London

London Session Breakout - Joovier GemsLondon Session Breakout London Session Breakout is a visual breakout indicator designed for traders who want a clean, mechanical way to track the pre-market London range on Nasdaq futures. This indicator marks the 3:00 AM–9:00 AM New York time range, highlights the active trading window from 9:30 AM–11:00 AM, and plots breakout signals when price closes outside the London range. The goal is simple: help traders visually identify when NQ breaks out of the London session range during the New York morning session. How It Works 1. The indicator draws a box around the 3:00 AM–9:00 AM NY time session. 2. It marks the London session high and low. 3. The New York execution window from 9:30 AM–11:00 AM is highlighted on the chart. 4. A buy signal appears when a 5-minute candle closes above the London high. 5. A sell signal appears when a 5-minute candle closes below the London low. 6. Optional entry, stop loss, and take profit lines can be displayed automatically. Trade Logic This indicator is built around a simple breakout model: * Long Signal: Candle closes above the 3:00 AM–9:00 AM range high. * Short Signal: Candle closes below the 3:00 AM–9:00 AM range low. * Entry: Breakout candle close. * Stop Loss: 5 ticks beyond the breakout candle. * Take Profit: 2R by default. * Signals Only Appear: Between 9:30 AM and 11:00 AM New York time. Features * London range box * London high and low levels * New York execution window highlight * Buy and sell breakout arrows * Optional one-signal-per-day mode * Optional entry, stop loss, and take profit lines * Adjustable stop offset and take-profit R multiple * Customizable colors, arrows, labels, and text size * Alert conditions for long, short, or any breakout Recommended Use This indicator is intended for use on the NQ 5-minute chart with extended-hours data enabled. It is best used as a visual backtesting and trade-planning tool. The indicator does not guarantee profitability and should be combined with proper risk management, market context, and your own testing.

SmartFlow Kill ZoneSmartFlow Kill Zone highlights the three major trading sessions (Tokyo, London, New York) and their corresponding ICT Kill Zones directly on your chart. Designed for intraday traders who use session-based and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) strategies, this indicator gives you instant visual clarity on when high-probability trading windows are active. █ WHAT IT DOES This indicator identifies and displays the three global forex sessions and three ICT Kill Zones using distinct background colors. It also tracks the High and Low of each session in real time and draws horizontal reference lines that update as the session progresses. A built-in dashboard provides a quick overview of which sessions and Kill Zones are currently active, along with each session's range in pips. █ HOW IT WORKS Session and Kill Zone detection is based on time-of-day logic using the user-selected timezone (default: America/New_York): Sessions: - Tokyo: 19:00 – 04:00 ET - London: 03:00 – 12:00 ET - New York: 08:00 – 17:00 ET Kill Zones (ICT): - London Kill Zone: 02:00 – 05:00 ET - New York Kill Zone: 07:00 – 10:00 ET - Asian Kill Zone: 20:00 – 00:00 ET (off by default) Session High/Low lines are drawn from the session's opening bar and updated on every new bar during the session. When a session closes, lines optionally extend to the right until the next session of the same type begins. Previous sessions' High/Low lines are preserved across multiple days (configurable via "Days to Display"). The dashboard table uses the last bar's data to show open/closed status, the session's current range, and whether any Kill Zone is active. █ HOW TO USE - Apply the indicator to any intraday chart (1m to 1h recommended). - Use the background shading to quickly identify which session you are trading in. - The brighter Kill Zone overlay tells you when the highest-probability reversal windows are active — this is where ICT traders look for optimal trade entries. - Session High/Low lines act as key reference levels. Price often reacts at these levels as they represent session-based liquidity. - The dashboard gives you a heads-up display so you never miss a Kill Zone activation. █ FEATURES - Three session backgrounds with independent on/off toggles - Three ICT Kill Zone backgrounds with independent on/off toggles - Real-time Session High/Low tracking with configurable line style and width - High/Low labels that update live during the session - "Extend Lines Right" option for lines to project forward until the next session - Multi-day history (up to 30 days of past session H/L lines) - Dashboard with session status, range (pips), and Kill Zone status - Dashboard position and size are fully customizable - 9 alert conditions (session open/close and Kill Zone activation) - Full timezone support (10 major timezones) - Works on any symbol and any intraday timeframe █ SETTINGS Sessions — Toggle visibility for Tokyo, London, and New York sessions. Kill Zones — Toggle each ICT Kill Zone independently. Asian KZ is off by default. Colors — Customize background colors for each session and Kill Zone. Session High/Low — Toggle H/L lines and labels, set line width, style, and right extension. Dashboard — Toggle, reposition, and resize the info panel. Timezone — Select the timezone used for session calculations. History — Set how many days of past session H/L lines to display (1–30). █ NOTES - This indicator does not generate buy or sell signals. It provides session structure and timing context to support your own trading strategy and decision-making. - Kill Zone times are based on the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) framework. Different educators may define slightly different windows. - For best results, use on timeframes of 1 hour or lower where session boundaries are clearly visible.

EdgeMatrix SessionsUnlike most session indicators that only mark static open or close levels, EdgeMatrix Sessions draws a live expanding range box for each session that updates bar by bar and remains as a permanent reference level after the session closes EdgeMatrix Sessions draws real-time high and low range boxes for the four major global trading sessions directly on the chart. The sessions covered are Tokyo, London, New York, and Sydney. Each session box begins drawing at the open of the session window and expands automatically bar by bar as price establishes new highs or lows within that session period. When the session closes, the box remains on the chart as a permanent reference level, giving traders a visual record of where price was accepted during each major market period. Session boundary detection is handled using a UTC offset input, which allows the indicator to align session times accurately regardless of the trader's local timezone or broker server time. Each session has its own independent color input and can be toggled on or off individually. Session time ranges are fully adjustable for traders whose broker uses non-standard open and close times. The indicator works on all asset classes including Futures, Forex, Crypto, and Indices on any timeframe. How to use: Set the UTC offset to match your broker server time. Enable or disable each session with the toggle inputs. The boxes draw and expand automatically during active session hours and remain as static reference levels after each session closes.

