I normally use the ETH session for CL. The indicator plots the open range at the start of Globex session. I cant seem to find a combination of sessions that will allow me to use my normal ETH session template and have the indie plot the RTH open.
I suppose I am just dense here but I've never used a session other than the ETH or RTH supplied with NT.
Any suggestions on how to make it work properly would be helpful.
Thanks.
Indie settings I currently have
Session template settings:
I read the thread start to finish and I see where I asked this same question earlier. I also remember building a session template like the one you suggested and now I remember it never worked and I just gave up. Is it possible to simply post a zip file with the session template you suggest for CL? I don't know if thats possible or not.

Here is the session template that I use with 6E. It is not totally in line with 6E market hours, as I favor a break for the London open instead of the break for the end of RTH session at 2:00 PM CT.
(a) set the indicator to the first session and enter an offset of + 15:00 hours (ETH Open is at 6:00 PM, RTH open is at 9:00 AM, the difference is therefore 15 hours)
(b) set the indicator to the second session (yes, I know there is no second session) and enter an offset of -8:15 hours. (ETH close is at 5:15 PM, RTH open is at 9:00 AM, the difference is therefore - 8:15 hours)
The second option has an advantage. The indicator will not display pre-session highs and lows, if you select the first session. With the second session this is possible. Chart attached.
The lines plotted on the chart are drawn by your 3rd instance of the indicator, which you have set to the US session. You have selected to show the European session high and low, and that is what the indicator displays.
You can set that third instance to
Full : high and low of entire pre-session will be drawn
Asian: high and low of Asian session will be drawn
European: high and low of European session will be drawn
