Plotting Time Levels Code

[ducati95]

Hello, long time lurker, but first post.

I'm looking for a code that can automatically plot time levels instead of doing it by hand. For example, if I wanted to plot 20-30 time levels on the same day I would have to put them on the chart and then manually edit each one. What the code could look like is you put the times you wanted in a section of the code (copy and pasted) separated by commas, and it would plot these time levels.

Any nudge in the right direction towards accomplishing this would be appreciated.

no idea what a time level is.
can you describe what you want to see on a chart? vertical lines ?

this draws vertical lines at several times of the day

That's pretty close to what I was looking for, but a lot simpler. Yes vertical lines, TOS calls them time levels in the add drawings option.

The code seems to plot vertical lines at specific times, but I was looking for a code that simply does this without anything else. And say you had 20-30 specific times you wanted to plot, you could just copy and paste the times into the code.

The above code:

# ranges of time est
input rng01_start = 0930;
input rng01_stop = 0935;

input rng02_start = 0950;
input rng02_stop = 1010;

input rng03_start = 1025;
input rng03_stop = 1035;

The code I had in mind:

"Plot vertical lines at following times"
8:35, 9:03, 10:04, 11:16....

Thanks for your response.