Session Bias Relay Map [AGPro Series]Session Bias Relay Map 🧠 Core Idea Did Asia, London, and New York pass the same bias forward, or did the next session reject the market narrative? 📌 Overview / What it does Session Bias Relay Map is an intraday session-structure tool built to visualize how directional bias moves from one major trading session to the next. The script tracks Asia, London, and New York session ranges, scores each session's directional bias, and classifies whether the active session confirms, conflicts with, or reverses the previous session's narrative. It does not predict price direction, automate trades, or claim that a session handoff must continue. It is a structured visualization and decision-support map for session bias, market narrative, and intraday context. 🎯 Purpose & Design Philosophy Many session tools draw boxes, highs, lows, or kill zones. This script was built to answer a more contextual question: Did the next major session accept the prior session's directional story, or did it break the handoff? The design goal is to help traders read sessions as a relay of market intent instead of isolated time windows. It supports discretionary market reading, session review, and intraday structure analysis. ⚡ Why This Script Is Different Most session indicators focus on time blocks, session highs, and session lows. This script does NOT stop at drawing session boxes. Instead, it evaluates how each session behaves relative to the prior session. It scores bias strength, detects handoff confirmation, identifies conflict, and highlights reversal pressure when the active session builds a strong opposite narrative. ⚙️ Methodology 1. Session Detection The script tracks configurable Asia, London, and New York session windows using the chart symbol's exchange timezone. 2. Session Range Mapping For each session, it records open, high, low, close, midpoint, bar count, and live range behavior. 3. Bias Scoring Session bias is scored using body pressure, close location inside the session range, and optional relative volume confirmation. 4. Relay Evaluation London is compared against the completed Asia bias. New York is compared against the completed London bias. 5. Visual Output The chart displays session boxes, midpoint rails, centered session labels, relay event labels, right-side tags, alerts, and a compact AG Pro decision panel. 🗺️ How to Read the Chart Session Boxes = the active session range built from each configured time window. Centered Labels = the session name, current bias, relay state, and quality score. Midpoint Rails = the middle of each session range, useful for reading control and balance. Relay Event Labels = confirmation, conflict, or reversal events when a later session responds to the prior session. Right-Side Tags = the current relay state and active session bias. Panel = summarizes active session, relay state, bias score, prior session, session quality scores, next context, and timeframe scope. 🚦 Signals & States • RELAY CONFIRMED → the active session supports the previous session's directional bias. • RELAY REVERSAL → the active session builds strong bias opposite to the previous session. • BIAS CONFLICT → the active session does not clearly confirm the previous session. • FIRST LEG → Asia is building the first session bias for the daily relay. • WAIT HANDOFF → the active handoff does not yet have enough evidence. • BULLISH → the session is closing with bullish range pressure. • BEARISH → the session is closing with bearish range pressure. • NEUTRAL → the session does not have enough directional pressure. 🔔 Alerts Logic Alerts trigger when a major relay state appears. • Session Bias Relay Confirmed → the active session confirmed the directional bias passed from the previous session. • Session Bias Conflict → the active session failed to confirm the previous session and is showing conflict. • Session Bias Reversal → the active session built strong bias opposite to the previous session. Alerts are attention markers, not trade instructions. 🧩 Confluence Logic The context becomes stronger when: • The previous session has a clear directional bias • The active session has enough bars to evaluate • The active session bias score is above the confirmation threshold • Price closes with clear range position • Relative volume supports participation • The relay label and panel state agree If these elements do not align, the script avoids forcing a strong directional interpretation. 📊 When to Use • Intraday session analysis • Forex, crypto, index futures, and liquid stock index products • Asia-to-London handoff review • London-to-New-York handoff review • Market narrative tracking • Session range and bias studies • 15m, 30m, 1H, and 2H charts ⚠️ When NOT to Use • Daily, weekly, or monthly charts • Very low-liquidity symbols • Markets with irregular or meaningless session windows • Extremely noisy conditions where session closes do not carry useful information • Situations where a single session should not be over-interpreted • Symbols where the chart exchange timezone does not match the intended session model 🎛️ Key Inputs • Asia Session → defines the first session window used to build the initial bias. • London Session → defines the second session window used to evaluate the Asia handoff. • New York Session → defines the third session window used to evaluate the London handoff. • Max Chart TF Minutes → limits the largest timeframe that should build the relay map. • Bias Confirmation Threshold → controls how strong a session must be before it can confirm a relay. • Conflict Threshold → controls when a session is treated as weak or conflicted. • Minimum Handoff Bars → prevents early-session noise from printing premature relay labels. • Use Volume Confirmation → adds relative volume pressure to the bias score. • Show Session Boxes → controls the main visual range boxes. • Show Relay Event Labels → controls confirmation, conflict, and reversal labels. • Label Font Size → controls chart label and tag text size. • Panel Font Size → controls panel text size. 🖥️ Interface & Visual Design The visual hierarchy is built around the session relay story. Session boxes define the time windows. Centered labels make each session readable without hunting through the chart. Relay labels highlight the important handoff moments. Right-side tags keep the current state visible. The AG Pro panel summarizes the active session context in a clean, compact format. 🧪 Practical Usage Workflow 1. Choose session windows that match the market being studied. 2. Let Asia build the first bias leg. 3. Watch whether London confirms, conflicts with, or reverses Asia. 4. Watch whether New York confirms, conflicts with, or reverses London. 5. Use the panel to check relay state, active bias, quality score, and timeframe scope. 6. Interpret the result inside broader market structure, liquidity, and volatility context. 🔍 Interpretation Guidelines A relay confirmation does not guarantee continuation. It means the active session is supporting the prior session's directional bias according to the script's rule set. A relay reversal does not guarantee a full trend reversal. It means the active session is building strong opposite pressure relative to the previous session. A bias conflict is not a failure. It is useful information that the market narrative is not clean. The best use is contextual: combine the relay state with support, resistance, liquidity, volume, and higher-timeframe structure. 🚫 What This Script Is NOT This script is not a prediction engine. It is not financial advice. It is not an auto-trading system. It does not provide guaranteed entry or exit signals. It is not a generic session box indicator. It is not a kill-zone strategy. ⚠️ Limitations & Transparency Session settings matter. Poorly selected session windows can produce weak or misleading context. Timeframe differences can affect how session handoffs appear. Low-liquidity markets can distort bias scores. Markets with irregular trading hours may need custom session inputs. Relative volume can help, but it does not guarantee better interpretation in every market. 🧠 Market Context Notes Session behavior is often shaped by liquidity, regional participation, volatility expansion, and macro timing. The same relay state can mean different things depending on whether the market is trending, ranging, or reacting to news. The script is strongest when used as a narrative map, not as a standalone decision machine. 🧾 Use Case Examples • If Asia builds a bullish range and London also closes with strong bullish pressure, the relay may show confirmation. • If Asia builds bullish pressure but London quickly forms strong bearish pressure, the relay may show reversal. • If London begins with weak movement and no clear range pressure, the relay may show conflict or wait for more evidence. 🧱 System Philosophy Session Bias Relay Map is part of the AGPro Series approach to decision-support tools: clear structure, premium chart readability, honest interpretation, and no promise of certainty. The goal is to help traders see market context faster without turning analysis into signal spam. 🔐 Non-Promise Statement No script can know the future. No session handoff is guaranteed. No signal should be interpreted without broader market context. 📉 Risk Disclosure Trading involves risk. Markets can move unpredictably. This script is for educational and analytical purposes only. It does not provide financial advice or guaranteed trading outcomes. Users remain responsible for their own decisions. 📚 Educational Note Use this script to study how market participation changes across sessions. The value is not only in the label. The value is in learning how the session narrative develops, confirms, conflicts, or reverses over time.

ALN Sessions [NQ Stats x CantoLab]A statistical tool for NQ intraday traders built around research from NQ Stats (NQStats on twitter / nqstats.com ). Credit to NQ Stats for the original concept and data — published here as an open source indicator with permission. Introduction This indicator visualizes Asia and London session ranges on NQ (NASDAQ futures), then overlays statistically-derived probability levels showing how likely price is to sweep each session's high or low — based on historical pattern data compiled by NQ Stats. How to Read the Probability Numbers When London session closes, two horizontal lines appear — one above (London High) and one below (London Low) — each labeled with a percentage like 81.1% or 74.9%. These numbers answer: "Historically, how often does price return to sweep this level after London closes?" For example, if you see 81.1% on the high line, it means: in roughly 8 out of 10 historical sessions matching this pattern, price eventually traded back up to or through the London High What happens when a level is hit? The label updates to show in blue — confirming that level was reached The other line's probability updates to a new conditional probability, e.g. 46% , shown in brackets This delta tells you how the odds of sweeping the second level changed now that the first was reached The Four Patterns (Asia vs London relationship) The probabilities change depending on how London's range relates to Asia's range that day. The indicator detects four patterns automatically: London Engulfs Asia — London trades both above AND below Asia's range. The most expansive session structure. Asia Engulfs London — Asia's range fully contains London's range. London consolidates inside the prior overnight range. London High Break — London breaks only above Asia's high, leaving Asia's low intact. London Low Break — London breaks only below Asia's low, leaving Asia's high intact. Each pattern has its own set of historical probabilities, so the percentages you see are always contextual to that day's Asia/London relationship — not a fixed number. Settings Asia Session — color, session time window, and label text London Session — color, session time window, and label text Label Size — Tiny / Small / Normal / Large Border — toggle, style (Solid/Dashed/Dotted), and width for session boxes Probability Lines — toggle, Auto color or manual color pick, style (Solid/Dashed/Dotted), and width Daily Dividers — toggle, color, style (Solid/Dashed/Dotted), and width Notes Built for NQ Futures. Behaviour on other instruments is untested All times are New York time Probability data is derived from 10 years of NQ historical data by nqstats.com This indicator does not provide financial advice or a complete strategy. You are responsible for how you build around and execute on this data ⚠️ Important This is a statistical study indicator. It does not guarantee that the London high or low will be hit. Over a large sample, this is the expected behaviour based on 10 years of NQ data. It is best combined with other confluences to confirm direction — this indicator alone is not a strategy.

