ICT Sessions (Kill Zones)Inspired by the work of ICT (Inner Circle Trader - @ICT_MHuddleston)
What are ICT KillZones:
All ICT students know that certain moments of the day are more indicated to search for good frameworks. These moments are indicated like "Kill Zones".
The best kill zones to search for profittable tradings are during the London session and during the New York session.
How This Indicator Can Help You:
With this indicator you'll see plotted in the charts the London Kill Zone and the New York Kill Zone, you'll see exactly when they start and finish, so you'll be able to understand better the price action and recognize if there are ICT framework to trade. You'll also will see when the New York lunch hour happen (this moment is not favorable for searching frameworks) and you'll see also 2 very important moments of the day, the 8.30 New York Time and the 9.30 New York Time, infact in these 2 particular moments it is most likely that some very profittable framework will appear as there are alway important economic news released in these 2 hours.
Also you'll see the New York Midnight Open, that always forms a very important level for the day trading, you could see the New York Midnight open as a real opening for markets.
Why This Indicator:
I looked for indicators working with these concepts and I could not find one that offered the kill zones sections in the way are showed in my indicator, also they just had the kill zones without showing the 8.30 and 9.30 hours and without the Ney York midnight opening, and these are very important time frames for who works with ICT concepts.
About The Indicator:
In this indicator you'll have displayed:
The regular trading sessions displayed, that is: Asian Session, London Session, New York Session.
The London Kill Zone
The New York Kill Zone
The New York Midnight Open
The New York Lunch Hour
The 8:30 News Release Hour
The 9:30 News Release Hour
All these level can be adjusted and changed as you prefer.

Price Range Retrace statisticks [HERMAN]📈 Price Range Retrace Stats
This indicator is designed to help traders quantify how often price retraces to a selected equilibrium level (e.g., 50%) after sweeping the high/low of a defined time-based range.
It is especially useful for modeling sessions such as the London Opening Range (e.g., 02:00–03:00 NY time), checking if price sweeps that range in a subsequent window (e.g., 03:00–04:00), and returns to its 50% level.
✅ What does it do?
Lets you define multiple time ranges (e.g. London, NY Open, custom ranges).
Draws the range box for the selected session time.
Calculates and plots the retracement level (default 50%).
Checks if price sweeps the high/low of the range before retracing.
Tracks success rate, average distance, sample size and displays these stats in a table.
⚙️ Key Features:
Fully customizable time windows (range box time and retracement check time).
-Configurable retracement % (default 50% equilibrium).
-Optional sweep condition (only count retracements if price sweeps the high/low first).
-Clean, theme-adaptive stats table with success rates and averages.
-Supports two independent levels (e.g. London and NY sessions).
📊 Why use it?
This tool turns session-based setups into statistical models:
Backtest session strategies over many days.
Quantify edge with % success over time.
Validate trading ideas with data.
Use probabilities instead of gut feeling.
Example insight you can track:
“Between 3–4 AM NY time, price swept the high/low of the 2–3 AM London Opening Range and returned to its 50% equilibrium level in 64% of 234 sessions.”
📌 Ideal for:
ICT concepts (Opening Range, Sweep, Equilibrium Return).
Algo developers wanting probabilities.
Anyone who wants data-driven confirmation for session range mean-reversion.
Instructions:
1️⃣ Enable the desired Price Range (1 or 2).
2️⃣ Set your Range Time (e.g. 02:00–03:00).
3️⃣ Set your Retracement Check Time (e.g. 03:00–04:00).
4️⃣ Choose retracement % (e.g. 50%).
5️⃣ Watch the box and retrace line plot on chart.
6️⃣ Review the success statistics in the table.
80% Rule Indicator (ETH Session + SVP Prior Session)I created this script to show the 80% opportunity on chart if setting lines up.
