Session RangesThis is session range indicator with CLEAN code and CLEAR data presentation. There are other range indicators available but when I looked I found them unreliable or making too much screen clutter. WIth mine you can have 3 ranges on screen, measure to bodies or wickes, customise the period, (set your timezone), colours, labels and all that good stuff...
I'm very happy to share it with everyone (and publishing is a great way to archive my code) but ultimately this indicator is by me, for me. Whilst i added a few bells and whistles for everyone this indicator is precisely designed to:
Show me EASILY see what happened in the Asia session and whether we are breaking out with MINIMAL screen clutter. I only use the 3, 15 and 60 - it won't work on the 1, 5, 120 etc because I dont need it to. How I use it is below.
Session Highs and Lows - TWThis indicator plots the following:
- Previous day's high and low (based on previous daily candle) - purple
- Asia high and low (1800-0200) - red
- London high and low (0300-0930) - blue
Once a high or low is hit or passed during the NY session, the line reduces in thickness to show that this point of interest has been taken. The thinner lines remain on the chart as a reference so it's easy to discern POIs that are still in play vs. those that have been taken.
Session Highs and LowsThis indicator plots the following:
- Previous day high and low (based on previous daily candle) - purple lines
- Asian high and low (1800-0200) - red lines
- London high and low (0300-0930) - blue lines
During NY session, once one of these point of interest has been hit or passed, the line thickness reduces so you can tell at a glance which points have been taken, but they still remain on the chart for reference.

Trading Sessions with Highs and LowsTrading Sessions with Highs and Lows is designed to visually highlight specific trading sessions on the chart, providing traders with key insights into market behavior during these time periods. Here’s a detailed explanation of how the indicator works:
Key Features
1. Session Boxes:
• The indicator plots colored boxes on the chart to represent the price range of defined trading sessions.
• Each box spans the session’s start and end times and encapsulates the high and low prices during that period.
• Two trading sessions are defined by default:
• USA Trading Session: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• UK Trading Session: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
2. Session Labels:
• The name of the session (e.g., “USA” or “UK”) is displayed above the session box for clear identification.
3. High and Low Markers:
• Markers are added to the chart at the session’s high and low points:
• High Marker: A green label indicating the session high.
• Low Marker: A red label indicating the session low.
4. Dynamic Reset:
• After the session ends, the session high and low values are reset to na to prepare for the next trading day.
5. Customizable Background Colors:
• Each session’s box has a distinct, semi-transparent background color for better visual separation.
How It Works
1. Core Functionality:
• A function, plot_box, takes the session name, start time, end time, and background color as input.
• It calculates whether the current time is within the session.
• During the session:
• It tracks the session’s highest and lowest prices.
• It identifies the bars where the high and low occurred.
• At the session’s end:
• It plots a box on the chart covering the session’s time and price range.
• Labels are created for the session name and its high/low points.
2. Session Timing:
• Timestamps for the USA and UK trading sessions are calculated using the timestamp function with respective time zones.
3. Visual Elements:
• The box.new function draws the session boxes on the chart.
• The label.new function creates session name and high/low labels.
Usage
• Overlay Mode: The indicator is applied directly on the price chart (overlay=true), making it easy to visualize session-specific price behavior.
• Trading Strategy:
• Identify session-specific support and resistance levels.
• Observe price action trends during key trading periods.
• Align trading decisions with session dynamics.
Customization
While the indicator is preset for the USA and UK trading sessions, it can be easily modified:
1. Add/Remove Sessions: Define additional sessions by providing their start and end times.
2. Change Colors: Update the background_color in the plot_box calls to use different colors for sessions.
3. Adjust Time Zones: Replace the current time zones with others relevant to your trading style.
Visualization Example
• USA Session:
• Time: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent orange.
• UK Session:
• Time: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent green.
Why Use This Indicator?
1. Market Awareness: Easily spot price behavior during high-liquidity trading periods.
2. Trend Analysis: Analyze how sessions overlap or affect each other.
3. Session Boundaries: Use session high/low levels as dynamic support and resistance zones.
This indicator is an essential tool for intraday and swing traders who want to align their strategies with key market timings.
