ICT Sessions [TradeWithRon]
ICT Sessions and killzones maps three intraday sessions on your chart (Asia, London, NY), tracks each session’s live high/low, draws optional session range boxes, and projects ICT OTE zones in real time—with granular styling, touch/mitigation logic, and alerting.
What it does
Live Session high/low tracking.
Historical session lines:
When a session ends, its final High/Low are preserved as tracked lines (with optional labels) for a configurable number of recent sessions.
Session boxes (ranges):
Draws a shaded box from session start to end that expands with new highs/lows. Limit how many recent boxes remain on chart.
ICT OTE zones (live):
For the currently active session, projects user-defined Fibonacci OTE levels (e.g., 61.8%, 70.5%, 78.6) between the session’s running high and low. Zones update tick-by-tick and can show labels. You can retain a history of recent sessions’ OTE levels.
Break visualization (mitigation):
Optionally color the bar when price breaks a stored session High/Low. You can:
Require a body close through the level (vs. any touch)
Auto-remove the line and/or label on touch/close
Use custom break colors per session and side (high/low)
Timestamps:
Add up to two recurring vertical timestamp markers (e.g., 08:00, 09:30), plus an opening horizontal marker (e.g., 09:30) with label that extends until the next occurrence.
Alerts:
Built-in alerts for:
Touch of Session 1/2/3 High/Low (Asia/London/NY)
Touch of OTE levels (per session)
Key inputs:
Time & Limits
Timezone (e.g., GMT-4)
Timeframe limit: hide all drawings on and above a specified TF
Sessions
Session windows (default):
Session 1 (Asia): 18:00–00:00
Session 2 (London): 00:00–06:00
Session 3 (NY): 08:00–12:00
How many to keep (lines/boxes)
Line width, colors, and label suffixes (“High”/“Low”)
Labels: toggle, text (“Asia”, “London”, “NY”), size, and colors
Boxes: toggle per session and background colors
ICT OTE Zones
Toggle per session (Asia/London/NY)
Levels (comma-separated %s, e.g., 61.8,70.5,78.6)
History: number of past sessions to retain
Opacity, line width/style, and label size
Custom label text per session (e.g., “Asia OTE”)
Break/Mitigation Behavior:
Enable Mitigated Candles (bar color on break)
Remove line on touch and/or remove label on touch
Require body close (vs. wick touch)
Custom break colors by session and side
Timestamps
Opening horizontal line (time, style, width, color, label text/size, drawing limit)
Two vertical timestamps (times, style, width, color, drawing limit)
Alerts
Master Enable Alerts
Per-session toggles for High/Low touches
OTE touch alerts
How it works (under the hood)
Detects session state via input.session() windows in the chosen timezone.
Live session High/Low lines and labels update in real time; on session end, final levels are stored with optional labels and tracked length.
OTE zones are live-computed from current session High↔Low and refreshed every bar; a compact rolling history is enforced.
Bar coloring reacts to break events (touch or body-close, per your setting) and uses session-specific colors when enabled.
Timestamp lines/labels are created on each occurrence and trimmed to a drawing limit for performance.
Tips:
To hide session lines but keep boxes, set line color opacity to 0.
Use Timeframe Limit to keep higher-TF charts clean.
Fine-tune OTE Levels and History to balance clarity and performance.
For stricter break logic, enable Require Body Close.
Note: The script reserves high limits for lines/labels/boxes to keep recent context visible while managing cleanup automatically. Adjust “Session Number” and “Number Of Boxes” to suit your workflow.

Killzones
ICT Killzones & Macros (v1.1.3)ICT Killzones & Macros (v1.1.3)
Screenshots / GIFs
Overview
ICT Killzones & Macros highlights intraday “windows” many traders track:
Killzones (KZ): broader sessions (e.g., Asia, London, New York), rendered as price-action boxes with header labels and an optional “next” preview header.
Macros: smaller windows within or outside KZs, each with a live high/low box, an optional “next” preview header, plus optional chart-height background bands.
You’ll see:
Borderless price-action boxes that track the highest high and lowest low inside each window.
Header boxes above each window with centered labels.
“Next” preview headers for the earliest upcoming Macro and Killzone.
Optional backgrounds for the current Macro (live) and the next Macro (future window).
High/Low lines for the current window, with optional extensions that continue after the window ends until price crosses or the trading day rolls.