"80% rule: Open outside the vah or Val. Spend 30 mins outside there then break back inside spend 15 mins below or above depending which way u broke. Then come back and retest the vah/val and take it to the poc as a first target with the final target being the other Val/vah "
📌 Script Summary
The "80% Rule Indicator (ETH Session + SVP Prior Session)" overlays your chart with prior session value area levels (VAH, VAL, and POC) calculated from extended-hours 30-minute data. It tracks when the price reenters the value area and confirms 80% Rule setups during your chosen trading session. You can optionally trigger alerts, show/hide market sessions, and fine-tune line appearance for a clean, modular workflow.
⚙️ Options & Settings Breakdown
- Use 24-Hour Session (All Markets)
When checked, the indicator ignores time zones and tracks signals during a full 24-hour period (0000-0000), helpful if you're outside U.S. trading hours or want consistent behavior globally.
- Market Session
Dropdown to select one of three key market zones:
- New York (09:30–16:00 ET)
- London (08:00–16:30 local)
- Tokyo (09:00–15:00 local)
Used to gate entry signals during relevant hours unless you choose the 24-hour option.
- Show PD VAH/VAL/POC Lines
Toggle to show or hide prior day’s levels (based on the 30-min extended session). Turning this off removes both the lines and their white text labels.
- Extend Lines Right
When enabled, the VAH/VAL/POC lines extend into the current day’s session. If disabled, they appear only at their anchor point.
- Highlight Selected Session
Adds a soft blue background to help visualize the active session you selected.
- Enable Alert Conditions
Allows TradingView alerts to be created for long/short 80% Rule entries.
- Enable Audible Alerts
Plays an in-chart sound with a popup message (“80% Rule LONG” or “SHORT”) when signals trigger. Requires the chart to be active and sounds enabled in TradingView.
Prior sessions High/Low/MidThis indicator highlights the High, Low, and Midpoint of the most recently completed trading sessions. It helps traders visualize key price levels from the previous session that often act as support, resistance, or reaction zones.
It draws horizontal lines for the high and low of the last completed session, as well as the midpoint, which is calculated as the average of the high and low. These lines extend to the right side of the chart, remaining visible as reference levels throughout the day.
You can independently enable or disable the Tokyo, London, and New York sessions depending on your preferences. Each session has adjustable start and end times, as well as time zone settings, so you can align them accurately with your trading strategy.
This indicator is particularly useful for intraday and swing traders who use session-based levels to define market structure, bias, or areas of interest. Session highs and lows often align with institutional activity and can be key turning points in price action.
Please note that this script is designed to be used only on intraday timeframes such as 1-minute to 4-hour charts. It will not function on daily or higher timeframes.
Live SessionsLive sessions plots the highs and lows of the previous for sessions.
It also marks when these are broken by price.
Default Time Frames are:
London Session = "0000-0600", "UTC-4"
New York Session = "0830-1230", "UTC-4"
Asia Session = "1800-0000", "UTC-4"
New York Close Session = "1330-1630", "UTC-4"
Useful for highlighting when price has gone through a previous session high or low and quickly seeing where liquidity still lies.

Market Sessions Indicator by NomadTradesCustomisable Market session indicator
This indicator visually marks the high and low price levels for the Asia, London, and New York trading sessions directly on the chart, using distinct horizontal lines and color-coding for each session. Each session’s high and low are labelled for easy identification, allowing traders to quickly assess key support and resistance levels established during major global market hours. The indicator is designed for clear session demarcation, helping users identify price reactions at these significant levels and supporting multi-session analysis for intraday and swing trading strategies
RH_Previous Session CloseRaghee Horner Previous Session Close (PSC)
The RH_PSC is an automated Previous Session Close (PSC) indicator to show, at a glance, general market sentiment -- whether the market is generally bullish, bearish or neutral --for the current trading session.
The PSC plots the previous session close from the Daily candle, with a customizable table of data to show the previous price, whether or not the current price is above or below that previous close and the percentage move above or below.
It includes the ability to enable only the last session or to plot for all previous sessions continuously.
