Session Volume Spike DetectorSession Volume Spike Detector (Buy/Sell, Dual Windows, MTF + Edge/Cooldown)
What it does
Detects statistically significant buy/sell volume spikes inside two DST-aware Mountain Time sessions and projects 1m / 5m / 10m signals onto any chart timeframe (even 1s). Spikes are confirmed at the close of their native bar and are edge-triggered with optional cooldowns to prevent duplicate alerts.
How spikes are detected
Volume ≥ SMA × multiplier
Optional jump vs recent highest volume
Optional Z-Score gate for significance
Separate Buy/Sell logic using your Direction Mode (Prev Close or Candle Body)
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) display
Shows 1m, 5m, 10m arrows on your current chart
Each HTF fires once on its bar close (no repaint after close)
Sessions (DST-aware, MT)
Morning: 05:30–08:30
Midday: 11:00–13:30
Spikes only count inside these windows.
Inputs & styling
Thresholds: SMA length, multipliers, recent lookback, Z-Score toggle/level
Toggles for which TFs to display (chart TF, 1m, 5m, 10m)
Per-TF colors + cooldowns (seconds) for Any TF, 1m, 5m, 10m
Alerts (edge + cooldown)
MTF Volume Spike (Any TF) — fires on the first qualifying spike across enabled TFs
1m / 5m / 10m Volume Spike — per-TF alerts, Buy or Sell
Recommended: set alert Trigger = Once per bar close. Cooldowns tame “triggered too often” warnings.
Great with
FVG zones, bank/insto levels, session range breaks, and trend filters. Use the MTF arrows as a participation/pressure tell to confirm or fade moves.
Notes
Works on any symbol/timeframe; best viewed on 1m or sub-minute charts.
HTF spikes appear on the bar close of 1m/5m/10m respectively.
No dynamic plot titles; Pine v6-safe.
Short summary (≤250 chars):
MTF volume-spike detector for intraday sessions (DST-aware, MT). Projects 1m/5m/10m buy/sell spikes onto any chart, with edge-triggered alerts and per-TF cooldowns to prevent duplicates. Ideal for spotting institutional participation.

30 Second Futures Session Open RangeThis indicator displays 30 second opening ranges from Globex, Europe, and RTH sessions.
From the RTH session range, it also displays infinitely generating Price Targets based on a % of the opening range size.
I am retrieving the 30 second data using the new "request.security_lower_tf()" function.
The importance of these levels is based on the idea that when the market opens, algorithms establish their positions within the first 30 seconds.
These areas can also be seen as potential areas of support and resistance throughout the sessions.
Enjoy!
ICT NY Futures Indices Session Model - YT New York MentorshipThis indicator plots out the time periods and open lines as outlined in ICT's 2022 Mentorship and is designed specifically for the New York futures trading session.
Time zone is set to GMT-4 (NY) by default but can be changed for accommodate daylight saving in the menu.
Please note this indicator is to be used only on the 30min timeframe and below.
Here are its features:
The background color shows the morning session, in two parts (8.30am to 9.30am and 9.30am to 11.30am), then a two hour gap for lunch (ICT calls this "Dead time") and finally, the afternoon session, also to two (1.30pm to 3pm and 3pm to 4pm).
It not only shows the current killzones, but future zones as well.
These times are important; trades can be framed within these zones as taught in the mentorship.
Next are the open lines. These lines are automatically plotted and can be areas for price to react off of; they are the opening price of a candle at these times:
00.00 (New York Midnight, also known as "True Day Open")
8.30am (New York Equities pre-open)
9.30am (New York Equities open)
2.00am (London Stock Exchange open)
And lastly, London's trading session High and Low are projected forward onto the New York trading session.
These two price points are areas of liquidity that were pooled during London, but they can also often set the high or low of the day.
Please let me know if there are any bugs or if you have suggestions for the next update.

USA SessionThe USA session (9:30am to 4:00pm) is the most volatile session during market hours. Because of this, previous day OHLC values during that time frame are important to stock traders. For future traders, these and the overnight high/low are important. This indicator overlays the open, previous day open, previous day close, previous day high and previous day low (of the USA session) onto most stock chart. And for most future charts, this indicator will also plot the overnight high and low.
How to use
Currently, this indicator is only intended to work on stock and future assets. I'm not sure what will happen when used with other assets, but that's not my problem. This will also only work on a 5 minute chart, but I am working to have it function with all intraday time frames. When viewing stocks, you have to turn off the Extended Hours view in chart settings, else the calculated values will be garbage.
