Hello All,
I've been looking for quite some time now on the forum with no luck, an indicator that will calculate the mid point of a specific time range, for example if I want to decide to indicate the midpoint (halfback) of the time range 9AM ET - 2:30 PM ET , or if I want to do it for a time range that involve the overnight session, reason I ask is, because my charts are 24/7 and will prefer to keep it that way.

Really appreciate the help.

I have coded a few session indicators that allow you to plot

- the midpoint of the regular session of the prior day
- the midpoint of the regular session of the current day

To catch the regular session, you would need to use a specific session template that divides the day into night session, regular session and evening session.

Charts attached. Both indicators can be downloaded with the SessionPivots package.








In case that you wish to keep a session template 24/7, you can use the opening range indicator. However, you cannot use it to plot a midsession line for a period which includes the day break.