Asian Range Liquidity Map [AGPro Series]Asian Range Liquidity Map 🔹 OVERVIEW Asian Range Liquidity Map is a precision tool for ICT and smart-money traders who focus on the London Open liquidity sweep. The indicator maps the Asian session high/low liquidity pool, tracks which side gets taken on the London kill-zone, and keeps a rolling 60-session record of post-sweep reactions. The engine calculates live Reversal / Continuation / Mixed probabilities for both bull and bear sweeps and displays everything in a compact info panel without cluttering the chart. Whether you trade Turtle Soup setups, session-based liquidity grabs, or simply want clean Asian range context, this indicator gives you the structural read most traders spend months building manually. 🔹 UNIQUE EDGE This is not another session-box plotter. Three design choices separate it from generic Asian range indicators: 1. ATR-Normalized Quality Filter — the range width is measured against the Daily ATR, not the chart timeframe. Sessions that are abnormally narrow (illiquid) or abnormally wide (news-driven noise) are filtered out of the statistics engine automatically. Only clean, tradable ranges count. 2. Live Historical Statistics Engine — every past sweep in the 60-session rolling window is classified as Reversal, Continuation, or Mixed using close-based validation. When a new sweep fires, a state label immediately shows the historical bias: "Bull Sweep -> Historical Reversal 73% (n=26)". You see the context the moment price reacts. 3. Three-Tier Classification — most tools treat sweep reactions as a binary outcome. This engine separates clean reversals, clean continuations, and indecisive mixed responses, giving a more honest statistical picture. The Mixed bucket is visible in the panel so the trader always knows how confident the signal actually is. 🔹 METHODOLOGY 1. Session Tracking — the Asian window is tracked using pure UTC hour/minute math (default 00:00-08:00 UTC), fully independent of chart timezone. Start and end hours are configurable. 2. Range Validity — on session close, the range width is compared to the Daily ATR. If the ratio falls outside the user-defined band (default 0.3-2.0 x dATR), the session is marked Filtered Out and excluded from statistics. 3. Sweep Detection — after the session closes, the engine watches a configurable post-open window (default 6 hours) for the first break of the Asian High or Low. Only the first sweep per session is recorded, which keeps the sample clean. 4. Reaction Classification — after the reaction window (default 10 bars), the engine evaluates post-sweep closes: - Reversal: price closed through the opposite side by at least Reversal Threshold x Range - Continuation: price sustained past the sweep level with pullback under Continuation Threshold x Range - Mixed: neither condition was met 5. Rolling Sample — the most recent 60 classified sweeps feed the Bull and Bear statistics independently. Default is 60, configurable from 20 to 100. 🔹 SIGNALS AND ON-CHART ELEMENTS - Asian Range Box: dotted amber rectangle during the session, solidifies on close if the range passes the ATR filter. Filtered sessions fade to near-invisible. - High and Low Dotted Extensions: projected right from each validated session, showing the liquidity levels the market will target. - Sweep State Label: appears on the bar that first breaks the range. Color-coded green for bull sweeps, pink for bear sweeps, with the historical bias and sample size baked in. - Sweep Line: thick horizontal line at the taken level, drawn forward across the projection zone. - Projection Zone: rectangular post-sweep forecast box where follow-through (or rejection) typically plays out. - Multi-Day Overlay: up to the last 5 validated Asian ranges rendered with fade hierarchy (oldest most faded, newest most visible). - Three alerts are included: Bull Sweep Detected, Bear Sweep Detected, and London Open with Valid Asian Range. 🔹 KEY INPUTS Session Settings: - Asian Session Start/End Hour (UTC) - Sweep Detection Window (hours after London Open) Quality Filter: - Use ATR filter (on/off) - Min and Max Range Width (x Daily ATR) - ATR Length Historical Stats Engine: - Sample Size (20-100 sessions) - Reaction Window (bars after sweep) - Reversal Threshold (x Range) - Continuation Threshold (x Range) Multi-Day Overlay: - Show historical sessions (on/off) - Days to show and fade intensity Post-Sweep Projection: - Show projection zone (on/off) - Projection length in bars Visual Style: - Label Font Size (independent from panel) - Show sweep state label (on/off) Info Panel: - Show panel, location, theme (Dark/Light) - Panel Font Size (independent from labels) 🔹 HOW TO USE Best fit: intraday timeframes from 1m to 60m. The 15m chart is the intended sweet spot and what the defaults are tuned around. The script auto-disables on 4H and higher with a clear on-chart notice. Typical workflow: 1. Confirm Range Status shows Valid after the Asian session closes. If Filtered Out, stand aside that day. 2. Wait for the London Sweep Window state and watch the Asian High/Low levels. 3. When a sweep fires, read the state label. A high Reversal probability near a major higher-timeframe level often flags a Turtle Soup opportunity. A high Continuation probability suggests fading is risky and trend-aligned entries are preferred. 4. Use the projection zone as a post-sweep attention area, not a target in itself. 5. Cross-check with your own higher-timeframe bias, volume, and structure before committing. 🔹 LIMITATIONS AND TRANSPARENCY - This is a context tool, not a strategy. No buy/sell signals are generated and no backtest or performance claim is made. - The historical percentages shown are descriptive statistics of recent price behavior in the sample window. They describe what has happened, not what will happen. A reading like 80% Reversal means four out of five prior sweeps in the sample reversed; the fifth did not. - On strongly trending or low-volatility instruments, distributions can skew heavily to one category. For example, on a tight range-bound market a liquidity sweep almost always reverts, producing very high Reversal readings. This is a feature of the data, not a bug. If a distribution looks extreme, tighten the Reversal Threshold and shorten the Reaction Window for a stricter definition, or widen them for a looser one. - Request.security is used to pull Daily ATR and is evaluated without lookahead; no future data is used. - First-run sample size will be small until the chart has enough history to fill 60 sessions. Expect the panel to show progress like 18 / 60 until the buffer fills. 🔹 RISK DISCLOSURE This indicator is a research and analysis tool for educational purposes. It does not constitute financial advice, a recommendation, or a solicitation to buy or sell any asset. Past behavior of liquidity sweeps does not guarantee future outcomes. Trading carries substantial risk of loss. Always perform your own analysis, apply risk management that suits your account, and consult a qualified professional before making financial decisions.

