or higherHighs[1] or higherHighs[2]);

The issue I am having is that the scanner produces results for stocks that have 2 green bars in a row with higher highs and higher lows during the current trading session and would also include a green bar with higher highs and higher lows from the previous day. Please advise on how to exclude previous day conditions so that my scan will only produce results for condition met during the current trading session?

@luicius Have you gone to Chart Settings > Equities and edited the Extended Hours settings... Checking Start aggregation at market open should help...

@rad14733, thank you for your response. I don't believe chart settings has anything to do with the scan settings.

Was going by the chart and missed the bit about the scan... Scanning is totally separate from chart settings...

Does this happen regardless of aggregation and/or timeframes...???

try this

def day = GetDay();
def lastDay = GetLastDay();
def isToday = If(day == lastDay, 1, 0);

def startTime = SecondsTillTime(0945) >= 0;
def endTime = SecondsFromTime(1545) >= 0;
def timeEnabled = !(startTime or endTime);

def greenCandle = close > open;

def higherHighs =
    high > high[1] and
    low > low[1] and
    high[1] > high[2] and
    low[1] > low[2];

plot scan = isToday and timeEnabled and
    ((greenCandle[3] and greenCandle[2] and greenCandle[1])
    or (greenCandle[4] and greenCandle[3] and greenCandle[2])
    or (greenCandle[5] and greenCandle[4] and greenCandle[3])
    or (greenCandle[6] and greenCandle[5] and greenCandle[4]))
    and (higherHighs or higherHighs[1] or higherHighs[2]);
