Hello,
I'm trying to create a script where color of price bar is blue solely based on the time.

ie. on 30 min timeframe; 9:30AM - 10:00AM & 1:30PM - 2:00PM price bar is blue (regardless of price action), all else remain green/red (depending on price action).

Can anyone help with this?

@meeks,

I think you're looking for something like this. You can add this study multiple times and configure different time windows.

JayC

 
Code
input startTime = 0900;
input endTime = 1100;
def timeWindow = SecondsFromTime(startTime) >= 0 and SecondsFromTime(endTime) < 0;

AssignPriceColor(if timeWindow then Color.BLUE else Color.CURRENT);
