Percentage / Price Change Indicator for Extended Hours trading with TOS

Hi everyone.

I am an SSE transplant that has been very recently moved to TOS. I very much miss one of the features of SSE and am wondering if there is an ThinkScript available for this.

For pre-market and after-hours, SSE had an "Extended Hours" price AND percentage indicator (see screenshot, circled in red). It would show up in both Total View (Level 2) or on chart.

However, TOS seems only to update the current bid/ask with no "new" price or even percentage indicator within the chart, level 2, T&S, news or any other boxes (gadgets) (as shown in the other screenshot).

The PERCENTAGE indicator would be so helpful, especially for Earnings, for which many stocks have options Implied volatility (IV) move - in percentages. Sure, I can have a separate column in the Watch List (under Extended Sessions Percentage Change) but it's just not in front of you as you are trying to stay focused on Chart / Level 2 / trade box.

Any help is very much appreciated!

i don't know what that percentage number represents.

if you tell us when the 2 prices exist, that are used to calculate a percentage change, someone should be able to make something.
