    Indicator High/Low bar "open" line plot- need programmer help

    It seems so simple on paper, but although I did try to create this indicator I just cannot seem to get my mind around all the coding required - I really did make a real attempt to learn this -but its just not getting in (for now).

    All I need to do is plot a line of the "Open" of a 5min bar (or any other time period) which is bar that is also the daily high or low of that day -intraday only. So it will plot only the open price with a line (with price # text on it) after it is determined that within the bars range it is the high or low of the day -obviously calculated on bars close. All prior bars that were once high or low of day-their "open "lines should then disappear as they lose new high/low status.

    Now - as a filter - to plot a valid indicator line - for high of day bar - the close must be greater than open, and for low of day bar - the close must be less than open.

    I am at the mercy of your help with this - I will be happy to take whatever anyone can begin to create and perhaps I can then learn to edit it and add and learn Ninjascript in the process.

    UPDATE - I added this to the correct forum - Indicator development thread.

    Thank you in advance. Rob

    Have a look at the indicator called "CurrentDayOHL"
    If you only want to track the Open, High & Low of the Day session - simply set your "Data Series" to the RTH (RegularTradingHours) setting
    To track OHL of the Globex Session chose Data Series ETH

      Thanks, I have looked into that indicator before, but its not really what I was looking for. I have posted this over to the indicator develepment thread and koganam has been kind enough in helping me.
