how to get the high/low/close of the current trading day up to a bar on 3min chart?

[hitormiss]

on the 3min chart, would like to get the high/low/close of the current trading day up to the bar the cursor pointing to, instead of getting the high/low/close of the current day up to the last bar? so, if starting from certain bar, the price goes up, then the high of day of the last bar is higher than the starting bar's high of day. thx

thinkscript can't interact with a cursor.

it sounds like you want to find,
the HLC of a group of bars,
that start at the days open,
and stops before the current bar.

you will have to come up with a way to define the the ending bar.
time of day or duration from start,
x bars from start bar,
x bars back from current bar,
.....

Thanks for the reply. I may want arrays to store H/L/Cs since 09:30 EST as bars move forward for a regular trading day. a group/subset of bars may do the job. but I am not sure how to do this in thinkscript. Is there any sample I can look into for a reference? TIA!

I am looking for an indicator that automatically calculates the highs to the lows, lows to high in intraday chart and for the week. Like yesterday, market was down let see -2% and rallied to +2%, that's a 4% move. I like an indicator which is based on this move from price.

Thanks for your help!

ALSO, I was wondering, is there any possibility to have this:

in a histogram on a daily move? I am trying to play around with this code and already had this code changed to 1 day, but love to have it ytd on a daily basis (that you can see on a daily, like that from yesterday, wednesday etc.). Thanks for your help!

maybe this will help,

show 3 colored columns, after the last bar, that represent the price ranges of 3 time periods, day, week, month.

Thank you, I have tried this yesterday. This is not what I was looking for.

I used so far the following codes; but love to have this on a daily chart for let say last 200 days. Now I only can see through the labels of just one day.
High to low:
def Highday = Highest(highday, 1) ;
plot percentage = Round((Low / High - 1) * 100);
AddLabel(yes, "Last: " +Low +" | High: " +High +" | %: " +percentage, color.orange);plot Data = close;


Off the low to close:
def lowest = lowest(low, 1) ;
plot percentage = Round((close / low - 1) * 100);
AddLabel(yes, "Last: " +close +" | Low: " +low +" | %: " +percentage, color.pink);plot Data = close;


High of the day to close:
def Highday = Highest(highday, 1) ;
plot percentage = Round((close / High - 1) * 100);
AddLabel(yes, "Last: " +close +" | High: " +High +" | %: " +percentage, color.blue);plot Data = close;

Love to work on these labels:

• Open to high
• Open to low
• Close to high
• Close to low

on the 3min chart, would like to get the high/low/close of the current trading day up to the bar the cursor pointing to, instead of getting the high/low/close of the current day up to the last bar? so, if starting from certain bar, the price goes up, then the high of day of the last bar is higher than the starting bar's high of day. thx

I made the above, as I could not find this myself. Someone made this code a little different and I changed to do the following. I hope this may work for you. This code changes with the timeframe, you can use it for any timeframe.
