I don't think this is an aggregation question, but it relates to the time period for when a vertical line is plotted with reference to another ticker.
Simple idea, I want a vertical line to plot on an /ES or /NQ chart when a StochasticFullDiff signal fires for /VX.
Been striking out the past two nights trying to figure out why when I have this code loaded on a /VX chart it plots the signals (vertical lines) during all 23 hours of trading; however, when I open this study on /ES or /NQ this study only plots mostly during RTHs, during other times of the day the signals flips but it as if, for some reason the signals don't fire all the time when it's not during RTHs.
I even removed the reference portion of the default StochasticFullDiff script in order to remove any possible issues with referencing /VX as the ticker. Resulted in the same problem with /VX plotting 23 hours and only plotting /ES or /NQ sparingly outside of RTHs.
Starting to think my problem lies in the AddVerticalLine code.
