Plot Close of After Hours

TCB

Member
Hi, I have this code that plots the open of pre market but I would like to be able to plot a line on the closing price of after hours trading. Any help on this would be appreciated, thanks

Code:
def day = GetDay();

def PMopenBar = day != day[1];

def PMOpen = if PMopenBar then open else PMOpen[1];

plot PMO = PMOpen ;

PMO.SetDefaultColor (CreateColor (234, 136, 255));
PMO.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
 
Hey I am stumped. I came up with this code below and it appears to work for the current day on some symbols (example SPY, but it didn't work on QQQs) but I would also like to be able to scroll back on the chart and see it in previous days also. Any suggestions
Code:
input marketClose = 2000;
def closeCounter = SecondsTillTime(marketClose);
def regSessEnd = closecounter[-1] == 0;
rec priorDayClose = if regSessEnd then close else priorDayClose[1];
plot data = priorDayClose;

@TCB There's no candle for QQQ at 2000 so close is equal to nothing. Try this.
Code:
input start = 1945;
input marketClose = 2000;
def closeCounter = SecondsTillTime(marketClose) >= 0 and SecondsFromTime(start) >= 0;
rec priorDayClose = if closecounter and !isnan(close) then close else priorDayClose[1];
plot data = priorDayClose;
