Enhanced London Session SMC SetupEnhanced London Session SMC Setup Indicator
This Pine Script-based indicator is designed for traders focusing on the London trading session, leveraging smart money concepts (SMC) to identify potential trading opportunities in the GBP/USD currency pair. The script uses multiple techniques such as Order Block Detection, Imbalance (Fair Value Gap) Analysis, Change of Character (CHoCH) detection, and Fibonacci retracement levels to aid in market structure analysis, providing a well-rounded approach to trade setups.
Features:
London Session Highlight:
The indicator visually marks the London trading session (from 08:00 AM to 04:00 PM UTC) on the chart using a blue background, signaling when the high-volume, high-impulse moves tend to occur, helping traders focus their analysis on this key session.
Order Block Detection:
Identifies significant impulse moves that may form order blocks (supply and demand zones). Order blocks are areas where institutions have executed large orders, often leading to price reversals or continuation. The indicator plots the high and low of these order blocks, providing key levels to monitor for potential entries.
Imbalance (Fair Value Gap) Detection:
Detects and highlights price imbalances or fair value gaps (FVG) where the market has moved too quickly, creating a gap in price action. These areas are often revisited by price, offering potential trade opportunities. The upper and lower bounds of the imbalance are visually marked for easy reference.
Change of Character (CHoCH) Detection:
This feature identifies potential trend reversals by detecting significant changes in market character. When the price action shifts from bullish to bearish or vice versa, a CHoCH signal is triggered, and the corresponding level is marked on the chart. This can help traders catch trend reversals at key levels.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
The script calculates and plots the key Fibonacci retracement levels (0.618 and 0.786 by default) based on the highest and lowest points over a user-defined swing lookback period. These levels are commonly used by traders to identify potential pullback zones where price may reverse or find support/resistance.
Directional Bias Based on Market Structure:
The indicator provides a market structure analysis by comparing the current highs and lows to the previous periods' highs and lows. This helps in identifying whether the market is in a bullish or bearish state, providing a clear directional bias for trade setups.
Alerts:
The indicator comes with built-in alert conditions to notify the trader when an order block, imbalance, CHoCH, or other significant price action event is detected, ensuring timely action can be taken.
Ideal Usage:
Timeframe: Suitable for intraday trading, particularly focusing on the London session (08:00 AM to 04:00 PM UTC).
Currency Pair: Specifically designed for GBP/USD but can be adapted to other pairs with similar market behavior.
Trading Strategy: Best used in conjunction with a price action strategy, focusing on the key levels identified (order blocks, FVG, CHoCH) and using Fibonacci retracement levels for precision entries.
Target Audience: Ideal for traders who follow smart money concepts (SMC) and are looking for a structured approach to identify high-probability setups during the London session.

10 Minute Futures Session Open RangeInspired by SamRecio's 30sec OR script.
The 10 minute Opening Range (OR) dynamically identifies and visualizes the opening range of a trading session within the first 10 minutes after the market opens at 9:30 AM EST, concluding at 4:00 PM EST, reflecting the typical trading hours for U.S. stock exchanges. This indicator is particularly useful for strategies that rely on the initial market momentum and direction established during the early moments of the trading session.
Upon activation, the indicator calculates the highest (orHigh) and lowest (orLow) price levels reached during the first 10 minutes of the trading session, marking these levels with green (for the high) and red (for the low) lines directly on the chart overlay. Additionally, it computes and plots a midpoint (midPoint) between these high and low levels, displayed as a blue line, offering a visual reference for the median of the opening range.
The calculations are reset daily to ensure the indicator accurately reflects the opening range for each new trading session. By doing so, it avoids carrying over data from previous days, maintaining relevance and precision for day traders and those utilizing short-term trading strategies. The indicator also incorporates timezone adjustments to align with the America/New_York timezone, ensuring that the opening range is accurately captured regardless of the user's local timezone.
This tool is invaluable for traders looking to capitalize on breakout or reversion strategies around the opening range, providing clear visual cues for significant price levels established at the start of the trading session. By focusing on the first 10 minutes of trading, it caters to a specific segment of the market that believes the initial movements can set the tone for the rest of the day's trading activity.
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.

