Equity Sessions [vnhilton]Note: Numbers in the chart above, particularly volume, are incorrect as I didn't have extra market data at the time of publication. Default settings are set for US markets.
(OVERVIEW)
This indicator was made specifically for equity markets which have pre-market and after-hours trading, though can be used for any other markets without these sessions, there are many other session indicators better suited for those markets. What makes this indicator different to the hundreds of session indicators out there will be highlighted in bold in the Features section below.

How it works
Session trend is calculated simply by subtracting the session's opening price from the session's closing price (or current price if session is open).
If there is a gap before the session, the previous close is used instead of the first candle's open price.

forex session - Opening-Range- JayyMy first try on anything forex. Let me know if it needs adjustment.
This is Opening Range for forex
Targets set at 127% , 162%, 200 %, 262 %, 362%, 423%, 685%, 1109% and 1794%
of the selected opening range. You can adjust targets as you like in the dialogue box
362%, 423%, 685%, 1109% and 1794% levels will not show unless selected in the dialogue box.
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)
Because the actual forex day starts at 5pm it is not possible to plot some time periods correctly
ie try 120 minutes on the New York session. (Although this is not a problem with the other sessions)
If you keep to an hour or less and use periods that divide evenly into an hour all will be fine. All periods will actually work but will start looking a little funny.
No such problem occurs if you just use 5pm est to 5 pm est. other sessions could be put in as options or hard wired in with a few lines of script changes
There is an option in the dialogue box to display fib targets within Opening Range itself.
In the far past I adapted some original work created by Chris Moody from a 7-07-2014 script - there have been multiple adaptations . The script layout/ structure remains similar and messages regarding targets achieved (lines 224 - 230) are from the original script. In the original Chris gave Special Thanks To "The Coding Genius Behind The Curtain" - so hat tip to both.
Bullish Breakaway Dual Session-Publish-Consolidated FVG
Inspired by the FVG Concept:
This indicator is built on the Fair Value Gap (FVG) concept, with a focus on Consolidated FVG. Unlike traditional FVGs, this version only works within a defined session (e.g., ETH 18:00–17:00 or RTH 09:30–16:00).
Bullish consolidated FVG & Bullish breakaway candle
Begins when a new intraday low is printed. After that, the indicator searches for the 1st bullish breakaway candle, which must have its low above the high of the intraday low candle. Any candles in between are part of the consolidated FVG zone. Once the 1st breakaway forms, the indicator will shades the candle’s range (high to low). Then it will use this candle as an anchor to search for the 2nd, 3rd, etc. breakaways until the session ends.
Session Reset: Occurs at session close.
Repaint Behavior:
If a new intraday (or intra-session) low forms, earlier breakaway patterns are wiped, and the system restarts from the new low.
Counter:
A session-based counter at the top of the chart displays how many bullish consolidated FVGs have formed.
Settings
• Session Setup:
Choose ETH, RTH, or custom session. The indicator is designed for CME futures in New York timezone, but can be adjusted for other markets.
If nothing appears on your chart, check if you loaded it during an inactive session (e.g., weekend/Friday night).
• Max Zones to Show:
Default = 3 (recommended). You can increase, but 3 zones are usually most useful.
• Timeframe:
Best on 1m, 5m, or 15m. (If session range is big, try higher time frame)
Usage
1. Avoid Trading in Wrong Direction
• No bullish breakaway = No long trade.
• Prevents the temptation to countertrade in strong downtrends.
2. Catch the Trend Reversal
• When a bullish breakaway appears after an intraday low, it signals a potential reversal.
• You will need adjust position sizing, watch out liquidity hunt, and place stop loss.
• Best entries of your preferred choices: (this is your own trading edge)
Retest
Breakout
Engulf
MA cross over
Whatever your favorite approach
• Reversal signal is the strongest when price stays within/above the breakaway candle’s
range. Weak if it breaks below.
3. Higher Timeframe Confirmation
• 1m can give false reversals if new lows keep forming.
• 5m often provides cleaner signals and avoids premature reversals.
Failed Trade Example:
This indicator will repaint if a new intraday session low is updated. So it is possible to have a failed trade. Here is an example from the same session in 1m chart. However, if you enter the trade later at another bullish breakaway candle signal. The loss can be mitigated by the profit.
Therefore you should use smaller position size for your 1st trade. You should also considering using 5m chart to avoid 1m bull trap. In this example, if you use 5m chart, you can totally avoid this failed trade.
