VWAP Balance Zones - SessionsVWAP Balance Zones Sessions Version is an alternate take on the Original VWAP Balance Zones indicator. The Sessions version allows users to select a specific session to view the VWAP Balance Zones at while still utilizing the full ETH Data.
The Session version provides a better focused display while still maintaining the core functions of the original script with mindful optimizations.
Author's Note: "VBZ Sessions was made with logistics in mind, for the users who only trade within certain times of the day. While it displays the same core concepts, it is not as "Raw" of a display as the Original. For this reason, some users may prefer the Original VWAP Balance Zones, which is why I have opted to release this alternate version instead of updating the original."
> What are VWAP Balance Zones?
"VWAP Balance Zones" is an original concept aimed at identifying the equilibrium area between market participants within the current trend by averaging the Daily Extremes and the Daily VWAP.
Refer to the illustration below for a better understanding of exactly how VWAP Balance Zones are formed:
These zones are displayed for the Daily, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs, with the most interactive timeframe being the Daily.
> Features
1. The Session Version uses ETH data at all times, and does not solely rely on the chart's data to create the VWAPs or Zones.
This allows the user to focus on a specific trading session, while not losing out on the full VBZ Calculation, with the notable benefit of a cleaner display.
The Original VBZ starts drawing at the beginning of the chart's "Day", and would produce different results when using an RTH chart vs an ETH chart. Along with creating a bird's nest of unusable data at the beginning of the day.
2. Session Start and End lines are displayed for easier identification of the designated trading session.
3. The extreme "Close" Lines are no longer displayed to reduce noise and redundancy.
4. Additionally, the interior VWAP lines are no longer displayed. Ultimately, this was to reduce noise and focus the script on the 50% zones.
5. Weekly and Monthly Zones are now displayed due to the reduced noise!
6. As with the original, the weekly display will yield to the daily, and the monthly display will yield to the weekly.
In the screenshot below, you can observe this behavior.

Macros ICT KillZones [TradingFinder] Times & Price Trading Setup🔵 Introduction
ICT Macros, developed by Michael Huddleston, also known as ICT (Inner Circle Trader), is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders identify the best trading opportunities during key time intervals like the London and New York trading sessions.
For traders aiming to capitalize on market volatility, liquidity shifts, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG), understanding and using these critical time zones can significantly improve trading outcomes.
In today’s highly competitive financial markets, identifying the moments when the market is seeking buy-side or sell-side liquidity, or filling price imbalances, is essential for maximizing profitability.
The ICT Macros indicator is built on the renowned ICT time and price theory, which enables traders to track and leverage key market dynamics such as breaks of highs and lows, imbalances, and liquidity hunts.
This indicator automatically detects crucial market times and optimizes strategies for traders by highlighting the specific moments when price movements are most likely to occur. A standout feature of ICT Macros is its automatic adjustment for Daylight Saving Time (DST), ensuring that traders remain synced with the correct session times.
This means you can rely on accurate market timing without the need for manual updates, allowing you to focus on capturing profitable trades during critical timeframes.
🔵 How to Use
The ICT Macros indicator helps you capitalize on trading opportunities during key market moments, particularly when the market is breaking highs or lows, filling Fair Value Gaps (FVG), or addressing imbalances. This indicator is particularly beneficial for traders who seek to identify liquidity, market volatility, and price imbalances.