Session Reaction Map [AGPro Series]Session Reaction Map 🔷 OVERVIEW Session Reaction Map is a premium intraday study that maps how price reacts to the most important daily and weekly reference levels right at the opens of the Asia, London and New York sessions. Each session open is evaluated inside a fixed measurement window, and the resulting reaction is broken down into four dimensions: dominant move, close follow-through, wick rejection and counter-move penalty. The output is a single 0-100 reaction score that is then translated into tier-coded labels, premium reaction zones, an active reference band and a compact status panel, so you can instantly read what happened at each session open without scrolling through candles. The indicator is designed for discretionary traders, systematic traders, SMC and price action practitioners who want a clean, consistent and quantitative way to read session open behaviour around PDH, PDL, PDM, Daily Open and Weekly Open. Reactions are drawn as directional zones (bull zones above the reference and bear zones below), with up or down pointing labels centered on the reaction, so orientation is always unambiguous. 🧭 UNIQUE EDGE Most session open tools only mark time windows or highlight levels. Session Reaction Map goes further and quantifies the quality of the reaction itself. Four independent dimensions are measured against a fixed ATR-normalized baseline, and the final score determines not only whether a label is shown but also how prominent it is. Elite scores (80+) get the strongest visuals; strong scores (70-79) get a slightly softer treatment; watch scores (55-69) are coded as caution; anything below 55 is filtered out by default. This separation between detection (a session open near a reference) and evaluation (the reaction quality score) is the core edge. It lets you focus only on the best intraday reactions and discard noise automatically, while still being able to audit every component by adjusting the ATR length, touch tolerance, evaluation window and score thresholds. ⚙️ METHODOLOGY Session detection uses the chosen timezone and three session windows (Asia, London, New York), each with its own editable open range. When a session open occurs, the script checks whether the open price is within an ATR based touch tolerance of any enabled reference level (Previous Day High, Previous Day Low, Previous Day Mid, Daily Open or Weekly Open). If so, a reaction window is engaged on that bar and tracked for a configurable number of bars. During the reaction window, the live zone, reference band and dashed reference line are updated in real time. When the window completes, the final score is computed as: • Dominant move score (up to 45 points) - scaled against 1.20 x ATR • Close follow-through score (up to 30 points) - scaled against 0.90 x ATR • Wick rejection score (up to 15 points) - scaled against 0.50 x ATR • Counter-move penalty (up to -20 points) - scaled against 1.00 x ATR The sum is clamped into the 0-100 range and mapped into four tiers: Elite, Strong, Watch and Weak. The dominant direction of the reaction (up or down) is determined by comparing the upside excursion from the reference to the downside excursion from the reference during the window. 🎯 SIGNALS AND VISUALS • Reaction zones - rectangular areas connecting the reference level with the reaction extreme, tier-coded by score and bias • Active reference band - a thin accent band around the current reference level during a live reaction window • Dashed reference line - marks the exact reference price while the reaction is being measured • Tier-coded labels - up-pointing labels below bullish reactions and down-pointing labels above bearish reactions, centered on the reaction window • Session dots - small colored markers that optionally display only on valid events, keeping the chart clean • Active measurement highlight - an ultra-soft background shade on bars inside a live reaction window Labels use a ring buffer overlap check, so dense multi-session conditions do not pile labels on top of each other. When two labels would visually conflict, the higher-scored reaction wins. 🛠️ KEY INPUTS Sessions - enable/disable and edit Asia, London and New York session windows, each with its own color and timezone. Reference Levels - individually toggle PDH, PDL, PDM, Daily Open and Weekly Open. Reaction Logic - ATR length, touch tolerance in ATR, evaluation bars, label score filter, minimum label score, overlap reduction (bars and vertical ATR gap). Visuals - show/hide reference levels, session dots, dots only on valid events, reaction zones, minimum score for zones, zone transparency and extension, live reaction zone, active reference band with its ATR size and transparency, active measurement highlight, level width, label size, label offset in ATR and label background transparency. Panel - show/hide, position (six anchor points), Dark or Light theme, font size, optional guide row. All numerical inputs carry professional English tooltips explaining their role, so the script can be tuned for any symbol, timeframe and trading style. 📘 HOW TO USE 1. Apply the script on an intraday timeframe. It is designed for intraday use and will stay passive on daily/higher timeframes. 2. Recommended starting timeframe is 4H for swing intraday context, and 1H for tactical intraday work. Lower timeframes (15m, 30m) work too but may produce dense output. 3. Start with the default settings. Observe which sessions and which reference levels generate the most Elite and Strong reactions on your symbol. 4. Use the panel to monitor the current state: last session, last reference, bias, score, tier, label filter, zone filter and the active reaction status. 5. Treat Elite (80+) and Strong (70-79) reactions as the main signals. Watch tier is informative and Weak tier is generally discarded. 6. Align with your own confluence: higher timeframe bias, structure, orderflow, or whatever your primary framework is. The script does not issue buy or sell calls - it scores reactions, and you decide. ⚠️ LIMITATIONS AND TRANSPARENCY • This is not a strategy and does not place orders. No backtest statistics are implied. • Reaction scores are computed after the evaluation window completes, so they are not repainting but are confirmed with a lag equal to the evaluation window size. • The live reaction zone updates during the window and is finalized when the window closes. • Session behavior varies significantly by symbol (crypto vs FX vs equities) and by volatility regime. Inputs should be tuned per symbol. • Daily and Weekly references use standard request.security with barmerge.lookahead_off to avoid look-ahead bias. • The script is not a forecasting tool. It is a post-event quantification of how price has just reacted to a known reference level. 🛡️ RISK DISCLOSURE Trading involves substantial risk. Past reactions, patterns, zones or scores do not guarantee future performance. This script is provided for educational and analytical purposes only and is not financial advice. Always combine any tool with your own research, a defined risk plan and proper position sizing. You are solely responsible for your trading decisions.

Judas Swing Detector [AGPro Series]Judas Swing Detector ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ OVERVIEW ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The Judas Swing is a well-known intraday pattern in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology describing how price often makes a deceptive initial move at the London or New York session open — pulling in participants in one direction — before reversing to reveal the session's true directional bias. Judas Swing Detector systematically identifies, visualizes, and tracks this pattern across every London and New York session open. It shades the trap zone, flags the reversal bar, highlights the true-direction bias, and maintains a rolling 20-session performance log so users can assess how consistently the pattern resolves on their chosen symbol and timeframe. IMPORTANT — Timeframe requirement: This indicator is designed for intraday charts of 1 hour or lower (1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h). Session windows anchor the entire logic, and a 1-hour Judas window cannot be resolved on 4-hour or higher charts. The panel always shows an "Optimal TF: 1m - 1h" footer, and the TF status row turns yellow with "use <=1h" if the current chart exceeds this range. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ UNIQUE EDGE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Unlike generic session-open or breakout indicators, Judas Swing Detector is built around a defined four-state lifecycle (Pending → Active → Forming → Confirmed / Failed) with ATR-normalized thresholds, so detection remains stable across different volatility regimes and asset classes. Three design choices make it distinct: 1. Independent two-way extremum tracking inside the Judas window — both the maximum upward and maximum downward excursion are recorded, and the larger of the two is declared the fake move when the window closes. This removes ambiguity in choppy openings. 2. Separate fake-move and reversal thresholds. The initial push must exceed a minimum ATR-scaled size to qualify, and the reversal must travel a second ATR-scaled distance beyond the session open — filtering out shallow round trips that would otherwise inflate the signal count. 3. Rolling 20-session statistics panel reporting success rate, average fake distance, and directional bias, giving discretionary traders an objective view of how the pattern is behaving on their instrument before they act on it. 4. Support/resistance-style invalidation zone drawn at the fake-move extremum after confirmation. This gives a clear visual anchor: if price later re-enters this zone from the opposite side during the session, the Judas read is considered broken. The zone is a reference, not an automatic signal. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ METHODOLOGY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Step 1 — Session anchoring At the first bar of the configured London or New York window the script records the session open price, resets the two-way extremum trackers, and transitions to the Active state. Step 2 — Fake-move accumulation During the window the script tracks both the maximum high and minimum low relative to the session open. Neither is committed as the fake move until the window closes. Step 3 — Window-close evaluation When the window ends the larger excursion (up vs down) becomes the fake direction. If its size reaches the user-defined ATR multiple it qualifies and the script transitions to the Forming state; otherwise it resets to idle. Step 4 — Reversal confirmation In the Forming state the script waits for price to cross the session open in the opposite direction of the fake move and travel at least the configured ATR-scaled distance beyond it. When that happens the swing is Confirmed and the true direction is drawn on the chart. If the reversal window expires without confirmation the swing is recorded as Failed. Step 5 — History log Every confirmed and failed outcome is appended to a rolling 20-session log used by the statistics panel. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SIGNALS & ALERTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ On-chart visuals: • Dashed vertical line at session start (accent color) • "LON" or "NY" label at the session anchor bar (Balanced / Detailed only) • Shaded fake-move box from session open to fake extremum, colored opposite to the true direction (a bearish trap is shaded in the bear tone because the true direction is down — and vice versa) • Optional "Fake" distance label at the extremum (Detailed density only) • Reversal marker "X UP" or "X DOWN" at the confirmation bar, offset from the candles for readability • Horizontal support/resistance-style invalidation zone around the fake extremum, extending 40 bars to the right — a visual reference for where the Judas read would break down if price re-enters the zone Alert conditions (toggle individually in settings): • Judas Swing Forming — fake move has qualified, waiting for reversal • Judas Swing Confirmed — reversal threshold crossed, true direction known • Judas Swing Failed — reversal window expired without confirmation ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEY INPUTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Session Windows • Track London Open — toggle London session monitoring • London Judas Window (NY time) — session string, default 0200-0300 • Track New York Open — toggle NY session monitoring • NY Judas Window (NY time) — session string, default 0930-1030 • Session Timezone — timezone used to interpret the windows • Reversal Window (minutes) — maximum time after window close in which a valid reversal can still be recorded Detection Logic • Min Fake-Move Size (ATR mult) — minimum excursion required to qualify • Reversal Confirmation (ATR mult) — distance beyond session open needed to confirm the reversal • ATR Length — lookback for threshold scaling Visuals • Show Session Start Line, Show Fake-Move Zone, Show Reversal Marker, Show Invalidation Zone — individual visual toggles • Label Density — Minimal / Balanced / Detailed • Font Size — tiny / small / normal / large (applies to labels and panel) • Theme — Dark / Light (panel only, chart candles unaffected) Panel • Show Info Panel — master toggle • Panel Location — 6 chart positions • Always displays: current session, state, true direction, fake distance, rolling 20-session statistics (success rate, avg distance, bull/bear bias), current TF status, and a footer reminding the optimal timeframe range Alerts — three individual toggles (Forming / Confirmed / Failed) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ HOW TO USE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Supported timeframes: 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h. These resolve a session's early structure cleanly while keeping enough bars inside each Judas window for the extremum tracker to work with. Recommended default: 15m or 1h. Not supported: 4h, 1D, 1W. On these timeframes a single bar exceeds the session window, so nothing is detected. The panel will show a yellow "use <=1h" hint if you accidentally switch to one of these. Recommended instruments: FX majors (EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY), index futures (NQ, ES), liquid crypto (BTC, ETH). The ATR-normalized thresholds keep the logic portable across these asset classes. Workflow suggestion: 1. Apply the indicator and let it observe several sessions so the panel populates a meaningful sample. 2. Review the 20-session success rate on your specific symbol and timeframe. This is not a forecast — it is a descriptive statistic of how the pattern has resolved in recent history on that chart. 3. Use the Forming alert as a heads-up, and the Confirmed alert as the main event. The true-direction arrow marks the bias of the remaining session, not a trade entry or exit. 4. Combine with your own structural context — higher timeframe bias, key levels, liquidity pools — before acting on any signal. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ LIMITATIONS & TRANSPARENCY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Not a strategy. This is a discretionary analysis tool; it neither places orders nor implies any specific trade setup. • Intraday timeframes only. The logic requires 1h or lower charts to resolve the session windows. On 4h, 1D or higher the indicator will not detect anything and the panel will show a "use <=1h" notice. • No forecasting. Displayed statistics describe past behavior on the current chart only and do not imply future performance. • Pattern-dependent. When price opens and trends cleanly in one direction without a fake move, the pattern legitimately will not trigger. Low signal count on such sessions is expected behavior, not a malfunction. • Session boundary sensitivity. Results depend on the configured session windows and timezone. Outside the major FX and equities session hours the ICT framing may not translate cleanly. • Extreme-volatility sessions. During very large gaps or news spikes the ATR thresholds can be dominated by a single bar; users should review the defaults in those conditions. • Symbol coverage. Pip conversion handles forex and JPY pairs explicitly and falls back to tick-based sizing for other asset types. Values are intended as relative magnitudes, not broker-specific pip quotes. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ RISK DISCLOSURE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ This indicator is provided for educational and analytical purposes only.

ALN Sessions NQ 8am Prediction Model v3ALN Sessions — NQ Structural Framework A structural analysis tool for NQ E-Mini Futures based on the Asia / London / New York overnight session relationships documented at nqstats.com. All probability data is sourced directly from the 10-year study published at nqstats.com (2016–2026, n = 2,542 sessions). Full methodology and pattern breakdown available at: nqstats.com What it does At the 08:00 ET bar close (London session end), the indicator classifies the overnight structure into one of four patterns based on how the London range relates to the Asia range: P1 - London Engulfs Asia (22% of sessions) — London expands beyond Asia on both sides. Symmetric two-way volatility into NY. No directional edge. P2 - Asia Engulfs London (6.9%) — London compresses inside Asia. Strongest setup — NY broke at least one level in every session over 10 years. P3 - Partial Engulf Up (41%) — London broke the Asia high but held the Asia low. Bullish overnight lean. High breaks in 80.8% of NY sessions. P4 - Partial Engulf Down (30.2%) — London broke the Asia low but held the Asia high. Bearish overnight lean. Low breaks in 75% of NY sessions. Features Session boxes for Asia, London, and optional NY London and Asia high/low levels extended into the NY session Break probability labels on London Hi/Lo at the NY open Previous day high/low lines with % distance Live break detection labels when London levels are crossed Conditional first-break edge display for P3 and P4 (the key edge degrades ~30pp if the wrong side breaks first) Stats dashboard table with dark/light mode Full customization — colors, label sizes, label placement, line styles, table position Credit Pattern definitions, session times, and all probability statistics are the original research of nqstats.com. This indicator is a visual implementation of that framework. Please visit nqstats.com to understand the full methodology before using this tool in a trading context.