If you enter the trade, you will see the intraday low is stop loss hunted. You can also see the 1st bullish breakaway candle is super weak. There are a lot of candles below the breakaway candle low, so it is very possible to fail.
In the next chart, you can see the failed traded get stop loss hunted. However you can enter another trade with huge profit to win back the loss from the 1st trade if you follow the rule.
Summary
This indicator offers 3 main advantages:
1. Prevents wrong-direction trades.
2. Confirms trend entry after reversal signals.
3. Filters false positives using higher timeframes.
How to sharp your edge:
1. ⏳Extreme patience⏳: Do not guess the bottom during a downtrend before a confirmed bullish breakaway candle. If you get caught, have the courage to cut loss. This is literally the most important usage of this indicator. Again, this is the most important rule of this indicator and actually the hardest rule to follow.
2. 🛎Better Entry🛎: After a confirmed bullish breakaway, you will always have a good opportunity to enter the trade using established trading technique. Your edge will come from the position size, draw down, stop loss placement, risk/reward ratio.
3. ✂Cut loss fast✂: If you enter a trade according to the rule, but you are still not making profit for a period of time, and the price is below the low of the breakaway candle. It is very likely you may hit stop loss soon (intraday session low). It won't be a bad idea to cut loss before stop loss hit.
4. 🔂Reentry with confidence after stop loss🔂: a stop loss will not invalidate the indicator. If you see a second chance to reenter, you should still follow the trade guide and rule.
5. 🕔Time frame matter🕔: try 1m, 3m, 5m, 10m, 15m time frame. Over time, you should know what time frame work best for you and the market. Higher time frame will reduce the noise of false positive trade, but it comes with a higher stop loss placement and less max profit, however it may come with a lower draw down. Time frame will matter depending on the range of the session. If the session range is small (<0.5%), lower time frame is good. If session range is big (>1%), 5m time frame is better. Remember to wait for candle to close, if you use higher time frame.
Last Mention:
The indicator is only used for bullish side trading.
ADR/ATR Session No Probability Table by LKHere you go—clear, English docs you can drop into your script’s description or share with teammates.
ADR/ATR Session by LK — Overview
This indicator summarizes Average Daily Range (ADR) and Average True Range (ATR) for two horizons:
• Session H4 (e.g., 06:00–13:00 on a 4‑hour chart)
• Daily (D)
It shows:
• Current ADR/ATR values (using your chosen smoothing method)
• How much of ADR/ATR today/this bar has already been consumed (% of ADR/ATR)
• ADR/ATR as a percent of price
• Optional probability blocks: likelihood that %ADR will exceed user‑defined thresholds over a lookback window
• Optional on‑chart lines for the current H4 and Daily candles: Open, ADR High, ADR Low
⸻
What the metrics mean
• ADR (H4 / D): Moving average of the bar range (high - low).
• ATR (H4 / D): Moving average of True Range (max(hi-lo, |hi-close |, |lo-close |)).
• % of ADR (curr H4): (H4 range of the current H4 bar) / ADR(H4) × 100. Updates live even if the current time is outside the session.
• % of ADR (Daily): (today’s intra‑day range) / ADR(D) × 100.
• % of ATR (curr H4 / Daily): TR / ATR × 100 for that horizon.
• ADR % of Price / ATR % of Price: ADR or ATR divided by current price × 100 (a quick “volatility vs. price” gauge).
Session logic (H4): ADR/ATR(H4) only update on bars that fall inside the configured session window; outside the window the values hold steady (no recalculation “bleed”).
Daily range tracking: The indicator tracks today’s high/low in real‑time and resets at the day change.
⸻
Inputs (quick reference)
Core
• Length (ADR/ATR): smoothing length for ADR/ATR (default 21).
• Wait for Higher TF Bar Close: if true, updates ADR/ATR only after the higher‑TF bar closes when using request.security.
Timeframes
• Session Timeframe (H4): default 240.
• Daily Timeframe: default D.
Session time
• Session Timezone: “Chart” (default) or a fixed timezone.
• Session Start Hour, End Hour (minutes are fixed to 0 in this version).
Smoothing methods
• H4 ADR Method / H4 ATR Method: SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA.
• Daily ADR Method / Daily ATR Method: SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA.
Table appearance
• Table BG, Table Text, Table Font Size.
Lines (optional)
• Show current H4 segments, Show current Daily segments
• Line colors for Open / ADR High / ADR Low
• Line width
Probability
• H4 Probability Lookback (bars): number of H4 bars to examine (e.g., 300).
