   int LondonLow=iLowest(_Symbol,_Period,MODE_LOW,CloseTime,OpenTime);     
   
   
  
   ObjectCreate ("Rectangle", OBJ_RECTANGLE, 0, Time[Session_Begins],High[LondonHigh],Time[Session_Ends],Low[LondonLow]);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,"Rectangle",OBJPROP_COLOR,clrGray);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,"Rectangle",OBJPROP_BACK,true);
 
   
  }
 

Help with what?

State your problem if you want help.

Check the documentation for what iHighest and iLowest returns.

Time[Session_Begins]

Time[Session_Ends]

Time[] needs a bar index

 datetime Session_Begins = TimeDay (D'2021.06.07 02:00');

I don't know what you expect from this????

  3. int LondonHigh=iHighest(_Symbol,_Period,MODE_HIGH,CloseTime,OpenTime);   
int LondonLow=  iLowest(_Symbol,_Period,MODE_LOW,CloseTime,OpenTime);  

    Perhaps you should read the manual. What are the last two parameters in iHighest vs. what you are passing.