All times are interpreted in a configurable timezone (default America/New_York, DST-aware), while internal logic uses Unix time.
Features
5 Killzones & 8 Macros out of the box (fully configurable).
Session strings in HHMM-HHMM (supports cross-midnight, e.g., 1900-0200).
Next previews: shows the earliest upcoming enabled Macro/KZ (clock-robust).
Macro backgrounds:
Current macro → chart-height band from start to “now”.
Next macro → chart-height band from start to end (future).
High/Low lines:
Live H/L lines during the active window.
On close, optional extensions per side (Hi/Lo) stop on first touch or day roll; or static lines if extension is off.
Object hygiene:
Session retention cap so only the last N completed windows per Macro/KZ are kept.
Trim logic cleans boxes, headers, and any static lines.
Inputs (top-level)
Timezone (IANA, DST-aware): e.g., America/New_York (default).
Sessions to show (per window): Max number of completed windows retained for each Macro/KZ.

How it works
Windows: When a bar enters a session, we start tracking hi/lo, draw a price-action box, and position a header box above it (gap + height in ticks).
Next previews: For each enabled set (Macros/KZs), we compute the next window by clock (handles cross-midnight) and draw a centered header at current price across the future window.
Backgrounds:
Current macro: a chart-height box from start index to current bar.
Next macro: a chart-height box from next start to next end using xloc.bar_time.
High/Low lines: Live H/L lines update during the window. On close:
If Extend is OFF → draw static H/L lines across the window width.
If Extend is ON → spawn independent Hi & Lo extension lines that advance bar-by-bar and stop at price cross or day roll (tz-aware).
Tips
Keep Sessions to show modest on low timeframes to limit objects.
Use a per-symbol template for your preferred Macro/KZ setup.
DJ/Bonds FX can be set to exchange timezones instead of NY if you prefer.
Known limitations
Extension stop logic uses bar high/low overlap; on very large bars it may halt on the same bar as close (by design).
On extremely long lookbacks with many enabled windows, you may hit max_boxes_count/max_lines_count.
Performance guidance
Use on 1–15m timeframes for the best visual granularity.
Reduce enabled windows and “Sessions to show” if you hit object limits.
Changelog (short)
v1.1.3 — High/Low lines + per-side extensions; static lines on window close when extension is off.
v1.1.2 — Next Killzone preview header (clock-robust).
v1.1.0 — Defaults: 5 Killzones & 8 Macros; removed snap-to-killzone.
v1.0.0 — Independent Macro & KZ rendering.

Visual session mapping for higher-probability windows (New York, London, Tokyo/Asian, London Close). Anchored session ranges, labels, and optional dividers make it easy to spot session structure and historic range areas on any timeframe.
What it shows
Time-anchored session range boxes (High / Low per session) that stay locked to session candles.
Optional session name labels placed inside ranges.
Optional session transition markers (small plotshape markers at session start/end).
Optional daily divider line and weekday labels.
Timezone control: use exchange timezone or a custom UTC offset.
Key inputs
Enable/disable each session (A/B/C/D), set session name and session hours.
Toggle session range boxes, labels, and outlines.
Range area transparency control.
Choose whether to use Exchange timezone or a custom UTC offset.
Show/hide session dividers and daily divider.
Usage tips
To avoid rendering issues, pin the indicator to the right price scale in the indicator menu (Pin → Pinned to right scale). If the indicator is set to No scale (fullscreen) it may not render boxes/labels correctly.
Works well on all timeframes; ranges are calculated per-session based on bar timestamps.
If you want ranges to persist visually but reset stats each session, the indicator already stores last session high/low and draws boxes anchored by the session start time.
Limitations & notes
This indicator is a visual tool — not a signal generator. It does not open/close trades automatically.
Session ranges rely on bar timestamps — ensure your chart timezone is set correctly if comparing across exchanges.
Objects are created as chart drawings (boxes, labels) and may count toward TradingView's object limits on exceptionally active charts.
Disclaimer

Version & support
Pine Script v5.
If you or users see missing boxes/labels, first confirm the indicator is pinned to a price scale (recommended: right scale). If problems persist, tell me the symbol and timeframe and I’ll help troubleshoot.
ICT Essentials [LDT]ICT Essentials
Overview
ICT Essentials is an all-in-one trading utility built to create a natural and efficient workflow for ICT-based traders.
Every component has been designed to integrate seamlessly and update dynamically across timeframes.
