Features:
Draws horizontal rays for session highs and lows
Automatically resets for each session
Perfect for I CT-style liquidity analysis , range breaks , and session-based trading setups
Clean chart : no labels or clutter, just the key session levels
Use it to identify liquidity zones , plan entries , and anticipate potential session raids in your trading strategy.
Padder Scalp - Manipulation Triangle + First 15m Session BoxThis indicator combines intraday manipulation detection with session‑based structure and key candlestick pattern labeling to support precision scalp trading.
1. Manipulation Candle Detection (Daily ATR‑Based)
The script calculates the Daily ATR(14) and compares each intraday candle’s range to it.
If a candle’s range is ≥ 20% of the daily ATR, it is flagged as a potential manipulation candle.
A purple triangle is plotted beneath any candle that meets this threshold, helping traders quickly spot abnormal volatility spikes that often precede liquidity grabs or engineered moves.
2. First 15‑Minute RTH Session Box (9:30–9:45 AM)
Designed for use on a 15‑minute chart, the script automatically identifies the first bar of the regular trading session (RTH).
When the 9:30–9:45 candle prints:
- Its high and low are captured
- A session box is created using those levels
- The box extends across the entire trading day
This provides a consistent structural reference point for opening‑range dynamics, liquidity sweeps, and intraday bias.
3. Automatic Box Extension
Once the first RTH candle is detected, the script draws a blue box from that candle’s high/low and continuously extends it to the right for the remainder of the session.
This creates a persistent visual anchor for:
- Breakouts
- Retests
- Rejections
- Mean‑reversion scalps
4. Candlestick Pattern Detection + Labels
The script identifies and labels four high‑value reversal/continuation patterns:
- Bullish Engulfing → green label above the candle
- Bearish Engulfing → red label below the candle
- Hammer → yellow label below the candle
- Inverted Hammer → orange label above the candle
These labels help traders quickly spot actionable price‑action signals without manually scanning every bar.
Overall Purpose
This tool blends volatility‑based manipulation detection, opening‑range structure, and real‑time candlestick pattern recognition into a single, clean visual system.
It’s built for scalpers and intraday traders who rely on:
- Opening‑range levels
- Liquidity cues
- Manipulation signals
- Price‑action confirmation
to time entries with precision.

1. ภาพรวมการทำงาน (Overview)
อินดิเคเตอร์ตัวนี้ทำหน้าที่ 4 อย่างหลักพร้อมกัน:
Auto DST (ปรับเวลาตามฤดูอัตโนมัติ): คุณไม่ต้องมานั่งแก้เวลาเมื่อตลาดต่างประเทศเปลี่ยนเวลา (Daylight Saving Time) เพราะโค้ดอ้างอิง Timezone ของตลาดนั้นๆ โดยตรง (เช่น NY ใช้ America/New_York)
Session Bars: แสดงแถบสีเล็กๆ ด้านล่างจอเพื่อบอกว่าตอนนี้อยู่ใน Session ไหน (Asia, London, NY AM, NY PM, Thai) แทนการถมสีพื้นหลังซึ่งอาจจะรกตา
High/Low Levels & Sweeps: เมื่อจบ Session โปรแกรมจะตีเส้น High และ Low ของช่วงเวลานั้นทิ้งไว้ ถ้ากราฟวิ่งไปชนเส้นเหล่านั้น (Breakout/Sweep) เส้นจะเปลี่ยนเป็นเส้นประและขึ้นข้อความว่า "(Swept)"
1. Indicator Overview and Purpose (ICT/SMC Framework)
This custom Pine Script indicator is designed specifically for traders utilizing ICT (Inner Circle Trader) or SMC (Smart Money Concepts) methodologies. Its primary function is to simplify the analysis of Time & Price by automatically defining and tracking key market sessions, their resulting liquidity levels (High/Low), and detecting liquidity sweeps (Stop Hunts).
