Securities day session - Opening-Range- Jayy Opening Range (OR) for regular daytime session eg NYSE 0 930hrs to 1600 hrs.
This is not for Forex sessions which is addressed in a separate script.
This script fixes two issues:
syntax error when code compiles
flaky plotting of the opening range and targets that required page reloading
Additions:
In this code there are more more opening range time period choices at the bottom of the format dialogue box
Opening Range Targets:
Opening Range Targets as per Leaf_West
Targets are set at 127% , 162%, 200 %, 262 %, 362%, 423%, 685%, 1109% and 1794% and this can be traded intraday using methods described at charts-by-leaf.com I also have some Leaf West PDFs that describe how the targets are set and how they are traded. There are others that use opening range.
See the notes in the script for more detail.
My first opening range script originated from work done by Chris Moody. This script has changed significantly but there are small remnants of Chris Moody's script lurking within.
This script is available to all.
Cheers Jayy