Assuming your chart meets those 3 constraints, this indicator should work automatically, all values are displayed by default. It may take a while to process when you first add this indicator. If you are only viewing stocks, you may want to disable the overnight levels as they will always be n/a. When viewing stocks, levels are not drawn on the last bar for the US session (3:55pm) to avoid ugly connecting lines between sessions. If you want those lines to connect, it can be enables in the indicator settings.
If levels are not flat across the whole session or you are still experiencing difficulties/inconsistencies please review the known issues below.
Knows issues
This indicator breaks when the asset is missing data. If a bar is missing, this indicator will break and move to a different level that is no longer valid. You can tell a bar is missing because the time will jump, for example, from 2:15 to 2:25 instead of 2:20. Unfortunately, I think this is an issue with the data feed and I have no way of correcting this. From the test I have done with the data feed I have, this has not been a big problem with more popular assets, but results will vary. A more professional data feed may be required for consistent and proper results.
During my tests, I found that my future assets are always missing data from 3:10pm to 3:25pm. It was so consistent, I put code in to correct it. However, I'm not sure if other people will experience this same issue, or if the issue varies. Because of this, I there is a 'Fix missing data bug' input in the indicator settings that is enabled by default. If you are missing data from 3:10pm to 3:25pm on your futures chart (like myself) make sure this stays on. If you have data during this time, you need to turn that setting off.
This indicator only works when the USA session opens/closes at its regular time. Days that do no follow this rule may produce garbage levels. Don't worry, they will work fine the next day!
BTC NY Session Envelopes: Dynamic Levels & Settle AlertsCore Concept and Genesis
Born from forex institutional timing principles, this tool has been precision-engineered for the relentless pace of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets. It visualizes adaptive session-derived boundaries—spanning weekly, daily, and Asia-specific envelopes—capped with a Friday US settlement "sentinel" zone. Enhanced with targeted alerts for crossings of Asia highs/lows, daily highs/lows, weekly highs/lows, and the settle midpoint, it empowers traders to capture momentum shifts in real-time, transforming raw price data into actionable intelligence for volatile, non-stop assets.
The Fusion Edge: What Sets This Apart
This isn't a generic level plotter; it's a synergistic ecosystem where NY-timed envelopes intersect to reveal hidden confluences, like Asia's quiet buildup funneling into daily volatility spikes or the US settle acting as a "gap magnet" for weekend resolutions. Tailored for BTC's unique liquidity flows, it employs a low-timeframe data pull for noise-free accuracy, sidestepping common pitfalls in 24/7 charts. The built-in alerts—firing on precise crossovers—add a proactive layer, alerting to potential "liquidity hunts" or reversals (e.g., a breakout above weekly high amid high volume). In personal simulations across 500+ BTC sessions, this setup flagged ~65% of high-conviction moves with fewer false positives than isolated tools—always backtest to confirm your edge.
Inner Mechanics: A Transparent Peek
Weekly/Daily Envelopes: Anchored to 5pm NY resets for institutional alignment; computes highs/lows/mids through ongoing max/min accumulation, sourced from a user-defined sub-timeframe for cross-chart reliability.
Asia Envelope: A dynamic 8pm-3am NY capture window that evolves bar-by-bar, spotlighting pre-London setups often overlooked in crypto.
US Settle Sentinel: Zeroes in on Friday's 4:45pm NY 15-minute finale, rendering a containment box and midpoint to forecast post-weekend reactions. Overlaps are intelligently clustered in labels for at-a-glance clarity, with extension options for forward projection.
Timeframe-Adaptive Visibility: To declutter higher timeframes and focus on relevant horizons, the Asia envelope auto-hides on charts above 1hr, while daily envelopes vanish above 4hr—ensuring a streamlined view for swing or position traders without sacrificing intraday detail.
Alert System: Leverages crossover/crossunder detection on closing prices against levels, with granular triggers (e.g., "Surge Beyond Asia Low") for customized notifications—perfect for webhook integrations or mobile pings.
Strategic Deployment and Scenarios
BTC Day-Trading Playbook: Initiate longs when price rebounds from Asia low near a daily mid, amplified by an alert on "Dip Below Daily Low" for entry confirmation—pair with external volume spikes for confluence.
Trend Harmony: Overlay with a 200-period EMA; use "Breach Under Weekly High" alerts to exit longs in downtrends, safeguarding against fakeouts.
Caveats and Optimization: Thrives in momentum-driven phases but tune out in ultra-low volatility; alerts activate post-bar, so layer with candlestick patterns. Ideal for 15m-4H frames on perpetual futures like BTCUSDT.P.