The data table is configurable for bearish, bullish or sideways coloring and can be moved to different locations to suite users preferences and charts. It can also be fully disabled.
Defaults are to show all previous sessions in a continuous plot and the data table is disabled.
What is “sentiment”?
Market sentiment reflects investors’ overall attitude toward a symbol, influenced by news, economic reports, and perceptions. It can be bullish, bearish, or neutral and significantly affects trading behavior and price movements. Bullish sentiment typically drives prices up, while bearish sentiment can cause them to fall. Understanding market sentiment is key for trend follow-through.
Why does it matter?
Effectively using sentiment allows for quicker, smarter trading decisions. As an active trader, understanding market sentiment is vital for follow-through. It shows real-time investor feelings, affecting price movements. Gauging sentiment helps you:
Anticipate Breakouts.
Time Entries and Exits.
Increase Probability of Continuation.
OmniSessions [WinWorld]The indicator shows the range of 4 most popular sessions (New York, Tokyo, London, Sydney). Sessions are used to identify zones with maximum volatility, as well as to find entry points. Session boundaries can act as POI no worse than OrderBlock.
In addition to sessions, you can use settings with KillZones - a range within a session that has potentially high volatility.
Silver Bullet is a more advanced range that allows you to identify the potential for maximum volatility. Excellent entry points can be obtained on the sweep of the range or from the nearest orderblock. We will explain it a bit deeply below.
Why use sessions?
During specific sessions big financial instutions from specific parts of the world enter the market, and this fact alone let us find the most "liquid" sessions in order to catch the best price movements. If talking about orderblocks, it is just a point of interest (more precisely, it is actually a zone of interest), which usually is a zone where the signficant amount of limit orders lies, and when price enter such zone, it immediately shows a strong reaction with either breakout from this zone or it bounces against this zone.
How is this indicator different from others?
There a lot of orderblocks indicator out here publicly available, but huge portion of them doesn't take into calculation important smart money concepts, such as valid pullbacks, for example. Valid pullbacks is a concept of price movement, which lets us indentify quite precisely price's impulses. Based on this impulses, we search our orderblocks. This approach allows to catch the most relevant and highly liquid orderblocks, which present traders with best trade entry opportunities, because usually, when entering with these orderblocks, you follow the moves of big money players, and that gives trader an edge in trading. None of open-source indicators uses such approach ( we've studied all of them ). Also an important notice: no public code is utilized in this indicato whatsoever. We've build our own flexible session mechanism, which allows you to quickly change between different type of sessions and also choose which session to use. And the big thing is our own alorithm to deal with asset, trading sessions of which are quite exotic (such as DAX and MEOX indexes, which close and open at different times of the day, which makes it hard for indicator to catch by default), so with indicator you can enjoy trading by sessions with no "bugs".
And the most user-desired and important thing: we've implemented feature to set winter and summer seasons for sessions, and this solves life-long struggle of traders to set correct trading session time, when forex exchanges switch trading hours, so now you don't need to info which our summer or winter is traded by, but just switch between seasons by one button in our indicator. And we can proudly state, no sesions indicator in the TradingView has such feature , so feel free to use it now on our indicator.
How orderblocks are built?
When London, New York or Asia ends, we find the closest orderblocks above and below closed session's high and low respectively. We do it by finding so called valid pullbacks ( was explained above ), then searching for valid fair value gap (FVG), that is inside of some valid pullbacks, and if we find it, then the orderblock is established and you will live orderblock and fair value gap (FVG) box ( both are colored in closed session's colour ).
How are orderblocks and FVG displayed on the chart?
Live orderblock and FVG are displayed as boxes on the chart, that are plolonged each bar if price didn't reach the orderblock.
Some important details:
When price touches FVG, FVG then is modified to reflect how much of untouched FVG is left. You will see it as decreasing of FVG box size in live mode. If price fully takes over FVG, FVG deletes;
When price touches orderblock, orderblock stops being prolonged and stays on the chart and is considered as worked-out.
