ICT Digital open Daily DividersDescription for "ICT Digital Open Daily Dividers" TradingView Indicator
Overview
The "ICT Digital Open Daily Dividers" is a versatile and comprehensive TradingView Pine Script indicator designed for traders who utilize Institutional Order Flow methodologies, particularly in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) trading. This indicator provides a structured visual framework to assist traders in identifying key daily market sessions, critical opening prices, and distinguishing different trading days, especially focusing on the Sunday open, which is a crucial element in the ICT trading strategy.
Core Functionalities
Daily Vertical Lines: The script plots vertical lines at the start of each trading day, which helps to demarcate daily trading sessions. These lines are customizable, allowing traders to choose their color, style (solid, dashed, or dotted), and width. This feature helps in visually segmenting each trading day, making it easier to analyze daily price action patterns.
Sunday Open Differentiation: Unlike many other daily divider indicators, this script uniquely provides the option to highlight the Sunday open at 6 PM EST with distinct lines. This feature is especially valuable for ICT traders who consider the Sunday open as a critical reference point for weekly analysis. The color, style, and width of the Sunday open lines can be set separately, providing a clear visual distinction from regular weekday separators.
12 AM Open Toggle: For markets that are influenced by midnight opens, the indicator includes an option to shift the daily open line to 12 AM instead of the default 6 PM. This flexibility allows traders to adapt the indicator to different market dynamics or trading strategies.
Timezone Customization: The indicator allows traders to set the timezone for the open lines, ensuring that the vertical lines align accurately with the trader’s specific market hours, whether they follow New York time or any other timezone.
Session Time Filters: The script can hide or show specific trading session markers, such as the New York session open and close, which are pivotal for ICT traders. These markers help in focusing on the most active and liquid trading times.
Customizable Style Settings: The script includes comprehensive styling options for the plotted lines and session markers, allowing traders to personalize their charts to suit their visual preferences and improve clarity.
Day of the Week Labels: The indicator can plot labels for each day of the week, providing a quick reference to the day’s price action. This feature is particularly useful in reviewing weekly trading patterns and performance.
Use in ICT Trading
In ICT trading, the concept of the "open" is fundamental. The "ICT Digital Open Daily Dividers" indicator serves multiple purposes:
Market Structure Identification: By clearly marking daily opens, traders can easily identify market structure changes such as breakouts, retracements, or consolidations around these key levels.
Reference Points: The Sunday open is often a key level in ICT analysis, serving as a benchmark for assessing market direction for the upcoming week. This indicator’s ability to plot Sunday opens separately makes it uniquely suited for ICT strategies.
Time-based Analysis: ICT methodology often involves analyzing the market at specific times of the day. This indicator supports such analysis by marking significant session opens and closes.

Globex time (New York Time)This indicator is designed to highlight and analyze price movements within the Globex session. Primarily geared toward the Globex Trap trading strategy, this tool visually identifies the session's high and low prices, allowing traders to better assess price action during extended hours. Here’s a comprehensive breakdown of its features and functionality:
Purpose
The "Globex Time (New York Time)" indicator tracks price levels during the Globex trading session, providing a clear view of overnight market activity. This session, typically running from 6 p.m. ET (18:00) until the following morning at 8:30 a.m. ET, is a critical period where significant market positioning can occur before the regular session opens. In the Globex Trap strategy, the session high and low are essential levels, as price movements around these areas often indicate potential support, resistance, or reversal zones, which traders use to set up entries or exits when the regular trading session begins.
Key Features
Customizable Session Start and End Times
The indicator allows users to specify the exact start and end times of the Globex session in New York time. The default settings are:
Start: 6 p.m. ET (18:00)
End: 8:30 a.m. ET
These settings can be adjusted to align with specific market hours or personal preferences.
Session High and Low Identification
Throughout the defined session, the indicator dynamically calculates and tracks:
Session High: The highest price reached within the session.
Session Low: The lowest price reached within the session.
These levels are essential for the Globex Trap strategy, as price action around them can indicate likely breakout or reversal points when regular trading resumes.
Vertical Lines for Session Start and End
The indicator draws vertical lines at both the session start and end times:
Session Start Line: A solid line marking the exact beginning of the Globex session.
Session End Line: A similar vertical line marking the session’s conclusion.
Both lines are customizable in terms of color and thickness, making it easy to distinguish the session boundaries visually on the chart.
Horizontal Lines for Session High and Low
At the end of the session, the indicator plots horizontal lines representing the Globex session's high and low levels. Users can customize these lines:
Color: Define specific colors for the session high (default: red) and session low (default: green) to easily differentiate them.
Line Style: Options to set the line style (solid, dashed, or dotted) provide flexibility for visual preferences and chart organization.
Automatic Reset for Daily Tracking
To adapt to the next trading day, the indicator resets the session high and low data once the current session ends. This reset prepares it to start tracking new levels at the beginning of the next session without manual intervention.
Practical Application in the Globex Trap Strategy
In the Globex Trap strategy, traders are primarily interested in price behavior around the high and low levels established during the overnight session. Common applications of this indicator for this strategy include:
Breakout Trades: Watching for price to break above the Globex high or below the Globex low, indicating potential momentum in the breakout direction.
Reversal Trades: Monitoring for failed breakouts or traps where price tests and rejects the Globex high or low, suggesting a reversal as liquidity is trapped in these zones.
Support and Resistance Zones: Using the session high and low as key support and resistance levels during the regular trading session, with potential entry or exit points when price approaches these areas.
Additional Configuration Options
Vertical Line Color and Width: Define the color and thickness of the vertical session start and end lines to match your chart’s theme.
Upper and Lower Line Colors and Styles: Customize the appearance of the session high and low horizontal lines by setting color and line style (solid, dashed, or dotted), making it easy to distinguish these critical levels from other chart markings.
