This is a workaround a TOS limitation, so it can happen.

Make sure that the timeframe you are using is compatiable with the higher aggregation. For example, if you are viewing a 3min chart, make sure it is divisable with no remainder into the higher timeframe. For example, if you are viewing a 3 min chart, you would have problems when overlaying a 5min higher agg, but you could overlay a 15min higher agg.

So if the above example is not the problem, please provide chart information if you want it tested, . A screen shot would be helpful with the problem you are having.

I have made one revision to the above cloud color to completely color the higher agg overlay as there was a gap. To do this, I just used another addcloud statement for each higher agg bar to fill the gap.

Thanks for the reply. My 15m overlay with 5m candles (and daily with 15m, 30m, 1hr) is fine with a much older version is what's confusing. But the Daily overlay for 4h or 4h overlay for 2h connects when there's a continuation in trend for some reason.

Here is a link to the grid in the image where the timeframes all seem to work with the overlays shown https://tos.mx/VsWP0td

Clouds do not appear in the lower chart due to a TOS limitation

it worked well 15 minutes TF over 5 minutes TF, but did not look good when I tried to overlay Weekly over Daily. How do we fix this?

Can you make it work for Higher TF Week and Lower TF Day?

When I used this study for Week vs Day Overly, the drawing is no longer working. Please see the screenshot attached.

This modification seems to work better on daily chart with weekly or monthly

Thank you very much! This is awesome.
BTW, how do we modify the code and make it paint the high and low of only Tue and Wed on daily chart as shown:

Is possible to make this code work for the study as shown? Basically, I would like to paint a box between 9:30-10:30 (EST) showing H,L,O,C for this time period

IMO, you would be better off using one of the many opening range indicators you can find on this site. In general, they will draw horizontal lines across to the right after your desired time period has ended.
 
Thank you very much for your comment. I did find this working code. however, it draws the horizontal lines to the left not to the right. Can you help me to fix it?

Thank you so much. Your coding skills are amazing, my friend. Is possible to add 4 horizontal lines for High, Low, Open, Close for that time period?

This overlay is based upon bars, which should work on most charts, versus time, which does not work well on renko/range charts.

Here is a 2 tick renko chart with the bars set to 10 using the code in the link. You can turn the volume shown on/off.
