(Solved) Does time stamp work or am I missing something

[l'andorrà]

This is the first time I'm working with time stamp stored into a variable, like this:

https://fxdreema.com/shared/AVy0DS0jc

I want to draw an arrow on every candle except for the one I specify as time stamp. I guess the problem is how that info is stored into the variable. If I select 17:50 as my input parameter, the variable's value is 2020.10.12 17:50:00 and apparently is it not considered as correct.

Am I right or am I missing something?

@l-andorrà I tried a less efficient way but it doesn't work either:

This should work for sure. However, the variable never changes to false. I know I can create two constants to define initial and final period time, but I would like to define the initial hour only and then stop the drawing until the next candle.

Any hint?

Edit: I correct myself. It doesn't work that way either.

I found the reason. The file was corrupt. I created a new one from scratch and now it works as planned.
