How to Plot Only Current Day's Intraday Data

AFL Programming
1

Dear Folks,

I am trying to plot only current days data, all i could code is the following

ToDate = ParamDate( "Choose Date", "2019-09-09" ); Cond = IIf(DateNum() == ToDate , Close,Null ); Plot(Cond, "Price", colorBlack);

But the above only Plots the closing price,

i am looking for a candle/bar chart instead of just closing price line chart.

Need your kind assistance.

Thanks.

You we're pretty close. Missing one more part in your Plot() condition.

ToDate = ParamDate( "Choose Date", "2019-09-09" ); 
Cond = IIf(DateNum() == ToDate , Close,Null ); 
Plot(Cond, "Price", colorBlack,styleCandle);

Also if you wanted to not have to update the ParamDate() everyday, I believe the Now() function should work. Don't have a intraday data plugin to try but tried with before/after updating my EOD database.

Today = Now(3);
Cond = IIf(DateNum() == Today , Close,Null ); 

SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);
_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g, Close %g (%.1f%%) {{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 ) ) ));
Plot( cond, "Close", ParamColor("Color", colorDefault ), styleNoTitle | ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );
