Different TPO Colours for Different Markets?

Hi,

I would like to have a different colour for my TPO charts for different market sessions: London, CME, Asia

I tried different options in the TPO settings, but the colours seem to be shifting randomly. I would like to have the "yellow" for the London session, and ideally that would stay as yellow.

Is there a way to achieve that? For now I just used a background colour, but that is not I need.

Thanks.

You can make this happen for 2 sessions by having your Session Times set to one period for the day session and another for the evening session. Refer to the following for the settings you would need on the TPO for the different colors:

Thanks!

There are 5 x 2, 10 in total, time range slots, I thought that those are somehow for that purpose. And I can achieve 4 different ranges with those. But the colours that are set later are inconsistent.

There are 1-18 colour slots, and the [00:00:00-00:06:59] range (1) gets "yellow" for example, and the other ranges pick up their colours, but then they keep shifting around for some reason.

There are those other ranges to allow for different time ranges. But, as you are finding, there is no way to specifically color them. The colors 1-18 are for coloring the different letters. Refer to the following for more information on those colors:
