To be honest, I don’t understand the problem, what
makes solving it difficult. There are at least 4 ways to determine
whether you are in the 24 Hr mode (afl or no afl):
1. As mentioned before: File/Database Settings/Intraday
settings/Filtering
2. Look at the chart which will show big time gaps in the
day session
3. The chart will show large daily gaps in the day session
between close and next day’s open. (In 24 Hr session there is only aMonday
0:00AM gap)
4. If all that fails, ask Janeczko for the 2 or 3 line flag
code
Having said that, here some code which perhaps solves the
problem (whatever it is).
Good Luck
Title = EncodeColor(4)+ _DEFAULT_NAME()+"; "+EncodeColor(1) + StrFormat("{{NAME}}
- {{INTERVAL}}; {{DATE}}; O=%g, H=%g, L=%g, C=%g, (%.1f%%){{VALUES}}", O, H,
L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 ) ) );
SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);
SetBarsRequired(inDaily/Interval(),0);// Necessary to
determine Day Session or 24 Hr Session
DayChange = Day()!= Ref(Day(), -1);
StDay1 = ValueWhen(DayChange, BarIndex(), 1);
StDay2 = ValueWhen(DayChange, BarIndex(), 2);
NumDayTimeBars = StDay1 - StDay2;
_24HrBars = inDaily/Interval();
Cond=WriteIf(NumDayTimeBars/_24HrBars<0.95,"Day
Session","24 Hr Trading");
//Cond<=1,
because certain brokers don't display all 24 Hr data and also in case of
occasional data loss:
//for
example IB does not display 12:00-12:15 AM in Forex (4-4:15 PM CST)
Plot(C,"\n"+Cond+"\nDay
Session Bars = "+WriteVal(NumDayTimeBars ,1.0)+"\n24 Hr Bars = "+WriteVal(inDaily/Interval(),1.0),1,5);

bar indices is desired

Your zoom stuff is great... what's great about
it is that you can construct any two datetimes and zoom to those values... they
don't even have to be part of your AFL arrays... i.e. your arrays can be small
but you zoom back to wherever you want...
The problem is constructing datetimes can be a quite clunky... especially if
you want to zoom back a given number of bars... when you start looking at 24
hour vs day filtering it starts to get messy... and no-one likes messy code!!!
