High and Low in a Given Date/Time Range
This Pine Script v5 indicator plots horizontal lines at both the highest and lowest price levels reached within a user-defined date/time range.
Description:
Inputs:
The user specifies a start and an end date/time by providing the year, month, day, hour, and minute for each. These inputs are converted into timestamps based on the chart’s timezone.
How It Works:
Timestamp Conversion: The script converts the provided start and end dates/times into timestamps using the chart’s timezone.
Bar Check: It examines every bar and checks if the bar’s timestamp falls between the start and end timestamps.
Price Updates:
If a bar’s time is within the specified range, the indicator updates the highest price if the current bar's high exceeds the previously recorded high, and it updates the lowest price if the current bar's low is lower than the previously recorded low.
Drawing Lines:
A red horizontal line is drawn at the highest price, and a green horizontal line is drawn at the lowest price. Both lines start from the first bar in the range and extend dynamically to the current bar, updating as new high or low values are reached.
End of Range: Once a bar's time exceeds the end timestamp, the lines stop updating.
This tool offers a clear and straightforward way to monitor key price levels during a defined period without any extra fluff.