The indicator focuses on clarity, performance and customization, allowing traders to tailor every part of their trading experience.
Equal Highs & Lows
This feature automatically detects and marks Equal Highs (EQH) and Equal Lows (EQL) with full control over visuals and behavior.
Users can customize line colors, widths, and styles, label size, color, background transparency and text offset.
The logic uses an optimized scanning and caching system that maintains smooth performance even on higher timeframes.
It provides a precise and adaptive way to identify structural liquidity points whilst keeping the chart clean and readable.
Killzones & Session Pivots
Plots the main trading sessions such as Asia, London and New York (AM, Lunch, PM) with full flexibility and styling options.
Each session can be enabled or disabled individually, with its own color, transparency and label preferences.
Session highs and lows are automatically tracked and plotted as pivots with extension modes like Until Mitigated or Past Mitigation.
This system gives traders the ability to organize market sessions exactly how they prefer whilst keeping the chart consistent and efficient.
Daily Pivots and Tier System
Alongside session pivots, the script tracks daily highs and lows to provide a broader structural view of price. These pivots are stored and displayed on the chart with their appearance updating automatically when price interacts with them.
The system includes a unique tier-based visibility filter that maintains a clean chart by preventing duplicate or overlapping pivots. Recent daily pivots are cached and compared to session pivots and when two levels fall within a defined proximity, the redundant one is automatically hidden. This creates a clear hierarchy of daily and session levels, keeping the most relevant structure visible whilst removing noise.
All aspects of the daily pivot system are fully customizable, including the number of tracked pivots, color, style settings and how mitigated levels are handled. The caching and filtering logic ensures smooth performance and a visually organized workspace even as the data updates in real time.
Key Times
Allows up to five custom key time markers such as the Midnight Open, 6:00 AM or 10:00 AM.
Each marker can be fully customized with its own text, color, line style and thickness.
This makes it simple to visualize key reaction points that align with each traders timing model.
Higher Timeframe Candles
Displays higher timeframe candles such as 1H, 4H or Daily directly on the active chart to provide context without switching views.
Users can customize body, wick and border colors, along with adding optional trace lines for the open, close, high and low and can also show the countdown timers for remaining candle time.
Adjustable spacing, positioning and label visibility makes the display blend naturally with any trading setup.
This module helps traders connect multiple timeframes visually in a clean and intuitive way.
Watermark
Adds a customizable watermark with title, subtitle and symbol or timeframe information.
Every element can be adjusted for color, size, transparency, alignment and position.
The result is a polished, professional chart layout that adapts to the user's personal style.
Optimization and Design
ICT Essentials is built for performance, using cached arrays and lightweight calculations to maintain responsiveness on all timeframes.
Each feature can be toggled individually to suit the traders focus or system performance.
The script delivers a fluid, customizable and highly optimized trading experience designed to feel natural and effortless in day-to-day use.

Micro Time Windows by Bryan RamirezRed = ICT xx:50 - xx:10 macro
Blue = xx:20 - xx:40 macro
Green = Bryan Ramirez Outliers
Tuesday, August 29, 2023, is when I figured out why xx:20 - xx:40, xx:11 - xx:19, and
xx:41 - xx:49 are agorithmic time windows. These time windows are called cron jobs, which command the algorithm to do a specific task, like go to liquidity or inefficiency, based on time.
On my Discord, I'll share more on how it was that I figured that out, but the first clue God gave me was ICT's comment, " The first 10 minutes of the hour and last 10 minutes of the hour are a macro."
ICT Time Based Liquidity Levels [Mariinus]Indicator Overview – Inspired by ICT Concepts
This indicator helps you spot where liquidity rests and where major price moves are likely to begin or end — giving you clarity for both entries and exits.
Inspired by the teachings of the Inner Circle Trader (ICT), this tool builds on his philosophies and principles that have reshaped how traders view price action. One of the most powerful lessons that stuck with me personally is his quote:
"Time & Price, where it is Time first and then Price”
Another fundamental concept that underpins this tool is the idea that:
"Price is constantly moving in cycles from Premium to Equilibrium, from Equilibrium to Discount from Discount back to Premium."
With these core ideas in mind, this indicator was developed to help traders who are already using an ICT-based framework and focus on Kill Zones and by this on Time Based Liquidity.