Intraday predictive High Volume Activity sessions [BEA]Idea:
This indicator is designed to know the high traded volume sessions in advance before the day starts.
The predictive volume bars will be plotted in advance once a new trading session starts.
Logic Used:
The basic idea is to store each bar volume / Volume MA data for the selected time. So, the first bar of each data is stored for all selected historical days.
Once the data is stored, I am taking average of each bar data for the selected Historical days.
How to Use:
This gives me an idea of the volume behavior throughout the days based on historical data. So I decide my time of trading for that specific times sessions where the traded volume activity is high.
The bars which are more than the Moving average ( Highlighted Volume bars plotted in future ) is the time session to focus.
Designed only for intraday timeframes.
Here in the image, you can see the session in advance for high traded volume activity.
Try it test it , let me know if it can be improved further.
Have a happy trading.

AltSessionHello World
It’s no secret that trading sessions play a massive role in market movement and liquidity. We can clearly see in the image about how important identifying international trading hours are for a trader.
The Asian session starts around 1am GMT and often has a bearish bias through this session lasting for a few hours, after which Frankfurt and London traders start to come online and can often reverse the Asian sentiment.
The London session is the best session to trade traditionally starting around 7am GMT before the American traders come online and reverse market once again.
We have designed this indicator to help identify different trading hours easily with a background shade on the chart and also high/lows of the training session, as these levels can often be revisited.
We hope you find this indicator useful and please feel free to drop a comment if you have any updates you wish to be made or any future indicator script ideas, thank you.
Kill Zone SessionsKill Zone Sessions
Kill Zone Sessions is an indicator that allows you to highlight customizable backgrounds for specified time zones. The problem with 99% of all session indicators on TradingView is that they only plot real-time, sure this is good when you look back on the charts with loaded data. Looks pretty I guess, but having it in real-time with no forward plotting abilities is useless. It provides a trader with no preparedness or edge to trade within that time frame.
The solution is to plot the next 24 hours in advanced of the current time, that way you will always see when the sessions are in relation to your current time.
This will highlight the time zone 24 hours in advance so you always know when the session are and can plan TA around that!

Volume+ (RVOL By Time of Day)This script is an enhanced volume indicator.
It calculates relative volume (RVOL) based on the average volume at that time of day (rather than using a moving average).
For example, using this indicator you can see today’s volume during the first 5-minute candle of the market open compared to the previous day’s volume at the market open. Or you can see today’s volume at the market close during the last 15-minute candle compared to the average of the past 20 days of volume at the market close.
Due to the different quantity of candlesticks in a session between Stocks and Forex/Crypto, I separated those markets into separate settings, making this an all-in-one volume indicator that works on all markets.
Settings:
Stocks
If you set the lookback period to 1 on the 5-minute chart and look at the 9:30am candle for a stock, then the current volume bar will show you what today’s volume is compared to yesterday’s 9:30am 5-minute candle.
If you set the lookback period to 15, then the current volume bar will show you what today’s volume is compared to the average of the last 15 days of 9:30am 5-minute candles.
Max Lookback: 64 Sessions
Stocks
This setting is for traders who want to use this indicator on a timeframe lower than the 5-minute chart.
Due to limitations in how many historical bars PineScript can reference, referencing 1-minute and 3-minute bars requires a lot more historical data so I separated the two to allow the 5-minute+ timeframes to have a longer lookback period.
Max Lookback: 12 Sessions
Forex/Crypto
When you set the script to Forex/Crypto, it does the same thing for stocks but calculates based on a 24-hour period.
So if you set the lookback period to 1 on the 1-hour chart and look at the 11:00am candle for a currency pair, then the current volume bar will show you what today’s volume is compared to yesterday’s 11:00am 1-hour candle.
If you set the lookback period to 10, then the current volume bar will show you what today’s volume is compared to the average of the last 10 days of 11:00am 1-hour candles.
Max Lookback: 17 Sessions
What Doesn’t It Work On?
Because I had to manually calculate how many volume candles to look back per timeframe to get the previous session’s candle, I had to hard-code the math in this script.
That means that this indicator will only work on 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 45m, 1h, 2h, 3h, 4h, Daily and Weekly timeframes. If you try to use it on any other timeframe it will revert to a regular volume indicator.
Why Is It Useful?
Similar to volume profile by price, this gives you a volume profile by time in a way that the default volume indicator does not.
For example, you can use this to determine when a stock has a particularly strong opening drive, or when a currency pair has a weak fake-out leading up to the London open, or for general confirmation on trading signals with time-specific volume information to work with.
Colors
The purple line and the faint gray bar is the RVOL value.
The blue number is the percentage of the current volume bar relative to RVOL.
There are four different bar color settings:
Heatmap – Changes color to be brighter based on higher RVOL
Price – Changes color based on price action (like the default TradingView volume indicator)
Traffic – Changes color based on RVOL percentages (for fast visual cues)
Trigger – Changes color only when the specified alert conditions are met
Heatmap:
Traffic:
Trigger:
Price:
Heatmap:
Turns very bright green at 2.0 RVOL
Turns light green at 1.0 RVOL
Turns normal green at 0.75 RVOL
Turns medium green at 0.5 RVOL
Turns very dark green at 0.25 RVOL
Is gray otherwise.
Price:
Turns red if the price action candle closed bearish.
Turns green if the price action candle closed bullish.
Traffic:
Turns red if RVOL is between 1.0 and 1.5.
Turns orange if RVOL is between 1.5 and 2.0.
Turns dark green if RVOL is between 2.0 and 3.0.
Turns bright green if RVOL is above 3.0.
Is gray otherwise.
Trigger:
Turns teal if any of the given alert conditions in the user settings are met.
Alerts
Alerts are optional. You have to set them like any other indicator, by creating a new alert and selecting this indicator.
If you leave the "Alert At RVOL %" setting at 0, then alerts will only be triggered if the current candle exceeds the 1.0 (100%) RVOL level.
If you change the "Alert At RVOL %" setting then alerts will be triggered if the RVOL percentage (blue number) exceeds your given value. The blue number is a percentage of the average, so if it’s at 0.5, then it’s 50% of the average.
Notes
- This indicator only works with regular time bars. It will not work with range, tick, renko etc.
- This script has lookback limitations due to restrictions on how many historical bars PineScript can reference. The lookback limit varies based on the market type you choose. The more bars required for calculation the lower the lookback limit.
- If you use it on the Daily timeframe the lookback period will count as 1 week. If you use it on the Weekly timeframe the lookback period will count as 1 month. So a Lookback of 3 on the Daily would be 3 weeks of averages, a Lookback of 5 on the Weekly would be 5 months of averages (for that Day of Week or Week number).
- Big thanks to @tb12345 for the idea and for helping to field-testing the indicator!
Asia Session Range @mrxautrades🗺️ Asia Session Range by @mrxautrades
🚨 This script is closed-source because it implements a custom logic for session range visualization, deviation projections, and adaptive display based on chart timeframe. No other public script offers this exact functionality.

