Session Start & Day BackgroundThis indicator visually enhances your TradingView charts by highlighting the start of each new trading day and coloring the background based on the day of the week.
The first candle of each new trading day is marked in gray for better session separation.
The background color changes based on the current day of the week, making it easier to recognize market patterns and trends at a glance.
Works across all markets including Forex, Stocks, and Crypto.
Designed to improve chart readability and market structure visualization.
Ideal for traders who want a clearer overview of daily sessions and better differentiation between trading days! 🚀
Session High and Low IndicatorThis script is meant for stocks that have a pre-market session. It is meant to be used on the 1 min time frame. This script will draw a green line at the high of pre-market, and a red line at the low of pre-market and extend these lines across the regular session day
This makes it easy to see if price action during regular market has broken above pre-market high or broken below pre-market low.
The high/low skips any quick spikes in price action (similar to what happens at 8:30 am every day).
Session VolumeThis script tracks and displays 30-minute volume segments during the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) session. It allows traders to visually compare each time block’s volume today vs. the same block from the previous day, helping spot early signs of strength, weakness, or divergence.
Features:
Tracks 13 blocks from 9:30 AM to 4:15 PM ET.
Compares today's volume against historical volume from the same time block yesterday.
Highlights percentage changes per block.
Summary row totals show overall volume trend today vs. yesterday.
This tool is useful for discretionary traders, auction market theorists, and anyone who incorporates market-generated information into their decision-making.
Sessions Lines & BackgroundDisplay Asia, London & New York sessions as background colors or lines (for a cleaner chart).
Session TPO Market ProfileIntroduction
Wikipedia: A Market Profile is an intra-day charting technique (price vertical, time/activity horizontal) devised by J. Peter Steidlmayer, a trader at the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), ca 1959-1985. Steidlmayer was seeking a way to determine and to evaluate market value as it developed in the day time frame. The concept was to display price on a vertical axis against time on the horizontal, and the ensuing graphic generally is a bell shape--fatter at the middle prices, with activity trailing off and volume diminished at the extreme higher and lower prices. In this structure he recognized the 'normal', Gaussian distribution he had been introduced to in college statistics.
Important : The market profile tool is designed to be used on the 30min timeframe, however, you can modify its parameters and use it on lower timeframes (15/10/5min)
This indicators displays the following information
Session open
TPO
Value area calculation zone
POC
Highlight of Single prints
Session High/Low
The current price (TPO Profile is often used isolated without any candlesticks on it)
Parameters
Session beginning configuration (not coded with a session input yet)
Number of candles to use for calculation (default 13 for a single session)
Extend yesterday's levels (VAH/VAL/POC)
Show/Hide Market profile calculation area (background color)
Bars number (number of rows that will be used to draw the profile)
Show/Hide TPO's
TPO Colors customization (For in/out of VA, VAL/VAH/POC/High/Low levels and single prints)
Show/Hide High/Low levels
Show/Hide VAL/VAH/POC Levels as lines
Enable/Disable Single prints highlighting
Value area size (as percent)
Show/Hide current price (corresponding to a line scaled on the "close" price)
Additional Notes
Each session is drawn when the day is over
To use as much space as possible, TPO's are not directly drawn on the area of their calculation (which can be confusing if you use candlesticks directly over it)
This script will probably be updated in the future (especially concerning its implementation which is a bit spaghetti coded for now) .
If you have interesting suggestions about new features that are usual within market profile tools and missing from this script , don't hesitate to suggest it.
Session Times + Strenght M7This Script Aims to Define Session Times, and Rank those. It can help to adjust your Strategy to Higher Volatility, if you choose to use the Session Volatility and Strenght Index from 1-10. Your timezone on Trading View should be NY. You can customize the Following in Settings: Weight of Volatility & Narrative Regarding the ranking + Transparency of the Lines. SP:SPX FX:EURUSD OANDA:EURUSD CAPITALCOM:USDJPY AMEX:SPY NASDAQ:QQQ TVC:DXY CAPITALCOM:USDJPY CME_MINI:NQ1! OANDA:XAUUSD FX:GBPUSD
Session backtest toolWith this tool you can easily backtest your trading strategy. You can set the times of a day session and evening session separately. The days of the week were indicated at the bottom of the chart.
For me personally, this saves me a lot of time with back testing. Hopefully I can help you with this too
Session openJust a small update to the preset values of the session opening times. Adjusted to 0730-1100 for Tokyo, London and New York respectively.
Note, that if the exchange you view a chart from is not using the UTC time zone, the session open times will differ. Adjust accordingly in the settings.
Session RangesThis is session range indicator with CLEAN code and CLEAR data presentation. There are other range indicators available but when I looked I found them unreliable or making too much screen clutter. WIth mine you can have 3 ranges on screen, measure to bodies or wickes, customise the period, (set your timezone), colours, labels and all that good stuff...