In addition to plotting Session Highs and Lows on your chart, the ICT Time Based Liquidity Levels indicator also includes derived levels that provide deeper market insight. These include the Equilibrium of the full Session Range (High to Low) as well as the Equilibrium of the Wicks – offering a more nuanced view of price balance and potential turning points, in line with ICT’s core concepts.
To make sure your chart is not cluttered with lines, you can select which levels to show – and more importantly – you can plot Session Candles next to your Chart. Unlike standard time-based candles (e.g. 4H candles), these are “true” Session Candles that reflect the actual OHLC of trading Sessions, making it easier and clearer to see how Sessions interact with each other.
Next to Intraday Highs and Lows, the indicator will also plot Daily and Weekly Liquidity Pools above and below the Market, giving you insights to where Price is most likely heading towards.
You can set Alerts that trigger whenever one of these key levels is tagged, so you stay focused without staring at the screen all day.
⚠️ Important Disclaimer:
This is not a standalone trading plan.
This is not a buy or sell signal generator.
Instead, this tool is designed to support traders who follow ICT principles by helping them identify higher-probability PD Arrays – the key levels where setups are more likely to occur. If your trading plan includes looking for specific PD Arrays and structural frameworks taught by ICT, then this indicator is a visual aid to refine and focus your attention on the areas where your framework has a higher probability of playing out.
⚙️ Explanation of the Settings
You can combine up to 6 Sessions to monitor their respective levels while operating on a lower timeframe. You can define the timings and a long and short naming of those Sessions.
In the Days Section you can Set a lookback period to control how far back you want to calculate levels. Next to that you can select which Daily and or Weekly Levels you want to have shown on your Charts together with choosing their coloring, style and width.
In the Candles Section you can define how the Session Candles will look like which are plotted next to your Chart. When you have multiple Days of Session Candles it can come in handy to mirror image the Candles which will plot the Candles from right to left instead of the default left to right. In addition you can control how far the distance is between the Candles and your chart, the distance between Candles and Days and the thickness of those Candles. Next you can show or hide the Equilibrium of the total Session Range and the Equilibrium of the Wicks.
In the Lines Section you can specify which Session Levels you want to see on your Chart together with choosing their coloring, style and width.
In the Labels Section you can specify which Labels you want to show and how you want to show them.
In the Openings Section you can specify to show the Midnight Open and or Weekly Open. In addition you can add a divider to be able to distinguish between multiple Days or Weeks.
In the Alert Section you can specify for which Sessions you want to get notified when Key Levels are tagged. After setting this up, you need to set an alert via the Tradingview Alert function to really activate the Alert Function. Be aware that when you change your Alert setup, you need to setup the Tradingview Alert function again.
💡 Example Use Cases
These examples are for educational purposes only. This tool is not financial advice and should always be used in conjunction with your own trading plan—whether it involves Fair Value Gaps, Order Blocks, or a custom combination of ICT-based elements.
Killzones SMT + IFVG detectorKillzones SMT + IFVG Detector
Summary
This strategy implements a specific intraday workflow inspired by ICT-style concepts.
It combines:
Killzone session levels (recording untouched highs/lows)
SMT divergence between NQ and ES (exclusive sweep logic)
IFVG confirmation (3-bar imbalance + width filter + inversion guard)
and an optional smart exit engine
The components are not simply mashed together: they interact in sequence.
A setup only confirms if all conditions line up (time window → untouched level sweep → divergence → valid IFVG → confirmation candle → risk filter).
Workflow
Killzones & session levels
Tracks highs/lows inside default killzones (19:00–23:00, 01:00–04:00, 08:30–10:00, 11:00–12:00, 12:30–15:00, chart timezone).
Stores untouched levels forward; sweeps trigger candidate signals.
SMT divergence (exclusive sweep)
Bullish SMT : one index sweeps its low while the other remains above its session low.
Bearish SMT : one index sweeps its high while the other remains below its session high.
Detection supports “Sweep (Cross)” or “Exact Tick.”
Session IDs are tracked so once a side has fired, later re-touches can’t re-trigger .
IFVG confirmation
Locks the first valid 3-bar IFVG after SMT.
Confirmation requires a candle close beyond the IFVG boundary in the direction of the close.
IFVGs must meet a minimum width filter (default 1.0 point).
Inversion guard: ignores IFVGs already inverted before SMT.
Optional “re-lock” keeps tracking the latest IFVG until confirmation/expiry.
Smart exit engine
Initial stop from opposite wick (+ buffer).
