Daystart would I think be an Array, ie has different values for
different bars, therefor you would need to use a For lloop and array
identifier.

StartTime = 094500 ;

for(i=1;i<barcount;i++)
{
IF (dayStart[i] > StartTime)
{
buy[i] =  H[i]> OR30high[i] and h[i-1]<=or30high[i-1];
}
}

note also that you require the semi-colon at the end of the Buy line

An easier alternative if this is all you have to define the Buy signal would be

StartTime = 094500 ;
buy = dayStart > StartTime and Cross ( H, OR30high );

From the code example you provided, this is what I came up.  I'm trying to make the scan run only after StartTime and only the current day.
