Show arrows only for the current day

[marcusplexus]

Hi,

I developped an indicator which writes upArrows and downArrows on a chart when a specific condition is met. Because I use intraday data over a period of many months, I end up with millions of arrows printed on my charts.

What should I look into (method/function) in order to come up with a restriction (IF, THEN) that looks for intraday bars belonging to the current day only.? This way I will have bars printed only for the current trading day, not the whole year.

Thank you for your help.

Hello MarcusPlexus,

One way to do this is by adding an additional condition that checks if the date portion of a bar matches the date of your system clock.

Example:
if (ToDay(Time[0]) == ToDay (DateTime.Now))

Excellent. That's what I was looking for.

Have a nice day.