Fixed TP (default 40 points).
Dynamic stop escalation at progress thresholds (BE → 50% → 80% of target).
Safety gates
Weekend lockout (Fri 16:40 → Sun 18:00).
Same-bar sweep of high & low cancels setups.
Max initial stop filter skips oversized setups.
Optional cooldown bars.
Alerts
SMT Bullish/Bearish : divergence detected this bar.
Confirm Long/Short : IFVG confirmation triggered.
Default Strategy Properties (used in screenshots/backtests)
Initial capital: $25,000
Order size: 1 contract
Commission: $1.25 per contract per side
Slippage: 2 ticks
Backtest window: Jun 16, 2025 – Sep 14, 2025
These settings are intentionally conservative. If you change them, your results will differ.
How to use
Apply on an NQ or ES futures chart (1–5 min).
Choose your killzones and detection mode.
Select confirmation symbol (NQ, ES, or “Sweeper”).
Enable/disable IFVG re-lock.
Review signals and use alerts for automation if desired.
Limitations
Strict filters reduce trade count; extend backtest window for more samples.
Works best on NQ/ES; not validated elsewhere.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
This is an educational tool ; not financial advice.

Custom Time Range HighlightThis indicator highlights specific time ranges on your TradingView chart with customizable background colors and labels, making it easier to identify key trading sessions and ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Killzones. It is designed for traders who want to mark important market hours, such as major sessions (Asia, New York, London) or high-volatility Killzones, with full control over activation, timing, colors, and transparency.
Features
Customizable Time Ranges: Define up to 9 different time ranges, including one custom range, three major market sessions (Asia, New York, London), and five ICT Killzones (Asia, NY Open, NY Close, London Open, London Close).
Individual Activation: Enable or disable each time range independently via checkboxes in the settings. By default, only the ICT Killzones are active.
Custom Colors and Transparency: Set unique background and label colors for each range, with adjustable transparency for both.
Labeled Time Ranges: Each active range is marked with a customizable label at the start of the period, displayed above the chart for easy identification.
Priority Handling: If multiple ranges overlap, the range with the higher number (e.g., Asia Killzone over Custom Range) determines the background color.
CET Time Zone: Time ranges are based on Central European Time (CET, Europe/Vienna). Adjust the hours and minutes to match your trading needs.
Settings
The indicator settings are organized into three groups for clarity:
Custom Range: A flexible range (default: 15:30–18:00 CET) for user-defined periods.
Session - Asia, NY, London: Major market sessions (Asia: 01:00–10:00, New York: 14:00–23:00, London: 09:00–18:00 CET).
ICT Killzones - Asia, NY, London: High-volatility periods (NY Open: 13:00–16:00, NY Close: 20:00–23:00, London Open: 08:00–11:00, London Close: 16:00–18:00, Asia: 02:00–05:00 CET).
For each range, you can:
Toggle activation (default: only ICT Killzones enabled).
Adjust start and end times (hours and minutes).
Customize the label text.
Choose background and label colors with transparency levels (0–100).
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Open the settings to enable/disable specific ranges, adjust their times, or customize colors and labels.
The chart will highlight active time ranges with the selected background colors and display labels at the start of each range.
Use it to focus on key trading periods, such as ICT Killzones for high-probability setups or major sessions for market analysis.
Notes
Ensure your time ranges align with your trading instrument’s session times.
Overlapping ranges prioritize higher-numbered ranges (e.g., Asia Killzone overrides London Session).
Ideal for day traders, scalpers, or ICT strategy followers who need clear visual cues for specific market hours.

ICT Macro Zone Boxes w/ Individual H/L Tracking v3.1ICT Macro Zones (Grey Box Version
This indicator dynamically highlights key intraday time-based macro sessions using a clean, minimalistic grey box overlay, helping traders align with institutional trading cycles. Inspired by ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts, it tracks real-time highs and lows for each session and optionally extends the zone box after the session ends — making it a precision tool for intraday setups, order flow analysis, and macro-level liquidity sweeps.
### 🔍 **What It Does**
- Plots **six predefined macro sessions** used in Smart Money Concepts:
- AM Macro (09:50–10:10)
- London Close (10:50–11:10)
- Lunch Macro (11:30–13:30)
- PM Macro (14:50–15:10)
- London SB (03:00–04:00)
- PM SB (15:00–16:00)
- Each zone:
- **Tracks high and low dynamically** throughout the session.