• Daily Probability Lookback (days): number of D bars (e.g., 180).
• ADR thresholds (%): CSV list of thresholds (e.g., 25,50,55,60,65,70,75,80,85,90,95,100,125,150).
The table will show the % of lookback bars where %ADR ≥ threshold.
Tip: If you want probabilities only for session H4 bars (not every H4 bar), ask and I can add a toggle to filter by inSess.
⸻
How to read the table
H4 block
• ADR (method) / ATR (method): the session‑aware averages.
• % of ADR (curr H4): live progress of this H4 bar toward the session ADR.
• ADR % of Price: ADR(H4) relative to price.
• % of ATR (curr H4) and ATR % of Price: same idea for ATR.
H4 Probability (lookback N bars)
• Rows like “≥ 80% ADR” show the fraction (in %) of the last N H4 bars that reached at least 80% of ADR(H4).
Daily block
• Mirrors the H4 block, but for Daily.
Daily Probability (lookback M days)
• Rows like “≥ 100% ADR” show the fraction of the last M daily bars whose daily range reached at least 100% of ADR(D).
⸻
Practical usage
• Use % of ADR (curr H4 / Daily) to judge exhaustion or room left in the day/session.
E.g., if Daily %ADR is already 95%, be cautious with momentum continuation trades.
• The probability tables give a quick historical context:
If “≥ 125% ADR” is ~18%, the market rarely stretches that far; your trade sizing/targets can reflect that.
• ADR/ATR % of Price helps normalize volatility between instruments.
⸻
Troubleshooting
• If probability rows are blank: ensure lookback windows are large enough (and that the chart has enough history).
• If ADR/ATR show … (NA): usually you don’t have enough bars for the chosen length/TF yet.
• If line segments are missing: verify you’re on a chart with visible current H4/D bars and the toggles are enabled.
⸻
Notes & customization ideas
• Add a toggle to count only session bars in H4 probability.
• Add separate thresholds for H4 vs Daily.
• Let users pick minutes for session start/end if needed.
• Add alerts when %ADR crosses specified thresholds.
If you want me to bundle any of the “ideas” above into the code, say the word and I’ll ship a clean patch.

Market Sessions By Zcointv/ScottfdxThis code has been writted By Zcointv/Scottfdx traders
This is a Market Volatility Box Breakout Strategy designed for intraday trading on 5-minute charts.
How it Works:
Volatility Box: The strategy defines a "volatility box" by capturing the price range (High and Low) around the New York market open.
The box begins one hour before the market open and ends 30 minutes after the market open.
The High and Low of this box are locked for the rest of the day.
Breakout Entry: A trade is opened only after this session period has ended.
Long: A 5-minute candle must close above the High of the box.
Short: A 5-minute candle must close below the Low of the box.
Risk Management:
1% Risk: Each trade risks a maximum of 1% of the total account equity. The position size is calculated dynamically based on this risk.
Stop Loss: The initial stop-loss is placed just outside the opposite side of the box.
1:1 Take Profit: The target is set at a 1:1 risk-to-reward ratio.
Partial Exit & Breakeven: When the take-profit target is hit, 50% of the position is closed. The stop-loss for the remaining 50% is then immediately moved to the entry price (breakeven).
Key Features:
The strategy is limited to one trade per day.
The indicator also has options to display configurable boxes for the Tokyo and London sessions.
The High and Low levels of the volatility box are plotted on the chart for visual reference.

ALN Sessions - for NQ2/24/25 - v1
This script does not calculate any stats.
It uses the sessions and stats from NQStats/ALNSessions
Option to draw boxes around the session times.
Options to adjust the table text/background colors/position.
The logic will determine how the Asia and London sessions interact.
Once the New York session starts (8am), it will then display the appropriate stats.
Script quirk...fyi. The script removes the stats table at 6PM.
That's just how it works. I used grok to assist with the code, and it got funky. It works, so I left it that way.
The appropriate stats table will then be displayed when the next New York session begins.
---
There is another table I used just for troubleshooting to show the values of the Asia/London session highs/lows. This can just be ignored.

Opening Range with Breakouts & Targets [LuxAlgo]Opening Range with Breakouts & Targets is based on the long-standing Opening Range Breakout strategy popularized by traders such as Toby Crabel and Mark Fisher.
This indicator measures and displays the price range created from the first period within a new trading session, along with price breakouts from that range and targets associated with the range width.
