That will give you a good approximation, which sounds like it
would be good enough for your needs.
Getting it to work on all timeframes is no biggie. Just use
BarInterval in your calculations:
DaysLeft = DateToJulian(CurrentDate) - DateToJulian(Date);
BarsPerDay = (TimeToMinutes(Sess1EndTime) -
TimeToMinutes(Sess1StartTime)) / BarInterval;
BarsLeft = DaysLeft * BarsPerDay;
That doesn't handle the bars between the current bar and the end
of that day, nor the bars in the last partial day on the chart,
but you can work that out. Or just ignore them, if this gets you
close enough.
