Create simple close price indicator

  Hi all

  I am trying to create a simple indicator to show the closing price at 6:45 am on the chart to change each day at 6:45 am. I have tried to program this but have failed spectacularly (I am absolutely new to all of this!).  Here’s the code I have created – please can someone give me a clue (or preferably the solution!) as to how to get it to do what I want it to do. I can see that the code doesn’t look at the price each day (just for one day) which obviously wont work but I don’t know where to even go to in order to work it out – but very happy to put in the effort!

  Thanks
  James

  // This indicator shows the close price of 6:30am 15m candlestick ie the close at 6:45am a = (Time = 064500) RETURN Close [a]

  1 2 3 4 5

  // This indicator shows the close price of 6:30am 15m candlestick ie the close at 6:45am   a = (Time = 064500)   RETURN Close [a]

  If you want to change on what bar/time the chart day begins, you need to change the timezone. To just show the 064500 price in an indicator, see below.

  If you are using for example the 15 minute time frame, you can do this :

   

  once LastClose = 0 if time>063000 and time<070000 then LastClose=close endif return LastClose

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7

  once LastClose = 0   if time>063000 and time<070000 then LastClose=close endif   return LastClose