- **Draws a consistent grey shaded box** to visualize price boundaries.
- **Displays a label** at the first bar of the session (optional).
- **Optionally extends** the box to the right after the session closes.
### 🧠 **How It Works**
- Uses Pine Script arrays to define each session’s time window, label, and color.
- Detects session entry using `time()` within a New York timezone context.
- High/Low values are updated per bar inside the session window.
- Once a session ends, the box is optionally closed and fixed in place.
- All visual zones use a standardized grey tone for clarity and consistency across charts.
### 🛠️ **Settings**
- **Shade Zone High→Low:** Enable/disable the grey macro box.
- **Extend Box After Session:** Keep the zone visible after it ends.
- **Show Entry Label:** Display a label at the start of each session.
### 🎯 **Why This Script is Unique**
Unlike basic session markers or colored backgrounds, this tool:
- Focuses on **macro moments of liquidity and reversal**, not just open/close times.
- Uses **per-session logic** to individually track price behavior inside key time windows.
- Supports **real-time high/low tracking and clean zone drawing**, ideal for Smart Money and ICT-style strategies.
Perfect — based on your list, here's a **bundle-style description** that not only explains the function of each script but also shows how they **work together** in a Smart Money/ICT workflow. This kind of cross-script explanation is exactly what TradingView wants to see to justify closed-source mashups or interdependent tools.

First FVG Custom Time Range
**Purpose:**
Plots the **first Fair Value Gap (FVG)** that appears within a defined session (e.g., NY Kill Zone, Custom range). Includes optional retest alerts.
**Best Used With:**
- Use with **ICT Macro Zones (Grey Box Version)** to isolate FVGs during high-probability times like AM Macro or PM SB.
- Combine with **Liquidity Levels** to assess whether FVGs form near swing points or liquidity voids.
---
ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs and OB s
**Purpose:**
Detects **liquidity grabs** (stop hunts above/below swing highs/lows) and **bullish/bearish order blocks**. Includes optional Fibonacci OTE levels for sniper entries.
**Best Used With:**
- Use with **ICT Turtle Soup (Reversal)** for confirmation after a liquidity grab.
- Combine with **Macro Zones** to catch order blocks forming inside timed macro windows.
- Match with **Smart Swing Levels** to confirm structure breaks before entry.
ICT SMC Liquidity Levels (Smart Swing Lows)
**Purpose:**
Automatically marks swing highs/lows based on user-defined lookbacks. Tracks whether those levels have been breached or respected.
**Best Used With:**
- Combine with **Turtle Soup** to detect if a swing level was swept, then reversed.
- Use with **Liquidity Grabs** to confirm a grab occurred at a meaningful structural point.
- Align with **Macro Zones** to understand when liquidity events occur within macro session timing.
ICT Turtle Soup (Liquidity Reversal)
**Purpose:**
Implements the classic ICT Turtle Soup model. Looks for swing failure and quick reversals after a liquidity sweep — ideal for catching traps.
Best Used With:
- Confirm with **Liquidity Grabs + OBs** to identify institutional activity at the reversal point.
- Use **Liquidity Levels** to ensure the reversal is happening at valid previous swing highs/lows.
- Amplify probability when pattern appears during **Macro Zones** or near the **First FVG**.
ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2
**Purpose:**
An enhanced, multi-layer version of the Turtle Soup setup that includes built-in liquidity checks, OTE levels, structure validation, and customizable visual output.
**Best Used With:**
- Use as an **entry signal generator** when other indicators (e.g., OBs, liquidity grabs) are aligned.
- Pair with **Macro Zones** for high-precision timing.
- Combine with **First FVG** to anticipate price rebalancing before explosive moves.
---
## 🧠 Workflow Example:
1. **Start with Macro Zones** to focus only on institutional trading windows.
2. Look for **Liquidity Grabs or Swing Sweeps** around key highs/lows.
3. Check for a **Turtle Soup Reversal** or **Order Block Reaction** near that level.
4. Confirm confluence with a **Fair Value Gap**.
5. Execute using the **OTE level** from the Liquidity Grabs + OB script.

Quarterly Theory ICT 02 [TradingFinder] True Open Session 90 Min🔵 Introduction
The Quarterly Theory ICT indicator is an advanced analytical system built on ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts and fractal time. It divides time into four quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4), and is designed based on the consistent repetition of these phases across all trading timeframes (annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and even shorter trading sessions).