Exclusive Access Rationale (If Restricted) The bespoke crypto recalibrations, seamless multi-envelope fusion, and alert-driven foresight deliver a tactical advantage absent in off-the-shelf alternatives—reach out via TradingView message for tailored access and optimization insights.

B A N K $ - Advanced Session RangesThis is a simple indicator that has been designed to aid intraday trading and has a few components;
Key Features
Session Ranges + Optimal Exit Time
Asia Pip Range
New York Midnight Open Line
Session Ranges + Optimal Exit Time
Information ℹ️
This is a visual depiction of the 3 main sessions in the markets. Asia, London & New York. The default timings are set to perfectly align with each session however the Start & End times for each session can be changed in the settings. (I've added a website on the tooltip to easily convert timezones)
I have also added a 4th session range called "Optimal Exit Time". This is statistically the most probable time window for the opposite High / Low of Day to form is within this window. It helps the trader understand when they should look to take profit.
How It Works 🔑
The indicator automatically maps on two lines for the High & Low of the range between the selected Start & End time, it also colours the background.
The individual lines & background can be toggled & customised to the traders preference.
Asia Pip Range
Information ℹ️
This displays the Asia Range in pips beneath the Asia Session Low.
How It Works 🔑
This calculates the distance between the Asia High - Asia Low in pips. It will automatically recalibrate to the timings the trader sets in the settings if they change the Start / End.
New York Midnight Open Line
Information ℹ️
This helps look for Buys beneath the line for a Bullish Expansion day 📈 & Sells above the line for a Bearish Expansion day 📉
How It Works 🔑
This adds a horizontal line to the chart that is anchored to New York Midnight Open (00:00) by default. It can be changed in the settings in required. You can also toggle on the time being shown above the line.

Max/Min Custom Sessions and Day Before - MarposIt takes the maximum and minimum session prices according to the entered time ranges and display them on the screen. When those values are reached, it marks them as taken.
Additionally, it displays the values and how much they moved in PIPs during those sessions in a table in the top left corner using the difference between max and min values.
Also, mark the background of the sessions on the chart according to the entered time ranges.
Furthermore, draw the D-1 highs and lows for each day to see the previous day's possible liquidity levels. It doesnt mark them as Taken when that happens because i couldnt realize how to do it, yet :).
Any questions or suggestions, feel free to contact me and ill do my best.
Tradesharpe Session BiasThis script is designed for traders who want help defining their session bias it is for people who trade in sessions which will most likely be 1 4h candle. The way I trade using Price action to get my daily bias, to either look for sells or buys or both I look at the previous daily candle close and previous 4hr candle close before analyzing the structure on the lower time frames to get my session bias of bullish/bearish. so this indicator compares the daily and 4hr candles to develop a bias for example
previous daily bullish + Previous 4hr Bullish = BULLISH BIAS
previous daily Bearish + Previous 4hr Bearish = BEARISH BIAS
if Daily bullish 4hr bearish = MIXED SESSION
if daily bearish 4hr bullish = MIXED SESSION
MIXED SESSION = Can argue both buys and sells
BEARISH SESSION = Best to look for Sells only based on my trading style
BULLISH SESSION = Best to look for Buys only based on my trading style
Forex sessions with daylight savingsThis will adjust with Daylight Savings (DS) however you will need to update the start and end dates of DS once each year. That said, it's valid for 2021 and I'll try to remember to update this script each year so people don't have up to do the update of the DL start and end dates.
If there is a way to know these dates automatically in pine script someone please let me know.
Notice that Sydney has an offset of -1 instead of 1 for DS since being on the other side of the planet (sorry flat Earthers but this is a side-effect of a globe) they need to put their clocks backwards for DS instead of forwards.
Features:
Shows sessions for: Frankfurt, London, New York, Sydney & Tokyo
Includes Daylight savings changes
Has a legend you can display and hide to see which colors are for which sessions around the world
Allows you to show or hide each session individually
Allows you to display the legend in the same opacity as the indicators or 0 opacity to make it more readable.
This is my first public script so feedback most welcomed.
MF Custom Sessions - Asian to LondonThis indicator is meant to be used as a visual aid for understanding when major volumes / session timings are taking place. Asian to london sessions are covered.
NSDT Session Background ShadingA simple script to add background colors to specific timeframes. Great for trading futures so you can separate sessions for easier viewing. Use for stocks to separate pre, open, and post market times.
There are three timeframes that can be set and all colors can be modified.
