Overview
The script automatically calculates:
• Premarket High
• Premarket Low
from 04:00 to 09:30 AM (New York time) and projects these levels into the regular session.
At the market open (09:30), it draws two horizontal rays that extend to the right:
• Premarket High
• Premarket Low
These levels remain visible throughout the trading session.
⸻
Key Features

• No repainting
• Lightweight and optimized for intraday use
⸻

This indicator allows you to integrate that context directly into your RTH workflow without cluttering your chart.
⸻
