A library that provides utilities for working with trading sessions and time-based conditions. Functions include session checks, date range checks, day-of-week matching, and session high/low calculations for daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly timeframes. This library streamlines time-related calculations and enhances time-based strategies and indicators.
Library "time_and_session" Provides functions for checking time and session-based conditions and retrieving session-specific high and low values.
