SessionsOverview of the "Sessions" Indicator
The "Sessions" indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who want to visualize and analyze the market activity during different global trading sessions directly on their charts. This indicator highlights the London, New York, Tokyo, and Sydney sessions with distinct background colors, making it easy to see when each market is open.
Key Features
Session Visualization: The indicator provides clear visual cues for the active trading sessions, allowing traders to quickly identify periods of high market activity.
Customizable Timeframes: Users can set their preferred resolution for viewing session data, making it adaptable to any trading strategy.
Automatic Session Detection: The indicator automatically detects the start and end of each session based on specified times, updating in real-time as the market progresses.
Practical Applications
Trend Identification: By observing how prices move during specific sessions, traders can identify trends and make informed predictions about future price movements.
Volatility Analysis: Different sessions often exhibit varying levels of volatility. This indicator helps traders anticipate potential price spikes or lulls during these times.
Strategy Optimization: Traders can optimize their strategies by focusing on sessions that align with their trading style, whether it's the high volatility of the London session or the quieter Sydney session.
Market Overlap: The indicator makes it easy to see when sessions overlap, which is typically when the market experiences increased liquidity and volatility.

USA VWAPFuture traders commonly watch both the globex VWAP (all time) and the US session VWAP (9:30am to 4:00pm). Trading view's built-in VWAP indicator plots the globex VWAP.
