Devs Cumulative Delta candles with Moving Average and DivergenceDELTA = BUY Volume – SELL Volumes
Delta = Positive => Aggressiveness on the Buy side
Delta = Negative => Aggressiveness on the Sell side
If delta is greater than 0 you have more buying than selling pressure. If delta is less than 0, you have more selling than buying pressure.
When there is more Buying than Selling (Delta=Positive), the price candle is Green and when there is more Selling than Buying (Delta=Negative), the price candle is Red. We use delta to understand the relationship between buying or selling pressure and price.
Let’s imagine a price bar that reached the low for the day but delta was actually positive and the bar closed higher than it opened.
In simple terms we can describe this as:
Price made a new low
The bar closed higher
Delta demonstrated more buying than selling : Volume delta is a key metric to understand when making trading decisions based on volume and order flow. However, on its own it can be too much information to interpret quickly when trading in a volatile market.
What are Delta Bars?
Delta Bars is a candlestick representation of Delta. In other words, it has an Open, High (also called Delta Max), Low (also called Delta Min) and Close point in every candle (1min, 5min, 30min etc.)
The Delta Open in every candle is always 0
The Delta Close is the cumulative BUY less cumulative SELL at the close if the candle
The Delta Max is the maximum value of Delta during the candle session (lowest Delta Max possible = 0)
The Delta Min is the minimum value of Delta during the candle session (highest Delta Min possible = 0) The Delta bars are uncorrelated to the Tick Multiplier of the symbol.
Generally you would expect Price to move UP when Delta is positive and Price to move DOWN when Delta is negative. So what happens when the above rule is not followed. We have Divergence
Divergence:
Any two parameters that should be in sync (Price and Delta in this case) towards supporting a particular move (Up or Down) but are in reality not (in sync) form a Divergence
Cumulative volume delta takes the delta values for every bar and successively adds them together to visually provide as seen in the chart.
While volume delta is great for comparing delta bar to bar, cumulative volume delta is useful when determining buying or selling pressure at different price levels such as swing highs or lows. I just gave you a details regarding delta and delta bars.
What details would you see in the indicator??
When you apply this indicator on the chart, you will find the CD(Cumulative delta) candles, which move up and down the way price moves in a chart. Moreover, in case of a divergence, you will find a change in colour of delta candles. If the price is still green but the delta is negative, you will find a bullish divergence, marked with Yellow colour and if the price is red and you have a positive delta, you will have a bearish divergence, marked with blue coloured delta candle. Usually it has been seen that a repeated divergence generally depicts end of a trend or slow down of a trend.
Moreover, I have placed 2 moving averages in the script which you can customize as per your needs. I prefer 20 and 50 day MA for better accuracy as most reversals happen at 20 and 50 day MA.
This indicator works in almost all index, stocks, currencies excepting few where the volume past is invisible. This indicator purely works taking the buying and selling volume into consideration. Sometimes when you change the timeframe in chart, you may have to manually adjust for the display in chart.

ICT Index Futures Vertical LinesLearning to trade is complicated enough, so to make the process it little less daunting, I decided to create something helpful.
This indicator relieves you of drawing the same lines and levels over and over each trading day.
It also provides key price levels for you to watch when the trading session starts.
This project is inspired by the ICT 2022 Mentorship.
This indicator was designed and tested to practice and trade the CME Index Futures like Nasdaq, S&P500 and the DOW.
The concepts by ICT are known to work on other markets like Crypto, but I haven't tested that so use at your own risk.