Each cycle consists of four distinct phases: the first phase (Q1) is the Accumulation phase, characterized by price consolidation; the second phase (Q2), known as Manipulation or Judas Swing, is marked by initial false movements indicating a potential shift; the third phase (Q3) is Distribution, where price volatility peaks; and the fourth phase (Q4) is Continuation/Reversal, determining whether the previous trend continues or reverses.
🔵 How to Use
The central concept of this strategy is the "True Open," which refers to the actual starting point of each time cycle. The True Open is typically defined at the beginning of the second phase (Q2) of each cycle. Prices trading above or below the True Open serve as a benchmark for predicting the market's potential direction and guiding trading decisions.
The practical application of the Quarterly Theory strategy relies on accurately identifying True Open points across various timeframes.
True Open points are defined as follows :
Yearly Cycle :
Q1: January, February, March
Q2: April, May, June (True Open: April Monthly Open)
Q3: July, August, September
Q4: October, November, December
Monthly Cycle :
Q1: First Monday of the month
Q2: Second Monday of the month (True Open: Daily Candle Open price on the second Monday)
Q3: Third Monday of the month
Q4: Fourth Monday of the month
Weekly Cycle :
Q1: Monday
Q2: Tuesday (True Open: Daily Candle Open Price on Tuesday)
Q3: Wednesday
Q4: Thursday
Daily Cycle :
Q1: 18:00 - 00:00 (Asian session)
Q2: 00:00 - 06:00 (True Open: Start of London Session)
Q3: 06:00 - 12:00 (NY AM)
Q4: 12:00 - 18:00 (NY PM)
90 Min Asian Session :
Q1: 18:00 - 19:30
Q2: 19:30 - 21:00 (True Open at 19:30)
Q3: 21:00 - 22:30
Q4: 22:30 - 00:00
90 Min London Session :
Q1: 00:00 - 01:30
Q2: 01:30 - 03:00 (True Open at 01:30)
Q3: 03:00 - 04:30
Q4: 04:30 - 06:00
90 Min New York AM Session :
Q1: 06:00 - 07:30
Q2: 07:30 - 09:00 (True Open at 07:30)
Q3: 09:00 - 10:30
Q4: 10:30 - 12:00
90 Min New York PM Session :
Q1: 12:00 - 13:30
Q2: 13:30 - 15:00 (True Open at 13:30)
Q3: 15:00 - 16:30
Q4: 16:30 - 18:00
Micro Cycle (22.5-Minute Quarters) : Each 90-minute quarter is further divided into four 22.5-minute sub-segments (Micro Sessions).
True Opens in these sessions are defined as follows :
Asian Micro Session :
True Session Open : 19:30 - 19:52:30
London Micro Session :
T rue Session Open : 01:30 - 01:52:30
New York AM Micro Session :
True Session Open : 07:30 - 07:52:30
New York PM Micro Session :
True Session Open : 13:30 - 13:52:30
By accurately identifying these True Open points across various timeframes, traders can effectively forecast the market direction, analyze price movements in detail, and optimize their trading positions. Prices trading above or below these key levels serve as critical benchmarks for determining market direction and making informed trading decisions.
🔵 Setting
Show True Range : Enable or disable the display of the True Range on the chart, including the option to customize the color.
Extend True Range Line : Choose how to extend the True Range line on the chart, with the following options:
None: No line extension
Right: Extend the line to the right
Left: Extend the line to the left
Both: Extend the line in both directions (left and right)
Show Table : Determines whether the table—which summarizes the phases (Q1 to Q4)—is displayed.
Show More Info : Adds additional details to the table, such as the name of the phase (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, or Continuation/Reversal) or further specifics about each cycle.
🔵 Conclusion
The Quarterly Theory ICT, by dividing time into four distinct quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4) and emphasizing the concept of the True Open, provides a structured and repeatable framework for analyzing price action across multiple time frames.
The consistent repetition of phases—Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal—allows traders to effectively identify recurring price patterns and critical market turning points. Utilizing the True Open as a benchmark, traders can more accurately determine potential directional bias, optimize trade entries and exits, and manage risk effectively.
By incorporating principles of ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and fractal time, this strategy enhances market forecasting accuracy across annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and shorter trading sessions. This systematic approach helps traders gain deeper insight into market structure and confidently execute informed trading decisions.