ICT ADR & London KillzoneA session-anchored ADR projection tool built around the London Kill Zone. This indicator plots vertical lines marking the 3–4 AM EST London Kill Zone window, while simultaneously drawing a dynamic Fibonacci-style projection anchored to the Asia session open (6 PM EST) each day. The projection extends forward to the 4 PM EST close and tracks with live price action, always rendering 10 bars ahead of the current candle to give you a clean read on where price is heading relative to the day's expected range. The key levels plotted are the ADR High and ADR Low projections — framing the statistical ceiling and floor for the session — with the Asia open price marked as the anchor. Between those extremes, a 50% equilibrium line splits the range, and dotted 25% and 75% quarter-lines fill in the middle to help identify discount and premium zones within the projected range at a glance. Everything is kept intentionally minimal. Labels are text-only with no background fill — just the level name, no price. All levels share a single uniform color (black) so the indicator stays clean on any chart without competing with your PD array markups or candle structure. The goal is a quiet, always-present framework that contextualizes where price is sitting within the day's expected range, without adding visual noise. Enjoy. :)

Trading Sessions Suite [BackQuant]Trading Sessions Suite Overview Trading Sessions Suite is a full intraday structure framework built around market sessions, kill zones, and session-specific order flow . It transforms the trading day into a sequence of structured regimes, allowing you to track how liquidity, volatility, and positioning evolve across Asia, London, and New York. Instead of treating price as a continuous stream, this indicator segments the market into time-based auction phases , each with its own: Range (high and low) VWAP (fair value) Open (reference anchor) Equilibrium (midpoint) Momentum (session oscillator) It also overlays kill zones , highlighting the exact windows where volatility and participation tend to expand. Example of kill zones in action: Example combining RSI-style oscillator + VWAP structure: This tool is designed for traders who want to understand how intraday structure builds, shifts, and resolves . --- Core Philosophy Markets are not random throughout the day. Liquidity, volatility, and institutional participation are time-dependent . Each session has distinct characteristics: Asia → accumulation, compression, range-building London → expansion, breakout, liquidity grabs New York → continuation, distribution, reversal potential Rather than using static indicators, this script builds a dynamic framework tied to these time regimes . --- Session Engine The indicator tracks three primary sessions: Asia Session London Session New York Session Each session is defined by a configurable time window and processed as an independent structure. Internally, each session maintains a full state: Session high and low Session open Rolling VWAP Start index (session start) Drawn objects (box, lines, labels) Oscillator data (if enabled) This allows each session to behave like a self-contained market environment . --- Session Boxes (Auction Structure) Each session is visualized as a box: Top = session high Bottom = session low Width = duration of the session This gives you an immediate view of: Range expansion vs compression Relative volatility between sessions Where price is positioned within each session Interpretation: Tight box → compression, buildup Wide box → expansion, active participation Overlapping boxes → consolidation across sessions --- Session VWAP (Fair Value per Session) Each session has its own VWAP: VWAP = volume-weighted average price within that session only This is critical because: VWAP resets every session Reflects session-specific positioning Acts as a dynamic equilibrium level Interpretation: Price above VWAP → bullish control for that session Price below VWAP → bearish control Reversion to VWAP → mean reversion inside session Unlike standard VWAP, this gives you multiple fair value anchors per day . --- Session Open & Midline (Key References) Each session also tracks: Open Line → where the session started Midline → (high + low) / 2 These act as: Bias indicators (above/below open) Equilibrium zones (midline) Reaction levels Typical behavior: Holding above open → trend continuation Crossing midline → shift in control Rejecting midline → continuation signal --- Range Extension (Forward Liquidity Levels) When a session closes, its high and low can be extended forward. These extensions act as: Future support/resistance Liquidity targets Breakout validation zones Mechanically: High and low are projected into the next session Remain until replaced or invalidated Interpretation: Next session often trades toward previous session extremes Breaks of prior session range = regime shift --- Kill Zones (High-Probability Windows) Kill zones are specific time windows inside sessions where: Liquidity spikes Volatility expands Institutional activity increases Included zones: Asia Kill Zone London Open Kill Zone New York Open Kill Zone New York Close Kill Zone They are visualized as shaded boxes separate from session boxes. Why they matter: Most breakouts occur during kill zones Most reversals are initiated during kill zones Liquidity sweeps cluster around these times From the example: You can see how price reacts specifically within these windows. --- Session Oscillator (Embedded Momentum Engine) Each session optionally includes its own oscillator plotted directly below the session box. This is not a standard indicator overlay. It is: Bound to the session range Scaled relative to that session Reset each session Core mechanics: Uses RSI-style calculation Signal line = moving average of oscillator Stored per bar within the session Displayed as: A mini panel under each session With 30 / 50 / 70 reference levels Example: Interpretation: Above 50 → bullish momentum within session Below 50 → bearish momentum 30/70 → oversold/overbought zones This gives you contextual momentum , not global momentum. --- Why Session-Based Oscillators Matter Standard oscillators ignore time segmentation. This approach: Resets momentum every session Prevents carryover noise Aligns signals with actual trading windows So instead of: “RSI is overbought” You get: “RSI is overbought within London session” This is a much stronger contextual signal. --- Labels & Range Statistics Each session can display: Session name (ASIA, LON, NY) Range percentage This helps quantify: How much the market moved during that session Which session is dominating volatility --- Putting It All Together This indicator gives you a full intraday map: Where price moved (session boxes) Where fair value sits (VWAP) Where equilibrium lies (midline) Where momentum stands (oscillator) Where volatility expands (kill zones) Where liquidity rests (extended highs/lows) --- How to Use It 1) Identify the current session Always start with: Which session is active? Each session behaves differently. --- 2) Use VWAP + midline for bias Above VWAP + above mid → strong trend Below VWAP + below mid → bearish control Between → range --- 3) Watch kill zones for setups Breakouts during kill zones are higher probability Fake moves often occur just before them --- 4) Track previous session levels Asia high/low often targeted during London London extremes often targeted during NY --- 5) Use oscillator for confirmation Momentum aligning with structure → stronger signal Divergence → potential reversal --- Strengths Fully contextual intraday framework Combines time, price, and volume-weighted logic Visual and intuitive Highly configurable --- Summary Trading Sessions Suite converts the trading day into a structured sequence of auctions. By combining session ranges, VWAP, kill zones, and a session-specific momentum engine, it provides a complete framework for understanding how price moves throughout the day. Instead of relying on static indicators, it aligns analysis with when liquidity actually enters the market, allowing for more precise timing, better context, and cleaner trade execution.

AG Pro Kill Zone Session Engine [AGPro Series]AG Pro Kill Zone Session Engine Overview / What it does AG Pro Kill Zone Session Engine is a session-based overlay designed to map the internal range behavior of selected intraday kill zones and preserve the most relevant reference levels after each zone has ended. Instead of treating London, New York, Asia, and London Close as simple background highlights, this script organizes each enabled zone as a structured session event. During an active zone, it tracks the developing high, low, and optional midpoint. After the zone closes, it can carry those levels forward as clean horizontal references so traders can study how price interacts with prior session liquidity. The script is built for users who want more context than a basic session coloring tool. It helps visualize where a session range formed, how wide it was relative to recent history, whether the session expanded or stayed narrow, and whether later price action interacted with that session through sweep-style behavior. This is not a prediction engine and it does not attempt to forecast the next directional move. Its purpose is to structure session information into a cleaner analytical framework so traders can evaluate intraday context with more consistency. Unique Edge What makes this script different from a standard session indicator is that it does not stop at showing when a session is active. Its core focus is session range formation plus post-session interaction. Each enabled kill zone can build a live range while active, then leave behind reference levels that remain usable after the session ends. This allows the chart to show not only where a session occurred, but also how later price responded to that session. The script also adds session-width context. A zone can be classified relative to recent comparable zones so traders can quickly see whether the session was narrow, balanced, or expanded. That extra layer helps separate passive session activity from zones that created a more meaningful range. Another important distinction is the sweep engine. Rather than only drawing static levels, the script can evaluate whether later price action interacts with prior session highs or lows in a sweep-oriented manner. This makes the tool more useful for traders who study liquidity behavior around specific intraday windows. In short, this script is intended to function as a session behavior map, not as a simple background painter. Methodology The script works in four main steps. 1) Session detection The user can enable or disable the supported kill zones individually and define session windows using a UTC offset and custom time settings. This keeps the script flexible across instruments, broker feeds, and local chart preferences. 2) Range construction While a kill zone is active, the script updates the developing session high and low. Optional midpoint logic can also be shown. These values form the core session range for that specific zone. 3) Post-session reference mapping When the zone ends, the completed high and low can remain on the chart as forward reference levels. This allows later price interaction to be evaluated against a completed session range rather than only during the active zone itself. 4) Sweep and width analysis The script can evaluate reference-level interactions using its sweep logic and can also classify the completed width of a zone relative to prior zones of the same type. This helps the user distinguish between narrow, balanced, and expanded sessions. Signals & Alerts This script is primarily an analytical overlay, but it also supports alertable events around session activity and sweep behavior. Depending on the enabled options, the script can be used to monitor: - when a new kill zone becomes active, - when price interacts with a prior session high, - when price interacts with a prior session low, - when sweep-oriented behavior is detected relative to a carried-forward reference range. These events are designed to describe chart conditions, not to deliver standalone trade calls. The visual outputs can include: - session background shading, - current and completed session high/low levels, - optional midpoint levels, - compact session summary labels, - sweep markers, - an information panel showing active zone status, width context, reference zone, and sweep status. Key Inputs The script includes a focused but flexible input set so users can adapt it without overcomplicating the chart. Core controls include: - UTC offset and custom session timing, - individual enable/disable controls for Asia, London, New York, and London Close, - high/low visibility, - midpoint visibility, - projection length for completed session levels, - label density and summary behavior, - panel visibility, placement, and text sizing, - sweep mode and alert controls, - visible session memory so the chart can stay cleaner on higher timeframes. These controls allow the tool to be used in a more detailed mode on lower intraday charts or in a more compressed mode on higher timeframes. Limitations & Transparency This script is designed as a context tool. It does not define trade entries, stop placement, or risk management for the user. Session behavior can vary across instruments and feeds, so identical settings may not produce equally meaningful output on every market. Some assets respond more clearly to session-based reference levels than others. Sweep logic is also a chart-interpretation aid, not a certainty model. A detected sweep does not imply immediate reversal, continuation, or trade validity on its own. It simply highlights a specific type of interaction with a prior session reference. The script is best suited to intraday analysis. While it can still display useful information on higher timeframes, the underlying logic is rooted in session behavior, so lower intraday charts will usually provide more direct visual relevance. As with any visual overlay, increasing history depth or label density may add chart clutter. For that reason, the script includes controls to compress memory and reduce label load when needed. Risk Disclosure This script is provided for educational and analytical use only. It is not financial advice, not a signal service, and not a promise of outcome. It does not guarantee reversals, breakouts, continuations, or profitable execution. Any trading decision should be made within the user's own process, risk model, and market understanding. The intended use of this script is to help organize session structure, liquidity references, and post-session interaction on the chart so that traders can make more informed observations with a clearer visual framework.