I'm very happy to share it with everyone (and publishing is a great way to archive my code) but ultimately this indicator is by me, for me. Whilst i added a few bells and whistles for everyone this indicator is precisely designed to:
Show me EASILY see what happened in the Asia session and whether we are breaking out with MINIMAL screen clutter. I only use the 3, 15 and 60 - it won't work on the 1, 5, 120 etc because I dont need it to. How I use it is below.
Session LiquidityDescribes if markets are liquid enough for institutions to manipulate. Its often difficult to determine if markets will trend or chop, but by looking at how much volume we have at the open, we can determine of the session will be choppy or trendy, and take trades based on that.
Settings predefined for 1m timeframe on SPY. May work with other tickers, but I have not tested it out yet.
Designed for stocks(as of now, may update later)
Trading Sessions with Highs and LowsTrading Sessions with Highs and Lows is designed to visually highlight specific trading sessions on the chart, providing traders with key insights into market behavior during these time periods. Here’s a detailed explanation of how the indicator works:
Key Features
1. Session Boxes:
• The indicator plots colored boxes on the chart to represent the price range of defined trading sessions.
• Each box spans the session’s start and end times and encapsulates the high and low prices during that period.
• Two trading sessions are defined by default:
• USA Trading Session: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• UK Trading Session: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
2. Session Labels:
• The name of the session (e.g., “USA” or “UK”) is displayed above the session box for clear identification.
3. High and Low Markers:
• Markers are added to the chart at the session’s high and low points:
• High Marker: A green label indicating the session high.
• Low Marker: A red label indicating the session low.
4. Dynamic Reset:
• After the session ends, the session high and low values are reset to na to prepare for the next trading day.
5. Customizable Background Colors:
• Each session’s box has a distinct, semi-transparent background color for better visual separation.
How It Works
1. Core Functionality:
• A function, plot_box, takes the session name, start time, end time, and background color as input.
• It calculates whether the current time is within the session.
• During the session:
• It tracks the session’s highest and lowest prices.
• It identifies the bars where the high and low occurred.
• At the session’s end:
• It plots a box on the chart covering the session’s time and price range.
• Labels are created for the session name and its high/low points.
2. Session Timing:
• Timestamps for the USA and UK trading sessions are calculated using the timestamp function with respective time zones.
3. Visual Elements:
• The box.new function draws the session boxes on the chart.
• The label.new function creates session name and high/low labels.
Usage
• Overlay Mode: The indicator is applied directly on the price chart (overlay=true), making it easy to visualize session-specific price behavior.
• Trading Strategy:
• Identify session-specific support and resistance levels.
• Observe price action trends during key trading periods.
• Align trading decisions with session dynamics.
Customization
While the indicator is preset for the USA and UK trading sessions, it can be easily modified:
1. Add/Remove Sessions: Define additional sessions by providing their start and end times.
2. Change Colors: Update the background_color in the plot_box calls to use different colors for sessions.
3. Adjust Time Zones: Replace the current time zones with others relevant to your trading style.
Visualization Example
• USA Session:
• Time: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent orange.
• UK Session:
• Time: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent green.
Why Use This Indicator?
1. Market Awareness: Easily spot price behavior during high-liquidity trading periods.
2. Trend Analysis: Analyze how sessions overlap or affect each other.
3. Session Boundaries: Use session high/low levels as dynamic support and resistance zones.
This indicator is an essential tool for intraday and swing traders who want to align their strategies with key market timings.

Recent Session High Low Marker - SimpleDescription:
This Pine Script marks the high and low points of the most recent trading sessions: Asian, London, and New York.
Asian Session: From 19:00 to 21:00 New York time (UTC-4).
London Session: From 02:00 to 05:00 New York time (UTC-4).
New York Session: From 07:00 to 10:00 New York time (UTC-4).
For each session, the script draws two lines:
One for the high of the session.
One for the low of the session.
The lines are drawn horizontally across the chart, making them easy to spot. Each session is marked by two lines with specific colors:
Orange for the Asian session.
Blue for the London session.
Purple for the New York session.
The lines are dynamically updated during the active session, and they will reset when the next session begins. The width of the lines is set to 2 to ensure they are visible without being too thick.

📝 Description
Collection of objects and common functions that are related to datetime windows session days and time ranges. The main purpose of this library is to handle time-related functionality and make it easy to reason about a future bar checking if it will be part of a predefined session and/or inside a datetime window. All existing session functionality I found in the documentation e.g. "not na(time(timeframe, session, timezone))" are not suitable for strategy scripts, since the execution of the orders is delayed by one bar, due to the script execution happening at the bar close. Moreover, a history operator with a negative value that looks forward is not allowed in any pinescript expression. So, a prediction for the next bar using the bars_back argument of "time()"" and "time_close()" was necessary. Thus, I created this library to overcome this small but very important limitation. In the meantime, I added useful functionality to handle session-based behavior. An interesting utility that emerged from this development is data anomaly detection where a comparison between the prediction and the actual value is happening. If those two values are different then a data inconsistency happens between the prediction bar and the actual bar (probably due to a holiday, half session day, a timezone change etc..)