These featues allow you to fully see live orderblocks and FVGs (if they exist) and already worked-out orderblocks to see how useful they were in the history.
Is that it?
No, because our indicator also shows sessions sweeps, which is historically a good indication that price grabbed the liquidity of previously closed sessions and now has enough "power" to do big movements, which is a good thing for traders, because it allows them to catch big movements and profit big.
Ok, we've covered the basics, now let's talk about what exactly this indicator can do.
OmnISessions is all-in-one sessions' indicator, that cointain:
Sessions (Automatic adaptation to your time zone)
Kill Zones
Silver Bullets
Session Sweeps
Order Blocks (Session, Killzone, SilverBullet)
Easily switch between summer and winter seasons
Now you don't need to look for opening and closing times of stock exchanges: the algorithm itself adjusts the session times according to your timezone. Just change the seasonality: winter/summer and the session times will be clearly displayed on your chart.
A quick view of the settings:
Show: Sessions, KillZones or SilverBullet
Season selection: Winter/Summer
Session Color Selection
Visuals:
Show/Hide session name - displays session name (ex.: London, New York, Silver Bullet and etc.) on the chart;
Show/Hide session box - displays session range as box with coloured background on the chart;
Show/Hide High/Low sessions - displays two horizontal lines for higher and lower borders of the session;
Show/Hide OrderBlocks - displays worked-out orderblocks in the history with live orderblocks and their fair value gaps (FVGs);
Show/Hide live Session High/Low - displays higher and lower border of the session as lines, that are prolonged each bar even after the session ends;
Show/Hide Session Sweeps - displays session sweeps of higher and lower border as dotted line;
Dividers (alternative session display):
Horizontal Divider
Backgrounder coloring
Customization: choose the display type: Sessions, Killzones or Silver Bullet.
The indicator displays orders that are above or below the previous session boundaries.
Below are Killzones with Order Blocks:
And this is Silver Bullet with Order Blocks:
Overall, you can clearly see that orderblocks, sessions sweeps and different type of sessions in one indicator allow you to fully utilize your time and mental energy, because finding orderblocks with valid pullbacks by hand is quite time-costly task, but finding them on different type of sessions, while not knowing trading hours of current trading session, is the true hell of work. OmniSessions indicator performs all of these calculations by itself, so you can focus on finding the best entries, while checking the situation on different sessions at the same time.
We hope that you will find great use of OmniSessions!
LIT - TimingIntroduction
This Script displays the Asia Session Range, the London Open Inducement Window, the NY Open Inducement Window, the Previous Week's high and low, the Previous Day's highs and lows, and the Day Open price in the cleanest way possible.
Description
The Indicator is based on UTC -7 timing but displays the Session Boxes automatically correct at your chart so you do not have to adjust any timings based on your Time Zone and don't have to do any calculations based on your UTC. It is already perfect.
You will see on default settings the purple Asia Box and 2 grey boxes, the first one is for the London Open Inducement Window (1 hour) and the second grey box is for the NY Open Inducement Window (also 1 hour)
Asia Range comes with default settings with the Asia Range high, low, and midline, you can remove these 3 lines in the settings "style" and untick the "Lines" box, that way you only will have the boxes displayed.
Special Feature
Most Timing-based Indicators have "bugged" boxes or don't show clean boxes at all and don't adjust at daylight savings times, we made sure that everything automatically gets adjusted so you don't have to! So the timings will always display at the correct time regarding the daylight savings times.
Combining Timing with Liquidity Zones the right way and in a clear, clean, and simple format.
Different than others this script also shows the "true" Asia range as it respects the "day open gap" which affects the Asia range in other scripts and it also covers the full 8 hours of Asia Session.
Additions
You can add in the settings menu the last week's high and low, the previous day's high and low, and also the day's open price by ticking the boxes in the settings menu
All colors of the boxes are fully adjustable and customizable for your personal preferences. Same for the previous weeks and day highs and lows. Just go to "Style" and you can adjust the Line types or colors to your preferred choice.