DM Support / Resistance (USA Session)This indicator is specifically designed for use on the 4-hour time frame and helps traders identify key support and resistance levels during the USA trading session (9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern Time). The indicator calculates important price levels to assist in making well-informed entry and exit decisions, particularly for those focusing on swing trades or longer-term intraday strategies. It also includes a feature to skip setups when relevant fundamental news is scheduled, ensuring you avoid trading during periods of high volatility.
Key Features:
Support and Resistance Levels (S1 & R1):
The indicator calculates and displays Support 1 (S1) and Resistance 1 (R1) levels, which act as key barriers for price action and help traders spot potential reversal or breakout zones on the chart.
Pivot Point (PP):
The Pivot Point (PP) is calculated as the average of the previous period's high, low, and close. It serves as a central reference point for market direction, allowing traders to evaluate whether the market is in a bullish or bearish trend.
Market Bias:
The Bias is shown as a histogram that helps traders assess the strength of the market trend. A positive bias suggests bullish sentiment, while a negative bias signals bearish conditions. This can be used to confirm the overall trend direction.
4-Hour Time Frame:
The indicator is optimized for the 4-hour time frame, making it suitable for traders looking for swing trades or those who wish to capture longer-term trends within the USA session. The key support, resistance, and pivot levels are recalculated dynamically to reflect price action over 4-hour periods.
Dynamic Plotting and Alerts:
Support and resistance levels are drawn as dashed horizontal lines, updating in real-time to reflect the most current market data during the USA session. Alerts can be set for significant price movements crossing these levels.
Stop-Loss Strategy Based on 15-Minute Time Frame:
A unique feature of this indicator is its stop-loss strategy, which uses 15-minute time frame support and resistance levels. When a long or short entry is triggered on the 4-hour chart, traders should place their stop-loss according to the relevant 15-minute support or resistance level.
If the price closes above the 15-minute support for a long entry, or closes below the 15-minute resistance for a short entry, it signals the need to exit or adjust your position based on these levels.
Fundamental News Filter:
To avoid unnecessary risk, the indicator incorporates a fundamental news filter. If there is relevant news scheduled during the USA session, such as high-impact economic data or central bank announcements, the indicator will skip the setup for that period. This prevents traders from entering positions during times of elevated volatility caused by news events, which could result in unpredictable price movements.
How to Use:
Long Entry: When the Bias is positive and the price breaks above Support 1 (S1), this signals a potential bullish move. Consider entering a long position at this point.
Stop-Loss Strategy: Set your stop-loss at the respective 15-minute support level. If the price closes below this level, it could signal a reversal, prompting you to exit the trade.
Short Entry: When the Bias is negative and the price breaks below Resistance 1 (R1), this signals a potential bearish move. Enter a short position at this point.
Stop-Loss Strategy: Set your stop-loss at the respective 15-minute resistance level. If the price closes above this level, exit the short trade as it could indicate a bullish reversal.
Pivot Point (PP): The Pivot Point serves as a reference level to gauge potential price reversals. A move above the PP suggests a bullish bias, while trading below the PP suggests a bearish outlook.
Bias Histogram: The Bias Histogram helps confirm trend direction. A positive bias confirms long positions, while a negative bias reinforces short trades.
Avoid Trading During High-Impact News: If there is significant economic news or fundamental events scheduled during the USA session, the indicator will automatically skip any potential setup. This feature ensures you avoid entering trades that might be affected by unexpected news-driven volatility, keeping your trading strategy safer and more reliable.
Why Use This Indicator:
The 4-hour time frame is ideal for traders who prefer swing trading or those looking to capture longer-term trends in a structured manner. This indicator provides crucial insights into market direction, support/resistance levels, and potential entry/exit points.
The stop-loss management based on the 15-minute support and resistance levels helps traders protect their positions from sudden price reversals, ensuring more precise risk management.
The fundamental news filter is particularly useful for avoidance of high-risk periods. By skipping setups during high-impact news events, traders can avoid entering trades when price volatility could be unpredictable.
Overall, this indicator is a powerful tool for traders who want to make data-driven decisions based on technical analysis while ensuring that their positions are managed responsibly and avoiding news-driven risk.
Kviateq - Session Opening RangesThis indicator plots the opening range for each of the market sessions.
Users can chose the length of the opening range, as well as change the time for each of the sessions.
This script is based on opening range breakout strategies, which entail taking a long/short depending on which way the price breaks out.
To trade it, we wait for the session opening range to print, and then we enter upon a candle close.
It's meant to be used on lower timeframes, ideally one hour or lower.
It can be used by itself, but it works even better in combination with other indicators, like moving averages.

