Updated Daily Vertical Lines
Here's a clean, publish-ready description:
Daily Vertical Lines (ET) — Session Time Markers
Mark key intraday times directly on your chart with up to 10 fully configurable vertical lines, all anchored to Eastern Time (America/New_York) with automatic DST handling.
Purpose
Designed for traders who work off fixed intraday time levels — open auctions, macro releases, session midpoints, settlement windows, or any recurring time-based setup. Each line fires once per trading day at its configured ET time and is automatically cleared and redrawn fresh every day at 4:00 AM ET.
Features
10 independent vertical lines, each fully configurable
Per-line controls: enable/disable line, enable/disable label, time (hour + minute in ET), color, label text, line style (Solid / Dashed / Dotted), and line width
Lines and labels are independently toggleable — run clean lines with no text, or labels only, or both
Full-height vertical lines that extend across the entire chart regardless of price scale or zoom level
Automatic daily reset at 4:00 AM ET — previous day's objects are deleted and a fresh set is drawn for the current day
Duplicate prevention — each line can only fire once per day regardless of bar replays or real-time ticks
DST-aware via Pine's native America/New_York timezone — no manual offset adjustments needed
Default Times
9:50 · 10:00 · 10:30 · 11:00 · 12:00 · 12:30 · 1:00 · 1:30 · 2:00 · 3:48
Compatibility
Works on any intraday timeframe. For best results use a resolution fine enough that each configured time has a matching candle (e.g. a 1-minute or 5-minute chart). Not designed for daily or higher timeframes.
Notes
All times are Eastern Time. The script handles EST/EDT transitions automatically.
The 4:00 AM reset means lines from a prior session are always removed before the pre-market open.
Label text is fully editable — rename any line to match your own session labels, news events, or strategy terminology.
