Advanced Session Profile Predictor with SR Boxes & ORAdvanced Session Profile Predictor with Momentum Arrows
Designed for intraday traders, this indicator analyzes price action across Asia, London, and New York sessions to predict market profiles and highlight key trading opportunities. By combining session-based profiling, Opening Range (OR) visualization, and momentum signals from Traders Dynamic Index (TDI), it offers a unique tool for anticipating trends, reversals, and breakouts. Ideal for forex, indices, and crypto on 15M–1H charts.
What Makes This Indicator Unique?
Unlike typical session indicators that only mark time zones or standard TDI scripts that focus on momentum, this tool:
Predicts market profiles (e.g., "Trend Continuation," "NY Manipulation") by analyzing session ranges and directional moves, offering actionable insights into how sessions interact.
Visualizes Opening Range (OR) boxes for the first 15 minutes of each session, helping traders spot early breakout levels.
Integrates TDI with momentum to generate precise bullish/bearish arrows, filtered by session context for improved reliability.
Simplifies decision-making with dynamic profile labels showing real-time long/short conditions based on price levels.
How Does It Work?
Session Tracking:
Asia (00:00–08:00 UTC, yellow), London (08:00–16:00 UTC, red), and New York (13:00–21:00 UTC, blue) sessions are highlighted with background colors and high/low lines (crosses).
OR boxes (first 15 minutes) are drawn for each session: yellow for Asia, red for London, blue for NY.
Profile Prediction:
Compares Asia and London session ranges and directions (e.g., trending if range > 1.5x 5-period SMA).
Examples:
Trend Continuation: Asia and London trend in the same direction—long above Asia high (uptrend) or short below Asia low (downtrend).
NY Manipulation: Asia trends, London consolidates—watch for NY breakouts at London high/low.
Displays the predicted profile and entry conditions in labels (e.g., "IF price hits 1.2000 LONG").
Momentum Arrows:
Uses TDI (RSI period 21, bands 34, fast MA 2) and 12-period momentum.
Green up arrow: Fast MA > upper band (>68) and momentum rising (bullish).
Red down arrow: Fast MA < lower band (<32) and momentum falling (bearish).
Support/Resistance (SR):
Plots dynamic SR boxes based on pivot highs/lows, filtered by volume (inspired by ChartPrime’s methodology, credited below).
How to Use It
Setup: Apply to a 15M–1H chart. Adjust time zone (default: UTC) and session times if needed. Customize TDI/momentum settings for sensitivity.
Trading:
Check the top-right labels for the current profile and entry conditions (e.g., "IF price hits LONG/SHORT").
Confirm entries with green up arrows (bullish) or red down arrows (bearish).
Use OR boxes and session high/low lines to identify breakout or reversal levels.
Example: In "NY Manipulation," wait for price to hit London high (long) or low (short) during NY session, confirmed by an arrow.
Best Markets: Forex (EUR/USD), indices (SPX500), crypto (BTC/USD) with sufficient intraday volatility.
Underlying Concepts
Session Profiling: Detects trends (range > SMA * threshold) and manipulation (e.g., London breaking Asia’s high/low) to predict NY behavior.
OR Boxes: Marks the first 15 minutes’ high/low as a breakout zone (time-based, 900,000 ms).
TDI + Momentum: Combines RSI-based bands with price change (close – close ) for momentum signals.
SR Boxes: Identifies pivots over a lookback period (default 20), scaled by ATR and filtered by volume thresholds.
Credits
The SR box logic is inspired by ChartPrime’s volume-filtered support/resistance methodology, adapted with custom breakout/hold detection. Original authors are credited for their foundational work.
Chart Setup
Displays session backgrounds, OR boxes, high/low lines, TDI arrows, and profile labels. Keep other indicators off for clarity.
New York Sessions Morning, Lunch and afternoon. AMKDescription
The script is designed to highlight the New York Stock Exchange's trading day, broken down into three specific sub-sessions: morning, lunchtime, and afternoon. Each sub-session is color-coded to provide an immediate visual cue about which portion of the trading day is currently active. Additionally, this script allows the user to adjust the time zone offset, making it adaptable for traders in different time zones around the world.
Originality
While there are scripts that highlight the entire trading day or specific market hours, this script adds granularity by breaking down the New York trading session into its typical behavioral parts: the morning rush, the lunchtime lull, and the afternoon action. The addition of an adjustable time zone offset is a unique feature that makes the tool more versatile and accommodating to a global user base.
Usefulness
The ability to visualize these different trading sessions can be valuable for various types of traders:
Day Traders: The script helps to immediately identify which session they are in, aiding in their trading strategy as market behavior can vary between these periods.
Swing Traders: They may use these sub-sessions to time their entries or exits, especially if they're based in different time zones.
Market Analysts: The color-coded sessions provide a quick way to analyze the historical performance and volatility of an asset during different trading periods.
Global Traders: The time zone adjustment feature makes it easy for traders outside of the Eastern Time Zone to customize the script according to their local time, increasing its utility across different markets.
Educational Purpose: For new traders, this could serve as an educational tool to understand the typical behavior of the stock market at different times of the day.
So, whether you're timing an intraday entry or looking for patterns tied to specific market sessions, this script offers a straightforward, visual way to keep track of where you are in the trading day.

Futures Exchange SessionsIn the 24-hour trading of the futures market, this indicator provides the user with full customization concerning the most important factor: time. This indicator is centered around three main visualizations: labels, backgrounds, and lines that minimalistically allows the user to keep track of the many time intervals that occur during a futures market 24-hour trading cycle. It also artfully displays the previous days highs and lows. And everything can be individually toggled and configured so the user can get exactly what they want.
Labels
There are three main futures market sessions in a 24-hour period: the London, New York, and Asian Sessions. Each session is given an independent label for the open and close times. The six labels (LO, LC, NYO, NYC, AO, AC) can be individually toggled on or off, the label background color changed, the text switched between black or white, and the height can be lowered or raised. These customizations are intended to give the user full control of the session they are interested in at the moment.
Backgrounds
Backgrounds are the heart of this indicator. There are different colored transparent backgrounds for each of the futures sessions. So the user can clearly see the session they want to highlight without cluttering their chart and getting in the way of analyzing the candles.
If you are familiar with the London and New York killzones, these backgrounds are each individually configured.
If you are familiar with the Inner Circle Trader’s (ICT) NY Morning and Afternoon sessions, these are available. Also, most times weird price action occurs during the lunch hour of these sessions. The London and New York have a background for their respective lunch hours so the user is never caught of guard during these periods.
Lines
The markets are constantly looking for liquidity. To help the user see runs on liquidity, this indicator projects the previous days highs and lows on to the current day with a line and a price label. The line make it very easy to see where price may be headed. See the image below for the perfect example of this phenomenon. Each of the lines can be independently controlled by color, style, and width. And even the labels can be toggled on or off if the user would prefer just to see the lines. Lastly, there is a line that marks the midnight open price in EST.
Special Notes
This indicator is specifically designed for futures tickers.
All of the backgrounds are not designed to be turned on a once (there are many that overlap). They are designed to give the user ultimate control over exactly what timeframe backgrounds to display on their charts.
The labels only appear when timeframe is 1 hour or less.
Volume by SessionThis indicator shows volume separated by session. The aim is clarify which session a volume bar occurred in and how it compares to the average of that session - NOT ALL SESSIONS.
The logic is that there is little value comparing for example the volume of the London session against volume of the London-NY session - the London-NY will always have higher volume. But how does today's london compare to yesterdays london or the london average.
The indicator has moving averages that only consider the average of previous episodes of the same session - so the average on the london session is the average of the past 5 london sessions (NY and asia and London-NY are not included in the calculation of the MA).
The indicator goes as high as 1H timeframe and the average line does not function below 5 mins - thats a limitation on available data to calculate it.
There's also a 'dark screen' function. Thats because I like a black background so the colours need to be inverted.
