Overview
The Morning Range Indicator highlights the high and low of the market session from 6 AM to 10AM, providing key levels for potential breakout trades. The box dynamically updates in real-time, extending until 4 PM, and adjusts color based on price action.
This tool is ideal for traders looking to identify breakout opportunities and visualize key intraday price ranges.
How It Works
Session High & Low (6 AM - 10 AM)
The indicator tracks the highest high and lowest low within this time window.
Once 10 AM passes, the high and low are locked in and will not change.
Box Extends Until 4 PM
The session box remains visible throughout the trading day.
It provides a visual reference for potential breakout zones.
Dynamic Box Coloring
Gray (Neutral): Neither high nor low is broken.
Green: Only the high is broken before 4 PM.
Red: Only the low is broken before 4 PM.
Yellow: Both high and low are broken before 4 PM.
Live Updating Box
The box appears as soon as the session begins at 6 AM.
It dynamically updates the high and low until 10 AM.