🔶 USAGE
The Opening Range (OR) can be a powerful tool for making a clear distinction between ranging and trending trading days. Using a rigid structure for drawing a range, provides a consistent basis to make judgments and comparisons that will better assist the user in determining a hypothesis for the day's price action.
NOTE: During a suspected "Range Day", the Opening Range can be used for reversion strategies, typically targeting the opposite extreme of the range or the mean of the range. However, more commonly the Opening Range is used for breakouts on suspected "Trend Days", targeting further upward or downward market movement.
The common Opening Range Breakout Strategy (ORB) outlines a structure to enter and exit positions based on rigid points determined by the Opening Range. This methodology can be adjusted based on markets or trading styles.
Determine Opening Range High & Low: These are the high and low price within a chosen period of time after the market opens. This can be customized to the user's trading style and preference. Common Ranges are from 5-60 mins.
Watch for a Breakout with Volume: A Breakout occurs when price crosses the OR High (ORH) or OR Low (ORL), an increase in volume is typically desired when witnessing these breakouts to confirm a stronger movement.
Manage Risk: Based on user preference and the appropriately determined amount of risk, multiple ways can be determined to manage risk by using Opening Range.
For Example: A stop-loss could be set at OR Mean (ORM) or the opposite side of the range, while a profit target could optionally be set at the first price target generated by the script.
Alternatively, a user might want to use a Moving Average (MA) as an adaptive stop-loss and use price targets to scale out. These are just 2 examples of the possible options, both capable with this tool.
🔹 Signals
Signals will fire based on the break of the opening range, this is indicated by arrows above and below the range boundaries.
Optionally, a bias can be added to these signals to aid in mitigating false signals by using a directional filter based on the current day's OR relative to the previous day's OR.
Regardless of the signal bias being enabled, the Opening Range Zone will always be colored directionally according to this.
If the current day's OR is above the previous day's OR, the Zone will be Green.
If the current day's OR is below the previous day's OR, the Zone will be Red.
By enabling the signal bias, signals in the opposite direction of the daily bias will fire on the cross of the first target in that direction.
🔹 Targets
In this indicator, targets are not limited and will generate infinitely based on a % width of the Opening Range.
Additionally, there are 2 display methods for these targets.
Extended: Extends the targets to the current bar and displays all targets that have been crossed so far within the session.
Adaptive: Extends only the 2 closest targets surrounding price, allowing for a display consisting of fewer lines at one time.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Historical Display
This indicator can be utilized in multiple ways, for use in real-time, and for historical analysis to form methods. Because of this, the indicator has an option to display only the current day's data or the entire historical data. This can also help clean up the chart when it is in use.
🔹 Time Period
The specific time period to create the opening range is entirely up to each user's preference, by default it is set to 30 mins; however, this time period can be edited with full control if desired.
Simply toggle on the "Custom Range" and input a range of time to create the range.
🔹 Session Moving Average
The Session Moving Average is a common Moving Average, which resets at the beginning of a new session. This allows for an unbiased MA that was created entirely from the current session's price action.
Note: The start of the session is determined by the start of the Opening Range if using a custom range of time.
🔶 SETTINGS
Show Historical Data: Choose to display only the current session's data or the full history of data.
Opening Range Time Period: Select the time period to form the opening range from. This operates on Session Start, so it will change with the chart.
Custom Range: Opt for a custom Range by enabling this and inputting your range times as well as your needed timezone.
Breakout Signal Bias: Select if the Breakout Signals will use a Daily Directional Bias for firing.
Target % of Range: Sets the % of the Range width that will be used as an increment for the Targets to display in.
Target Cross Source: Choose to use the Close price or High/Low price as the crossing level for Target displays. When this source crosses a target it will generate more targets.
Target Display: Choose which style of display to use for targets.
Session Moving Average: Optionally enable a Moving average of your choice that resets at the beginning of each session (start of opening range).
Stock Data Table█ OVERVIEW
This is a table that shows some information about stocks. It is divided into four sections:
1) Correlation
2) Shares
3) Daily Data
4) Extended Session Data
The table is completely modular, which means you can add or remove each element from the settings menu, and it will automatically rearrange its spaces.
It is also highly customizable, to the extent that you can change almost any color, remove or change titles, invert section rows, and much more.
1) Correlation
The script checks if the stock is listed on NASDAQ, and if so, uses the QQQ (Nasdaq-100 ETF) as the reference index in the first cell; otherwise, it uses the SPY (S&P 500 ETF). The length of the correlation is shown in the second cell. The table then displays the correlation between the reference index and the other index, and the correlation between the reference index and the stock.