Features:
When a new trading day starts, the following lipstick is put on the chart:
Vertical lines:
- Globex (Overnight) Session Start @17.00
- New York Midnight @ 00:00
- New York AM Session Start @ 08.30
- CME Open @ 09.30
- New York Lunch Start @12.00
- New York PM Session Start @13.00
- New York PM Session End @ 16.30
Important levels:
- Globex (Overnight) Session Opening price
- Globex (Overnight) Session High
- Globex (Overnight) Session Low
- New York Mignight Opening Price
Additional features:
- Shows the day of the week at the bottom for your convenience
- London Killzone Vertical lines
- London Killzone Highlight
- NY Lunch No-Trade-Zone Highlight
- Important levels have a small label to show their meaning and price
- Almost everything is customizable: colors, line types, times, etc
- Customizable timezone setting in case you don't want to work on ICT's recommended timezone (New York UTC-4)
- Toggle to Show only Today's drawings on the chart. You can choose to display all chart lipstick from almost a month of trading data to do your research. Ideal if you want to determine the daily profiles for example.

MultiSessions traderglobal.topEste indicador de sesiones está diseñado para traders intradía que desean visualizar con precisión la actividad y la volatilidad característica de cada mercado. Basado en Pine Script v5 y optimizado para la zona horaria “America/New_York”, divide el día en sub-sesiones configurables y resalta sus rangos de precio en tiempo real. En particular, incorpora tres bloques para New York (NY1, NY2, NY3), dos para Londres (LON1, LON2), dos para Tokio (TKO1, TKO2) y mantiene Sídney como sesión opcional. Cada bloque puede activarse o desactivarse de forma independiente y cuenta con su propio color ajustable, lo que permite construir mapas visuales claros para estrategias basadas en horario, solapamientos y micro-estructuras de mercado.
El panel de inputs incluye la opción “Activate High/Low View”. Cuando está activada, el indicador calcula de manera incremental el mínimo y máximo de cada sub-sesión y sombrea el área entre ambos con fill, proporcionando una referencia inmediata del rango intrasesión (útil para medir compresión/expansión y posibles rompimientos). Cuando está desactivada, emplea un simple bgcolor por bloque, ideal para traders que prefieren un gráfico más limpio y solo desean distinguir visualmente los tramos horarios.
La lógica central utiliza dos funciones auxiliares: is_session(sess), que detecta si la vela actual pertenece a un tramo horario concreto, e is_newbar(sess), que determina el inicio de una nueva barra de referencia según la resolución elegida (D, W o M). Gracias a esta combinación, en cada sub-sesión el indicador reinicia sus contadores de alto y bajo al comenzar el período y los actualiza vela a vela mientras el bloque siga activo. Este enfoque evita mezclas de datos entre sesiones y asegura que el rango que se muestra corresponda estrictamente al segmento horario configurado.
Los horarios por defecto están pensados para Forex y contemplan casos que cruzan medianoche (por ejemplo, Tokio 2 y Sídney). Pine Script admite rangos como 2200-0200; no obstante, si tu bróker o la zona horaria del gráfico generan un sombreado parcial, basta con dividir el tramo en dos: 2200-2359 y 0000-0200. Asimismo, cada input.session incluye el patrón :1234567 para habilitar los siete días; puedes restringir días según tu operativa.
En cuanto al uso práctico, el indicador facilita identificar: (1) la estructura del rango por sub-sesión (útil para estrategias de breakout/mean-reversion), (2) los solapamientos entre Londres y New York, donde suele concentrarse la liquidez, y (3) períodos de menor volatilidad (tramos tardíos de Asia o previos a noticias). El color independiente por bloque te permite codificar visualmente la importancia o tu plan de trading (por ejemplo, tonos más intensos en ventanas de alta probabilidad).
Finalmente, su diseño modular hace sencilla la personalización: puedes ajustar colores, activar/desactivar bloques, cambiar horarios y modificar la resolución de reseteo del rango. Como posible mejora, se pueden añadir alertas de ruptura de máximos/mínimos de sub-sesión o etiquetas con la altura del rango (pips) al cierre. Este indicador no sustituye el juicio del trader ni constituye recomendación financiera, pero ofrece una base visual robusta para integrar el factor tiempo en la toma de decisiones.
