I’ve used chatgpt to help develop the following script which evaluates 5 tickers and their respective timeframes to see if they are all bullish or bearish.

If either are true, it’s supposed to plot a green arrow below or red arrow above the candle on the chart.

Additionally, once it plots the arrow, it won’t plot a similar arrow until the opposite arrow is plotted (eg, if a green arrow was plotted, further green arrows are ignored until a red arrow is first plotted).

All the above works except: 1) Live and Replay display different plot locations. The replay shows the correct plots.

// Check if the current time is within the specified range
in_session = (time >= start_time) and (time <= end_time)

Plot correctly so it matches in replay and live