Hope its useful. Good luck.

Aftershock by Session [SAKANE]■ Background & Motivation
In 24/7 markets like crypto, not all participants react simultaneously to major events.
Instead, reactions unfold across different regional trading sessions — Asia (APAC), Europe (EU), and the United States (US) — each with its own tempo and sentiment.
This indicator is designed to visualize which session drives the market after a key event — capturing the "aftershock" effect that ripples through time zones.
■ Key Features
Tracks price return (open → close) for each session: APAC / EU / US
Cumulative session returns are calculated and visualized
Smoothing options: SMA, EMA, or Ehlers SuperSmoother
Optimized for daily charts to highlight structural momentum shifts
Toggle visibility of each session independently
■ Why “Aftershock”?
Take April 2, 2025 — the day of the “Trump Tariff Opening.”
That policy announcement triggered a market-wide response. But:
Which session reacted first?
Which session truly moved the market?
This indicator is named “Aftershock” because it helps you see the ripple effect of such events — when and where momentum followed.
■ How to Use
Search for “Aftershock by Session ” on TradingView
Add it to your chart (use Daily timeframe)
Customize sessions and smoothing options via settings
You can also bookmark it for quick access.
■ Insights & Use Cases
Detect which session initiated or led market moves after news events
Understand geo-temporal dynamics — did the move start in Asia, Europe, or the US?
For example, on April 2, 2025, the day Trump’s tariff pivot was announced:
You can instantly see which session took the lead —
the APAC session hesitated, while the US session drove the trend.
This insight becomes visually obvious with the cumulative lines.
■ Unique Value
Unlike typical indicators based on raw price action,
Aftershock analyzes market movement through a session-based structural lens.
It captures where capital actually moved — and when.
A tool not just for technical analysis, but for event-driven, macro-aware market reading.
■ Final Thoughts
To truly understand market mechanics, we must look beyond candles and trends.
Aftershock by Session breaks down the 24-hour cycle into meaningful regional flows,
allowing you to track the true drivers behind price momentum.
Whether you're trading, researching, or tracking macro catalysts,
this tool helps answer the key question:
“Who moved the market — and when?”
Market DNA: Structure, Volume, Range, and SessionsMarket DNA: Structure, Volume, Range, and Sessions**
The Market DNA indicator combines market structure, volume analysis, trading ranges, and global trading sessions into a single, comprehensive tool for traders. It helps identify key price levels, volume patterns, consolidation phases, and active market periods, enabling informed trading decisions.
Market Structure Detects swing highs and lows using `ta.pivothigh` and `ta.pivotlow`, plotting them as red/green triangles to highlight support/resistance and trend reversals.
- Fractal Volume Zones (FVG): Highlights areas of significant buying/selling pressure by comparing current volume to an average over a lookback period; high-volume zones are marked with a semi-transparent blue background.
- Trading Range: Defines a price channel using the Average True Range (ATR) and a multiplier, creating upper/lower bands to identify consolidation, breakouts, and potential trade levels.
- Market Sessions: Highlights major global trading sessions (Asia, Europe, US) with colored backgrounds (purple, teal, yellow) to indicate liquidity and volatility shifts.
How It Works
- Swing points help analyze trends and reversals.
- FVG confirms price movements with high volume for stronger signals.
- Trading range bands assist in identifying breakout opportunities and setting stops/take-profits.
- Session highlights allow traders to adapt strategies based on regional activity.
Customization
- Adjust `swing_length` for sensitivity in detecting turning points.
- Modify `volume_lookback` to control volume averaging.
- Tune `range_multiplier` for wider/narrower trading bands.
- Enable/disable session highlighting via `session_highlight`.
Use Cases
- Identify trends and key levels using swing points and FVG.
- Spot breakout opportunities with trading range bands.
- Adapt strategies to regional trading sessions for optimal timing.
This all-in-one indicator provides a clear, customizable view of the market, empowering traders to make data-driven decisions across asset classes and timeframes.
