How to calculate candle open close from chart not the timeframe

[Baappi]

Hello I am looking to calculate Candle(bar) open / close from the CHART not the actual timeframe itself. Please help.
Its ok to get the calculations at the close of the bar itself or for the previous bar from the chart. Image posted below.

I have a CHART that has different open / close from actual 1 min open/close due to various calculation which is beyond me.

Eg: from the image posted. Actual 1 min open = 515 close = 515.75

However chart suggests open = 504 close = 508.

Note: In simple terms, script to calculate open/close from an indicator listed on the chart would work too.

Thank you.

@Baappi You're using Heikin Ashi candles. Change them back to Candle in Style(top-right). Or are you trying to use HA and have open and close plotted on the HA candles?

generic.. tq for response, i am using a study....

code below... i would like to plot below length of each bar...just to see what is absolute value of (open - close). thanks again.

Hi it worked out...i just used the same code replaced ADDchart with Plots/below; and used high/open from the script. All good now, except not sure what i am trying to achieve..lol.

@Baappi @generic

Do you know how to mark the (standard) candle open of an 8 hour candle on another chart? I.E. 8 hour open on the daily chart?

 

[generic]

@hydroflask Not sure what 8 hour open is but the answers gonna be no since you can't go from higher to lower aggregation.

 

[hydroflask]

@generic I mean the open of the 8 hour candle
