Hi guys,
My chart only shows RTH, but the moving average seems off. I was wondering if there is any way to let the MA start calculating from opening bell.

A moving average would typically need x bars to draw the first point
is that your question ?

it also depends on the type of market (continous 23/24
or equity, where there is an opening
and an opening gap

I'm trading futures, so almost open 23 hours. but I want to focus more on the RTH session. Ideally, all my indicators starts as the market opens. couldn't figure out how to get it done

Add a second data set (same market) to your chart , set that one to RTH. Add your MA to that, but have it display in panel 1 (your ETH chart). Drag the second data set down to hide it.
