i run default 24/7 charts and i was wondering if there is a way in NT7 or if there is an extension that allows us to color code(highlight) certain hours of the day on the chart. obv with user defined colors and times.

Yes, there is such an indicator. I believe it is called TimeZoneColors... and you can use it to highlight 3 separate time regions for every instance of the indicator that you place on the chart.

Happy Trading,

The TimeZoneColors indicator is loacted here:

Also there is another indicator here, which colors the background of your chart according to specific times:

BB MACD Here's the zip for the Color Time Regions indicator.

This one colors the background according to a session template.

What exactly do you want to color?

i want all the 24/7 data, but i want to fiddle around with coloring the US market open/close, futures downtime, etc.. TOS does this for me automatically so i was gunna try and do it on NT 7..

I think you better start with the first of the three links.