The indicator is designed to be Zero-Maintenance regarding time zones, as it automatically adjusts for Daylight Saving Time (DST) changes in major financial centers (London, New York).
2. Key Features and Logic
A. Automatic DST Handling (Auto-DST)
The script uses specific, location-based time zones for global markets instead of a fixed GMT/UTC offset.
Asia: Uses Asia/Tokyo.
London: Uses Europe/London (Automatically adjusts for BST).
New York (AM/PM): Uses America/New_York (Automatically adjusts for EST/EDT).
This guarantees that the session times displayed on your chart (regardless of your local time, e.g., Thailand GMT+7) always align with the actual opening and closing moments of the corresponding financial market.
USD Session 8FX - LDN & NY (TF-invariant, Live + Table)What changed
Flexible session window
Removed the old fixed NY end-time selector.
Added new inputs so you can pick start time and length:
London: ldnStartSel (default 08:00) and ldnLenSel with options 45/60/90 minutes.
New York: nyStartSel (default 15:30) and nyLenSel with options 45/60/90 minutes.
The session string used by time(refTF, sess, tz) is now built dynamically as "HHMM-HHMM" from start + length (e.g., 1530-1630).
The label shown in the table (winTxt) auto-formats to HH:MM–HH:MM.
New time helpers
addMinutesHHMM() computes the end time from a "HHMM" start plus a minute length.
makeSess() produces the session string "HHMM-HHMM".
prettySess() converts "HHMM-HHMM" → "HH:MM-HH:MM".
(Kept on one line to avoid the “end of line without line continuation” error.)
Stability & UI fixes
Main table now uses table.new(f_pos(tablePos), ...) directly (no undeclared pos variable).
Trade Gate panel uses a properly initialized gatePosEnum before table.new(...) (fixes “Undeclared identifier”).
Minor cleanups; no logic changes.
What did NOT change
Scoring logic: returns → optional ATR normalization → weights → anti-USD vs USD-base averages → final score.
Thresholds: minAbsScore and live intrath alerts are unchanged.
VWAP Gate logic is the same (price vs VWAP consistency depending on USD Strong/Weak).
Freeze/Lock of values at session end is unchanged.
Alerts (session close bias, live threshold cross, and “Entry hint”) are unchanged.
Why this helps (practical impact)
Longer windows (e.g., NY 60/90, LDN 60/90) usually make the score more robust, filtering noise and reducing false signals—at the cost of a slightly slower signal.
You can now A/B test:
London: 45 vs 60 vs 90
New York: 45 vs 60 vs 90
without touching anything else; the indicator adapts automatically.
How to use
Choose Session (London / New York).
Set the start and length for that session.
The background highlight, the winTxt, and the entry/exit logic all follow the dynamic window.
Quick tips to reduce false signals
Try NY 60 or NY 90 and LDN 60 when volatility is choppy.
Keep ATR normalization ON (useATRnorm = true) for more comparable returns.
Consider raising minAbsScore slightly (e.g., from 0.12 → 0.15–0.20) if you still see noise.
Use the VWAP Gate panel: only act when Bias OK and at least one of the Top-3 pairs shows VWAP OK.
If you want, I can add quick presets (buttons) to jump between LDN 45/60/90 and NY 45/60/90, or plot two Scores side by side for direct comparison.
Multi-Session Viewer and AnalyzerFully customizable multi-session viewer that takes session analysis to the next level. It allows you to fully customize each session to your liking. Includes a feature that highlights certain periods of time on the chart and a Time Range Marker.
It helps you analyze the instrument that you trade and pinpoint which times are more volatile than others. It also helps you choose the best time to trade your instrument and align your life schedule with the market.
NZDUSD Example:
- 3 major sessions displayed.
- Although this is NZDUSD, Sydney is not the best time to trade this pair. Volatility picks up at Tokyo open.
- I have time to trade in the evening from 18:00 to 22:00 PST. I live in a different time zone, whereas market is based on EST. How does the pair behave during the time I am available to trade based on my time zone? Time Range Marker feature allows you to see this clearly on the chart (black lines).
- I have some time in the morning to trade during New York session, but there is no way I am waking up at 05:00 PST. 06:30 PST seems doable. Blue highlighted area is good time to trade during New York session based on what Bob said. It seem like this aligns with when I am available and when I am able to trade. Volatility is also at its peak.
- I am also available to trade between London close and Tokyo open on some days of the week, but... based on what I see, green highlighted area is clearly showing that I probably don't want to waste my time trading this pair from London close and until Tokyo open. I will use this time for something else rather than be stuck in a range.
Pre-London & London Session (Auto DST) MMMThis indicator automatically marks the Pre-London and London Open sessions for any trading day, with full U.S. Daylight Saving Time (DST) adjustment.
It’s ideal for traders backtesting Gold (XAUUSD) or other pairs sensitive to London liquidity, as it dynamically shifts between UTC-4 and UTC-5 to stay perfectly aligned with institutional session timing.
Features:
🕑 Auto-detects whether the date falls under U.S. Daylight or Standard Time
🟧 Highlights Pre-London session (2 a.m.–3 a.m. EDT / 1 a.m.–2 a.m. EST)
🟩 Highlights London session (3 a.m.–5 a.m. EDT / 2 a.m.–4 a.m. EST)
⚙️ No manual adjustments needed — fully automatic for any backtest date

**ACD Indicator: Mark Fisher's Opening Range Breakout Strategy**
**Overview**
The ACD system, developed by legendary trader Mark Fisher in his book *The Logical Trader*, is a powerful methodology for identifying high-probability trade setups based on the market's opening range (OR). This indicator automates Layers 1 and 2 of the ACD strategy, helping you spot breakout opportunities, trend direction, and key support/resistance levels. Perfect for day traders, scalpers, and swing traders in forex, stocks, futures, or crypto.
**How It Works**
1. **Opening Range (OR)**: Calculated from the high/low of the first X minutes (default: 30-60 min) of major sessions (e.g., Tokyo, London, New York).
2. **A Levels**: Drawn at a percentage (default: 0.5% of OR range or ATR-based) above/below the OR. A breakout above A-Up signals a bullish setup; below A-Down signals bearish.
3. **C Levels**: Wider levels (default: 1-2% or ATR multiplier) for stronger confirmation. Breakouts here confirm trend strength and filter fakeouts.
4. **Pivot Ranges**: Includes daily and N-day pivots to gauge overall market bias (above pivots = bullish; below = bearish).
**Key Features**
- **Customizable Sessions**: Tokyo (00:00-01:00 GMT), London (08:00-09:00 GMT), New York (13:30-14:30 GMT) – adjustable.
- **ATR Integration**: Uses Average True Range for dynamic A/C levels (period: 14 by default).
- **Visual Alerts**: Color-coded lines (green for bullish, red for bearish) + optional labels for breakouts.
- **Pivot Display**: Show/hide daily or multi-day pivots with customizable colors.
- **Risk Management**: Built-in stop-loss suggestions based on OR width.
**Trading Rules**
- **Bullish Setup**: Price breaks and holds above A-Up → Enter long at C-Up confirmation. Target: Next pivot or 1:2 risk-reward.
- **Bearish Setup**: Price breaks below A-Down → Enter short at C-Down.
- **Avoid Fakeouts**: Wait for stabilization (e.g., close above/below level).
- **Trend Filter**: Combine with PMA (Pivot Moving Average) for Layer 3 confirmation (search "ACD PMA" in TradingView).
**Settings Guide**
- **OR Timeframe**: Session start time and duration (e.g., 30 min).
- **A Multiplier (%)**: Distance for A levels (default: 0.5).
- **C Multiplier (%)**: Distance for C levels (default: 1.0).
- **ATR Period**: For volatility-based levels (default: 14).