Summary
This indicator is a valuable tool for traders implementing the Globex Trap strategy. It visually segments the Globex session and marks essential price levels, helping traders analyze market behavior overnight. Through its customizable options and clear visual representation, it simplifies tracking overnight price activity and identifying strategic levels for potential trade setups during the regular session.
Initial Balance |ASE|Introduction
Initial Balance (IB) refers to the price data that is formed during the first hour of a trading session. It is an important concept in trading as it provides insights into the market's opening sentiment and potential trading opportunities or reversals for the day. There are multiple trading sessions throughout the day. The most popular, the NY Session, is open from 9:30 am to 4:00pm EST making the Initial Balance(IB) range the first hour (9:30-10:30) The other sessions include London, Tokyo, and Sydney.
IB Customization
The Initial Balance lines are fully customizable to fit the traders need.
Show Initial Balance
This setting will plot the Initial Balance
Fill/Extend IB Range
The Fill IB Range toggle fills the area in between the IB High and IB Low. Use the IB Fill Color option to change the fill color in the “Line Settings” group on the settings panel.
The Extend IB Range extends the IB lines until the market closes.
Show 1x/2x Extensions
The Show 1x Extension toggle displays 1 times the IB range line (IB High - IB Low) above IB High and 1 times the IB range line below IB Low.
The Show 2x Extension toggle displays the 2 times the IB range line (IB High - IB Low) above IB High and 2 times the IB range line below IB Low.
*Use the Extension Level Color in the “Line Settings” to change the color of the lines.
Show Middle Levels
The Show Middle Levels toggle shows all the 50% lines between the upper 2x and upper 1x line, upper 1x and IB high, IB high and IB low, IB low and lower 1x line, and the lower 1x and lower 2x line.
*Use the Mid Level Color in the “Line Settings” to change the color of the lines.
Delete Previous Day’s Levels
This setting will only show the current day's Initial Balance and delete all previous day levels to produce a clean chart.
How To Use:
The Initial Balance Range can support a bias as it shows the opening market sentiment. By watching price action interact with the Initial Balance Range we can watch for indications of trending or failing moves at the high or the low and overall a ranging or trending session.
The extension levels are projections as to where price could potentially reach in a trending market. If we are bullish and trending higher, we would want to see price reach the first extension, signs of strength at these levels can be used as confirmation to target other levels.
Overall, all these levels can and should be used as support and resistance levels, and as always, can not be used by themselves and require additional confirmation, whether that be an indicator or price action. Below you can see chart examples of these levels in action.
Auto Support & Resistance With Wick Signals & Percentage GapsThis auto support and resistance indicator uses percentage deviations from the previous session close to calculate levels. It provides arrows as signals when it detects 2 wicks in the last 5 bars from a support or resistance level. Includes alerts for price crossing any level as well as real time percentage gaps from current price to the next closest support and resistance level. You also have the option to set up to 3 major levels of your own for any levels that are very important on longer timeframes that you want included. Those will show on the chart as well as within your percentage gap table with color coded background. All features can be customized or turned off to suit your preferences.
SOURCE
This indicator uses the previous session close as a source by default but can be adjusted to use the previous session high or the previous session low. I find the close setting to provide the most accurate levels.
SESSION
The default setting for the previous session used is the daily session but can be adjusted to use the daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly session. Use longer sessions when looking at longer time frame charts.
SIGNALS
The signals by default are set to only show an arrow if there have been 2 bullish or bearish wicks off of a support or resistance level in the last 5 bars. This can be changed to one bullish wick off of support and one bearish wick off of resistance or it can be set to give a signal anytime a bar crosses a support or resistance level. This can be controlled in the indicator settings.
PERCENTAGE DEVIATION LEVELS
The default percentage deviation is set to 1% but can and should be adjusted according to whatever ticker you are using. For example use .25% or .5% when looking at forex intraday charts since they are not as volatile as other markets. For leveraged etfs used 1% multiplied by the leverage on the etf, so for SQQQ use 3% as it is a 3x leveraged etf. When looking at longer timeframes or highly volatile charts, set the percentage deviation to 2%, 5%, 10%, etc.
LINE COLORS
The color of the lines will change from red to green depending on if the price is above or below that level. You can customize these colors in the settings.
MAJOR LEVELS
If you have major levels of support and resistance from longer timeframes and your own charting, you can add up to 3 major levels that will show on the chart as well as show the percentage gaps in the table. The label for each major level will be colored to match the color of the line on the chart individually.
PERCENTAGE GAP TABLE
The gap table will update live with percentages to go from current price to the next closest support and resistance levels so you don’t have to calculate them manually. The position of the percentage gap table can also be changed within the indicator settings.
TURN FEATURES ON/OFF
There are 3 toggle switches so you can easily turn on or off certain features such as: the support and resistance lines, the percentage gaps table and the arrow signals.
LINE WIDTHS
You can also set the line width of all levels and the line width of the starting level within the indicator settings.
***MARKETS***
This indicator can be used as a signal on all markets, including stocks, crypto, futures and forex.
***TIMEFRAMES***
This automatic support and resistance indicator can be used on all timeframes as long as there is enough data for the session used.
***TIPS***
Try using numerous indicators of ours on your chart so you can instantly see the bullish or bearish trend of multiple indicators in real time without having to analyze the data. Some of our favorites are our Volume Spike Scanner, Volume Profile, Momentum and Trend Friend in combination with this auto support and resistance indicator. They all have real time Bullish and Bearish labels as well so you can immediately understand each indicator's trend.

Vela dominante con cruce de ema y zona horaria (Juan H.)Indicator Description: "Dominant Candle + EMA Cross + Time Zones"
This indicator was specifically designed for intraday trading on the EUR/USD pair, following a methodology based on price action, liquidity, and market structure.
🕒 Suggested Trading Hours (Argentina Time):
Early London Session: 3:00 AM to 6:00 AM
New York Session: 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM
📌 Trading Strategy:
Time Block: 3:00 AM – 6:00 AM:
Before entering any trade, I wait for the price to break the high or low of the Asian session, clearly marked on the chart by the lines extending from the Asia box.
