Hello, thought I'd start a new thread for this request just in case someone is interested in taking it on. I also posted to the "code your indicators for free" thread but it didn't seem to get much of a warm reception over there. Much appreciated if someone wants to give it a go. Cheers!
I'm wondering if anyone is interested in coding the following: I'm basically looking for an indicator that will plot horizontal lines for the PREVIOUS day's market sessions (open , high, low, close) onto the CURRENT day's chart. The horizontal lines will reset, be removed and then be redrawn each new day and the lines will always be from the previous day's sessions and not the current day's sessions.
So for example, on today's chart I would see the previous day's Sydney, Tokyo, Frankfurt, London and NY open, high, low and close prices as horizontal lines. I'm not interested in seeing them all at once so I would like the ability to turn each line on or off. For brokers with Sunday candles, Friday's session information would be displayed through Monday's close. Variables would look something like this for each of the five sessions; using Sydney as an example:
Text variables apply to all labels:
Text font (user input variable)
Text size (user input variable)
Text spacing (user input variable; # of pixels above horizontal line)
// Text color = each session's horizontal line color
// Text label will appear just above each horizontal line on the far right and is defined by the "label text" input values
Sydney open time (user input variable (to accommodate different broker time zones))
Sydney close time (user input variable (to accommodate different broker time zones))
Display Sydney Open (Yes or No) (drop-down variable)
Sydney Open Line Color (color picker or user input variable)
Sydney Open Line Style (drop-down)
