I need the HOD from Opening not premarket

New member
I have this study that calculates the Percentage from Previous close-Open, Open to LAst, Open to HOD, Pullback from HOD,
but it always takes the High of PRemarket if I have premarket data open..... Im getting frustrated.... I hope someone can help

my code is:
Code:
#Created by Arlette Rosario
#Display percentage change from yesterday and from open

#- Certain time from 9:30-16:00
def alertPeriodStart = 0930;
def alertPeriodEnd = 1600;
def startCounter = SecondsFromTime(alertPeriodStart);
def endCounter = SecondsTillTime(alertPeriodEnd);
def alertPeriod = if startCounter >= 0 and endCounter >= 0 then 1 else 0;

#-------------------------------------------------------

input length=10;
input period= aggregationPeriod.DAY;
input displaylabel=yes;

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#This calculaes Percentage change From High to current until Close of the Day
#In other words Percentage Retracement or pullback
#input percentGain = 20.0;

#plot priorDayClose = close(period = AggregationPeriod.DAY)[1]
def percentRetrace = 10.0;
plot priorDayClose = close(period = AggregationPeriod.DAY)[1];
priorDayClose.SetDefaultColor(Color.GRAY);
priorDayClose.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
def newDay = GetDay() <> GetDay()[1];
rec trackHighOfDay = if newDay then open(period = period)[0] else if high[0] > trackHighOfDay[1] then high else trackHighOfDay[1];
plot highOfDay = trackHighOfDay[0];
highOfDay.SetDefaultColor(Color.CYAN);
highOfDay.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
def gain = 100 * (high / priorDayClose - 1);
def retrace = 100*((close(period=period)[0]-HighOfDay)/HighOfDay);

rec hasRetraced = if newDay then 0 else if retrace < -percentRetrace then 1 else hasRetraced[1];
def signal = hasRetraced and !hasRetraced[1] and alertPeriod; #AddChartBubble(signal, low, Concat(retrace, "% Pullback"), Color.RED, no);




#This Calculated percentage retracement from High to current pullback including after market
#AddLabel(alertPeriod , "% PullBack from High :" + Round(percentRetrace, 2)+ " %",color.LiGHT_ORANGE);




#----------------------------------------------------
#percentage change from Close to Open
def changeclose= ((open(period = period)[0]- close(period = period)[1])/close(period = period)[1])*100;

#percentage change from Open to current
def changeOpen= ((close(period = period)[0]- open(period = period)[0])/open(period = period)[0])*100;

#def changeFromHigh to current pullback
def retrace2=100*((close(period=period)[0]-HighOfDay[0])/HighOfDay[0]);

#def Changeclose From Open to HOD
def OpenHOD=((HighOfDay- open(period = period)[0])/open(period = period)[0])*100;



#current volume today
def dayvolume = volume(period = period)[0];
def dayavgvolume= average(volume(period= period)[1],length);

#------------ Displays----------
#Display Changeclose percentage from Prev Day close until current (premarket)
addlabel(displaylabel ,"PRevClose-Open:" + round(changeclose,2) + "%",if
changeclose<0 then color.RED else color.GREEN);

#Display Percentage change from Open to current or close
addlabel(displaylabel ,"Open-Last :" + round(changeopen,2) + "%",if
changeopen<0 then color.RED else color.GREEN);

#Dispplay percentage changeclose from Open to HOD
addlabel(displaylabel ,"Open-HOD :" + round(OpenHOD,2) + "%", color.CYAN);

#Dispplay percentage changeclose from Open to HOD
AddLabel(displaylabel , "PullBack from HOD:" + Round(retrace2, 2)+ " %",color.LiGHT_ORANGE);


#Display Average Volume from a period of time default is 10(Days) you can change it
addlabel(displaylabel ,"Avg Vol"+length + "Days: " + round(dayavgvolume,0), color.yellow);

This hopefully will help you as a new member to see where the calculations come from and are what you want. I have reorganized the script to help you accomplish this.

There is a debug input that will show where some of the data originates. You can hide the debug labels by selecting NO at the input.

Also, an input to choose DAY (which includes non regular trading hours) and RTH (regular trading hours 0930 - 1600). This will allow you to see the computations in the labels done by your selection (... and to determine if the are accurate).
