Market Sessions
Market Sessions (Asian, London, NY, Pacific)
Summary
This indicator plots the main global market sessions (Asian, European, American, Pacific) as boxes on your chart, complete with dynamic high/low tracking.
It's an essential tool for intraday traders to track session-based volatility patterns and visualize key support/resistance levels (like the Asian Range) that often define price action for the rest of the day.
Who it’s for
Intraday traders, scalpers, and day traders who need to visualize market hours and session-based ranges. If your strategy depends on the London open, the New York close, or the Asian range, this script will map it out for you.
What it shows
Customizable Session Boxes: Four fully configurable boxes for the Asian, European (London), American (New York), and Pacific (Sydney) sessions.
Session High & Low: The script tracks and boxes the highest high and lowest low of each session, dynamically updating as the session progresses.
Session Labels: Clear labels (e.g., "AS", "EU") mark each session, anchored to the start time.
Key Features
Powerful Timezone Control: This is the core feature.
Use Exchange Timezone (Default): Simply enter session times (e.g., 8:00 for London) relative to the exchange's timezone (e.g., "NASDAQ" or "BINANCE").
Use UTC Offset: Uncheck the box and enter a UTC offset (e.g., +3 or -5). Now, all session times you enter are relative to that specific UTC offset. This gives you full control regardless of the chart you're on.
Fully Customizable: Toggle any session on/off.
Style Control: Change the fill color, border color, transparency, border width, and line style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) for each session individually.
Smart Labels: Labels stay anchored to the start of the session (no "sliding") and float just above the session high.
Why this helps
Track Volatility & Market Behavior: Visually identify the "personality" of each session. Some sessions might consistently produce powerful pumps or dumps, while others are prone to sideways "chop" or accumulation. This indicator helps you see these repeating patterns.
Find Key Support/Resistance Levels: The High and Low of a session (e.g., the Asian Range) often become critical support and resistance levels for the next session (e.g., London). This script makes it easy to spot these "session-to-session" S/R flips and reactions.
Aid Statistical Analysis: The script provides the core visual data for your statistical research. You can easily track how often the London session breaks the Asian high, or which session is most likely to reverse the trend, helping you build a robust trading plan.
Context is King: Instantly see which market is active, which are overlapping (like the high-volume London-NY overlap), and which have closed.
Quick setup
Go to Timezone Settings.
Decide how you want to enter times:
Easy (Default): Leave Use Exchange Timezone checked. Enter session times based on the chart's native exchange (e.g., for BTC/USDT on Binance, use UTC+0 times).
Manual (Pro): Uncheck Use Exchange Timezone. Enter your UTC Offset (e.g., +2 for Berlin). Now, enter all session times as they appear on the clock in Berlin.
Go to each session tab (Asian, European...) to enable/disable it and set the correct start/end hours and minutes.
Style the colors to match your chart theme.
