Hello, I use Daily OHLC study to determine OHL of a session.....HOWEVER, what I really want is the HIGHEST CLOSE and LOWEST CLOSE of the session.... Is this possible within this study? If not, how do I do this? And if I can do this - can I have naked reference lines shown as well? Thanks

Go to the study settings and choose how many days back you want it to refere to. By default is set to 1 I think (1 day back or "yesterday"), for the current session just type 0... (0 days).

HI Alberto, I have REF days back = 0, and days to calculate = 10...Which gives me 10 days of session Hi/Low's. However, I would like HIGHEST "CLOSING" PRICE and LOWEST "CLOSING" PRICE of the session, not the absolute HI/LO of the day. There does not appear to be any setting for this, unless I use CLOSE, but how does it distinguish between Hi/LO CLOSE?

The numbers of days back to calculate doesn´t matter, it is just for plotting purposes. The name of the study is Open High Low Close, if a parameter you seek is not in the study settings, then there is nothing you can do. The OHLC study gives you the open, the highest high of the day, the lowest low of the day and the closing price. There is no highest close or lowest close and frankly, if you know the highest high and lowest low, you just need to quickly check in which candle happened and then easily determine the closing prices you want to know...

I"m already using DAILY OHLC. I am considering using the Horizontal line study, where I can plot multiple values (which would be the "closes")....However, those numbers change during the course of the day...bit of a pain to keep changing, unless there's some way to do it dynamically?