If the Asian low is broken: I will only look for buy signals.
If the Asian high is broken: I will only look for sell signals.
I enter only on the first signal that appears after the break, always following the direction of the breakout.
Stop Loss Placement:
For buys: Below the last FVG (Fair Value Gap) that is located below the 11 and 21 EMAs.
For sells: Above the last FVG that is above the 11 and 21 EMAs.
Time Block: 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM:
The same logic applies, but in this case, I wait for a breakout of the London session’s high or low.
If the high or low of London has not been broken before 12:00 PM, I skip trading for that block.
🎯 Trade Management:
Minimum recommended Risk-Reward Ratio: 1:2
My personal approach: I target a 1:3 R:R, applying fractional profit-taking:
20% of the position at 1:1
40% at 1:2
40% at 1:3
I highly recommend each trader conduct their own backtesting to find the TP distribution that best suits their style.
📍 Signal Conditions:
Signals from this indicator won’t trigger under just any circumstances. They appear only when several quality filters are met:
The signal must occur outside a range-bound zone.
The signal requires a dominant (engulfing) candle that crosses the 21 EMA.
Usually, the same candle that generates the signal forms an FVG, making it easier to define a technical and logical Stop Loss level.
This approach aims to increase win probability by combining:
Price Action + Structure + Liquidity + Intraday Timing.
I hope this tool adds value to your trading!
Tick Tack by TradeSeekers"Tick Tack" is a unique first of it's kind attempt at recreating market breadth index "TICK" for all sessions and all markets. Do not confuse this with tick charts.
Backstory
The fun aptly named "Tick Tack" has similar visuals to a market breadth indicator I created, MIT (Market Internal Trend) . For comparative demonstrations it has been included in the publication chart but is not required for Tick Tack usage.
MIT centers on the "TICK" index in a unique bias colored histogram display, where extreme high tick values indicate potential for buy side exhaustion, and inversely, extreme low tick values indicate potential for sell side exhaustion.
The issue with market breadth/internal data is the unavailability in non-RTH sessions, something this indicator resolves. Also TICK isn't available for crypto markets, non-US markets, etc. Tick Tack can be applied to virtually any market.
Neutral Range
Given that TICK index is a ratio and operates on a known range (~1000 +/-), many measures surrounding TICK are statically anchored.
When recreating the concept of TICK on an unbounded market, certain concessions had to be made, the first being the boundaries.
Tick Tack reads the market and creates a dynamic boundary for the "tick like" high and low extreme areas. That is the neutral range and is similarly colored to the MIT indicator.
Conventional trading wisdom indicates that TICK index values between 500 +/- are neutral/chop and have no edge.
Breaks
Any sufficiently high or low breaks beyond the neutral range are considered breaks and colored to indicate this event. Deviation calculations are used to indicate the strength level.
If a break of significant strength is detected, it'll be marked as "extreme" with color and a diamond plot, exactly like MIT.
"Tick" Trend
A simple SMA trend, like MIT, is made optionally available to show direction of the histogram measure.
"TRIN" Dots
TRIN, or "traders index", aims to present a numerical value indicating buy and sell sentiment. Intraday this index adjusts in realtime to market breadth price and volume advancement or decline with a publicly available formula for the entire market (NYSE typically).
Given that Tick Tack isn't making use of market breadth data, some creativity was employed here with a different take on the concept.
At times where measurement indicates directional movement, Tick Tack will display white dots at the histogram zero point, otherwise if balance is detected then the dots will be orange. If neither measure fires a detection, no dots will be displayed.
Usage
It's been primarily designed to emulate TICK index for intraday trading, scalping and similar.
Once sufficiently settled on directionality, range, etc. Utilize the histogram to find key break points to counter or join depending on market conditions.
Often times with TICK, the extreme breaks can be counter signals for quick mean reversion scalps.
Look for histogram and price action divergences for V signals near key pivots.
Tick Tack hasn't been tested nor designed for anything higher timeframe, but a benefit of this indicator vs TICK index is that it works on any timeframe with scaled resolution. It's entirely possible that this indicator has usefulness in higher timeframes.
Considerations
Tick Tack operates under the premise that mostly the market breadth will impact the market being charted and should provide a close approximation. If the charted market has low correlation to breadth then assume this TICK like display will have little to no similarity to the real TICK index (which may be acceptable).
Where Tick Tack and the TICK index will potentially see wide divergence will be near open of RTH. In many cases, with gaps in the NYSE or similar market breadth data, it will take some time for TICK index to catch up to current market conditions. Tick Tack will not suffer from this issue if utilizing extended session data and may provide a clearer picture.
Do note that Tick Tack is not claiming to present actual market breadth information and while it can be used for scalping, like TICK, I'm unsure it can be trusted for the same reasons as TICK.
Final Notes
I've received countless messages, questions and comments that my other market breadth tools be made available to extended sessions, non-US markets and crypto.
My thought process was that if I could create something that closely matched TICK index in regular trading hours, then perhaps it would provide similar indications and usefulness in extended session.

Quarterly Cycle Theory with DST time AdjustedThe Quarterly Theory removes ambiguity, as it gives specific time-based reference points to look for when entering trades. Before being able to apply this theory to trading, one must first understand that time is fractal:
Yearly Quarters = 4 quarters of three months each.
Monthly Quarters = 4 quarters of one week each.
Weekly Quarters = 4 quarters of one day each (Monday - Thursday). Friday has its own specific function.
Daily Quarters = 4 quarters of 6 hours each = 4 trading sessions of a trading day.
Sessions Quarters = 4 quarters of 90 minutes each.
90 Minute Quarters = 4 quarters of 22.5 minutes each.
Yearly Cycle: Analogously to financial quarters, the year is divided in four sections of three months each:
Q1 - January, February, March.
Q2 - April, May, June (True Open, April Open).
Q3 - July, August, September.
Q4 - October, November, December.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (daily candles) — Monthly Cycle.