- **Show Pivots**: Toggle daily/N-day ranges.
This indicator balances supply/demand by analyzing volume and price action within the opening range. Backtest on your favorite pairs (e.g., EURUSD, BTCUSD) and adjust for your style. Not financial advice – always use proper risk management!

Intraday Volume Indicator for INDICES by TBTPH Pine Script code for an intraday volume indicator with session and lunch break highlights looks great! Here’s a summary of what each part of the script does:
Indicator Settings:
The indicator is set to show on a separate pane (overlay=false).
The SMA Length is adjustable with an input box (default of 20).
Volume and SMA Calculation:
You calculate the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume over the selected length.
The volume color is determined based on whether the close price is higher or lower than the previous close and if the volume is above or below the SMA.
Volume Plot:
Volume is plotted as a histogram with different colors to indicate if the volume is higher or lower than the SMA.
You plot the SMA of the volume with an orange line for easier comparison.
Background Color:
You set a light gray background color to give a subtle contrast.
NYSE and LSE trading sessions are highlighted with green and blue, respectively.
Lunch break periods are highlighted with a white background for both exchanges.
Here are a couple of improvements or suggestions you might consider:
Session Time Overlap Handling:
If the script is applied to a chart where both NYSE and LSE data is visible, they may overlap depending on the time zone of your chart. Ensure the session times align with the active market's timezone, especially if you are using a chart with a different timezone setting.
Color Customization:
The color scheme for bullish/bearish volume could be enhanced further. For example, you could introduce more transparency for low-volume periods to make the histogram appear more subtle during less active trading times.
Handling Different Time Zones:
If your chart is not in the "America/New_York" or "GMT" time zone, be mindful of the session times. The timestamp function depends on the chart’s time zone, so ensuring you're adjusting for different markets is key.
Futures Globex Session(s)This indicator draws a box around the Globex Session for the various Futures markets.

Cristina - Trading Sessions and Moving AveragesCombination of Trading Sessions and Moving Averages. You can easily edit the time frame background to give you a visual presentation of your most active trading hours or customize it to represent the different forex trading session inline with your local time.
The default moving average here is the 20, 50, 100, 200 and 250 MA. The use of moving averages could be in a (1) form of cross over to find out the dominant trend, (2) use it to find value zone or (3) use it to find dynamic support levels. It greatly depends on your trading system.
With the combination of the trading sessions and the moving averages, you could isolate the trades you will be taking inline with your active hours. Thus this is a great tool to add in terms of day trading or swing trading with the lower time frames.
Initial Balance Monitoring PanelInitial Balance Monitoring Panel
Allows you to have an instant view of 16 Crypto pairs within a monitoring panel, monitoring Initial Balance (Asia, London, New York Stock Exchanges).
The code can easily be changed to suit the crypto pairs you are trading.
The setup of my chart would also include this indicator and the " Initial Balance Markets Time Zones - Overall Highest and Lowest " (with all IBs enabled) as shown above.
Initial Balance is based on the highest and lowest price action within the first 60 minutes of trading. Reading online this can depict which way the market can trend for the session.
The indicator has been coded for Crypto (so other symbols may not work as expected).
Though Initial Balance is based off the first 60 minutes of the trading markets opening, but Crypto is 24/7, this indicator looks at how Asia, London and New York Stock Exchanges opening trading can affect Crypto price action.
As the current Market sentiment is bullish if the price action fell below all Initial balances I would be looking at completing Technical Analysis for a long trade and to see if price action can find support from the trading sessions Initial Balance:
Please see below an example of this....
IOTAUSDT signaled red (that it had dropped below all IBs) but then found support and moved on up.
Also a similar example as above for BTCUSDT....
If the signal is green do your technical analysis, but as shown below once the highest Initial Balance has been broken price can increase.

I would like to say thanks to AnyDozer from StackOverFlow for helping me get my idea onto the charts and wugamlo for allowing me to use some of his panel code.
