Time-input Lines [MFX]

How it works

The indicator generates horizontal and vertical lines at predefined time points, with default settings focusing on the equity market opening at 9:30. It plots a horizontal line extending for a set duration, typically 60 minutes, representing the full opening range spectrum. Users can customize the start time, line duration, and visual properties like color, style, and width.

The lines serve as visual markers to help traders identify and track specific market sessions or time-based trading zones. By allowing precise time zone adjustments with UTC/GMT offsets, the indicator provides flexibility for traders operating across different global markets and time regions.