AMD Session Structure Levels# Market Structure & Manipulation Probability Indicator
## Overview
This advanced indicator is designed for traders who want a systematic approach to analyzing market structure, identifying manipulation, and assessing probability-based trade setups. It incorporates four core components:
### 1. Session Price Action Analysis
- Tracks **OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close)** within defined sessions.
- Implements a **dual tracking system**:
- **Official session levels** (fixed from the session open to close).
- **Real-time max/min tracking** to differentiate between temporary spikes and real price acceptance.
### 2. Market Manipulation Detection
- Identifies **manipulative price action** using the relationship between the open and close:
- If **price closes below open** → assumes **upward manipulation**, followed by **downward distribution**.
- If **price closes above open** → assumes **downward manipulation**, followed by **upward distribution**.
- Normalized using **ATR**, ensuring adaptability across different volatility conditions.
### 3. Probability Engine
- Tracks **historical wick ratios** to assess trend vs. reversal conditions.
- Calculates **conditional probabilities** for price moves.
- Uses a **special threshold system (0.45 and 0.03)** for reversal signals.
- Provides **real-time probability updates** to enhance trade decision-making.
### 4. Market Condition Classification
- Classifies market conditions using a **wick-to-body ratio**:
```pine
wick_to_body_ratio = open > close ? upper_wick / (high - low) : lower_wick / (high - low)
```
- **Low ratio (<0.25)** → Likely a **trend day**.
- **High ratio (>0.25)** → Likely a **range day**.
---
## Why This Indicator Stands Out
### ✅ Smarter Level Detection
- Uses **ATR-based dynamic levels** instead of static support/resistance.
- Differentiates **manipulation from distribution** for better decision-making.
- Updates probabilities **in real-time**.
### ✅ Memory-Efficient Design
- Implements **circular buffers** to maintain efficiency:
```pine
var float manipUp = array.new_float(lookbackPeriod, 0.0)
var float manipDown = array.new_float(lookbackPeriod, 0.0)
```
- Ensures **constant memory usage**, even over extended trading sessions.
### ✅ Advanced Probability Calculation
- Utilizes **conditional probabilities** instead of simple averages.
- Incorporates **market context** through wick analysis.
- Provides **actionable signals** via a probability table.
---
## Trading Strategy Guide
### **Best Entry Setups**
✅ Wait for **price to approach manipulation levels**.
✅ Confirm using the **probability table**.
✅ Check the **wick ratio for context**.
✅ Enter when **conditional probability aligns**.
### **Smart Exit Management**
✅ Use **distribution levels** as **profit targets**.
✅ Scale out **when probabilities shift**.
✅ Monitor **wick percentiles** for confirmation.
### **Risk Management**
✅ Size positions based on **probability readings**.
✅ Place stops at **manipulation levels**.
✅ Adjust position size based on **trend vs. range classification**.
---
## Configuration Tips
### **Session Settings**
```pine
sessionTime = input.session("0830-1500", "Session Hours")
weekDays = input.string("23456", "Active Days")
```
- Match these to your **primary trading session**.
- Adjust for different **market opens** if needed.
### **Analysis Parameters**
```pine
lookbackPeriod = input.int(50, "Lookback Period")
low_threshold = input.float(0.25, "Trend/Range Threshold")
```
- **50 periods** is a good starting point but can be optimized per instrument.
- The **0.25 threshold** is ideal for most markets but may need adjustments.
---
## Market Structure Breakdown
### **Trend/Continuation Days**
- **Characteristics:**
✅ Small **opposing wicks** (minimal counter-pressure).
✅ Clean, **directional price movement**.
- **Bullish Trend Day Example:**
✅ Small **lower wicks** (minimal downward pressure).
✅ Strong **closes near the highs** → **Buyers in control**.
- **Bearish Trend Day Example:**
✅ Small **upper wicks** (minimal upward pressure).
✅ Strong **closes near the lows** → **Sellers in control**.
### **Reversal Days**
- **Characteristics:**
✅ **Large opposing wicks** → Failed momentum in the initial direction.
