Hi Chris ,
thanks for this stuff.
question: does it work for all the time zone ?
I use NY (UTC-4) time and I notice that the indicator Highlights Bars days wrongly !!
SumrallBill
Installed into my Favorites yesterday. After running 13 months I was surprised at the day of week which had the most 'Up' days. For my issue it was Wednesday by far, followed by Friday, then Thursday. Monday and Tuesday weren't worth getting out of bed for. Thanks.

Can this be implemented for Thinkor Swim script?
pcmourao
Shouldn't this script Highlight for example Monday with 1 color if it's an upday and with another color if it's a down day instead of highlighting all day's with same color?

You can code a Bar Color with any rules you like. I'm not following your question. If your referring to Daily bars...I recommend hollow candlesticks...that way you can highlight Mondays for example with a specific color...and if it's a Hollow candlestick you know it's an up day...and solid would = down day.

If your referring to Intra-Day candles...this is slightly more difficult because if your highlighting one day then it would be easy to assign two different colors....but if your highlighting all 5 days with different colors...then creating a rule like that would require 10 different colors...and looking at 10 different colors in my opinion would be difficult to easily memorize when looking at charts.

The purpose of this code...is two things:
#1 to be able to highlight a daily bar a specific color to visually see if there is a historical trend for that day...again using Hollow Candlesticks lets you know if it is up or down.

#2 to be able to get a quick snapshot of Intra-Day bars by day of the week.

The code accomplishes both of those purposes. Your more than welcome to modify the code any way you like. If you have a specific question about how to code it to accomplish specific criteria...feel free to leave another comment and I will show you how.