[AlbaTherium] Sessional & Daily's liquidities - Beta Sessional & Daily Liquidities - Beta: Harnessing the Power of the Institutional Funding Candle (IFC) in Trading
Introduction:
The Sessional & Daily Liquidities - Beta indicator places the Institutional Funding Candle (IFC) at its core. Within the realm of trading, the IFC stands as a key signal for identifying Points of Interest (POIs) , offering traders invaluable insights into market dynamics. This document aims to illuminate the central role of the IFC within the Sessional & Daily Liquidities - Beta indicator, explaining how it can be effectively utilized to spot significant changes in the market and seize trading opportunities.
Chapter 1: Sessional Liquidity concepts
The forex market can be broken up into four major trading sessions: the Sydney session, the Tokyo session, the London session, and Trump’s favorite time to tweet (before he was banned), the New York session.
Historically, the forex market has three peak trading sessions. Traders often focus on one of the three trading periods, rather than attempt to trade the markets 24 hours per day. This is known as the “forex 3-session system“. These sessions consist of the Asian, European, and North American sessions, which are also called Tokyo, London, and New York sessions.
For that reason, a lot of trader put their stoploss right at the High or Low of their session, filling these price levels with liquidities. The market loves liquidities, they are like the “fuel” of the market. Price usually goes to these levels, takes out all the liquidities, and then returns to its original direction. This price behaviour indicates the presence of players – banks, institutions,... – driving the market to their own profit.
The same logic applies with Daily, Weekly and Monthly high/low levels.
Chapter 2: Deciphering the Institutional Funding Candle
2.1 Unveiling the Essence of the Institutional Funding Candle (IFC)
- IFC concept is the core of this indicator. It is recommended to use this indicator on high timeframes, like 1H or 4H charts, as those are the timeframes which big players look at.
- The presence of IFC candles means a significant amount of stop loss is triggered, and price have a tendency to reverse.
2.2 Criteria for IFC Identification
The definition of specific conditions that characterize an IFC within the Sessional & Daily Liquidities - Beta indicator:
- A breach of Previous day, Previous week, or Previous month’s High or Low levels or a breach of major Session Highs or Lows.
- Price made an immediate reverse, creating a decent distance from the wicks.
Chapter 2: Trading Strategies with the IFC
User should treat these signals with cautions, and only take trades with multi confluences.
This pictures below demonstrate a strategy to trade with this indicator, taking 1H HTF trend and 5m LTF ChoCh and Single Candle Order Block as confluences.
Conclusion:
The Sessional & Daily Liquidities - Beta indicator, centered around the Institutional Funding Candle (IFC), stands as a potent tool for traders, offering them the means to spot critical inflection points in the market. By understanding the role of the IFC in violating significant swing highs or lows and major session highs or lows, traders can make informed decisions and seize opportunities within the ever-evolving realm of financial markets. It's crucial to note that while IFC candle colors can provide insights, they do not unilaterally dictate market direction. Furthermore, candle closure can be a valuable consideration in specific situations, particularly when evaluating other High Time Frame POIs.
The real-world examples presented in this document within the Sessional & Daily Liquidities - Beta indicator offer a tangible insight into the world of IFC trading. Harness the potential of the Institutional Funding Candle within the Sessional & Daily Liquidities - Beta indicator to elevate your trading strategies and make well-informed decisions in the dynamic landscape of financial markets.

Dual Session ORB S/R Lines Pro by Yendor_BShort description:
Clean opening-range breakout support/resistance lines for London and US sessions with confirmed breakout labels and alert-ready signals. UTC-based, adjustable start point, customizable styling, minimal clutter.
Detailed description:
What it does:
Captures the Opening Range (default first 15 minutes) for London and New York (US) sessions in UTC, plots the high and low as support/resistance lines, and marks confirmed breakouts when price closes beyond those levels. Lines can begin at either the range end or session start and persist for the configured session length.
Key Features:
ORB defined over the first N minutes after session open (configurable, default 15).
Two sessions: London and US (New York) with separate start times.
High/low support & resistance lines per session:
Selectable start point: Range End or Session Start.
Independently customizable color, width, and style (solid/dashed/dotted) for each high and low.
Confirmed breakout labels: only on the first candle that closes beyond the ORB high or low after the range completes (prior close must be inside).
Alerts and alertconditions for breakout long/short per session, usable in TradingView’s alert dialog.
