Post From: Any method to have the Daily OHLC start at a time later than the chart session start time?

Hi,

I trade equities and Previous Day High and Previous Day Low are important levels to watch. However, values from the previous day "premarket" (anything before 9:30 AM EST) are never used by traders in establishing that day's High and Low. I'm running into a problem because I need to start my chart session time at 4AM so I can see the current day premarket trading. When I apply the Daily OHLC study (reference 1 day back), It will calculate the Previous Day low starting from my 4AM EST chart session start time, whereas I need it to start from 9:30 AM EST.

Is there a way around this issue or perhaps is there another indicator that might accomplish this goal of obtaining the previous day high and low starting at a time that is later than the chart's session start time?
