I just started setting up multicharts and I added the prior day OLHC study to the chart. However, they are starting at midnight instead of the session close time of 4pm(CT) The normal session lines between days are in the right spot and I dont see a way to adjust the session times for the OLHC study.

That is how that standard indicator works; it resets when the date of the current bar differs from the previous bar (so at midnight) and has no inputs for specifying session start/end times. You can use that indicator as a template for creating your own though.

Like I said You could use the MC symbol for the regular hours session to avoid the date change ( I'm assuming is the same as TS @ES.D, I don't really use MC)

Or You could create your own custom session Just search for "custom session" on the help menu, no programming required.

You won't be able to trade from that specific chart if You use the continuous contract though.