Monthly Cycle: Considering that we have four weeks in a month, we start the cycle on the first month’s Monday (regardless of the calendar Day):
Q1 - Week 1: first Monday of the month.
Q2 - Week 2: second Monday of the month (True Open, Daily Candle Open Price).
Q3 - Week 3: third Monday of the month.
Q4 - Week 4: fourth Monday of the month.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (4 hour candles) — Weekly Cycle.
Weekly Cycle: Daye determined that although the trading week is composed by 5 trading days, we should ignore Friday, and the small portion of Sunday’s price action:
Q1 - Monday.
Q2 - Tuesday (True Open, Daily Candle Open Price).
Q3 - Wednesday.
Q4 - Thursday.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (1 hour candles) — Daily Cycle.
Daily Cycle: The Day can be broken down into 6 hour quarters. These times roughly define the sessions of the trading day, reinforcing the theory’s validity:
Q1 - 18:00 - 00:00 Asia.
Q2 - 00:00 - 06:00 London (True Open).
Q3 - 06:00 - 12:00 NY AM.
Q4 - 12:00 - 18:00 NY PM.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (15 minute candles) — 6 Hour Cycle.
6 Hour Quarters or 90 Minute Cycle / Sessions divided into four sections of 90 minutes each (EST/EDT):

Cz ASR indicatorAverage session range indicator built by me. Great tool to gauge volatility and intraday reversal zones. Great for FX as there is an included table that shows range in pips; however, this can be applied across all assets as a volatility measure.
How it works:
The script measures the range of sessions, including Asia, London, and New York. The lookback period could be adjusted so you can find what length works best and is most accurate. This is then averaged out to provide the ASR. This provides us with an upper and lower bound of which the price could potentially fluctuate in based on the past session ranges. I have also added the 50% ASR, which is also a super useful metric for reversals or continuations.
There is also a configurable UTC so that you can adjust the indicator so it can accurately measure the range within certain sessions.
Note - different session start and stop times vary from market to market. I have set the code to the standard forex market opens however, if you wish to change the time ,you are able to do so by editing the variables in the script
Enjoy :)

Opening Range, Initial Balance, Opening Price, Pre-market Levels### Description of the Indicator: **Opening Range, Initial Balance, Opening Price, Pre-market Levels**
This custom TradingView indicator provides a comprehensive view of key price levels for intraday trading, specifically designed to track important levels from the Opening Range (OR), Initial Balance (IB), Opening Price (OP), and Pre-market session (PM). These levels are essential for traders to gauge potential market movements and identify critical areas of support and resistance.
#### **Features:**
1. **Opening Range (OR):**
- This is the high and low of the first 30 minutes of the regular market session (09:30 - 10:00 EST).
- The OR high and low act as significant levels that may influence price movement for the rest of the day.
- The mid-level of the Opening Range (OR Mid) is also plotted to give a more detailed view of potential price action.
2. **Initial Balance (IB):**
- The Initial Balance is the range created during the first hour of market activity (09:30 - 10:30 EST).
- This range often sets the tone for the market's direction. The IB high and low, along with the IB midline, are plotted for quick reference.
3. **Opening Price (OP):**
- The opening price of the market is marked as a circle and labeled "OP."
- This level provides context for market sentiment when compared to the high and low levels.
4. **Pre-market Levels (PM):**
- The pre-market session (04:00 - 09:30 EST) has its own important levels that are calculated for the high, low, and mid range (PM High, PM Low, and PM Mid).
- These levels are plotted and are useful for traders to understand where the market stood before the regular session opened.
#### **Customization Options:**
- **Exchange Timezone:** You can choose whether to display the times in the exchange's local timezone or in your own preferred timezone.
- **Mid Levels Display:** You can toggle whether the mid levels for each range (OR, IB, PM) should be shown on the chart.
- **Level Color Change:** The colors of the plotted levels (high, low, mid) change based on whether the price is above or below the respective level, making it easy to visualize potential support and resistance.
- **Label Positions:** The position of the labels (OR, IB, OP, PM) on the chart can be customized to avoid overlap with other data points.
#### **Key Use Cases:**
- **Intraday Trend Analysis:** Use the OR and IB to identify key levels for the day, providing insights into the possible trend or range for the day.
- **Pre-market Insights:** The PM levels are crucial for understanding where the market stood during the pre-market hours and can be used as reference points during the regular session.
- **Potential Support and Resistance:** The high and low levels of the OR, IB, and PM sessions can act as potential support or resistance, which are useful for setting stop-loss and take-profit levels.
#### **How to Use:**
- Pay attention to the levels provided for OR, IB, and PM as potential entry and exit points.
- Watch for breakouts or reversals around these levels, especially when combined with other technical indicators or price action patterns.
- The mid levels offer an additional reference to assess price direction or identify possible areas of consolidation.
This indicator is perfect for day traders who rely on key intraday levels and pre-market activity to make informed trading decisions. It helps to streamline the process of identifying potential breakouts, reversals, and ranges in the market.
Fib Speed Resistance Fan"Fib Speed Resistance Fan," automatically draws Fibonacci Speed Resistance Fan lines based on the first and third candles of the trading session. Here’s a breakdown of its functionality:
Functionality
Session Start Time Identification
The script identifies the first candle at 9:15 AM using timestamp(), which ensures it captures the market's opening candle.
Candle Indexing
It determines the index of the first candle (firstCandleIndex) using ta.barssince(time >= sessionStart).
The third candle is found by adding two bars to the first candle's index (thirdCandleIndex = firstCandleIndex + 2).
Ensuring Single Execution
A boolean flag hasDrawn ensures that the lines are drawn only once and do not update on future candles.
Validating Data
It checks if the firstCandleIndex and thirdCandleIndex are valid (validSession).
If conditions are met, it extracts the highs and lows of the first and third candles.
Fibonacci Calculation
The script calculates a 0.75 level price between the first candle high/low and third candle low/high.
