Hi,

Excuse the screenshot attached, but I want to divide my chart up into the respective Symbol sessions, such as RTH, Tokyo, London etc. Is this possible to do with study overlay on a chart?

Thanks
Tim

How exactly are you wanting to divide up your screen?

If you want to have a different colored background for different times, then refer to the following:
Time Range Highlight

If you want a vertical line at certain times, then refer to the following:

Hi John,

I'm hoping to get somewhere close to this style of session division, this is MT5 and studies I bought I use are for a particular style of trading, but I'm wanting to cross over gradually to SC completely by emulating as much as I can on SC before getting some custom work done perhaps. As a start its sessions times, then later emulating more and more of the study set I use on MT5 in SC, they're all just time frame and order flow related, with more advanced studies/custom charts to perhaps be coded later once I have basics in place. Important though I get as close as I can to this (will post separately about the TPO chart on the right hand margin). "EPH23M30.png"

For instance, I've set the Vertical Grid up which clearly shows sessions, however I dont seem to be able to VbP to start a new session on the switch over from Overnight Session, to the RTH session. "Sessions Screenshot"

Thanks
Tim

Use the High/Low for Time Period study for each session you want and set the Subgraphs to use one of the Top/Bottom Fill options. Refer to the following for information on the Top/Bottom draw styles:
