Can someone turn this thinkscript into a ninjascript. 5PM CST OHL and Previous Day

[Option Whisperer]

Ninja's built in previous day OHLC and current day OHLC begin plotting at midnight. As we know, the futures new trading day begins 5PM CST and not midnight. I have a thinkscript I use on thinkorswim that plots all this for me and has chart bubbles to identify the lines with the ability to set colors etc. It would be cool if some genorus thinkscript developer would take this close and make a ninjascript that will do the same. Code is attached.

Huh? Mine doesn't do that.

These indicators start plotting from the start of the
session, as defined by Data Series > Trading Hours
setting -- which is a per chart setting.

I bet yours is set to 'Default 24 x 7', which causes the
start of the session to be midnight.

Change it to '<Use instrument settings>' and also
make sure the instrument itself is set to the default,
and then it should start plotting at the normal session
open.

Have you tried that?

Make sure your chart templates are set to use the
default '<Use instrument setting>' so that all new
charts automatically define the session correctly.

Thanks. This was on an NKD chart. The only way to get things to work right on that chart is to have it set to 24/7. But I looked at my other charts and it does correctly plot overnight open on instrument settings. Not sure what it is about NKD that we have to have the data series different.

How so?

Is that due to 'things' you've purchased?

Using 'Default 24/7' for real-time charts means your
charts are being sabotaged. That is, that setting will
cause your charts to lie to you, because the chart is
lying to the indicators.

If you've purchased indicators that require that setting,
then unfortunately that setting will screw with several
normal, useful indicators that are standard with NT.

Caveat emptor.