This script calculates the performance of an instrument for different sessions.
Session inputs can be updated to study performance of
- Morning vs Afternoon vs Evening
- Pre-Market vs Market vs Post-Market (provided the data feed supports pre and post market)
- Overnight vs Intraday
Three session inputs are provided to tweak the session range
Performance is calculated as session close / session open - 1
Session timeframes can be set for various countries. Make sure the session timeframe aligns with the Candle open/close for the timeframe you choose. Some examples below
US Markets: 0930-1130 1130-1430 1430-1630 Timeframe 1 hour
India Markets: 0915-1030 1030-1415 1415-15:30 Timeframe 75min
Market Profile with Past SessionsThis script plots market profiles that show the amount of time price has remained at a particular level during past sessions, often referred to as "time price opportunity".
TV user @LonesomeTheBlue created the original Market Profile indicator on which this script is based. This version makes minor changes to the automatic timeframes, and to show historic market profiles and points of control.
The market profile drawing begins at the START of the relevant session being profiled and extends to the right. There is a checkbox in the options that will plot the market profile at the END of the relevant session, if desired.
If you want to view the market profiles for shorter or longer sessions, use the drop down menu to take the Higher Time Frame setting off "Auto", and instead select a specific time interval that is HIGHER than the timeframe your chart is showing.
The market profile and points of control can be used to identify areas likely to serve as potential support or resistance, as well areas where price is likely to retest when it is ranging.