Fully UTC-based. Works on any timeframe; 1-minute or 5-minute recommended for precision.
Minimal visual clutter; no persistent shaded boxes in this version.
Inputs explained:
ORB Duration (minutes): Length of the opening range used to calculate session high and low.
Session Length (hours): How long the S/R lines remain active (typically full session).
London / US Start (UTC): Session open times in UTC.
Line Start Point: Choose whether the lines begin at the range end or at the session start.
High/Low Styling: Independent color, thickness, and style for each session’s high and low.
Breakout Labels: Toggle one-time confirmed breakout annotations.
Alerts: Enable breakout alert messages.
Example workflows:
Monitor the first 15 minutes of the London session.
After the range, wait for a candle to close beyond the high or low for a confirmed breakout.
Use the label or alert to trigger entry logic (retest, continuation, etc.).
Repeat for the US session; compare overlaps for higher conviction.
Alert setup:
Open the Alerts panel. Choose one of the built-in alertconditions: London Breakout Long, London Breakout Short, US Breakout Long, US Breakout Short. Set frequency to Once Per Bar Close. Customize notification/webhook payload if automating.
Preset suggestions:
Standard London ORB: 15 minute range, lines from range end, green high / lime low.
Standard US ORB: 15 minute range, lines from range end, blue high / aqua low.
Overlap Bias: Both sessions active, lines start from session start, differentiated styles.
Tips & best practices:
Combine with external volume or volatility filters to reduce false breakouts. Use on correlated pairs to observe consistent session structure. Treat broken ORB levels as flipped support/resistance on revisit. Prefer confirmed closes beyond lines rather than wick touches.
Limitations / disclaimer:
Provides structural visualization and breakout signaling; does not guarantee profitability. Always apply proper risk management and confirm with additional context. Backtest settings before live use.

Volume & Price Analysis Across SessionsVolume & Price Analysis Across Sessions:
This advanced volume profile-based indicator provides a detailed visualization of market activity by analyzing volume distribution and price behavior across user-defined trading sessions. It dynamically calculates and displays the price level with the highest traded volume —for each user defined session, along with historical POCs, offering valuable insights into price acceptance zones and market sentiment over time.
Benefits:
Volume-Weighted Price Insights: Go beyond simple price action by integrating volume data to identify key levels where market participants are most active.
Multi-Session Context: Analyze volume concentration across multiple sessions to better anticipate support/resistance and potential reversal zones.
Visual Clarity: Intuitive color gradients and line widths make interpreting complex volume data straightforward.
Customizable to Fit Any Trading Style: Adjustable session length and sensitivity make it suitable for day trading, swing trading, or longer-term analysis.
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to integrate volume profile concepts directly on price charts with session-specific granularity, enabling deeper understanding of market structure and more informed trading decisions.
How It Works:
The indicator segments price and volume data into discrete sessions based on the selected timeframe.
Within each session, it bins volumes by price levels and identifies the POC — the price with the highest aggregated volume.
It draws the current session’s POC line on the chart, adjusting its thickness dynamically relative to volume strength using a z-score-based calculation.
Upon session completion, the POC line for that session is preserved on the chart in a gradient color reflecting relative volume magnitude compared to previous sessions.
Users can optionally enable deviation lines to observe volatility or price spread within each session.
The script efficiently manages historical POC lines, deleting the oldest when exceeding the maximum configured number to keep the chart clean.
Key Features:
Session-Based Volume Profile: Defines custom sessions based on a selectable timeframe (default 4 hours) and calculates volume bins within each session to identify where the most trading activity occurred.
Dynamic POC Line: Highlights the current session’s POC with a line whose width adapts based on volume intensity, controlled by a user-adjustable volume sensitivity parameter.
Historical POCs with Volume Gradient: Displays up to 30 previous session POC lines colored with a gradient ranging from low-volume (semi-transparent red) to high-volume (solid green), enabling quick visual identification of significant volume levels over time.
Standard Deviation Lines (Optional): Optionally plots ±1 standard deviation lines around the POC to visualize price dispersion within sessions.
Configurable Parameters: Allows full customization of appearance and sensitivity including POC line colors, maximum line widths, session timeframe, and the maximum number of price bins for volume aggregation.
Default Parameters Used:
Session Timeframe: 240 minutes (4-hour sessions)