Recommended Use
The most beautiful display is on the M5 Timeframe as you have a clear overview of all sessions without losing the intraday view. You can also use it on the M1 for more details or the M15 for the bigger picture. The Template can hide on higher time frames starting from the H1 to not flood your chart with boxes.
How to use the Asia Session Range Box
Use the Asia Range Box as your intraday Guide, keep in mind that a Breakout of Asia high or low induces Liquidity and a common price behavior is a reversal after the fake breakout of that range.
How to use the London Open and NY Open Inducement Windows
Both grey boxes highlight the Open of either London Open or NY Open and you should keep an eye out for potential Liquditiy Graps or Mitigations during that times as this is when they introduce major Liquidity for the regarding Session.
How to use the Asia high, low and midline and day open price
After Asia Range got taken out in one direction, often price comes back to those levels to mitigate or bounce off, so you can imagine those zones as support and resistance on some occasions, recommended in combination with Imbalances.
How to use the previous day and week's highs and lows
Once added in the settings, you can display those price levels, you can use them either as Liquidity Targets or as Inducement Levels once they are taken out.
Enjoy!
All in one CR- gRiZzLyRoCKsThis script is exclusively for users in Central America Costa Rica and Nicaragua as it does not take any input parameters for the session timing (hours) more than the price explained later here.
Features:
1. It paints Tradingview´s background to start differenciating between London session candle sticks and New York session candle sticks, only those two session.
2. Also it paints Tradingview´s background chart to differenciate weekends to make vissually attrative when a new trading week is starting.
3. It also prints a line that will differenciate when London Open candle stick has been printed on chart as well for New York open and the New York Stock Exchange market open.
Also the script will be printing labels for each day of the week, and here you need to make sure to enter the right input, the only input require. It is a price level so the script knows the coordinates to display week days labels, to avoid displaying on the candle sticks, so write as input a price number that is above the candle sticks by far at least 30 pips away.
The script its customizable, so please feel free to customize the colors at your own taste.
You can always hide some of the scripts markups on the chart, by clicking its configuration and checking/unchecking each element, e.g London Open, NYSE Open lines as example, or the labels with the week days names.
Important to know:
For Costa Rica and Nicaragua users, please make sure you have UTC-6 time zone selected for your tradingview's session, hopefully it will work as well for Panama users, but I did not tested.
Any question or bug report, please communicate with gRiZzLyRoCKs via tradingview´s chat.
For Central America users, I will be updating the script for each time zone change affecting London or New York sessions time schedule, depending if it is winter or summer.
PST:
Another feature-similar script will be released soon with time input capabilities for the remaining people around each country.

OHLC, Sessions & Key Levels [Orderflowing]Multi-Timeframe (+) OHLC, Sessions & Key Levels | Custom-Timeframe OHLC | Sessions Analysis | Market Key Levels
Built using Pine Script V5.
Introduction
The OHLC, Sessions & Key Levels Indicator is a tool designed for traders who want to integrate Multi-Timeframe (MTF) OHLC Data, Sessions Analysis, and Key Market Levels into their trading system.
This Indicator can help traders by automatically marking the OHLC, Sessions & Key Levels directly on the price chart, saving time furthermore potentially allowing for better judgement in their trading and risk management process.
Innovation and Inspiration
The Indicator draws from multiple concepts;
The OHLC levels across different timeframes, session-based analysis, and plotting potentially important and pivotal market levels.
Concept Inspiration from ICT-Traders / Market Maker Model Traders.
Use of Open-Source Code
Specific parts of this Indicator's code have been inspired by & further developed from publicly available code originally developed for the MetaTrader platform.
All such integrations have been wired to work within the TradingView environment, specifically using Pine Script Version 5.
Elements have been made to benefit the overall functionality, the code logic, to make sure it offers unique value to TradingView's users.
