OHLC indicator

Postby shanemcdonald » 23 Sep 2014

Hi

Anyone have a basic OHLC indicator where you can set the times ?
I tried custom session time, but OHLC still reflected 24 hour default with 2359 end of day.

Hello shanemcdonald,

So how exactly do you want to set the times?

Maybe by Globex time . 1800-1715.

I made a custom template with session end box checked, but it still went by 2359 / midnight.

  1. What is the chart resolution?
  2. What is the time zone selected in the chart settings?
  3. What is the exchange of the symbol in QuoteManager?

Well with the standard indicator , you have to use regular charts.
EST is the time zone and I select local time.

Can I ask how you set a chart up to base the ohlc off of 1800-1715 session ?

And I use a few charts . 34 point , 14 renko , and some minute charts.
