I need a time entry variable.

Important times are 3:00 US time / 08:00 CET when dealers in Europe start " Start selling or buying programs

7:00 US Time the traders in the USA come to the office

look at it, it's impressive.

I hope you understood me. My English is very bad.

But what do you want to do ???

Do you want an arrow? Where do you want the arrow? Can you draw it out on your screenshot?
Do you want a line? From where to where?
Do you want a text saying "dealers in Europe start Start selling" ?
Do you want to enter a log in a file that the time is 3:00 US time?

What do you want to do ???

What is your chart resolution?
It makes a difference on how you program.

Try this

Code: Select all

input:
Open.US( 30000 );

if time_s >= Open.us and time_s[1] < Open.us then
plot1 ( h*2, "Open.US" ); // plot style set as histogram
