Summing from a specific bar time

  Hello,

  in a intraday setting, what’s the best and most effective code to sum the lows and highs of every bar starting from the 10am bar and resetting each day at intradaybarindex=0? Code has to work across all intraday timeframes ie starts summing from 10am bar onwards (including the 10am bar itself)

  If IntraDayBarIndex = 0 then HIs = 0 LOs = 0 Endif If OpenTime >= 100000 then HIs = HIs + high LOs = LOs + low Endif

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

  If IntraDayBarIndex = 0 then    HIs = 0    LOs = 0 Endif If OpenTime >= 100000 then   HIs = HIs + high   LOs = LOs + low Endif

  HIs and LOs will retain the sums you need.

  It hasn’t worked accurately. Something needs to be fixed.

  Incidentally if I run the below test code:

  b= opentime = 100000
  return b

  It returns 1 at every opentime = 100000 including today, yesterday and every history day in chart.

  I need it to return 1 on ONLY the 10am bar of the current trading day.

  It is working thank you. I was not counting the current bar 🙂