- **Bullish Reversal Example:**
✅ **Large upper wick early**.
✅ **Strong close from the lows** → **Sellers failed to maintain control**.
- **Bearish Reversal Example:**
✅ **Large lower wick early**.
✅ **Weak close from the highs** → **Buyers failed to maintain control**.
---
## Summary
This indicator systematically quantifies market structure by measuring **manipulation, distribution, and probability-driven trade setups**. Unlike traditional indicators, it adapts dynamically using **ATR, historical probabilities, and real-time tracking** to offer a structured, data-driven approach to trading.
🚀 **Use this tool to enhance your decision-making and gain an objective edge in the market!**
Daily Structure Cycles - Session - PDH/PDLDescription:
The Session Windows indicator visualizes predefined trading sessions on the chart, highlighting key price ranges with customizable background colors and labels. Designed to track session-specific high and low levels, this tool provides visual guidance for analyzing market behavior across different trading windows. It includes three customizable sessions—Asian, Window 1, and Window 2—that can be toggled on or off.
How It Works:
Each session is marked with a colored box, representing the high and low range for that session. Border colors and box transparency can be customized, allowing for easy visual differentiation.
The indicator also displays the high and low levels of the previous day, marked as PDH (Previous Day High) and PDL (Previous Day Low). When the current price crosses these levels, the line style changes, signaling potential support or resistance levels.
Labels for each session high and low are positioned based on the user-defined offset and alignment options, providing easy-to-read markers at the end of each session.
Usage: This indicator helps traders observe price behavior within distinct trading sessions and how the current price interacts with previous day’s highs and lows, which may offer insight into support/resistance zones. Traders can use this tool to spot breakout or reversal points as price moves through session highs/lows or crosses the previous day’s levels.
Customization Options:
Session Settings: Choose session times for Asian, Window 1, and Window 2.
Color Settings: Set different colors for session background and border lines.
Label Positioning: Adjust label offset and vertical position for high/low markers.
PDH/PDL Levels: Toggle lines for previous day’s high and low, with color and line style options.
Limitations: This indicator is designed for visualization purposes and is best used alongside other tools for confirmation, as it does not provide standalone buy or sell signals.
Average Session Range [QuantVue]The Average Session Range or ASR is a tool designed to find the average range of a user defined session over a user defined lookback period.
Not only is this indicator is useful for understanding volatility and price movement tendencies within sessions, but it also plots dynamic support and resistance levels based on the ASR.
The average session range is calculated over a specific period (default 14 sessions) by averaging the range (high - low) for each session.
Knowing what the ASR is allows the user to determine if current price action is normal or abnormal.
When a new session begins, potential support and resistance levels are calculated by breaking the ASR into quartiles which are then added and subtracted from the sessions opening price.
The indicator also shows an ASR label so traders can know what the ASR is in terms of dollars.
Session Time Configuration:
The indicator allows users to define the session time, with default timing set from 13:00 to 22:00.
ASR Calculation:
The ASR is calculated over a specified period (default 14 sessions) by averaging the range (high - low) of each session.
Various levels based on the ASR are computed: 0.25 ASR, 0.5 ASR, 0.75 ASR, 1 ASR, 1.25 ASR, 1.5 ASR, 1.75 ASR, and 2 ASR.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots lines on the chart representing different ASR levels.
Customize the visibility, color, width, and style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) of these lines for better visualization.
Labels for these lines can also be displayed, with customizable positions and text properties.
Give this indicator a BOOST and COMMENT your thoughts!
We hope you enjoy.
Cheers!

MJForex Breakout Detector X SessionsThis Pine Script code is a Breakout Detector with Trading Session highlights for use on a financial chart. Here's a detailed breakdown of its functionality:
1. Breakout Detection
The main purpose of this script is to detect breakouts based on specific price levels (like highs and lows) within a given lookback period. It identifies different types of breakouts in real time, specifically:
Higher High (HH): The highest price in the lookback period is exceeded, suggesting bullish momentum.
Higher Low (HL): A low that is higher than the previous low, which might indicate a potential upward trend continuation.
