You can't. What I can suggest is to use the pivot indicator. Depending on your preferences it allows you to display different values for the HLC. You can disable all values for the prior days. However, you will need to use a different indicator to display yesterday's opening price, as it is not included with the pivots indicator.


(a) Full session high, low and settlement:

-> set indicator to DailyBars (requires a datafeed that comes with settlement prices such as Kinetick)




(b) Full session high, low and close:

-> set indicator to ETH and IntradayClose (possible with any datafeed and ETH session template)




(c) Regular session high, low and settlement:

-> set indicator to RTH and DailyClose (requires a datafeed that comes with settlement prices and a specific session template)




(d) Regular session high, low and close:

-> set indicator to RTH and IntradayClose (possible with any datafeed, requires a specific session template)

Alternatively, a way of showing prior day's OHLC.

However, the indicator displays all naked highs and lows and open/close lines belonging to naked gaps.

So you would get a few more lines, in the sample chart below

-> prior OHLC as you asked
-> plus settlement 2 days ago, regular open from May 2 and settlement from April 24

I have tried the indicator and did everything mentioned above but as you can see from the image I attached it
is still showing the high and the low of ETH. Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong so I cannot get
the high and the low of the regular session. I am using CQG data feed.

Thanks

The indicator requires the use of a specific session templates. The session template tells the indicator the start and end time of the regular session.

Please use the session templates as attached, which divides the trading day into the night session, the regular session and the remaining evening session.

A more general explanation how to set up the session templates can be found here:

Sorry I am not elite member so I cannot visit the link.

I saw your charts above and I see that you can view the ETH on your chart and at the same time
calculate the high and the low of the RTH. Is there a way to do that?

Thanks for your time

I get it now. I should make manually three different sessions
in the Session Manager.

I thought NT had those by default.

Thanks again

Correct, you need to create the session templates. Once you have created them, you can select them under instrument settings. That way NinjaTrader will always catch the appropriate session template, when you open a chart with the session template <instrument settings>. When you toggle between instruments, the session template will automatically change as needed.