This level helps in drawing intermediate Fibonacci fan lines.
Drawing the Fibonacci Speed Resistance Fan
If conditions are valid and hasDrawn is false, the script draws:
Main fan lines from:
First candle high → Third candle low (Blue line)
First candle low → Third candle high (Blue line)
Liquidity + SP y RS + Zones [AlgoRich]This indicator is designed to identify key areas in the market, such as support and resistance levels, liquidity zones, and important price structures.
Additionally, it highlights operational areas based on specific time frames, facilitating technical analysis and decision-making in trading.
How does it work?
1. Identification of Pivot Levels
The indicator identifies local highs and lows on the chart, known as pivot levels, which are zones where the price tends to react, such as:
Support zones: Areas where the price is likely to stop falling.
Resistance zones: Areas where the price might encounter obstacles to keep rising.
These levels are calculated by analyzing a range of bars around the current price and are highlighted with lines, boxes, and labels on the chart.
2. Liquidity Zones
Liquidity zones are defined as areas where there has been an accumulation of orders, either for buying or selling. These zones are significant because they often signal future price movements.
The indicator creates visual boxes around these levels, allowing traders to quickly identify areas where the price might react.
3. Support and Resistance Lines
Horizontal lines are drawn at the identified highs and lows, representing support and resistance levels on the chart.
These lines can be extended forward until the price touches them, showing whether the level has been respected or "broken."
4. Visual Labels
The indicator can also display labels at key levels to provide additional information, such as whether the level corresponds to a high or low.
5. Operational Zones
In addition to support and resistance levels, the indicator allows users to mark specific time periods, referred to as operational sessions.
These zones highlight user-defined periods, such as:
New York session
London session
Daily session
This helps focus analysis on the most active market periods.
6. Customization
The user can customize the following:
Pivot sizes (how many bars to consider to the left and right).
Colors and styles of the lines, boxes, and labels.
Visibility of elements such as boxes, lines, and labels.
Whether to extend the levels forward until the price reaches them.
What is this indicator used for?
Identifying key areas in the market: Support, resistance levels, and liquidity zones are essential for understanding where the price is most likely to react.
Defining entry and exit points: Highlighted zones help determine when to open or close trades.
Highlighting key market moments: With operational sessions, you can focus on the most relevant periods for your strategy.
Simplifying technical analysis: By visualizing levels and zones directly on the chart, it reduces the time needed to identify critical areas.
Benefits for Traders
This indicator is ideal for traders who:
Want to analyze key market levels quickly and efficiently.
Are looking for high-probability zones to trade, based on support, resistance, and liquidity areas.
Need a visual approach to highlight operational levels and important time frames on their charts.
In summary, this indicator serves as a comprehensive tool that combines advanced technical analysis with a user-friendly visual interface, allowing traders to make more informed and precise decisions.

TRADUCCIÓN AL ESPAÑOL:
Este indicador está diseñado para identificar zonas clave en el mercado, como niveles de soporte y resistencia, zonas de liquidez, y estructuras importantes de precios. Además, resalta las áreas operativas de acuerdo con horarios específicos, facilitando el análisis técnico y la toma de decisiones en el trading.
¿Cómo funciona?
1. Identificación de Niveles Pivot
El indicador busca máximos y mínimos locales en el gráfico, conocidos como niveles pivote, los cuales son zonas donde el precio suele reaccionar, como en:
Zonas de soporte: Donde el precio tiene probabilidades de detener su caída.
Zonas de resistencia: Donde el precio podría encontrar obstáculos para seguir subiendo.
Estos niveles son calculados analizando un rango de barras alrededor del precio actual, y se destacan con líneas, cajas y etiquetas en el gráfico.
2. Zonas de Liquidez
Las zonas de liquidez se definen como áreas donde ha habido una acumulación de órdenes, ya sea de compra o venta. Estas zonas son importantes porque suelen marcar movimientos futuros significativos en el precio.
El indicador crea cajas visuales alrededor de estos niveles, permitiendo identificar rápidamente las áreas donde el precio puede reaccionar.
3. Líneas de Soporte y Resistencia
Se trazan líneas horizontales en los máximos y mínimos identificados, representando los niveles de soporte y resistencia en el gráfico.
Estas líneas se pueden extender hacia adelante hasta que el precio las toque, mostrando si el nivel ha sido respetado o "roto".
4. Etiquetas Visuales
El indicador también puede mostrar etiquetas en los niveles clave para proporcionar información adicional, como si el nivel corresponde a un máximo o un mínimo.
5. Zonas Operativas
Además de los niveles de soporte y resistencia, el indicador permite marcar zonas de tiempo específicas, llamadas sesiones operativas.
Estas zonas resaltan períodos definidos por el usuario, como:
Sesión de Nueva York.
Sesión de Londres.
Diario.
Esto ayuda a enfocar el análisis en los momentos más activos del mercado.
6. Personalización
El usuario puede personalizar:
Tamaños de pivote (cuántas barras a la izquierda y derecha considerar).
Colores y estilos de las líneas, cajas y etiquetas.
La visibilidad de elementos como cajas, líneas y etiquetas.
Extender o no los niveles hacia adelante hasta que el precio los alcance.
¿Para qué sirve este indicador?
Identificar zonas importantes del mercado: Los niveles de soporte, resistencia y las zonas de liquidez son esenciales para entender dónde es más probable que el precio reaccione.
Definir puntos de entrada y salida: Las zonas destacadas ayudan a determinar cuándo abrir o cerrar operaciones.
Resaltar momentos clave del mercado: Con las sesiones operativas, puedes enfocarte en los períodos más relevantes para tu estrategia.

En resumen, este indicador actúa como una herramienta integral para combinar análisis técnico avanzado con una interfaz visual amigable, lo que permite a los traders tomar decisiones más informadas y precisas.
