Is there a way to change color of bg for certain time frames in a day?

Is there a way to change the background color certain time frames in a day?

Here is an example, just 9:00-9:30 portion of the chart would have a different background color, everything ese would remain the same. This color change would alert me that I have to take a break at this time or whatever.

Hello,

There is not a setting in NinjaTrader that does this.

This maybe possible with custom NinjaScript Programming. If you are not familiar with NinjaScript Programming or programming in C# you may be able to hire a consultant to program this as an indicator.

If we can be of any other assistance please let us know.

Yes. You can use it as a guide for any custom work required.

I have posted an open source indicator here

It paints the different FOREX sessions throughout the day. The indicator can be easily modified to show different sections of the regular session for a futures contract. Only thing needed is to set the timezones properly. The FOREX indicators sets the Tokyo session in Tokyo time, the London session in London time and the New York session in Eastern time. The time differences between the zones change 4 times per year, depending on the current DST settings. For example currently New York and London session overlap during 4 hours. This will be reduced to 3 hours by the end of the month.
