OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Updated Previous & Current Day Levels
Pine Script indicator that displays key price levels from the previous trading day and the current day's opening price on your chart.
What it displays:
The script draws four horizontal reference lines across your chart:
Previous Day High (PDH) - The highest price reached yesterday
Previous Day Low (PDL) - The lowest price reached yesterday
Previous Day Close (PDC) - Yesterday's closing price
Daily Open (DO) - Today's opening price
Key features:
Visual customization - You can adjust colors, line styles (solid/dashed/dotted), line thickness, and text size for all levels
Label positioning - Labels can be offset to the right of the current price action to keep them visible and out of the way
Flexible display - Choose between full descriptive labels ("Prev Day High") or shorthand abbreviations ("PDH")
Performance optimization - The script limits how far back lines are drawn (configurable up to 5000 bars) to prevent rendering issues
Clean presentation - Each level includes a solid horizontal line from its starting point, plus a dotted connector line extending to the label
Why traders use it:
These levels are important reference points for intraday traders. Previous day levels often act as support/resistance zones, and the daily open helps identify potential trend direction. The script automatically updates these levels each day, making it easy to track key price areas without manual drawing.