Core Features
OHLC MTF Analysis
Foundation
This component allows traders to track the Open, High, Low, and Close levels across different timeframes, ranging from intraday periods to yearly data.
Customization
Traders can adjust the bar offset, width, and colors of the OHLC bars, as well as display options. Option to highlight the Open/Close with labels and the High/Low with marks.
Application
The OHLC MTF component gives traders a clear view of important price levels, which can serve as support, resistance, or potential entry/exit points.
Main Trading Sessions & Custom Sessions
Starting Point
The Sessions component relies on the user-inputted key market sessions, defaults include New York, London, Asia, and optionally Sydney. Session Defaults to UTC.
Please Note: Adjust Time Zone in TradingView's Desktop App or Web Interface to use the sessions in correct local time.
Customization
Traders can adjust session names, session times, time zone, visibility, session colors, and session-specific high and low markers.
This allows us to visualize price movements during these selected periods.
Application
By highlighting different trading sessions, traders can potentially better time their trades, understanding when significant price movements usually occur. This can potentially be used to try and find patterns in a time-based method.
Key Levels
Customization
Traders can choose which key levels to display and adjust the visual style of these levels, including line width, style, and color.
Application
The Key Levels feature can help traders identify support and resistance levels that can serve as potential entry or exit points. Can be useful in market structure analysis by marking significant price levels based on different timeframes.
Designed for multi-timeframe analysis, allowing traders to track OHLC levels, session ranges, and key market levels.
It’s highly customizable, making it suitable across trading styles and charting setups, whether scalping, day trading, swing trading or longer term investing.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) OHLC
Can be plotted as a Candlestick or Bar-Chart or Both
These can help traders keep an eye on price levels across multiple timeframes while allowing the actual chart to be on another timeframe than the displayed OHLC.
Example - OHLC on the Weekly Candle/Bar - Chart 4 Hourly Candles
While being on lower timeframes, the trader can keep an eye on how the OHLC candle is developing. ICT-Traders find the Daily (Default Setting) OHLC useful in analysis.
It can be customized to any timeframe the trader wishes to use.
Inspired by ICT-Traders / Market Maker Model Traders and Top-Down Analysis Style.
Combined with Session Analysis to view into the price behavior during specific trading sessions, could potentially be very useful for finding trading setups.
OHLC Levels
Creates lines based on user input - Can potentially be important reference points for trade setups / invalidation / confirmation, levels could be used as the HTF Origin.
Conclusion
The OHLC MTF, Sessions & Key Levels Indicator is a tool that combines multiple market analysis concepts into a single unique script. It offers another view of the market's behavior by combining OHLC data from a different timeframe, main trading sessions, and key levels.

Simple Sessions & LevelsWhat this indicator does:
This script marks out two essential types of price levels for intraday and swing traders:
The high and low of a customizable 15-minute opening range after the market/session open.
The previous day’s high, midpoint (“halfback”), and low.
How it works:
The script lets you set the session start time (hour and minute) to match your market.
It then calculates the high and low of the first 15 minutes after the session opens and plots those as solid lines.
It also plots the prior day’s high, halfback (midpoint), and low on your chart for easy reference.
Each line and each label can be toggled on or off independently in the settings for maximum customization.
Colors for each level are also fully customizable.
How to use it:
Add the script to your chart.
Set the session start hour and minute to match the open of the market or instrument you trade.
Choose which levels and labels you want displayed by using the toggles in the settings.
The indicator will automatically draw the session range and prior day levels for you.
Use these lines as reference for key support, resistance, and potential trade entry/exit points.
What makes it unique and useful:
This tool combines a flexible session opening range with classic daily reference levels in one package. You have complete control over which levels and labels are shown, making it adaptable for any trading style. It’s especially useful for day traders who want to quickly identify volatility windows and the most important price levels from the previous session.

London Session (Blue Dot) → Strong volatility, breakout opportunities

Above Daily Open → Bearish Bias
Below Daily Open → Bullish Bias
The Weekly Open (Red Line) sets the higher timeframe directional bias.