To make it easier to interpret the correlation values, each row's last cell is color-coded with a gradient to highlight the type of correlation, and the direction of the gradient can be customized.
The correlation coefficient is a statistical measure that quantifies the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables, indicating how changes in one variable are associated with changes in the other variable, so it can be used to identify patterns and trends.
If you are interested in correlation, I suggest taking a look at my dedicated indicator:
2) Shares
This feature provides you with quick access to key information about shares and market capitalization.
On one row, you can view the total shares outstanding and the market capitalization for the fiscal year or the quarterly year. The total shares outstanding represents the total number of shares of the stock that have been issued and are currently outstanding, regardless of whether they are held by insiders or public investors. The market capitalization is a widely used measure of the company's value as determined by the stock market, calculated by multiplying its current stock price with the total number of outstanding shares.
The other row shows the float, which is the number of shares of a company that are available for public trading, and the corresponding free-float market cap, calculated by multiplying the company's current stock price with the float. Because Pine Script does not allow retrieving information about quarterly year float, you can view the float and the free-float market cap of the fiscal year only. The data can be displayed at all times or only when the difference between the total shares outstanding and the float is significant enough to result in a difference between the market cap and free-float market cap.
The classification for market cap and free-float market cap is set in this way:
Mega Cap: $200 billion or more
Large Cap: between $10 billion and $200 billion
Mid Cap: between $2 billion and $10 billion
Small Cap: between $300 million and $2 billion
Micro Cap: less than $300 million
Penny Stocks: less than $5 (customizable)
Comparing the free-float market cap to the market cap can provide insights into the liquidity of a stock. In fact, if the float is relatively small compared to the total shares outstanding, it may be more difficult to find buyers or sellers, which could lead to increased volatility. On the other hand, a larger float indicates that the stock is more liquid and may be easier to trade, potentially resulting in lower volatility. However, market conditions can change quickly and significantly, especially for intraday traders, and the free-float can also change as insiders or other large shareholders buy or sell shares. Therefore, comparing the data of the fiscal year with that of the quarterly year may not provide the most up-to-date and accurate information for making trading decisions. This limitation can be mitigated by combining those data with other indicators and tools, such as technical analysis or news events, to gain a better understand of the stock's performance and potential trading opportunities.
3) Daily Data
This section is available on daily charts only due to the lack of accuracy of real-time daily data on other time frames. Here, you can view the Average Daily Volume (ADV) over a preferred time range (20 days by default), and the Daily Change, which represents the percentage difference between the closing price on two consecutive trading days.
ADV is useful in measuring the stock's volatility, as it provides an indication of how much trading activity there is in it. Generally speaking, stocks with higher trading volume tend to be less volatile than stocks with lower trading volume. High trading volume means there are more buyers and sellers actively trading the stock, which makes it easier for investors to buy and sell shares at fair prices. This increased liquidity can help to stabilize the stock price, reducing the potential for large swings in either direction. On the other hand, stocks with lower trading volume may experience greater volatility, as there are fewer buyers and sellers actively trading the stock. This can result in larger price swings, as it may be more difficult for investors to buy or sell shares at fair prices.
The daily percentage change can provide an indication of the stock's volatility, with larger values indicating greater volatility and risk. It can also be compared to that of a benchmark such an index or other stocks in the same sector, helping to determine whether the stock is outperforming or underperforming relative to them.
4) Extended Session Data
The fourth section is available on intraday charts only. This section provides two pieces of information: the Extended Session Change and the Pre-Market Volume.
The Extended Session Change indicates the percentage difference between the previous day's closing price and the latest price in the extended session. This gives you the extent and the direction of the price gap that occurred during extended trading hours.
The Pre-Market Volume shows the sum of all shares traded during the pre-market session. This can be helpful in understanding how much interest the stock gained before the market opened.
By default, the two rows will be visible at all times. They will stop updating after the end of their respective time range, and resume updating when it starts again. However, you can choose to automatically hide them outside of their time ranges.
Both the extended session and pre-market time ranges can be customized. Please note that if you select time ranges outside of the regular market session (as set by default), you must enable the extended session to view the corresponding rows.
█ GENERAL NOTES
• Total Shares Outstanding, Float, Average Daily Volume and Pre-Market Volume cells use a customizable color system based on two thresholds, to help you quickly identify whether the value is "too low/acceptable/too high" or "too low/not enough high/acceptable".
• If you cannot see certain data, that simply means it is not available.