NVOL Normalized Volume & VolatilityOVERVIEW
Plots a normalized volume (or volatility) relative to a given bar's typical value across all charted sessions. The concept is similar to Relative Volume (RVOL) and Average True Range (ATR), but rather than using a moving average, this script uses bar data from previous sessions to more accurately separate what's normal from what's anomalous. Compatible on all timeframes and symbols.
Having volume and volatility processed within a single indicator not only allows you to toggle between the two for a consistent data display, it also allows you to measure how correlated they are. These measurements are available in the data table.
DATA & MATH
The core formula used to normalize each bar is:
( Value / Basis ) × Scale
Value
The current bar's volume or volatility (see INPUTS section). When set to volume, it's exactly what you would expect (the volume of the bar). When set to volatility, it's the bar's range (high - low).
Basis
A statistical threshold (Mean, Median, or Q3) plus a Sigma multiple (standard deviations). The default is set to the Mean + Sigma × 3 , which represents 99.7% of data in a normal distribution. The values are derived from the current bar's equivalent in other sessions. For example, if the current bar time is 9:30 AM, all previous 9:30 AM bars would be used to get the Mean and Sigma. Thus Mean + Sigma × 3 would represent the Normal Bar Vol at 9:30 AM.
Scale
Depends on the Normalize setting, where it is 1 when set to Ratio, and 100 when set to Percent. This simply determines the plot's scale (ie. 0 to 1 vs. 0 to 100).
INPUTS
While the default configuration is recommended for a majority of use cases (see BEST PRACTICES), settings should be adjusted so most of the Normalized Plot and Linear Regression are below the Signal Zone. Only the most extreme values should exceed this area.
Normalize
Allows you to specify what should be normalized (Volume or Volatility) and how it should be measured (as a Ratio or Percentage). This sets the value and scale in the core formula.
Basis
Specifies the statistical threshold (Mean, Median, or Q3) and how many standard deviations should be added to it (Sigma). This is the basis in the core formula.
Mean is the sum of values divided by the quantity of values. It's what most people think of when they say "average."
Median is the middle value, where 50% of the data will be lower and 50% will be higher.
Q3 is short for Third Quartile, where 75% of the data will be lower and 25% will be higher (think three quarters).
Sample
Determines the maximum sample size.
All Charted Bars is the default and recommended option, and ignores the adjacent lookback number.
Lookback is not recommended, but it is available for comparisons. It uses the adjacent lookback number and is likely to produce unreliable results outside a very specific context that is not suitable for most traders. Normalization is not a moving average. Unless you have a good reason to limit the sample size, do not use this option and instead use All Charted Bars .
Show Vol. name on plot
Overlays "VOLUME" or "VOLATILITY" on the plot (whichever you've selected).
Lin. Reg.
Polynomial regressions are great for capturing non-linear patterns in data. TradingView offers a "linear regression curve", which this script uses as a substitute. If you're unfamiliar with either term, think of this like a better moving average.
You're able to specify the color, length, and multiple (how much to amplify the value). The linear regression derives its value from the normalized values.
Norm. Val.
This is the color of the normalized value of the current bar (see DATA & MATH section). You're able to specify the default, within signal, and beyond signal colors. As well as the plot style.
Fade in colors between zero and the signal
Programmatically adjust the opacity of the primary plot color based on it's normalized value. When enabled, values equal to 0 will be fully transparent, become more opaque as they move away from 0, and be fully opaque at the signal. Adjusting opacity in this way helps make difference more obvious.
Plot relative to bar direction
If enabled, the normalized value will be multiplied by -1 when a bar's open is greater than the bar's close, mirroring price direction.
Technically volume and volatility are directionless. Meaning there's really no such thing as buy volume, sell volume, positive volatility, or negative volatility. There is just volume (1 buy = 1 sell = 1 volume) and volatility (high - low). Even so, visually reflecting the net effect of pricing pressure can still be useful. That's all this setting does.
Sig. Zone
Signal zones make identifying extremes easier. They do not signal if you should buy or sell, only that the current measurement is beyond what's normal. You are able to adjust the color and bounds of the zone.
Int. Levels
Interim levels can be useful when you want to visually bracket values into high / medium / low. These levels can have a value anywhere between 0 and 1. They will automatically be multiplied by 100 when the scale is set to Percent.
Zero Line
This setting allows you to specify the visibility of the zero line to best suit your trading style.
Volume & Volatility Stats
Displays a table of core values for both volume and volatility. Specifically the actual value, threshold (mean, median, or Q3), sigma (standard deviation), basis, normalized value, and linear regression.
Correlation Stats
Displays a table of correlation statistics for the current bar, as well as the data set average. Specifically the coefficient, R2, and P-Value.
Indices & Sample Size
Displays a table of mixed data. Specifically the current bar's index within the session, the current bar's index within the sample, and the sample size used to normalize the current bar's value.
BEST PRACTICES
NVOL can tell you what's normal for 9:30 AM. RVOL and ATR can only tell you if the current value is higher or lower than a moving average.
In a normal distribution (bell curve) 99.7% of data occurs within 3 standard deviations of the mean. This is why the default basis is set to "Mean, 3"; it includes the typical day-to-day fluctuations, better contextualizing what's actually normal, minimizing false positives.
This means a ratio value greater than 1 only occurs 0.3% of the time. A series of these values warrants your attention. Which is why the default signal zone is between 1 and 2. Ratios beyond 2 would be considered extreme with the default settings.
Inversely, ratio values less than 1 (the normal daily fluctuations) also tell a story. We should expect most values to occur around the middle 3rd, which is why interim levels default to 0.33 and 0.66, visually simplifying a given move's participation. These can be set to whatever you like and only serve as visual aids for your specific trading style.
It's worth noting that the linear regression oscillates when plotted directionally, which can help clarify short term move exhaustion and continuation. Akin to a relative strength index (RSI), it may be used to inform a trading decision, but it should not be the only factor.