🤔 How to Guide
To use the functionality this library provides in your script you have to import it first!
Copy the import statement of the latest release by pressing the copy button below and then paste it into your script. Give a short name to this library so you can refer to it later on. The import statement should look like this:
import jason5480/chrono_utils/2 as chr
To check if a future bar will be inside a window first of all you have to initialize a DateTimeWindow object.
A code example is the following:
var dateTimeWindow = chr.DateTimeWindow.new().init(fromDateTime = timestamp('01 Jan 2023 00:00'), toDateTime = timestamp('01 Jan 2024 00:00'))
Then you have to "ask" the dateTimeWindow if the future bar defined by an offset (default is 1 that corresponds th the next bar), will be inside that window:
// Filter bars outside of the datetime window
bool dateFilterApproval = dateTimeWindow.is_bar_included()
You can visualize the result by drawing the background of the bars that are outside the given window:
bgcolor(color = dateFilterApproval ? na : color.new(color.fuchsia, 90), offset = 1, title = 'Datetime Window Filter')
In the same way, you can "ask" the Session if the future bar defined by an offset it will be inside that session.
First of all, you should initialize a Session object.
A code example is the following:
var sess = chr.Session.new().from_sess_string(sess = '0800-1700:23456', refTimezone = 'UTC')
Then check if the given bar defined by the offset (default is 1 that corresponds th the next bar), will be inside the session like that:
// Filter bars outside the sessions
bool sessionFilterApproval = view.sess.is_bar_included()
You can visualize the result by drawing the background of the bars that are outside the given session:
bgcolor(color = sessionFilterApproval ? na : color.new(color.red, 90), offset = 1, title = 'Session Filter')
In case you want to visualize multiple session ranges you can create a SessionView object like that:
var view = SessionView.new().init(SessionDays.new().from_sess_string('2345'), array.from(SessionTimeRange.new().from_sess_string('0800-1600'), SessionTimeRange.new().from_sess_string('1300-2200')), array.from('London', 'New York'), array.from(color.blue, color.orange))
and then call the draw method of the SessionView object like that:
view.draw()
🏋️♂️ Please refer to the "EXAMPLE DATETIME WINDOW FILTER" and "EXAMPLE SESSION FILTER" regions of the script for more advanced code examples of how to utilize the full potential of this library, including user input settings and advanced visualization!
⚠️ Caveats
As I mentioned in the description there are some cases that the prediction of the next bar is not accurate. A wrong prediction will affect the outcome of the filtering. The main reasons this could happen are the following:
Public holidays when the market is closed
Half trading days usually before public holidays
Change in the daylight saving time (DST)
A data anomaly of the chart, where there are missing and/or inconsistent data.
A bug in this library (Please report by PM sending the symbol, timeframe, and settings)
Special thanks to @robbatt and @skinra for the constructive feedback 🏆. Without them, the exposed API of this library would be very lengthy and complicated to use. Thanks to them, now the user of this library will be able to get the most, with only a few lines of code!

Trading Session TemplateDescription:
The Trading Session Template Indicator is a powerful script that allows traders to customize their own trading session time range on a chart. With this indicator, you have the flexibility to define specific hours during which you prefer to focus your trading activities. The example chart showcases the New York session hours, but you can easily adapt it to any desired time range based on your trading strategy and preferences.
Key Features:
Customizable Trading Session: The indicator empowers you to define your own trading session time range, tailored to your preferred market sessions or specific trading hours. This flexibility ensures that the indicator aligns with your unique trading strategy.
Highlighted Trading Session: When a new trading day begins, the script automatically scans for the specified time range. Once the first candle within the range begins printing, the background color of the chart is highlighted, indicating the beginning of the trading session. When the last candle within the range is closed, the background color returns to normal.
Focus on Specific Market Sessions: This indicator is particularly useful for traders who prefer to trade certain market sessions or specific hours during the day. By customizing the trading session, you can better align your trading activities with specific market conditions and trading opportunities.
Candle Pattern Detection: The indicator includes the ability to detect candle patterns such as Doji, Engulfing, Hammer, and Shooting Star. You can activate the desired candle patterns and set up alerts for them. When an alert is triggered, indicating the formation of a specific candle pattern, you can further analyze the market and make informed trading decisions.
ATR Filter: The indicator offers an ATR (Average True Range) filter to limit noise and focus on candle patterns with a size comparable to the ATR. You can set a minimum and maximum size for a candle compared to the ATR. This helps you filter out smaller or larger candles that may not align with your trading preferences.
Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) Levels: When a candle pattern is detected, based on the ATR, the indicator can display suggested Stop Loss and Take Profit levels. This feature provides additional guidance for risk management and potential profit targets.
User-Friendly Interface: The indicator provides a user-friendly interface with adjustable settings and switches for customization. Tooltips are available to guide you through the various options and configurations, making it easy to adapt the indicator to your trading style and preferences.
Note:
The Trading Session Template Indicator is designed for timeframes lower than 1D. It does not plot any information on timeframes of 1D and higher.