matrixx Global Sessions + Good/Premium Spread ZonesSimple (enough) Script that allows you to visualize the major trading sessions, with some QoL stuff, Includes a "Monday Open" bar for reference when zooming out.
By default no one 'session' is turned on; instead, we have;
Good Zone - where spread tends to close up enough for (me) to trade in the 1-minute timezones
Premium Zone - where the tightest spreads tend to happen and I (you?) can get more aggressive with Stop Losses, and moment-to-moment trade accuracy.
The Monday Open - for reference.
You are able to go into the settings and turn these on and off at will, making any combination of 'zones' you prefer, and can colour code them, as well.
Points of Difference;
You can turn on and off any group or set of sessions for an overview;
Additionally, this is coded so that if there is a "Daylight Saving" or other localized timezone shift, it should be reflected correcty, as timezones are calculated based on each sessions' data, not arbitrarily with +/- as most of the other scripts that do similar to this one.
Monday Open
you can toggle sessions, or instead toggle the 'off hour' zones, at will
End-of-Session ProbabilityThis indicator estimates the probability that the market will finish the session above a specified target price. It blends a statistical probability model with directional bias and optional morning momentum weighting to help traders gauge end-of-day market expectations.
Key Features:
• Statistical Probability Model:
Uses a normal distribution (with a custom normal CDF approximation) scaled by the square-root-of-time rule. The indicator dynamically adjusts the standard deviation for the remaining session time to compute a z‑score and ultimately the probability that the session close exceeds the target.
• Directional Bias via Daily HullMA (Exponential):
A daily Hull Moving Average (calculated using an exponential method) is used as a big-picture trend indicator. The model allows you to select your bias method—either by comparing the current price to the daily HullMA (Price method) or by using the HullMA’s slope (Slope method). A drift multiplier scales this bias, which then shifts the mean used in the probability calculations.
• Optional Morning Momentum Weight:
For traders who believe that early session moves provide useful clues about the day’s momentum, you can enable an optional weighting. The indicator captures the percentage change from the morning open (within a user-defined time window) and adjusts the expected move accordingly. A multiplier lets you control the strength of this adjustment.
• Visual Outputs:
The indicator plots quantile lines (approximately the 25%, 50%, and 75% levels) for the expected price distribution at session end. An abbreviated on-chart label displays key information:
• Target: The target price (current price plus a user-defined offset)
• Prob Above: The probability (in percentage) that the session close will exceed the target price
• Time: The time remaining in the session (in minutes)
How to Use:
1. Set Your Parameters:
• Expected Session Move: Input your estimated standard deviation for the full-session move in price units.

High & Low Of Custom Session - Breakout True Open [cognyto]This indicator is based on the High & Low Of Custom Session - OpeningRange Breakout (Expo) created by Zeiierman.
It adds new functionality and enhances existing settings, targeting ES, NQ, and YM:
Manages session defaults to 12:00 to 13:00
New true opening fully customizable (default 13:00)
Manages timeframe visualization (default 15m and below)
Manages session draw length until the end of the current session (default NY)
Manages previous sessions, allowing the to be hidden
Improves timezone selection (default NY)
Following the strategy called Paradox detailed by DayTradingRauf, it works with indices like ES, NQ, and YM.
The rules consider three possible profiles:
First
AM session as consolidation (08:00-12:00)
Lunch hour range as consolidation (less than 100 points)
PM session breaking either side of the session range
Second
AM session trending lower (08:00-12:00)
Lunch hour range as consolidation (less than 100 points)
PM session trending higher
Third
AM session trending higher (08:00-12:00)
Lunch hour range as consolidation (less than 100 points)
PM session trending lower
After the session ends, the opening price at 13:00 is automatically drawn as it is a key point for the entry strategy.
The strategy can be monitored using a 5-minute or 15-minute timeframe as follows:
- Wait for a liquidity hunt (either the high or low of the lunch session range or AM is taken).
- If liquidity is taken, switch to the 1-minute timeframe and wait for a CISD (change in the state of delivery), where the price closes below an OB, or consider a breaker block or iFVG to enter the trade.
- Bullish entries should happen below the opening price at 13:00, and bearish entries should happen above.
- Consider a 1:2 reward ratio. However, runners can target the opposite side of the range that was not yet taken.

Daily Session Windows background highlight indicatorIn intraday studies of stock indexes and Forex I have this weird habit of highlighting premarket, core session, lunch break and extended session with different backgrounds. If done by hand, this is tedious work that has to be repeated daily.
I think this feature should be built-in in TradingView. But it isn't.
For a few months now, I have been using this tiny indicator that does precisely that job. It saved me literally hours of focus time and mistakes. I have decided to revamp it and release it. I'm sure it can be useful to others.
Features:
Background color highlighting for premarket , core session , lunch hour and extended session of the trading day.
Session timing preset to match US session, but can be customized.
Can be enabled or disabled on a day of the week basis, including week-end.
Timezone is selectable, matches the chart's instrument but can be set independently to track a different timezone.
Not affected by the timezone you decided to assign to the chat's time scale.
Ready for stock indexes, but can be used to highlight Forex sessions too.
