Session Top Bars — Equities Sessions (Asia / London / US) — MelbA minimal, non-obstructive session overlay that draws thin top bars for the Asia, London, and US equity sessions on any chart and timeframe. Designed to stay out of the way while giving instant session context—perfect for crypto, indices, futures, and stocks.
Default sessions (AEDT / Australia-Melbourne):
Asia: 10:00 → 17:45
London: 18:00 → 23:30
US: 23:00 → 07:00
(Weekends on by default for crypto; turn off for equities.)
Why it’s different
Top-only bands (no heavy background shading) so price action stays readable.
Asset-agnostic: works on any symbol/candlestick.
Adaptive top placement: hugs the top of the visible price area without distorting autoscale.
Session labels appear once at each session start, right on the strip (optional).
Inputs
Timezone: choose your clock (default Australia/Melbourne).
Show weekends: on for crypto, off for stocks.
Intraday-only: hide the overlay on 1D+ if you prefer.
Session windows: edit HHMM-HHMM for Asia / UK / US.
Colors & thickness: tweak gap from top, band thickness, and label size.
Tips
If the strip feels a touch low/high on your layout, nudge Gap below chart top or Band thickness.
To reduce small shifts when new extremes print, increase Recent range length (bars).
Use cases
Quickly spot which session drove a move.
Align entries/exits to cash session volatility (e.g., NYSE open).
Compare behavior across assets with a unified session view.
Notes
Times reflect equity session focus in AEDT by default; adjust to your needs.
For FX-style windows, just edit the session inputs.

Session Range Breakouts With Targets [AlgoAlpha]⛓️💥Session Range Breakouts With Targets 🚀
Introducing the "Session Range Breakouts With Targets" indicator by AlgoAlpha, a powerful tool for traders to capitalize on session-based range breakouts and identify precise target zones using ATR-based calculations! Whether you trade the Asian, American, European, or Oceanic sessions, this script highlights key breakout levels and targets that adapt to market volatility, ensuring you're always prepared for those crucial price movements. 🕒📊
Session-based Trading : The indicator highlights session-specific ranges, offering clear breakouts for Asian, American, European, Oceanic, and even custom sessions 🌍.
Adaptive Volatility Zones : Uses ATR to determine dynamic zone widths, filtering out fakeouts and adjusting to market conditions ⚡.
Precise Take-Profit Targets : Set multiple levels of take-profits based on ATR multipliers, ensuring you can manage both aggressive and conservative trades 🎯.
Customizable Appearance : Tailor the look with customizable colors for session highlights and breakout zones to fit your chart style 🎨.
Alerts on Key Events : Built-in alert conditions for breakouts and take-profit hits, so you never miss a trading opportunity 🔔.
🚀 Quick Guide to Using the Indicator
🛠 Add the Indicator : Add the indicator to favorites by pressing the star icon. Choose your session (Asia, America, Europe, Oceana, or Custom) and adjust the ATR length, zone width multiplier, and target multipliers to suit your strategy.
📊 Analyze Breakouts : Watch for the indicator to plot upper and lower range boxes based on session highs and lows. Price breaking through these boxes will signal a potential entry.
📈 Monitor Targets : Track bullish and bearish targets as price moves, with up to three take-profit levels based on ATR multipliers.
🔔 Set Alerts : Enable alerts for session breakouts or when price hits your designated take-profit targets.
🔍 How It Works
This script operates by identifying session-specific ranges based on highs and lows from the beginning of the selected session (Asia, America, Europe, or others). After a user-defined wait period (default: 120 bars), it calculates the highest and lowest points and creates upper and lower zones using the Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to market volatility. If the price breaks above or below these zones, it is identified as a breakout, and the script dynamically calculates up to three take-profit targets for both bullish and bearish scenarios using an ATR multiplier. The indicator also includes alerts for breakouts and take-profit hits, providing real-time trading signals.

Session Candles NY #ffsjr"The candle bodies tell the story, wicks do the damage" by ICT
Based on ICT words, I created the sessions indicator, to facilitate the visualization of each session in candle format, with the most important points being the confluence of session openings and closings.
Usually I use to create support and resistances lines using candle sessions bodies and to draw sessions liquidities.
Use on 15 minutes chart and hide default TradingView candles.