Lower High (LH): The price makes a lower high than the previous high, indicating a possible downward reversal.
Lower Low (LL): A low that is lower than the previous low, indicating bearish momentum.
Breakout Logic:
A buy signal is generated when there is a breakout above a Higher High or a Higher Low, signaling a potential bullish trend.
A sell signal is generated when there is a breakout below a Lower High or a Lower Low, signaling a potential bearish trend.
These signals are plotted on the chart using shapes (green triangles for buy signals and red triangles for sell signals).
2. Candle Body vs. Wick Consideration
The indicator allows you to choose whether the breakout is detected based on the candle body (the open and close prices) or the wick (the high and low prices).
This is controlled by a user input (use_body), so you can switch between these modes depending on your preference.
3. Trading Session Highlights
The script also visually highlights different trading sessions on the chart. Three sessions can be configured:
First Session (e.g., Asia/Tokyo)
Second Session (e.g., Europe/London)
Third Session (e.g., America/New York)
Each session is colored differently on the chart's background (blue, yellow, and green), helping you easily visualize which trading session is currently active.
4. Real-Time Alerts
The script generates real-time alerts when a breakout occurs.
Alerts are sent based on the current price action without waiting for the candle to close, which helps traders respond quickly to potential breakout signals and be aware of the particular zone or area.
Alerts:
A Buy alert is triggered when there's a Higher High (HH) or Higher Low (HL) breakout.
A Sell alert is triggered when there's a Lower High (LH) or Lower Low (LL) breakout.
These alerts can be used to notify traders when certain breakout conditions are met, allowing them to take action immediately.
5. Customizability
The script allows for several customizable inputs:
Lookback Period: The number of bars used to calculate the highest high and lowest low (default is 5).
Breakout Detection Toggle: You can choose whether to show the breakout signals on the chart.
Session Visibility: You can turn on/off the visual highlights for the trading sessions.
Body/Wick Toggle: You can select whether to consider the candle body or the wick when detecting breakouts.
In Summary:
Breakout Detection: Detects and highlights Higher High, Higher Low, Lower High, and Lower Low breakouts on the chart, generating buy/sell signals.
Candle Body/Wick Option: You can choose to detect breakouts based on the body or wick of the candle.
Real-Time Alerts: Sends alerts as soon as a breakout occurs, without waiting for the candle to close.
Trading Session Highlights: Highlights different global trading sessions for easy visual reference on the chart.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who want to identify key breakouts and visually track trading sessions across different markets.
MM Day Trader LevelsAs an intraday trader, there are certain key levels that I care about for short-term price action on every single chart. When I first began day trading, each morning I would painstakingly mark those key levels off on the charts I planned to trade each day. Depending on the number of charts I was watching, this would take up quite a bit of my time that I felt would have been much better spent doing other things. It also meant that those levels would often be left behind, and on later days I might be trading a symbol and get confused when a line appeared and I'd be paying attention to it only to later discover that it wasn't from prior day, but from some other day in the past when I had marked it off.
I looked all over TradingView to find indicators that did this automatically for me, and I found a lot of them. One by one I tried them, and inevitably I would always find that something was wrong with them. Often they didn't have all of the levels I wanted (so I would have to combine multiple indicators), but more often I found that the levels would be incorrect, or they would be buggy and not appear consistently, or they would not appear at the right time, or they would not work on futures! The list of problems went on and on. And the biggest issue I found was that nobody knew how to get session volume profile in an indicator.