Useful for setting stop-losses, breakout trades, and risk management.
💡 Why This Indicator is Important for Beginners
1️⃣ Avoids Overtrading:
Many beginners trade in low-volume periods (NY Lunch, Asia session) and get stuck in choppy price action.
This indicator highlights when volatility is high so traders focus on better opportunities.
2️⃣ Session-Based Liquidity Traps:
Market makers often run stops at session highs/lows before reversing.
Watching session breaks prevents traders from falling into liquidity grabs.
3️⃣ Reduces Emotional Trading:
If price is above the Daily Open, a beginner shouldn’t look for shorts.
If price is below a key session low, it may signal a fake breakout.
4️⃣ Aligns with Institutional Trading:
Smart money traders use session highs/lows to set stop hunts & reversals.
Beginners can use this indicator to spot these zones before entering trades.
🛡️ How to Mitigate Risk with This Indicator
✅ Wait for Confirmations – Don’t trade blindly at session highs/lows. Look for wicks, rejections, or break/retests.
✅ Use Stop-Loss Above/Below Session Levels – If you’re going long, set SL below a session low. If short, set SL above a session high.
✅ Watch Volume & News Events – Breakouts without strong volume or news may be fake moves.
✅ Combine with Other Strategies – Use price action, trendlines, or EMAs with this indicator for higher probability trades.
✅ Use the Weekly Open for Trend Bias – If price stays below the Weekly Open, avoid bullish setups unless key support holds.
🎯 Who is This Indicator For?

GG - LevelsThe GG Levels indicator is a tool designed for day trading U.S. equity futures. It highlights key levels intraday, overnight, intermediate-swing levels that are relevant for intraday futures trading.
Terminology
RTH (Regular Trading Hours): Represents the New York session from 09:30 to 17:00 EST.
ON Session (Overnight Session): Represents the trading activity from 17:00 to 09:29 EST.
IB (Initial Balance): The first hour of the New York session, from 09:30 to 10:30 EST.
Open: The opening price of the RTH session.
YH (Yesterday's High): The highest price during the RTH session of the previous day.
YL (Yesterday's Low): The lowest price during the RTH session of the previous day.
YC (Yesterday's Close): The daily bar close which for futures gets updated to settlement.
IBH (Initial Balance High): The highest price during the IB session.
IBL (Initial Balance Low): The lowest price during the IB session.
ONH (Overnight High): The highest price during the ON session.
ONL (Overnight Low): The lowest price during the ON session.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): The volume-weighted average price that resets each day.
Why is RTH Important?
Tracking the RTH session is important because often times the overnight session can be filled with "lies". It is thought that because the overnight session is lower volume price can be pushed or "manipulated" to extremes that would not happen during higher volume times.
Why is the ON Session Important Then?
Just because the ON session can be thought as a "lie" doesn't mean it is relevant to know. For example, if price is stuck inside the ON range then you can think of the market as rotational or range-bound. If price is above the ON range then it can be thought of as bullish. If price is below the ON range then it can be thought as bearish.
What is IB?
IB or initial balance is the first hour of the New York Session. Typically the market sets the tone for the day in the first hour. This tone is similarly a map like the ON session. If we are above the IBH then it is bullish and likely a trend day to the upside. If we are below the IBL then it is bearish and likely a trend day to the downside. If we are in IB then we want to avoid conducting business in the middle of IBH and IBL to avoid getting chopped up in a range bound market.
These levels are not a holy grail
You should use this indicator as guide or map for context about the instrument you are trading. You need to combine your own technical analysis with this indicator. You want as much context confirming your trade thesis in order to enter a trade. Simply buying or selling because we are above or below a level is not recommended in any circumstance. If it were that easy I would not publish this indicator.
Adjustments
In the indicator settings you can adjust the RTH, ON, and IB session-time settings. All of the times entered must be in EST (Eastern Standard Time). You may want to do this to apply the levels to a foreign market.