Midnight OpenThis Midnight open indicator tracks and displays each trading day’s midnight open based on a user-selected time zone. It lets the user choose between America/New_York, the chart’s exchange time zone, UTC, GMT, or a custom GMT/UTC hour offset, then detects when midnight occurs in that time zone and captures the open price either from the chart timeframe or from a 1-minute source for better precision. It filters by trading-week mode, so the script can operate on standard Monday–Friday schedules, Sunday–Thursday futures-style weeks, or all calendar days. Once a valid midnight open is found, it plots the current day’s level as a step line on the chart and can also draw a separate horizontal line for each day, with optional labels showing the weekday, 00:00 time stamp, and active time zone. The Midnight Open indicator also keeps a rolling weekday dashboard that stores the latest Monday through Friday midnight open values and shows them in a table in the chart corner, with the active time zone included in the table header. Those table values are formatted with comma-separated numbers while preserving the instrument’s tick precision. To keep the chart clean, the script automatically limits how many historical lines and labels remain visible based on a user-defined lookback count. In addition, it generates a “new midnight open” event when a fresh daily level is captured and can fire a dynamic alert message that includes the active time zone, symbol, and timeframe, making it easier to monitor midnight reference levels across different markets and time zone settings.

Sessions ExtendedSessions Extended Based on the original "Sessions" indicator by LuxAlgo, this script is a complete rewrite and substantial expansion. It is built for traders who want control over session visualization, deep volume analytics, and a live dashboard that works on any chart timeframe from 1 minute up to 1 week. ============================================================================= WHAT CHANGED COMPARED TO THE ORIGINAL "SESSIONS" INDICATOR ============================================================================= SESSIONS Original: 4 fixed sessions (New York, London, Tokyo, Sydney) Extended: 11 fully independent sessions labeled A through K, each with its own complete settings group. The default setup covers the major forex windows: Asia, London, New York, Sydney, Tokyo I, Hong Kong, Singapore I, Tokyo II, Singapore II, EU pre-London, and US pre-NY. PER-SESSION STYLING Original: One shared background color and transparency, border always dotted, no width control. Extended: Per-session background color and transparency, fully independent of the border color. Per-session border style (Dotted / Dashed / Solid) and border width (1 to 4 pixels). Every session box can have a completely unique appearance. SESSION LABELS Original: One fixed label per session, always tiny, always at the session high. Extended: Per-session label color and size (Tiny / Small / Normal / Large / Huge). A numeric "Name Offset" input shifts the label upward by a chosen number of blank lines, keeping label height constant regardless of zoom level. An optional second label shows the actual session open and close times in HH:mm format with its own independent offset, color, and size. OVERLAYS PER SESSION Each of the 11 sessions independently supports seven overlay types: Range Box — High/Low box drawn for each session occurrence Trendline — Linear regression line (best-fit straight line through closes) Std Band — Dashed lines at +1σ and -1σ around the regression line. Works independently — Trendline does not need to be active. Bars outside the bands indicate unusual price movement. Mean — Cumulative average of all closing prices within the session, drawn as a connected line. Equal weight per bar, no volume influence. See "Understanding Mean vs VWAP" below. VWAP — Volume-Weighted Average Price. Institutional benchmark. See "Understanding Mean vs VWAP" below. Max/Min — Short horizontal tick marks at session High and Low Midpoint — Horizontal line at the 50% level of the session High/Low range EXTENDED HIGH/LOW LINES Each session can project its previous High and Low as horizontal lines extending to the right of the chart — classic support and resistance reference levels. Fully configurable per session: - Line color (independent from the session border color) - Line style: Solid, Dashed, or Dotted - Line width: 1 to 4 pixels - Optional end-of-line label showing session name and date (dd.MM.yy) - Label text color, background color, and background transparency A global "Max Extended H/L Lines" setting (Range Settings group, default 10) caps the total number of line pairs visible across all sessions combined. DAYS BACK FILTER Each session has a "Last N sessions" input. When set to 0 (default), all available history is shown. When set to 1–50, only the N most recent occurrences are drawn. The pruning applies consistently to boxes, labels, Max/Min lines, Midpoint lines, Mean lines, VWAP plots, and Extended H/L lines. TIMEZONE A "Use Exchange Timezone" checkbox follows the exchange timezone automatically (syminfo.timezone). When unchecked, a UTC Offset field (−12 to +14) enables manual adjustment. This is particularly useful for handling Daylight Saving Time transitions without needing to touch any session time strings. ============================================================================= THE DASHBOARD — COMPLETE REFERENCE ============================================================================= ENABLING AND POSITIONING Find the Dashboard group in Settings. Toggle "Show Dashboard" to show or hide the panel. Choose from four positions (Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right) and four sizes (Tiny, Small, Normal, Large). DASHBOARD MODES The dashboard has three display modes, selected via the "Volume & Sigma columns" and "Show Buy/Sell Volume" toggles: Standard mode (both off): Session | Trend Advanced mode (Volume & Sigma on): Session | Volume | Sigma | Trend Advanced + Buy/Sell mode (both on): Session | Volume | Sigma | ▲Buy ▼Sell | Trend COLUMN DESCRIPTIONS Session The session name (e.g. ASIA, LONDON, NEW YORK). The cell background changes color to reflect the session state: Active background color — session currently open Inactive background color — session closed today (snapshot visible) Dimmed border color — session not yet started today or yesterday data Volume Total traded volume for the session's measurement window. Updates live while the session is open. Freezes as a snapshot when it closes. Calculated at 1-minute resolution via request.security — accurate on any chart timeframe. Sigma (σ) Standard deviation of closing prices within the session. Measures how much price spread around its average. A high Sigma indicates a volatile, wide-ranging session. A low Sigma indicates tight, consolidating price action. Updates live, freezes on session close. ▲Buy ▼Sell (optional, "Show Buy/Sell Volume") Volume split by bar direction. Up-bars (Close ≥ Open) count as buy volume, down-bars count as sell. Note: this is an approximation — Pine Script cannot access TradingView's internal tick-level buy/sell data. Open / High / Low (optional, "Show O/H/L + Change") The session's opening price, highest traded price, and lowest traded price. These are permanent historical facts and remain visible (dimmed) even after the session closes and after the trading day resets. Chg (optional, "Show O/H/L + Change") The change from session Open to session Close: Close − Open. Display format: +1.234 green — session closed above its open (bullish) -1.234 red — session closed below its open (bearish) ±0.000 grey — session closed exactly at its open (neutral) The three colors (up, down, flat) are independently configurable. Trend (r²) The R-squared value of the linear regression for the session. Ranges from −1.00 to +1.00. Positive values indicate an upward trend, negative values a downward trend. Values near 0 indicate a sideways/choppy session. The cell background is colored green (bullish) or red (bearish) based on the sign, making trend direction scannable at a glance. Timer (optional, "Show Timer column") Countdown to the next relevant session event: ▼ HH:MM — session is currently open, counting down to close ▲ HH:MM — session is closed, counting up to next open ▲ Xd HH:MM — session opens in more than 24 hours (e.g. weekend gap) The timer is updated in real time using timenow. It is visible at all times, including when the market is closed. Weekend gaps are handled correctly: sessions that open Monday morning show 2d+ on Friday evening, while sessions still opening later on Friday show the same-day countdown. The timer text is colored with the active session color when open, or dimmed when the session is waiting to open. DAY