RTH Standard Deviation+ Indicator

Overview
The RTH Standard Deviation+ (RTH SD+) indicator is a versatile tool designed for traders to visualize key price levels based on the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) session.
It calculates and displays the high, low, equilibrium (midpoint), and standard deviation-based levels derived from the RTH session's price range.
This indicator is ideal for day traders and swing traders looking to identify potential support, resistance, and breakout zones.

Features
Customizable Session Window: Define the RTH session based on your preferred time window and timezone.
Key Price Levels: Displays high, low, equilibrium, 25%/75% quartile levels, and standard deviation levels (±0.5, ±1.0, ±1.33, ±1.66, ±2.0, and optional extended levels up to ±4.0).
Visual Elements: Includes horizontal lines, labels, boxes, and vertical lines to highlight key levels and session boundaries.
Flexible Styling: Customize line styles, colors, thicknesses, and visibility for all elements.
Extended Levels: Optional display of additional standard deviation levels (±2.25, ±2.33, ±2.5, ±2.66, ±2.75, ±3.0, ±3.25, ±3.33, ±3.5, ±3.66, ±3.75, ±4.0).
Deviation Boxes: Visualize specific standard deviation ranges (±0.1, ±1.33/1.66, ±2.33/2.66, ±3.33/3.66) with customizable colors.

Inputs
Session Window: Set the RTH session time (default: 06:00–09:00).
Timezone: Select the appropriate timezone (default: UTC-4).
Label Offset: Adjust the horizontal offset for price level labels (default: 5 bars).
Line Offset: Set the length of horizontal lines extending from the session end (default: 20 bars).
Show SD Levels: Toggle visibility of standard deviation lines (±0.5, ±1.0, ±1.33, ±1.66, ±2.0).
Show SD Labels: Enable or disable labels for standard deviation levels.
Show SD Boxes: Display shaded boxes for specific standard deviation ranges (e.g., ±1.33/1.66).
Show ±0.1 Dev Boxes: Highlight smaller deviation ranges (±0.1) with boxes.
Vertical Line: Toggle a vertical line at the session end, with customizable color, style, and thickness.
High/Low, Equilibrium, 25%/75%, ±0.1 Dev, ±1.33/1.66: Toggle visibility and customize colors, styles, and thicknesses for these levels.
Extended Levels: Enable additional standard deviation levels (e.g., ±2.25, ±2.5, etc.) for advanced analysis.

How It Works
Session Tracking: The indicator identifies the user-defined RTH session based on the specified time window and timezone.
It tracks the high, low, and equilibrium (midpoint) of the session's price action.
Price Range Calculation: At the session's end, the indicator calculates the price range (high - low) and uses it to compute standard deviation levels relative to the high, low, or equilibrium.

Level Visualization:
High/Low Lines: Display the session's high and low prices as horizontal lines, extended beyond the session end.
Equilibrium Line: Shows the midpoint of the session range.
Quartile Lines: Plots 25% and 75% levels within the session range.
Standard Deviation Lines: Displays levels at ±0.5, ±1.0, ±1.33, ±1.66, and ±2.0 standard deviations, with optional extended levels up to ±4.0.
Deviation Boxes: Shaded boxes highlight specific ranges (e.g., ±1.33/1.66) for quick reference.
±0.1 Deviation Lines/Boxes: Optional smaller deviation levels for precise analysis.
Dynamic Updates: During the session, high and low lines update in real-time. At session end, all levels are finalized and extended forward for post-session analysis.
Clearing Mechanism: When a new session begins, previous drawings are cleared to avoid clutter.

Usage
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicator menu.

Configure Settings:
Adjust the session window and timezone to match your market (e.g., 09:30–16:00 UTC-4 for US equities RTH).
Customize visibility, colors, styles, and thicknesses to suit your chart preferences.
Enable extended levels for deeper analysis or disable them for simplicity.

Interpret Levels:
High/Low: Act as potential support/resistance or breakout levels.
Equilibrium: Represents the session's midpoint, often a pivot point.
25%/75% Quartiles: Indicate intermediate levels within the session range.
Standard Deviation Levels: Highlight statistically significant price zones for potential reversals or breakouts.
Boxes: Emphasize key zones for quick visual reference.

Trading Application: Use levels to identify entry/exit points, set stop-losses, or gauge market volatility.
For example, ±1.0 standard deviation levels often act as strong support/resistance, while ±2.0 levels may indicate overextension.

Notes
Ensure the session window aligns with the market’s trading hours for accurate calculations.
The indicator is designed for intraday and post-session analysis but can be adapted for other timeframes.
Use in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for comprehensive decision-making.
Extended levels (±2.25 and beyond) are disabled by default to reduce chart clutter but can be enabled for specific strategies.