This sessions indicator is built for intraday traders who want a precise, time-aware view of market activity and typical volatility patterns across the day. Written in Pine Script v5 and optimized for the “America/New_York” timezone, it divides the trading day into configurable sub-sessions and highlights their price ranges in real time. Specifically, it provides three blocks for New York (NY1, NY2, NY3), two for London (LON1, LON2), two for Tokyo (TKO1, TKO2), and keeps Sydney as an optional session. Each block can be enabled or disabled independently and comes with its own adjustable color, letting you build clear visual maps for time-based strategies, overlaps, and microstructure nuances.
In the inputs panel you’ll find the “Activate High/Low View” option. When enabled, the indicator incrementally computes each sub-session’s low and high and shades the area between them with fill, giving you an immediate reference to the intra-session range (useful for gauging compression/expansion and potential breakouts). When disabled, it switches to a clean bgcolor background by block—ideal if you prefer a minimal chart and simply want to distinguish time windows at a glance.
The core logic relies on two helper functions: is_session(sess), which detects whether the current bar falls within a given time window, and is_newbar(sess), which identifies the start of a new reference bar according to your chosen reset resolution (D, W, or M). With this combination, each sub-session resets its high/low at the beginning of the period and updates them bar by bar while the block remains active. This prevents cross-contamination between sessions and ensures the range you see belongs strictly to the configured segment.
Default hours are suited to Forex and include segments that cross midnight (e.g., Tokyo 2 and Sydney). Pine Script supports ranges like 2200-0200; however, if your broker or chart timezone causes partial shading, simply split the segment into two: 2200-2359 and 0000-0200. Each input.session uses the :1234567 suffix to enable all seven days; you can easily restrict days to match your plan.
Practically speaking, the indicator helps you identify: (1) range structure by sub-session (great for breakout or mean-reversion frameworks), (2) overlaps between London and New York, where liquidity and directional moves often concentrate, and (3) lower-volatility windows (late Asia or pre-news lulls). Independent colors per block let you visually encode priority or your trading plan (for example, richer tones in high-probability windows).
Thanks to its modular design, customization is straightforward: adjust colors, toggle blocks, change hours, and tweak the range-reset resolution to suit your routine. As a natural extension, you can add alerts for sub-session high/low breakouts or labels that display the range height (in pips) at session close. While no indicator replaces trader judgment or constitutes financial advice, this tool offers a robust visual foundation for incorporating the time factor directly into your decision-making, helping you contextualize price action within the rhythm of global trading sessions.
Bearish Breakaway Dual Session-FVGInspired 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).
See the Figure below as an example:
Bearish consolidated FVG & Bearish breakaway candle
Begins when a new intraday high is printed. After that, the indicator searches for the 1st bearish breakaway candle, which must have its high below the low of the intraday high 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) high 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:
See this figure as an example
1. Avoid Trading in Wrong Direction
• No Bearish breakaway = No Short trade.
• Prevents the temptation to countertrade in strong uptrends.
2. Catch the Trend Reversal
• When a bearish breakaway appears after an intraday high, 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/below the breakaway candle’s
range. Weak if it breaks above.
3. Higher Timeframe Confirmation
• 1m can give false reversals if new lows keep forming.
• 5m often provides cleaner signals and avoids premature reversals.
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.
Failed example:
Usually happen if you are countering a strong trend too early and using 1m time frame
Last Mention:
The indicator is only used for bearish side trading.
Prev D/W/M + Asia & London Levels [Oeditrades]Prev D/W/M + Asia & London Levels
Author: Oeditrades
Platform: Pine Script® v6
What it does
Plots only the most recent, fully completed:
Previous Day / Week / Month highs & lows
Asia and London session highs & lows
Levels are drawn as true horizontal lines from the period/session start and extended to the right for easy confluence reading. The script is non-repainting.
How it works
Prev Day/Week/Month: Uses completed HTF candles (high / low ) so values are fixed for the entire next period.
Sessions (NY time): Asia (default 20:00–03:00) and London (default 03:00–08:00) are tracked in America/New_York time. High/low are locked when the session ends, and the line is anchored at that session’s start.