These time intervals adjust automatically based on Daylight Saving Time (DST), helping traders to enter or exit trades during key market moments when price volatility is high.
Below are the main applications of this tool and how to incorporate it into your trading strategies :
🟣 Combining ICT Macros with Trading Strategies
The ICT Macros indicator can easily be used in conjunction with various trading strategies. Two well-known strategies that can be combined with this indicator include:
ICT 2022 Trading Model : This model is designed based on identifying market liquidity, structural price changes, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). By using ICT Macros, you can identify the key time intervals when the market is seeking liquidity, filling imbalances, or breaking through important highs and lows, allowing you to enter or exit trades at the right moment.
Silver Bullet Strategy : This strategy, which is built around liquidity hunting and rapid price movements, can work more accurately with the help of ICT Macros. The indicator pinpoints precise liquidity times, helping traders take advantage of market shifts caused by filling Fair Value Gaps or correcting imbalances.
🟣 Capitalizing on Price Volatility During Key Times
Large market algorithms often seek liquidity or fill Fair Value Gaps (FVG) during the intervals marked by ICT Macros. These periods are when price volatility increases, and traders can use these moments to enter or exit trades.
For example, if sell-side liquidity is drained and the market fills an imbalance, the price might move toward buy-side liquidity. By identifying these moments, which may also involve breaking a previous high or low, you can leverage rapid market fluctuations to your advantage.
🟣 Identifying Liquidity and Price Imbalances
One of the important uses of ICT Macros is identifying points where the market is seeking liquidity and correcting imbalances. You can determine high or low liquidity levels in the market before each ICT Macro, as well as Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and price imbalances that need to be filled, using them to adjust your trading strategy. This capability allows you to manage trades based on liquidity shifts or imbalance corrections without needing a bias toward a specific direction.
🔵 Settings
The ICT Macros indicator offers various customization options, allowing users to tailor it to their specific needs. Below are the main settings:
Time Zone Mode : You can select one of the following options to define how time is displayed:
UTC : For traders who need to work with Universal Time.
Session Local Time : The local time corresponding to the London or New York markets.
Your Time Zone : You can specify your own time zone (e.g., "UTC-4:00").
Your Time Zone : If you choose "Your Time Zone," you can set your specific time zone. By default, this is set to UTC-4:00.
Show Range Time : This option allows you to display the time range of each session on the chart. If enabled, the exact start and end times of each interval are shown.
Show or Hide Time Ranges : Toggle on/off for visual clarity depending on user preference.
Custom Colors : Set distinct colors for each session, allowing users to personalize their chart based on their trading style.These settings allow you to adjust the key time intervals of each trading session to your preference and customize the time format according to your own needs.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Macros indicator is a powerful tool for traders, helping them to identify key time intervals where the market seeks liquidity or fills Fair Value Gaps (FVG), corrects imbalances, and breaks highs or lows. This tool is especially valuable for traders using liquidity-based strategies such as ICT 2022 or Silver Bullet.
One of the key features of this indicator is its support for Daylight Saving Time (DST), ensuring you are always in sync with the correct trading session timings without manual adjustments. This is particularly beneficial for traders operating across different time zones.
With ICT Macros, you can capitalize on crucial market opportunities during sensitive times, take advantage of imbalances, and enhance your trading strategies based on market volatility, liquidity shifts, and Fair Value Gaps.

