ES last five hours of the day ATR

If you can with your trading platform (such as what I have TradeStation), make a custom session chart and apply ATR to it.

But understand large artificial gaps are created between prior session and 12pm EDT or whatever your particular time-zone of the first of the last 5 hours is (since true-range considers prior high/low in calculation).
 
This is easily done if your charting software allows you to define an instrument's trading session. Multicharts can do this using custom sessions. Not sure about other charting packages.
 
sigh .... It used to be able to move from point A to point B in just a few minutes.

Now it takes 5 hours.
Is it dying?!

Are you looking for a source for something like exported intraday data 60 minute increments to text file?
 
Easy to do this with Databento:
Code: 
import databento as db

import pandas as pd


client = db.Historical(key='YOUR_API_KEY')

data = client.timeseries.stream(dataset='GLBX.MDP3',
                                schema='ohlcv-1h',
                                stype_in='smart',       # use smart lead month symbol
                                symbols=['ES.v.0'],     # lead month ES by volume
                                start='2022-12-18',
                                end='2023-01-18')

# Convert to dataframe with UNIX timestamps and display prices
df = data.to_df(pretty_ts=False, pretty_px=True)

# Convert UNIX timestamps to US Eastern Time
df.index = pd.to_datetime(df.index).tz_localize('UTC').tz_convert('America/New_York')

# Only last 5 hours of each day
df = df.between_time('12:00', '17:00')

# Group by day, then compute ATR of last 5 hours of each group
df = df.groupby(df.index.date).apply(lambda row: row['high'].max() - row['low'].min())

print(df)

Here's what you're looking for over the last month:
Code: 
2022-12-19    35.50
2022-12-20    22.50
2022-12-21    22.25
2022-12-22    68.25
2022-12-23    20.75
2022-12-27    27.00
2022-12-28    38.50
2022-12-29    14.75
2022-12-30    47.00
2023-01-03    34.75
2023-01-04    47.00
2023-01-05    28.75
2023-01-06    42.50
2023-01-09    60.25
2023-01-10    37.25
2023-01-11    30.00
2023-01-12    29.75
2023-01-13    34.50
2023-01-16     6.75
2023-01-17    17.25
 
Also to eyeball it and make sure it's correct:
Code: 
data = client.timeseries.stream(dataset='GLBX.MDP3',
                                schema='ohlcv-1m',    # 1 min bars instead
                                stype_in='smart',
                                symbols=['ES.v.0'],
                                start='2023-01-09',
                                end='2023-01-14')

...
...

# Only last 5 hours of each day
df = df.between_time('12:00', '17:00')
plt.plot(df['close'].resample('1min').first().fillna(value=np.nan))
plt.show()

Hey Databento. I was just reading your sig..

Pray as you go for market data with other data providers. With Databento, you get Real-time and historical data from colo..." etc etc.

That is fun marketing, yes yes? :-)
