Bars.GetSessionBar(int sessionsAgo).Close


how does it know the session time range that i want. does it automatically determine this based on the chart?


Example 1

i plot 5 minute bars from 900 to 1600.


Bars.GetSessionBar(1).Close //gives me the close price of the 1600 bar on the previous day?


Example 2
i plot 5 minute bars from 900 to 1200.


Bars.GetSessionBar(1).Close //gives me the close price of the 1200 bar on the previous day?