Diddly - Charts (Asian, London & New York Session + Weekdays)Overview:
Diddly Charts is for providing intraday context to where we are in the market. It does this through a series of ranges displayed throughout the day, typically broken down into the Asian, London, and New York sessions.
This indicator also highlights key market structures like monthly, weekly, and previous day's highs and lows. Lines are provided for weekday and weekend separators, with the days of the week at the bottom of the chart, making it extremely useful for traders when identifying weekly cycles.
Usage:
All aspects of this indicator are changeable within the settings, allowing you to utilise the elements that are most important to your trading strategy.
The default layout is extremely useful for currency pairs, where traders use the London and New York boxes as windows of when to engage with the market. The times of these trading sessions can be changed to suit the trading periods that you want to trade.
Adhering to trading windows can help improve discipline to ensure that you are only taking entries within the time periods that match your trading strategy.
Some traders prefer a cleaner interface and don't want any indicator to detract from the price action they are reading, this can be achieved through changing the colour and their transparency in settings. In this example, you will see different labels used to annotate key structures, these can be changed to something that is relevant to your strategy in the settings.
It can also be used for trading Stocks where sessions are broken down into pre-market, market hours and post-market. This can be helpful to see those stocks that breakout of pre-market session highs and lows and also provide trading windows to keep traders out of trades that do not comply with their trading strategy.
Using higher time frames like a 4 hour chart or even the 1 hour chart, the intraday sessions are hidden away so traders can get a broader perspective without the clutter when zooming out. Although there are options to turn it on if you would prefer.
Here on a zoomed out 1 hour chart we have the option to only display the weekly line separator, which can help get an overview of weekly cycles.
Helpful Information
The main setting that you may want to change is at the top of the indicator settings, which is asking "what asset type" is the symbol being looked at. The indicator needs to know how to display the session range information. For example for currencies, the range size will be displayed in pips. For stocks or Futures it would display the financial amount. Beyond the visual display of information, this setting has no other impact on the indicator behaviour. The default setting is "Currencies".
We often get asked what the labels that appear on the chart mean. These can all be changed to your requirements, but by default what you will see when you apply the indicator to the chart is:
Under the Asian Range appears a couple of labels.
A = x : This is the range size of the session in pips for forex or amount for other assets, from the lowest to the highest price traded during that window.
ADR = y : This is the Average Daily Range over the last 21 days for this ticker
Under the London and New York session you will see a L = x or NY = y . This is the range size of each session in pips for forex or amount for other assets.
Structure Labels
YH = Yesterday's High
YL = Yesterday's Low
WH = Current Week's High
WL = Current Week's Low
MH = Current Month's High
ML = Current Month's Low
We greatly appreciate the support and feedback from the Trading View community, and we are dedicated to continuing to improve our indicators with your support.
We want to help you manage risk, and that's why we emphasise that trading is risky and any technology used to support our trading decisions is based on information from the past. We encourage traders to take responsibility for their trading businesses and always prioritise risk management.
Forex session - Opening Range- Jayy fixed updatedOpening Range (OR) for Forex 24 hour regular session. This is not for regular market day sessions addressed in a separate script.
This script fixes four issues:
syntax error when code compiles
messed up opening range the day after a holiday Monday
flaky plotting of the opening range and targets that required page reloading
TradingView problems with starting forex session at 1700 hours EST/EDT when using certain securities eg FX_IDC currently (Jan 2017)
Additions in his code are more options for trading range
Time compensation option for some securities that incorrectly start sessions at 1200 hrs instead of 1700 hrs NY time
- this glitch is likely temporary but present when this script update was created
More opening range time period choices
Opening Range Targets:
Opening Range Targets as per Leaf_West
Targets are set at 127% , 162%, 200 %, 262 %, 362%, 423%, 685%, 1109% and 1794% and this can be traded intraday using methods described here charts-by-leaf.com I also have some Leaf West PDFs that describe how the targets are set and how they are traded. There are others that use opening range.
The Time Session Glitch and the Fix:
The script will correctly default to 1700 hrs to 1700hrs EDT/EST session for FXCM.
Strangely some securities appear to erroneously start their session at 1200 hrs ie. My guess is that they are somehow tied to GMT+0 instead of New York time (GMT+5). See this for yourself by selecting EURUSD using the FXCM exchange (FX:EURUSD) and then EURUSD from the IDC exchange (FX_IDC:EURUSD). The FX-IDC session opening range starts 5 hours
before it actually should at 1700 hrs EDT/EST. To correct for this I have implemented an automatic fix (default) and a user selected "5 hour time shift adjust. ment needed on some securities".
There is also a 4 hour time shift button which might be necessary when New York reverts from Eastern Standard Time
to Eastern Daylight Time (1 hour difference) in March (and then back again in November). In the default auto adjust mode you will need to select the 1 hour time shift. That is if this glitch still exists at that time.
I have looked at other scripts, other than my own and where the script is available, that need to use information about the opening bar and all have the same time shift issue
What are the choices for Opening Range?
The dialogue box offers the standard TradingView options.
Also where you see Pick Opening Range 1 to 12 hours , SET TO 0 To USE LINE ABOVE TO DETERMINE OR LENGTH
As the note says a number other than 0 will override the standard options from the line above
The dialogue box below in offers choices by hours 1 to 12. A number greater than 12 will still only give
720 minutes (12 hours) for the length of Opening Range.
What sessions within the FOREX time-frame are available?
The default is 1700 hours to 1700 hours EST/EDT
Check any one (only one) of the time periods to change the opening range period to suit.
New York opens at 8:00 am to 5:00 pm EST (EDT)
Tokyo opens at 7:00 pm to 4:00 am EST (EDT)
Sydney opens at 5:00 pm to 2:00 am EST (EDT)
London opens at 3:00 am to 12:00 noon EST (EDT)
There is a build your own session (click the button to select)
The two lines for inputting session times are almost identical except that the second line starts the be the same as each other.
The default for the build your own session is 2200 hours to 2200 hours. As of the time of publishing this plots EURUSD FX-IDC just right. The GMT+5 and GMT+4 do not apply to this selection.
See my comments above on this strange aberration.
The script originated from work done by Chris Moody. It has changed significantly but there are remnants of that script lurking within.
Script is free to all - that way you can see what is inside
Cheers Jayy

