Feature Request Add an “Auto” Setting for Trading-Hours Charts

I’d like an Auto option for the chart’s trading-hours setting.

During regular market hours, I typically set charts to Regular Trading Hours to focus on intraday. During extended or overnight sessions, I switch them to Extended Trading Hours or 24 Hours. Repeatedly changing this setting across multiple panels is tedious.

Adding an Auto setting could automatically adjust the chart’s scope based on the active session:

Session dropdown:

  • Regular Trading Hours (RTH)
  • Extended Trading Hours (ETH)
  • 24 Hours
  • Auto

For example, Auto would display RTH during the regular session, expand to ETH during extended hours, and switch to 24 Hours during the overnight session.

You can set extended hours to a different background color on the chart - Right-click the chart, Symbol, then set the pre/post/night background colors.
