Ea to Indicator

New comment
 

when I run it in tester the following code nicely draws me vertical lines, each day at the New York open. . I want to make it into an indicator

so when I'm looking at historical charts, I don't have to go blind trying to read the open time.

int start()
  {

   if(Hour()==8){
ObjectCreate(StringConcatenate(A,TimeCurrent()),OBJ_VLINE,0,Time[0],Ask);}
   

   return(0);
  }

I can't see why this won't work as an indicator, tried inserting IndicatorCounted(); but since there is no buffer could not see any point in it and it didn't work.

Other than that possibility I am stumped.

When loaded there are no errors, just a color choice dialog box.

Thoughts, ideas, opinions, wild guesses and the correct answer all deeply appreciated.

Hey Keith,

Here's an indicator that is close to what you're looking for. Maybe this will give you what you need - or form a basis to work from:

'Indicator of Trading Sessions'

Hey Tovan

That's better than perfect; works great for me as is and I can likely extend if for another project that I had in mind.

Many thanks

Keith
