I want to get the highest and lowest price (H and L) of the first 5 minutes after opening market then draw the HORIZONTAL with any lower time frame such as 1 minutes.
can we get the highest and lowest price (H and L) of the first 5 minutes after opening market and draw the HORIZONTAL line with this code. No matter what frame time we use. Thank you

H.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
H.setdefaultColor(color.green);

L.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
L.setdefaultColor(color.red);

I just need to draw the line in Highest and lowest for the first 5 minutes to use my own strategy. But the ORG is very helpful . Thank you anyway

See if this helps. It should draw the lines starting at the market open and expand during the 1st 5 minutes and then extend the lines until the next marrket open

Code:
#HL_TimeRange_using_ProfileHL

input begin = 0930;
input end   = 0935;

input pricePerRowHeightMode = {AUTOMATIC, default TICKSIZE};
def height;
switch (pricePerRowHeightMode) {
case AUTOMATIC:
    height = PricePerRow.AUTOMATIC;
case TICKSIZE:
    height = PricePerRow.TICKSIZE;
}

def rth  = if isnan(close) then rth[1] else SecondsFromTime(begin) >= 0 and SecondsTillTime(end) > 0;
def cond = rth != rth[1]...

I am very newbie. Thanks for all of you here support me every time I asked
I use this code . It seem work well. I want to share if anything not correct please advice.

#DTVAN

def agg5 = AggregationPeriod.FIVE_MIN;

input startTimeMarket = 0930;
input endTimeFirst5Minute = 0935;

def startCounter5 = SecondsFromTime(startTimeMarket);
def endCounter5 = SecondsTillTime(endTimeFirst5Minute);
def first5Minutes = if startCounter5 >= 0 and endCounter5 > 0 then 1 else 0;

def high5 = if first5Minutes and !first5Minutes[1]
then high(period = agg5)
else if first5Minutes then if high > high5[1] then high else high5[1]
else high5[1];

def low5 = if first5Minutes and !first5Minutes[1]
then low(period = agg5)
else if first5Minutes then if low < low5[1] then low else low5[1]
else low5[1];

#END DTVAN

AddLabel (yes, "H5 :" + high5, Color.GREEN);
AddLabel (yes, "L5 :" + low5, Color.WHITE);

plot H5 = high5;
H5.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
H5.setdefaultColor(color.yellow);


plot L5 = low5;
L5.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
L5.setdefaultColor(color.yellow);

Your code seems to work very well. Nice work!!
 
Here is the code loaded from what I provided in post #4 above in the following link https://tos.mx/b5QHS51. It works as shown in the image below

If you are still having problems, plost a link to the chart and share it.
Thank you. I checked the link you share the code is the same. But it worked very well. after investigating. I found out the reason is the code if i place in tab STRATEGY it not work well. But if i place in Tab STUDY It work well.
Any one have any idea about that?

The strategy tab is ONLY for scripts utilizing ADDORDER statements for the backtesting process.
Studies can only be cut and pasted into the study tab.
