Previous Day’s Regular Hours High/Low/Close +

ThinkScripter — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 02:58:28 +0000

Here’s a custom script a reader commissioned me to build. It displays the previous day’s regular trading hours high/low/close as well as two custom pivots. The script works on both 24H charts as well as Trading Hours only charts. The custom pivots are defined as follows:

1) yesterday’s high + (yesterday’s high-two day’s ago high)
2) yesterday’s low + (yesterday’s low-two day’s ago low)
