📌 ICT NY Opens Fixed (Midnight, 7:30 & 8:30) TRUE

This indicator is designed for traders following ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts and provides precise reference levels for the most relevant New York session opens. It automatically captures and plots the opening price for Midnight (00:00 NY), 7:30 AM, and 8:30 AM (configurable), letting you use them as liquidity anchors, manipulation zones, or institutional reference points.

🔑 Key Features

Fixed New York Opens (configurable)

Midnight (00:00 NY), 7:30 AM (NY), 8:30 AM (NY) — each open is captured from the first bar of the configured session.

Sessions are editable: the indicator exposes input.session fields for each open, so you can change the exact hour/minute (e.g., set 00:00 → 23:30 or 08:30 → 08:00). The lines and levels will follow the chosen session times.

Extension & Custom Hours (explicit)

Preset extensions: 1 Day or 2 Days (the horizontal line spans that period).

Directional extension: Right (extend to the right) or Both (left & right).

Custom Hours option: enable a custom-hours toggle and enter a specific number of hours (1–23). When enabled, horizontal lines extend for the exact number of hours you enter instead of the preset day lengths.

Labels are positioned relative to the extension setting (anchored at the open or after the extension depending on the selected mode).

Customizable visuals

Show/hide each open individually.

Independent color and line-style (solid / dotted / dashed) for each open.

Separate text color for labels.

Automatic Labels & Vertical Line

Each drawn level includes an automatic label with the open name and the exact opening price.

A dedicated vertical line option exists for the Midnight open (visual daily separator).

⚙️ How it behaves (precision & workflow)

The script detects the first bar inside the session you configure and records that bar's open as the session Open price.

If you change the session string/time in settings, the indicator will use the new time going forward and draw the corresponding level at that session's opening bar.

Extensions respect either the preset days or the custom hours you specify, so you can make lines last a precise number of hours (useful for intraday setups).

🧭 Use Cases

Pinpoint liquidity clusters and anticipate stop hunts near session opens.

Use as range anchors to measure intraday deviations.

Monitor reactions around economic releases and futures opens (7:30 / 8:30).

Integrate into ICT-based scalping or swing setups where precise session timing matters.