Session ColorWith this indicator you can see :
The active zone in the market.
The dead zone in the market.
The purpose of this indicator is to trade the active zone.
Session Levels [odnac]This indicator plots the high and low levels of the three main trading sessions—Asia, Europe, and New York—along with the previous day’s high, low, and open. Each session’s time range can be customized using a UTC offset, and the indicator automatically tracks session highs and lows as price develops.
Functions:
Plots session highs and lows for Asia, Europe, and New York.
Shows previous day’s high, low, and open as reference levels.
Session times are fully configurable with hour and minute precision, including UTC offset adjustment.
Each session level is marked with both a line and a label for clarity.
Color customization for each session and previous day levels.
Designed for intraday timeframes (1–60 minutes).
Filter Condition:
When the filter option is enabled, the indicator adjusts how levels are drawn:
A session high above the current close is displayed as a solid line with a visible label.
Once price closes above that high, the line becomes dotted and dimmed, and the label also becomes less emphasized.
Similarly, a session low below the current close is displayed as a solid line and label.
If price closes below that low, the line switches to dotted and dimmed, with the label adjusted accordingly.
This behavior highlights only the most relevant levels for the current market position while still keeping breached levels visible in a subdued style, making it easier to spot active breakout or liquidity zones.

Session Stats + (dc_77)The "Session Stats + (dc_77)" indicator is a Pine Script tool designed to analyze trading sessions by plotting key price levels and statistical metrics. It displays a session's open price, manipulation levels (mean and median price movements), and distribution levels based on historical session data, with customizable time zones and session times. Users can toggle projections for 1-hour, 4-hour, daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes, showing average manipulation and distribution distances from the session open. Visual elements like shaded areas, labeled lines, and a vertical anchor line enhance readability, with options to filter data by day of the week. Alert conditions are included to notify users when the price crosses significant levels, such as the session open or manipulation/distribution thresholds.
Session Highs and Lows IndicatorThis indicator marks the high and low levels for key trading sessions, allowing traders to identify significant price zones across different markets. The default session times are defined in UTC and will automatically adjust to your local timezone:
- **London Session (07:00-09:00 UTC)**: Tracks intraday liquidity zones for potential highs/lows.
- **New York Session (12:00-14:00 UTC)**: Highlights volatility during market overlaps with Europe.
- **Asia Session (23:00-01:00 UTC)**: Confirms trend continuation and retracement opportunities.
- **New York Close Session (19:00-21:00 UTC)**: Focuses on reversals and breakout tests during global transitions.
The script dynamically updates session highs and lows with clear labels and dashed horizontal lines for better visualization. **Time ranges can be adjusted to suit your trading preferences.** This makes the indicator flexible and effective for liquidity hunting, trend trading, and breakout strategies.
Session OHLC [neo.|]OHLC/OLHC and Po3 (Power of Three by ICT) are both concepts describing a potential way to describe candle formations. While OHLC stands for Open High Low Close, what it usually refers to is the bearish scenario of how a candle first opens, manipulates until the high then creates the low before closing, and vice versa for OLHC. Po3 goes hand in hand with this concept as a way to sequentialize this candle formation into three separate cycles seen on a lower timeframe known as "Accumulation", "Manipulation", and "Distribution". Where the accumulation in the OHLC scenario would be the range created before the high, the manipulation being the high, and the distribution being the run downwards to the low.
What Session OHLC allows you to do, is to view these Po3 scenarios not through a higher timeframe candle perspective, but instead through a fully customizable session perspective. For example, you might want to see a specific period of time as a candle to simplify the process of identifying an AMD cycle, and all you would need to do is to enter that period of time in the indicator settings, and when you are at that period of time, you will see it being represented as a bar candle, with the session open, high, low, and close being annotated as O, H, L, and C.
This is especially useful for when you want to track the manipulation before a session open, or track a specific time where there is more volume in the market, allowing you to enter trades prior to when a distribution phase will begin.
Currently, you are able to select up to 4 different sessions that will appear on your chart while the session is active, however it is a good idea for the session times you choose not to overlap as the drawings will overlap as well. If you would like to monitor two times that happen to overlap, it is a good idea to add another instance of the indicator to your chart, and adjust the bar offset on one of them in the settings.