So, over the course of a few years I figured out how to solve all of those problems and now I'm thrilled to present this free indicator for everyone like me who trades intraday and wants a clean consistent way to see the prior day levels that they care about automatically on every single chart (even futures). The levels the indicator provides are:
Yesterday High & Low
Value Area High & Low & Point of Control
Today's Open
Yesterday's Close (aka "Settlement" on futures)
Premarket High & Low (non-futures only)
Overnight High & Low (futures only)
These levels are extremely important, and I expect price to be reactive to them, so each level has a shaded background behind it so that the levels stand out against other lines you may have on your chart. I try to keep configuration as simple as possible, but there are configuration options that allow you to:
Hide any of the levels
Change the color for the levels
Shade the value area (or not)
Change the label text, size, type (basic label or plain text) and location (how far to the right of last candle to place the label
Adjust session volume profile value area volume & number of rows
The biggest advantage to this indicator over others on TradingView is how it handles session volume profile. When it comes to futures, TradingView does differentiate between regular trading hours and "electronic" trading hours on the charts, but their timeframes for those sessions are unusual, and they do not provide any programmatic way to differentiate between them. So, I created a whole new library for dealing with futures sessions that is fully integrated into both my Session Volume Profile library and this indicator, allowing me to bring you the best and only custom indicator available on TradingView that provides you with true regular session volume profile information across every type of symbol, including futures.
I'm incredibly proud of everything I've been able to provide with this indicator, and even more thrilled to say that I'm proud of how the indicator has been implemented. Once again releasing this indicator and all associated code for free and open source. I encourage you to take a look at the source code to see how it all works, take advantage of the free underlying libraries I created to make all of this possible: Session Library and Session Volume Profile Library.

ATR (Average True Range) By TimeWhat is ATR By Time?
This premium indicator was inspired by my RVOL By Time indicator . It works on Stocks, Forex, Crypto and most Futures markets. Instead of calculating the ATR by recent price data, it calculates an ATR value for each candle based on that candle’s time of day.
For example, if you set the Lookback setting on this indicator to 14, then instead of calculating the ATR based on the past 14 candles, it will calculate an ATR value based on the past 14 trading sessions for each candle.
This is extremely useful for day traders in particular as it allows you to gauge the average range of candles during certain times of day instead of only by the most recent price action.
It also draws a regular ATR (optional) – so this is essentially an enhanced ATR script that gives you multiple readings on price volatility.
If you are interested, you can purchase access to the script or register for a free trial on my website: ATR By Time Feature Page .
Why Does It Cost Money?
The reason why this is a premium script that requires payment to access is because it took a lot of time, research and development in order to create. The other advantage of charging for it is that it retains exclusivity to only a select few dedicated traders.
By paying the yearly fee you get access to ALL of my premium indicators including lifetime updates and technical support.
If you don’t want to pay for this script then I completely understand and I have plenty of other free indicators and scripts that you might be interested in!
Free Trial
I am a trader myself and so I know how skeptical you might be that this indicator is worth your time and money. That is why I am offering a free trial of this indicator.
All you need to do to initiate your trial is Join My Mailing List/ on my website: zenandtheartoftrading.com
How It Works
This script uses a complex formula to calculate ATR values across distant historical bars.
Depending on the timeframe you select it will skip through historical bars to find previous bars from the same time of day. It collects these values then applies the traditional ATR formula to them.
The ATR value is determined by the maximum result of the following three calculations:
- Current high minus the current low
- The absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
- The absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
- Whichever of these three calculations comes out highest, that is your ATR for the given candle.
Once this value is calculated for historical bars the ATR indicator’s reading is typically determined by a 14-period moving average of these individual ATR values. So the ATR reading you see on your screen is an average of the past 14 ATR values.
This means that as markets expand and contract this volatility reading will adapt to the change in candle price ranges.
The difference with the ATR By Time indicator’s calculation formula is that rather than referencing recent bars it references bars based on their time of day.
For example, if you are on the 1-Hour chart and you check the ATR By Time value at 9:00AM with a Lookback period of 14, then the value you see will be the result of the ATR calculation of every 9:00AM 1-Hour candle over the past 14 trading sessions.
You can also choose to enable the ATR moving average in the settings menu if you wish. This will give you a smoothed ATR reading by averaging the current session’s ATR value with previous sessions.
This versatility gives you a sophisticated reading on price volatility which is particularly helpful for day trade setups based around market opens or market closes when volatility tends to spike.
The regular ATR indicator will not account for this on the lower timeframes, but this indicator will!
