I am a SC user and trying to use MC. I cannot figure out some simple stuff..... I want to :

1. Automatically plot previous day's hi and lo from PIT session on a globex 5 min chart.

2. I want to plot overnight hi and lo on globex 5 min chart

3. I want to plot open of current pit session on my globex 5 min chart.


Appreciate any help on this.

Traderwolf,

does the Globex chart include or exclude the Pit session? If it's the latter the best way in my opinion is sending the values from a Pit session chart using EasyLanguage Collections.

The globex chart includes the pit session.

Wolf,

in this case you can track the values all from one chart. Something basic like the study below does the trick with plots and can serve as a framework. One idea for example would be to use trendlines instead of plots.

Code

Inputs: PitStartTime (830), PitEndTime (1515); Variables: HavePitSession (false), HavePitReset (false), HaveGlobexReset (false), DayOpen (0), PitHigh (0), PitLow (0), ETHHigh (0), ETHLow (0), GlobexHigh (-999999), GlobexLow (+999999), DayHigh (-999999), DayLow (+999999); //reset flags and daily extremes on new day if Date <> Date[1] then begin HavePitReset = false; DayHigh = -999999; DayLow = +999999; end; //check for pit session HavePitSession = false; HavePitSession = HavePitSession or (Time > PitStartTime and Time <= PitEndTime); //in pit session track open and session extremes if HavePitSession then begin if HavePitReset = false then begin HavePitReset = true; //store the open DayOpen = Open; //reset globex tracking variables GlobexHigh = -999999; GlobexLow = +999999; end; if High > DayHigh then DayHigh = High; if Low < DayLow then DayLow = Low; PitHigh = DayHigh; PitLow = DayLow; end //track globex extremes else begin if High > GlobexHigh then GlobexHigh = High; if Low < GlobexLow then GlobexLow = Low; ETHHigh = GlobexHigh; ETHLow = GlobexLow; end; //plot values if PitHigh <> 0 then Plot1(PitHigh, "Pit High"); if PitLow <> 0 then Plot2(PitLow, "Pit Low"); if DayOpen <> 0 then Plot3(DayOpen, "Pit Open"); if ETHHigh <> 0 then Plot4(ETHHigh, "Globex High"); if ETHLow <> 0 then Plot5(ETHLow, "Globex Low");

Thanks!
