I created a special session template so I could separate each RTH session for better reading.
Since that special session template falls inside ETH session this was straight forward.
The problem is now doing something similar with ETH session.
The idea is to create similar "empty space" between the ETH and the RTH sessions.
Since the ETH ends at 830 and the RTH begins at 830 I have no time available to create a session template to "separate" both sessions.
So my question is how to do this?
Is there a way to create that "empty space" between sessions despite there's no time between them?

Hello,
Unfortunately no, it is not possible to do this in current version of MC. Please leave us such feature request.

Re: how to create a special session template?
What I do to separate the sessions, is to "paint" them separate colors- similar to the attached chart..
Do a search for "paint the town red" ....if interested in the free code to get you started..

Re: how to create a special session template?
For bar charts, yes, that option is great but for TPO charts it's preferable (easier to the eyes) to have a blank space separating the sessions.What I do to separate the sessions, is to "paint" them separate colors- similar to the attached chart..

Another way would be to color the letters differently...

Re: how to create a special session template?
I plot the study to color the background and I guess that I can live with this. It's actually better than coloring the letters.
It seems that everytime the price scale is changed the plot gets messed up
I ended up creating a feature request for a TPO bar type instead of the "blank space".

I'm using the study coded by ABC which is an awesome study but all those letters do weight on the computer resources. If I go beyond 6 days MC becomes really slow.
So I'm requesting for MC developers to create a TPO bar type.
I don't think this will be hard to code. It's a regular bar that instead of a vertical line, has letters.
One of the things market profile users complaint is the fact that they cannot use any studies on it.
A bar type such as this one will allow to plot any study a trader want/code on a TPO chart.

Code: Select all
inputs:
startRTH (830),
endRTH (1515),
backgroundColor (rgb(25,25,25));
variables:
highScale (0),
lowScale (0);
highScale = GetAppInfo(aiHighestDispValue);
lowScale = GetAppInfo(aiLowestDispValue);
if time > startRTH and time <= endRTH then begin
plot3(highScale, "hiRTH", backgroundColor);
plot4(lowScale, "loRTH", backgroundColor);
end;