Profitability Visualization with Bid-Ask Spread ApproximationOverview
The " Profitability Visualization with Bid-Ask Spread Approximation " indicator is designed to assist traders in assessing potential profit and loss targets in relation to the current market price or a simulated entry price. It provides flexibility by allowing users to choose between two methods for calculating the offset from the current price:
Bid-Ask Spread Approximation: The indicator attempts to estimate the bid-ask spread by using the highest (high) and lowest (low) prices within a given period (typically the current bar or a user-defined timeframe) as proxies for the ask and bid prices, respectively. This method provides a dynamic offset that adapts to market volatility.
Percentage Offset: Alternatively, users can specify a fixed percentage offset from the current price. This method offers a consistent offset regardless of market conditions.
Key Features
Dual Offset Calculation Methods: Choose between a dynamic bid-ask spread approximation or a fixed percentage offset to tailor the indicator to your trading style and market analysis.
Entry Price Consideration: The indicator can simulate an entry price at the beginning of each trading session (or the first bar on the chart if no sessions are defined). This feature enables a more realistic visualization of potential profit and loss levels based on a hypothetical entry point.
Profit and Loss Targets: When the entry price consideration is enabled, the indicator plots profit target (green) and loss target (red) lines. These lines represent the price levels at which a trade entered at the simulated entry price would achieve a profit or incur a loss equivalent to the calculated offset amount.
Offset Visualization: Regardless of whether the entry price is considered, the indicator always displays upper (aqua) and lower (fuchsia) offset lines. These lines represent the calculated offset levels based on the chosen method (bid-ask approximation or percentage offset).
Customization: Users can adjust the percentage offset, toggle the bid-ask approximation and entry price consideration, and customize the appearance of the lines through the indicator's settings.
Inputs
useBidAskApproximation A boolean (checkbox) input that determines whether to use the bid-ask spread approximation (true) or the percentage offset (false). Default is false.
percentageOffset A float input that allows users to specify the percentage offset to be used when useBidAskApproximation is false. The default value is 0.63.
considerEntryPrice A boolean input that enables the consideration of a simulated entry price for calculating and displaying profit and loss targets. Default is true.
Calculations
Bid-Ask Approximation (if enabled): bidApprox = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, timeframe.period, low) Approximates the bid price using the lowest price (low) of the current period. askApprox = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, timeframe.period, high) Approximates the ask price using the highest price (high) of the current period. spreadApprox = askApprox - bidApprox Calculates the approximate spread.
Offset Amount: offsetAmount = useBidAskApproximation ? spreadApprox / 2 : close * (percentageOffset / 100) Determines the offset amount based on the selected method. If useBidAskApproximation is true, the offset is half of the approximated spread; otherwise, it's the current closing price (close) multiplied by the percentageOffset.
Entry Price (if enabled): var entryPrice = 0.0 Initializes a variable to store the entry price. if considerEntryPrice Checks if entry price consideration is enabled. if barstate.isnew Checks if the current bar is the first bar of a new session. entryPrice := close Sets the entryPrice to the closing price of the first bar of the session.
Profit and Loss Targets (if entry price is considered): profitTarget = entryPrice + offsetAmount Calculates the profit target price level. lossTarget = entryPrice - offsetAmount Calculates the loss target price level.
Plotting
Profit Target Line: Plotted in green (color.green) with a dashed line style (plot.style_linebr) and increased linewidth (linewidth=2) when considerEntryPrice is true.
Loss Target Line: Plotted in red (color.red) with a dashed line style (plot.style_linebr) and increased linewidth (linewidth=2) when considerEntryPrice is true.
Upper Offset Line: Always plotted in aqua (color.aqua) to show the offset level above the current price.
Lower Offset Line: Always plotted in fuchsia (color.fuchsia) to show the offset level below the current price.
Limitations
Approximation: The bid-ask spread approximation is based on high and low prices and may not perfectly reflect the actual bid-ask spread of a specific broker, especially during periods of high volatility or low liquidity.
Simplified Entry: The entry price simulation is basic and assumes entry at the beginning of each session. It does not account for specific entry signals or order types.
No Order Execution: This indicator is purely for visualization and does not execute any trades.
Data Discrepancies: The high and low values used for approximation might not always align with real-time bid and ask prices due to differences in data aggregation and timing between TradingView and various brokers.

Enigma Endgame with Dynamic Trend-Based FibonacciThe Enigma Endgame script combines dynamic trend-based Fibonacci levels with the core principles of the ENIGMA strategy. It provides traders with actionable signals by identifying key levels of fractal support and resistance and highlighting opportunities to trade with market momentum. This tool is designed for multi-timeframe analysis and is especially effective during high-volatility sessions like London and New York.
Purpose and Usefulness
This script was developed to simplify complex market dynamics by integrating Fibonacci principles with ENIGMA's logic of fractal support and resistance. Traders can use it to:
- Identify key breakout and retracement levels dynamically.
- Understand the shift between support and resistance as price action evolves.
- Gain confidence in their entries with real-time signals derived from logical fractal behavior.
By merging Fibonacci levels with fractal-based trading insights, this script offers a unique and comprehensive approach to analyzing market structure.
How It Works
The script uses a dual approach to provide insights:
1. Dynamic Fibonacci Levels:
- Automatically plots Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on recent high and low swings, adjusting dynamically to current market trends.
- Allows traders to visualize key levels where price might reverse or extend.
2. Fractal Support and Resistance Logic:
- The script identifies fractal support and resistance by analyzing candle formations.
- When a candle body closes below the low of a previous candle, the previous low, which was fractal support, now becomes fractal resistance. The script generates a bearish signal, encouraging traders to look for sell opportunities at or above the previous low.
- Conversely, when a candle body closes above the high of a previous candle, the previous high, which was fractal resistance, becomes fractal support. The script generates a bullish signal, encouraging traders to look for buy opportunities at or below the previous high.
Real-Time Signals
The script marks these transitions with arrows on the chart:
- Bearish arrows indicate broken fractal support turning into resistance.
- Bullish arrows** indicate broken fractal resistance turning into support.
These signals help traders stay aligned with the trend and trade with market momentum.