TOTAL ROW When one or more sessions have "In Day Total" checked in their settings, a Day Total row appears at the bottom of the dashboard. It shows: - The sum of all Volume values from today's In-Day-Total sessions - The average Sigma across those sessions Critically , Day Total counts only sessions that have actually run since the last anchor-session reset — not yesterday's data. If ASIA (the default anchor) opened at 18:00 EST and New York has not yet run today, New York's data from the previous day will appear in its row (dimmed) but will not be included in Day Total. YESTERDAY ROW When all sessions have closed, a Yesterday row appears showing the prior trading day's totals for comparison. This row disappears once the new trading day begins. STALE DATA — THREE BRIGHTNESS LEVELS The dashboard uses text brightness to communicate data age at a glance: Full brightness — session is currently active (live data) Dimmed — session ran and closed today (today's snapshot) More dimmed — session has data from the previous day (no run today yet) Near-invisible — session has no data at all (never run or newly enabled) The dim percentage is configurable ("Stale data text dim", 0–90%). RESET LOGIC — HOW THE TRADING DAY IS DEFINED The dashboard needs to know when a new trading day begins. This is controlled by "Reset Stats when Session starts" in the Dashboard group (default: A = ASIA). When the selected anchor session opens: - All "ran today" tracking flags are cleared - Day Total recalculates from zero - Sessions not yet run show their previous data dimmed until they run again Snapshot data inside each session's measurement function persists until the session runs again and overwrites it. This means US pre-NY data from 08:30 yesterday is still visible in the dashboard at 04:00 today, correctly dimmed, and correctly excluded from Day Total. VOLUME MEASUREMENT WINDOW Each session has a separate "Vol window" session input. By default this matches the display session, but you can narrow it. For example, you could display the full 18-hour ASIA box but only measure volume for the first two hours of activity. The Vol window does not affect the displayed box or overlays — it only affects Volume, Sigma, Buy/Sell, and Trend statistics. DASHBOARD COLORS (configurable) Active cell background — highlight color for currently open sessions Inactive cell background — color for closed sessions with today's data Text color — all non-highlighted cell text Border color — table grid lines Background — dashboard panel fill and transparency Change Up / Down / Flat — three independent colors for the Chg column Stale data dim % — how strongly to dim closed and yesterday data ============================================================================= UNDERSTANDING MEAN vs VWAP ============================================================================= Mean is the simple average of all closing prices within the session: (Close₁ + Close₂ + ... + Closeₙ) / N Every bar contributes equally regardless of how much was traded. Mean shows the geometric center of price over time — a neutral, unweighted reference. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price): Σ(Close × Volume) / Σ(Volume) Bars with high volume pull the VWAP toward them. Institutions use VWAP as the primary benchmark for execution quality. A price above VWAP signals that the session is running bullish on a volume-weighted basis; below is bearish. The practical difference: when a sharp directional move occurs on thin volume, Mean shifts significantly because it counts each bar equally. VWAP barely reacts because little volume participated in the move. This divergence — Mean far from VWAP — can itself be a signal that the move lacks conviction. ============================================================================= DEFAULT SESSION CONFIGURATION (UTC-5 / New York EST) ============================================================================= A ASIA 18:00 – 02:00 In Day Total, Anchor Reset (enabled) B LONDON 02:00 – 08:00 In Day Total (enabled) C NEW YORK 08:00 – 17:00 In Day Total (enabled) D Sydney 18:00 – 00:00 (enabled) E Tokyo I 19:00 – 21:30 (enabled) F Hong Kong 20:30 – 03:00 (enabled) G Singapore I 20:00 – 23:00 (enabled) H Tokyo II 22:30 – 01:00 (enabled) I Singapore II 06:00 – 10:00 (enabled) J EU pre-Lon 02:00 – 03:00 (enabled) K US pre-NY 08:00 – 09:30 (enabled) All times are in UTC-5 (New York EST). Adjust the UTC Offset setting or enable "Use Exchange Timezone" to match your local time. Sessions H through K are disabled by default. Enable them in their respective settings group. Note that newly enabled sessions will show no data until they have run at least once after being activated. ============================================================================= SETUP GUIDE — GETTING STARTED ============================================================================= Step 1 — Timezone Open Settings → Timezone. If your instrument uses the exchange timezone natively, enable "Use Exchange Timezone". Otherwise set UTC Offset to your local offset (e.g. -5 for New York EST, +1 for Berlin CET). If your region uses DST and TradingView does not adjust automatically, update this offset manually at DST transitions. Step 2 — Sessions Sessions A (ASIA), B (LONDON), and C (NEW YORK) are enabled by default with commonly used forex hours. Adjust the session time strings to match your instrument's actual active hours. Enable additional sessions (D through K) as needed from their settings groups. Step 3 — Dashboard Open Settings → Dashboard. Enable "Show Dashboard". Choose your preferred position and size. Enable "Volume & Sigma columns" for full statistics. Enable "Show Timer column" to see live countdowns. Configure which sessions should contribute to Day Total via the "In Day Total" checkbox in each session's group. Step 4 — Overlays For each session you want to analyze deeply, enable the overlays relevant to your strategy. Recommended starting set: Range Box (always on), VWAP for institutional context, Mean for a price-weighted counterpart, Std Band for volatility context. Step 5 — Extended H/L Lines Enable "Ext H/L" in any session group to project that session's previous High and Low forward as S/R references. Set "Max Extended H/L Lines" in Range Settings to a comfortable number (default: 10 pairs total). Step 6 — Days Back If your chart history is long and performance is slow, set "Last N sessions" in each session group to limit how many occurrences are drawn (e.g. 5 to 20). ============================================================================= ALERTS ============================================================================= 22 alert conditions are available — one "Session Start" and one "Session End" for each of the 11 sessions. Alerts fire only when the corresponding session's "Show" toggle is enabled. Set alerts via the Add Alert dialog in TradingView, selecting this indicator from the condition dropdown. ============================================================================= LIMITATIONS AND KNOWN BEHAVIOR ============================================================================= Buy/Sell volume approximation Up-bar (Close ≥ Open) = Buy volume. Down-bar = Sell volume. True tick-level data is not accessible in Pine Script. Treat this column as directional sentiment, not precise order flow. Initial load time 11 request.security calls at 1-minute resolution cause a delay when first applying the indicator to a chart with long history. This is a Pine Script constraint — the 1m resolution is required for accuracy on higher timeframes. request.security usage This script uses 12 of Pine Script's 40 allowed request.security calls (11 session functions + 1 anchor-reset detector), leaving 28 available if you build on top of this script. Short sessions on high timeframes Sessions shorter than the chart's bar duration (e.g. a 30-minute session on a 4H chart) may not be detected. Use a lower timeframe for short sessions. Timer and market holidays The countdown timer uses calendar arithmetic, not an exchange trading calendar. On public holidays the timer will count down to the session time as if it were a normal trading day. Weekend detection (Friday evening, Saturday) is handled correctly for standard Mon–Fri market hours. Dashboard layout Table positions are limited to the four corners as defined by Pine Script's table API. Sub-corner pixel positioning is not supported. ============================================================================= CREDITS ============================================================================= Original indicator: Sessions by LuxAlgo This derivative is an independent rewrite published under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. creativecommons.org Commercial use is prohibited.
