Changed triangulation as it was requested. One note: on 1-minute chart triangulation this works very slow, because it requires to finding the exact position of the low and high. Starting 15+ minutes it works pretty well. I'll look on what can I do for the 1-minute frame later.

BTW, I don't see triangulation here. Should it be removed?

apologies for the lack of clarity, i grouped all lines that were not horizontal under a diagonal group heading. here is a clearer wording(i think)

session open/session close line(already works great)

triangulation lines proper:

current lines drawn
session open/session high at candle high(part of triangulation)
session open/session low at candle low(part of triangulation)
session high at candle high/session low at candle low(part of triangulation)

additional lines needed
session low at candle low/session close at candle close(needed)
session high at candle high/session close at candle close(needed)

Hello,

Would it be possible to be able to customise the time zones. Everything is great as it is except to define the trading session hours. would that be possible?

Looking forward to your reply,

Regards
