When you set the Input for "One Period Only at End of Chart", this changes the nature of how the time is calculated, such that the lines are calculated for a rolling period, rather than relative to the Session Times. Refer to the information for this Input in the following section:
TPO Value Area Lines: Inputs

Since you want your lines to only be present for the RTH session, you need to set "One Period Only at End of Chart" to "No".

The downside of this is that you will then have lines drawn for all the days in your chart and not just for the current day. A few ways to work around this:
- Use a separate chart that has just a single day loaded in it and put the "TPO Value Area Lines" study in that chart. Then use the "Study/Price Overlay" to overlay that information to the chart with multiple days.

- Set the "TPO Value Area Lines" study on the chart as you have been, but set it to be "Hidden". Then use the "Spreadsheet Study" to control where the lines are actually displayed. For instance, to get the "TPO POC" line drawn for the current day, you would enter the following formula in cell K3:
==IF(INT(A3) = TODAY(), ID1.SG1@3, 0)

Where ID1 is the ID of the TPO Value Area Lines study, SG1 is the TPO POC subgraph of the TPO Value Area Lines Study and @3 means to use the data from the 3rd row.