SMC sessionzz by JelleThe main function of this indicator is to make it easy to identify several smart money concepts (SMC) and ICT practices by using a single indicator. The functions themselves are not my original content, but rather a collection of several scripts with some tweaking, combined into a single indicator.
Main functions:
- Provides the ability to set bar color for London, New York and Asia sessions
- Provides the ability to set background color for London, New York and Asia sessions
- Provides the ability to indicate NY and GMT midnight on the chart by plotting vertical lines
- Provides several smart features to turn bar color and background color on/off depending on the timeframe
Usage example:
- Easily determine each session high and low by using the bar color feature
- Easily determine the daily high and low by using the vertical midnight lines
- Easily determine ICT kill zones by setting background color for each session
- Easily avoid clutter on your chart by using the timeframe filters
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.

Rapid ORB Pro – Breakout & Fakeout Detector (Multi Sessions)"Multi-session ORB tool with breakout confirmation, fakeout detection, and volume filter for true momentum trades. DLS confusion proof"
Description
The Rapid ORB Pro indicator is designed to identify opening range breakouts (ORB) across multiple sessions and confirm whether the move is valid or a likely fakeout. This tool works on any asset and timeframe where range trading is relevant. Also coded in a way to tackle daylight saving issue around the world.
Core Concepts
1. Opening Range Breakout (ORB):
The indicator marks the defined opening range for each session and tracks when price breaks above or below this range.
2. Confirmation Rules:
A breakout is only confirmed when:
The breakout candle shows a strong body (momentum candle), not just a wick.
The candle closes beyond the prior candle’s high or low, ensuring follow-through.
The structure aligns with market flow (Higher High / Higher Low in bullish context, Lower High / Lower Low in bearish context).
These conditions help filter weak breakouts and highlight true momentum moves.
3. Fakeout Detection (FO):
If price breaks out but the very next candle closes back inside the opening range, an FO marker is plotted. This helps traders exit limit orders quickly and avoid false signals.
4. 7-Bar Check:
If no valid breakout occurs within 7 candles after the range, the indicator prints a “7” on the chart. This signals a likely choppy session where breakout trades have lower probability.
5. Volume State Table:
A table on the chart compares the breaker candle’s volume with the highest volume candle inside the opening range. This provides a quick assessment of whether the breakout was backed by strong participation (High Volume) or weaker flow (Low Volume).
Use Cases
Works on forex, indices, commodities, and crypto.
Useful for scalpers looking to catch the first breakout of the day.
Helps swing traders filter false moves in volatile sessions.
Can be applied to any range trading strategy, not limited to session opens
.
Trading Tip
Trend is your friend, with trend behind the signal probability goes high.
Check the previous session or prior day stab (PD stab).
Watch for SMT divergence forming across correlated pairs.
If SMT lines up with a signal, the breaker confirmation is stronger.
Both SMT alignment and trend behind valid breakout candle increase the probability of a sustained move.
Always start with lower time frame and go up the time frame ladder. Depending on the market you can catch move earlier within lower time frame.
Note: Each input option in this indicator includes a tooltip with detailed explanations. We recommend experimenting with the settings and backtesting to discover what aligns best with your trading style and comfort zone. By default, the confirmation filters are set to what we have found to be the most effective combinations.

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.

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.
