The Machine – Session Map

Overview
The Machine – Session Map is a session-based analytical indicator that divides the trading day into the three main global sessions — Asia, London, and New York — and maps their price behavior using structured logic. It’s designed for traders who study intraday cycles, session liquidity behavior, and inter-session relationships.

Core Logic
The indicator identifies the start and end times of each major trading session based on user-defined session times. For every session, it:

Captures session range by recording the high, low, and close between session start and end.

Stores previous session data and projects key levels (previous session high, low, and midpoint) into the next day as reference support/resistance zones.

Computes pip range and volatility metrics per session to measure strength and expansion.

Determines directional bias by comparing the session’s close relative to its open and prior session range (expansion above or below prior structure defines bias).

Detects accumulation and distribution zones using session overlap logic and range compression/expansion criteria.

Labels session structures with automatic annotations such as “Expansion,” “Retracement,” or “Reversal” when volatility or bias conditions are met.

Visual Elements

Session Boxes: Colored regions that visually segment the chart into the three sessions.

High/Low Lines: Dynamic lines showing real-time session highs and lows as price develops.

Previous Session Levels: Optional projection of previous highs/lows/midpoints as structural zones.

Bias Labels: Text markers summarizing session direction and volatility conditions.

Dashboard Panel: Displays current session time, range in pips, and directional bias summary.

Use Case
This tool is useful for identifying intraday structure shifts, comparing session volatility, and observing how price behaves relative to prior session levels. It can support strategies involving session-based liquidity cycles, accumulation/manipulation/distribution behavior, or time-based confluence.