Key Features
1. Session-Based Analysis: Focuses on high-probability setups by allowing traders to customize session times, such as London or US sessions.
2. Multi-Timeframe Support: Works seamlessly across multiple timeframes for both scalpers and swing traders.
3. Real-Time Alerts: Sends customizable alerts when price interacts with critical Fibonacci levels or fractal support/resistance shifts.
How to Use the Script
1. Apply the script to a clean chart for clear visualization. Avoid combining it with other scripts unless necessary.
2. Use the arrows to identify shifts in fractal support and resistance and validate opportunities for buy/sell trades.
3. Monitor the dynamic Fibonacci levels to find confluence with key price areas.
4. Customize session times to focus on high-probability trading hours.
Key Notes for Traders
- This script provides insights based on logical market structure but should be used alongside proper risk management and trading plans.
- The fractal-based approach works well in conjunction with dynamic Fibonacci levels, helping traders build confidence in their strategy.
- Adapt the script settings to match your unique trading style and timeframe preferences.
By offering a seamless integration of fractal logic and Fibonacci principles, Enigma Endgame empowers traders with actionable insights to navigate markets effectively.
New York Midnight Indicator█ OVERVIEW
This script provides a visual tool for traders to track the New York Midnight (NY Midnight), a significant time marker for those who rely on New York’s financial markets. The script calculates the exact moment of midnight in New York and places a vertical line on the chart at this time, helping traders identify when a new trading day begins according to the New York time zone. The indicator also marks the midnight point with a lime-colored downward triangle to enhance visibility on the chart. It is specifically useful for traders who want to synchronize their strategies with New York’s trading hours, especially in global markets.
The script is flexible, allowing traders to adjust the UTC offset to accommodate different time zones. This is critical for those trading in different regions but still using New York as the main time reference.
█ CONCEPTS
New York Midnight: For many traders, especially those following the Forex and US stock markets, midnight in New York signifies the start of a new trading day. This point is essential for technical analysis as it often aligns with daily opening ranges, trend shifts, and volume spikes.
UTC Offset: The script includes a user-input parameter (utcOffset) to adjust the calculated time for New York midnight, ensuring that it accounts for time zone differences. This allows it to be used effectively regardless of the user’s local time zone, offering flexibility to global traders.
█ METHODOLOGY
UTC Offset Adjustment: The script starts by asking the trader to input their UTC offset (e.g., UTC -5 for New York without daylight saving time). This offset is added to the current chart time to align it with New York’s local time.
Current Hour Calculation: Once the UTC offset is applied, the script calculates the New York Hour by taking the chart’s current hour and adjusting it with the offset. This ensures that the displayed hour matches New York’s local time, regardless of the trader's location.
Vertical Line at Midnight: When the current New York hour equals 00:00 (midnight), the script plots a black vertical line on the chart. This line serves as a visual reference for the exact moment when New York's trading day begins, allowing traders to align their strategies accordingly.
Downward Triangle Plot: In addition to the vertical line, the script also adds a lime-colored downward triangle at the same bar location to further highlight the midnight point. This is useful for traders who prefer shape markers to visualize significant time events.
█ HOW TO USE
Identifying Daily Resets: The script makes it easy for traders to track when New York’s trading day resets. This is especially useful in Forex markets, where daily cycles and time zone-based volatility play an important role in price movement and volume spikes.
Time Zone Flexibility: By adjusting the UTC offset parameter, traders across the globe can synchronize their charts with New York time. This is critical for international traders who want to execute trades based on New York market patterns but reside in different time zones.
Strategic Time Marking: The vertical line and shape markers at midnight allow traders to quickly see when a new trading day starts, helping them identify patterns like the daily range, key support/resistance levels, or even potential reversals around this time.
Session-Based Analysis: Traders who work with session-based strategies (e.g., trading the Asian, European, or US sessions) can use this marker to better time their entries or exits relative to the start of the New York session.
█ METHOD VARIANTS
This script can be modified or extended in various ways to better suit specific trading strategies:
Highlighting Other Session Starts: It could be adapted to plot lines for other key session starts (e.g., London open, Tokyo open).
Multiple Time Zones: For traders who monitor several markets, the script could be extended to display midnight markers for multiple time zones.
Custom Line Styles: Users could modify the line color, thickness, or style to better match their chart aesthetic or preferences.
HT: Intraday LevelsIndicator draws several most important intraday levels: last day RTH high/low, ETH high/low, Half Back, Day Close and current day RTH Day Open. These levels often act as support/resistance for intraday price movements. Also, they can help to assess day character and control of power.
Indicator can be used for ETH + RTH sessions.
Important notes:
• User must specify RTH session time, appropriate for his time zone and exchange
• Half-back is calculated as a middle line between RTH High and Low.
• Day Close is always equal to close of the last bar of the previous day
• RTH Day Open will be redrawn for the current day as soon as it is known (after RTH session opens and at least one bar gets confirmed).
Known issues:
• Day open will not be shown if there is no bar, clearly corresponding to RTH open time (e.g. if 4h timeframe is selected)
• For some ETH sessions it is not possible to determine session’s last bar (this is pine script limitation) until next day trading starts. This means that daily levels will be also update with only then.
Parameters:
Date – user can select date, for which levels will be plotted. Works only if “Use” check box is on. Otherwise, levels will be plotted for the last day. (“time” value doesn’t matter; unfortunately, there is no way to hide the input box)
RTH Open/Close time – it is important to specify time, appropriate for your time zone.
Time zone – your chart time zone (as UTC offset)
Visuals – controls visibility and colors
Script is published as an open source. It uses two libraries: Levels Lib and Functions Lib. First one demonstrates how to work with pine-script object model and arrays. You can also reuse it in your custom scripts where there is need to construct any support/resistance levels. The second library contains some useful functions for working with time and dates.
Disclaimer
This indicator should not be used as a standalone tool to make trading decisions but only in conjunction with other technical analysis methods.