Inputs & customization
Visibility: toggle Previous Day/Week/Month, Asia, London, and labels.
Colors: highs default red; lows default green (user-configurable). Session highs default pink, lows aqua (also editable).
Style: line style (solid/dotted/dashed) and width.
Sessions: editable time windows for Asia and London (still interpreted in New York time).
Disclaimer: optional on-chart disclaimer panel with editable text.
Notes
Works on any timeframe. For intraday charts, the HTF values remain constant until the next HTF bar completes.
If your market’s overnight hours differ, simply adjust the session windows in Inputs.
Lines intentionally show only the latest completed period/session to keep charts clean.
Use cases
Quick view of PDH/PDL, PWH/PWL, PMH/PML for bias and liquidity.
Intraday planning around Asia/London range breaks, retests, and overlaps with prior levels.

Breakout + Retest StrategyThe Breakout + Retest Strategy is a proven price action approach used by professional traders to catch high-probability market moves after key levels are broken. This strategy aims to enter the market after confirmation — reducing false breakouts and improving entry accuracy.
🔍 Strategy Logic:
Identify a Key Support or Resistance Level
These could be recent swing highs/lows, consolidation zones, or session highs.
Wait for a Clean Breakout
Price must decisively break above resistance or below support with strong momentum.
Watch for the Retest
After the breakout, wait for the price to pull back to the broken level (now flipped support/resistance).
Enter on Retest Confirmation
Look for signs like rejection wicks, bullish/bearish engulfing candles, or strong volume on the retest.
Set Risk-Managed Stops and Targets
Stop loss goes below (for long) or above (for short) the retested level.
Target is usually set at a 1:2 or higher risk-to-reward ratio, or based on structure.
✅ Why It Works:
Filters out fake breakouts
Uses market structure and liquidity traps to your advantage
Combines both momentum and confirmation
⚙️ Best Timeframes:
15-minute to 1-hour for intraday setups
4-hour and daily for swing trades
📊 Ideal for:
Futures (NQ, ES, Gold)
Forex pairs
Crypto

OBR 15min Session Opening Range Breakout + Volume Trend DeltaQuick Overview
This Pine Script plots the opening range for London and New York sessions, highlights breakout levels, draws previous session pivots, and offers a live volume delta table for trend confirmation.
Session Opening Range
- Captures the high/low of the first 15 minutes (configurable) for both London & NY sessions.
- Fills the range area with adjustable semi‑transparent colors.
- Optional alerts fire on breakout above the high or below the low.
Previous Session Levels

Session VWAPS [QuantVue]The Session VWAPS indicator is a designed for traders to enhance their trading analysis by incorporating Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) anchored to custom-defined trading sessions.
This indicator automatically plots VWAPs at three critical points of a user defined session:
🔹session start
🔹session high
🔹session low
Additionally, it provides the option to display the VWAPs from previous sessions, offering a look at potential areas of support and resistance.
Anchored VWAP, or Anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price, is a technical analysis tool used to determine the average price of a stock weighted by volume, starting from a specific point in time chosen by the analyst.
Unlike traditional VWAP, which starts at the beginning of the trading session, the anchored VWAP allows traders to select any point on the chart, such as a significant event, price low, high, or a breakout, to begin the calculation.
VWAP incorporates price and volume in a weighted average and can be used to identify areas of support and resistance on the chart.
Indicator Features:
Custom Session Definition:
Users can define their own trading sessions by specifying start and end times, allowing for tailored analysis according to individual trading strategies or market hours.
Anchored VWAP at Three Key Points:
🔹Session Start VWAP: This VWAP is anchored at the start of the defined session.
🔹Session High VWAP: Anchored at the highest price point within the session.
🔹Session Low VWAP: Anchored at the lowest price point within the session.
Previous Session VWAPs:
The indicator can display VWAPs from the previous session, allowing traders to spot potential areas of support and resistance.
