horizontal line between 2 points, based on 2 variables

[Matt_S]

I've looked at a few different threads and tried some things but I'm struggling to get the output that I desire.

I want to have up a chart for Today and 30 minutes with extended hours on.

I want to plot the Highest(High) between the bar at 18:00 and 19:59. Plot High1 = ????
I want to plot the Lowest(Low) between the bar at 18:00 and 19:59. Plot Low1 = ????

I want to plot the Highest(High) between the bar at 18:00 and 0:59. Plot High2 = ????
I want to plot the Lowest(Low) between the bar at 18:00 and 0:59. Plot Low2 = ????

I want to plot the Highest(High) between the bar at 18:00 and 4:59. Plot High3 = ????
I want to plot the Lowest(Low) between the bar at 18:00 and 4:59. Plot Low3 = ????

I want to plot the Highest(High) between the bar at 18:00 and 9:29. Plot High4 = ????
I want to plot the Lowest(Low) between the bar at 18:00 and 9:29. Plot Low4 = ????


Basically I want to plot the High and Low for the first 2 hours and have them plotted from 8pm to 1am
Then I want the High and Low for the first 7 hours and and have them plotted from 1am to 5am
The High and Low from the first 11 hours and and have them plotted from 5am to 930am
The High and Low of the entire overnight range (6pm to 9:30AM) and have them plotted from 9:30am until 5pm.

I want the fib extensions of each range also plotted the same time
So the 1.13%, 1.272%, 1.414%, 1.618%, 2%, and 2.618% extensions up/down for each range.



I do this manually everyday, but figured it's time to have it done automactically for me, but I am really struggling to figure it out.

Looks something like this everyday

this might help, to show high and low levels , over several time periods

So I tried to use what I could from that script. I was able to get the Highest High and Lowest Low from 6-8pm, but I can't figure out how to plot it so the line is from 6pm to 1am.

i just reread your post again, several times, and i'm still confused.

i don't know what these are refering to?
first 2 hours, first 7, first 12,...

all you have to say is, specific start and stop times,
for reading data,
and for plotting data.

-----------

copy this part and fill in with your desired start and stop times, for each time period.

find the high and low during this time period,
x:xx to y:yy
and plot lines during this time period,
k:kk to m:mm

What it looks like at the moment

What I want it to look like

this will,
..read highest/lowest price levels from 4 time periods, each day.
..can plot lines at the highest/lowest levels, during a different plot period, or during the hi/lo period
..can span midmight
..labels to show time periods
..can show a vertical line at midnight

tested with /ES and entended hours on

# hilo_in_time_periods_01

#-----------------------
# halcyonguy
# 22-11-24
# plot hi lo lines, from 4 time periods, ea day. can span midmight

'read' high/low from 4 time periods.
plot lines during plot periods

 

[Matt_S]

working on something.....

copy this part and fill in with your desired start and stop times, for each time period.


find the high and low during this time period,
x:xx to y:yy
and plot lines during this time period,
k:kk to m:mm

find the high and low during this time period,
18:00 to 19:59
and plot lines during this time period,
18:00 to 00:45


find the high and low during this time period,
18:00 to 00:59
and plot lines during this time period,
01:00 to 04:45

find the high and low during this time period,
18:00 to 04:59
and plot lines during this time period,
05:00 to 09:15

find the high and low during this time period,
18:00 to 09:29
and plot lines during this time period,
9:30 to 17:59

Yooooooooooooo!

I guess you edited a post instead of making a new reply because I did not get an email saying you posted this, I wish I would have known sooner. First let me say thank you for how fast you have been responding and taking the time to help me. Once this script is finished with my additions it is going to help so many people that use this 1 trade setup I discovered to make a ton of money. It's worked everyday with a 3 point or less error since May, even on volatile days like CPI, it still is within 3 points of the sessions High and Low.

So I just copied the code exactly, but it not working for me. In the top left hand corner it says too many iterations in folding 1440 as seen in the picture below.

Here is a copy of the script, literally everything you posted above, but does not work.
http://tos.mx/xxXTNXv

could you possibly just send me a tos.mx link to a chart with the study applied that is working on your TOS?

I don't think it's any of my settings but ya never know. Just opening up a shared item of a chart with it working correctly is all I need to start adding the additional desired outputs that I want to add.


Again THANK YOU SO MUCH for your time. You have no idea how much I appreciate this. I spent so many hours trying to figure it out but couldn't. I have very limited knowledge of coding or even using ThinkScript and the few custom scripts I did write took me quite some time to finish, so having access to this community and actually recieving help as fast as I did and the follow up responses is AMAZING!

Ok well I solved that I suppose. Today 30 minutes tested on On Demand didn't work, neither did 5 days. Then I remember something about this code from earlier versions said you need enough days, so I put 10 days and it shows up.

Is it 100% impossible to do it on a time frame under 10D? Every little adjustment I make resets the zoom and I have to keep selecting to zoom back in to the current day.

There is still so much customization to do as well. I don't even know how many conditions I am going to have to write so that multiple extensions aren't posted and only 1, or if 2 are very close "which" to plot and not. Then there's the "if" this is hit, than "this" is potential target adjustments.

The most important one of "which of the 4 sets should be the main focus" that changes everyday and theres a lot of variables that I use to decide and unlock its fibs, vs other sets fibs.

Anyway, I'm not going to go into it, I just really appreciate you taking the time to do this, now I finally have the required base code I needed to start my super complex script!!

A view of 9:30 after deciding to focus on the 8pm set in yellow.

A view of 5pm - notice depending on what set was picked the error does vary but is always 3 points or less from the HOD and LOD. The 8pm set was infact the correct one with levels closest to both the high and low of the day.
