Coding horizontal line at specific bar

Still having a problem with this one. I'm getting a horizontal line on every chart at 0.00 instead of the 16:00 - 16:05 5m candle closing price.

this is what i have inserted from your prior post as the script code....

declare upper;

input PeriodStartTime = 0458;
input PeriodEndTime = 0459;

def Range_Top = if SecondsFromTime(1606) >= 0 then Range_Top[1] else
if SecondsFromTime(1605) == 0 then close else
if SecondsFromTime(1605) < 0 then Double.NaN else
if SecondsFromTime(1605) > 0 and SecondsFromTime(1606) <= 0
and close > Range_Top[1] then close else Range_Top[1];

plot line = Range_Top;

def line_Top = if SecondsFromTime(periodendtime) >= 0 then line_Top[1] else
if SecondsFromTime(PeriodStartTime) == 0 then line[1] else
if SecondsFromTime(PeriodStartTime) < 0 then Double.NaN else
if SecondsFromTime(PeriodStartTime) > 0 and SecondsFromTime(PeriodEndTime) <= 0
and line[1] > line_Top[1] then line[1] else line_Top[1];

plot line2 = line_top;

It�s not going to run on a daily chart.

I�m sure there is a way to do exactly what you�re looking for, I am just not sure how to do it!

I wasn't able to get it to work on any time frame, but then i made a small change. all the 1605 i made 1600 and all the 1606 i made 1605 and it worked great. Aqua Blue horizontal line appeared at the close of the candle i want.

However, the aqua line only extends for 5-6 bars. Is there another tweak to get this line to extend through the end of the trading day? so from the close of 16:05 candle yesterday through the end of trading hours today (1559)?

declare upper;

input PeriodStartTime = 0458;
input PeriodEndTime = 0459;

def Range_Top = if SecondsFromTime(1605) >= 0 then Range_Top[1] else
if SecondsFromTime(1600) == 0 then close else
if SecondsFromTime(1600) < 0 then Double.NaN else
if SecondsFromTime(1600) > 0 and SecondsFromTime(1605) <= 0
and close > Range_Top[1] then close else Range_Top[1];

plot line = Range_Top;

def line_Top = if SecondsFromTime(periodendtime) >= 0 then line_Top[1] else
if SecondsFromTime(PeriodStartTime) == 0 then line[1] else
if SecondsFromTime(PeriodStartTime) < 0 then Double.NaN else
if SecondsFromTime(PeriodStartTime) > 0 and SecondsFromTime(PeriodEndTime) <= 0
and line[1] > line_Top[1] then line[1] else line_Top[1];

plot line2 = line_top;
