Vola US Stock Market Sessions AlertVersion: 1.0
Author: Elwin Pietersz
Vola US Stock Market Sessions is a session-aware alert indicator designed to notify you exactly when the US equity market sessions open and close, with automatic daylight-saving time (DST) adjustment.
It supports Pre-Market, Regular Trading Hours (RTH), and After-Hours sessions for US stocks and ETFs listed on NYSE and NASDAQ.
All session times are anchored to America/New_York, so daylight saving time is handled automatically and no manual time changes are required.
Supported sessions (Eastern Time – ET):
Pre-Market: 04:00 – 09:30 ET
Regular Session (RTH): 09:30 – 16:00 ET
After-Hours: 16:00 – 20:00 ET
You can create alerts for any of the following events:
Pre-Market Open and Close
Regular Session Open and Close
After-Hours Open and Close
The indicator also includes a “Selected Session” mode.
You can choose Pre-Market, Regular, or After-Hours in the settings and create a single alert that follows your selected session automatically.
Alerts are triggered only when candles are printing.
This means there are no alerts on weekends, no alerts on full-market holidays, and no false alerts when the market is closed.
Key features:
Automatic daylight-saving time handling
Session-aware alerts based on real market activity
Works on any timeframe (1m or 5m recommended for alerts)
Optional activity filter to reduce alerts during extremely thin conditions
Clean and non-intrusive design (can be used purely as an alert engine)
Important notes:
To receive Pre-Market and After-Hours alerts, Extended Hours (ETH) must be enabled for the symbol in TradingView. Availability depends on the exchange and symbol.
On certain holidays (for example, the day after Thanksgiving), US markets may close early, typically at 1:00 PM ET. This indicator does not use a holiday calendar, so early closes should be handled manually if needed.
Recommended alert settings:
Interval: 1m or 5m
Trigger: Once per bar close
Expiration: Open-ended
This indicator is suitable for US stock and ETF traders, index traders (such as SPY, QQQ, DIA), options traders who need precise session timing, and international traders who want accurate US market alerts without timezone confusion.

PA Helper - SessionsPA Helper – Sessions is a session visualization and timing utility designed to give precise intraday context directly on your chart. It allows you to define up to four custom trading sessions with full control over time ranges, colors, fills, and timezone handling, making it suitable for any market or trading style.
The indicator draws clear session start and end markers and can optionally highlight the full session range on the chart. A key capability is that it does not limit itself to historical data only: it can project and display future session boundaries ahead of the current price, allowing you to see upcoming session starts and ends before they happen. This is especially useful for planning trades, managing exposure, and preparing for session-based volatility.
Candles outside active session hours can be visually muted or hidden using a separate color, helping you focus only on relevant trading periods. The script also supports real-time session detection, ensuring accuracy both in replay mode and live markets.
In addition, PA Helper – Sessions includes configurable alerts that can notify you a chosen number of minutes before a session starts or before it ends. These notifications work across all enabled sessions and are designed to trigger reliably without duplicate alerts, making them practical for active intraday traders.
Overall, this tool acts as a clean, precise session framework that combines past, present, and future session awareness, helping you align price action analysis with time-based market behavior.
OiDeer (Session Map+Open+VWAP+PrevDay+VIX bands)Overview
Intraday context pack for NSE symbols that overlays Prev Close (official 15:30), Prev Day High/Low, Daily Open, 1st Candle Open, VWAP, an optional centered 100-point grid, and Expected High/Low bands derived from India VIX (Open).
It also computes remaining points to reach the expected bands for today (live) and for every historical session.
What it plots
Prev Close (yesterday 15:30 cash close) extended across today.
Prev Day High/Low extended across today.
Daily Open and Intraday 1st Candle Open (today only).
VWAP (session).
Expected High/Low from India VIX(Open) with optional √time intraday scaling.
Remaining points labels:
Today: points from today’s High → Exp High and today’s Low → Exp Low (also shown in Data Window).
Historical: for each completed day, points that were remaining from that day’s High/Low to its expected High/Low.
100-point centered grid (…00 levels by default; shift via Base Offset).
All labels are anchored at the session start bar (arrow on day boundary) with the label box rendered to the left so current candles stay unobstructed.
VIX math (expected move)
Daily σ: (VIX_open / 100) / √252.
Intraday option (today only): multiply by √(elapsed_minutes / 375).
Expected % move: k * daily_sigma * (√fraction if enabled).
Bands around reference S (choose Open, Prev Close, or Last):
ExpHigh = S + S * expected_pct
ExpLow = S - S * expected_pct
Historical sessions use that day’s VIX(Open) and reference S (no intraday scaling).
Inputs
Prev Close / PDH / PDL: show/hide, label toggles, colors, widths.
Daily/1st Candle Open, VWAP: show/hide; labels sit left of day start.
India VIX Bands: k (sigma), Reference Price (Open / Prev Close / Last), √time scaling toggle, colors, label toggles.
Remaining to Exp Bands: show labels, Clamp to 0 (no negatives), show in Data Window.
100-Point Grid: step, base offset, style, count above/below, color/width.

Notes
Assumes NSE cash session 09:15–15:30 IST (375 min).
Prev Close uses official cash close at 15:30.
Designed for NSE symbols; India VIX source: NSE:INDIAVIX (Daily Open).
No alerts in this version.
Tips
Use k = 1.0 for ~1σ feel; try 1.5–2.0 for wider envelopes.
Open as reference is clean for intraday; Prev Close is gap-aware.
Turn on √time scaling if you prefer bands that widen through the day.

NSE sessions Anchored by ltplevels.com📌 NSE Session Zones + Anchored VWAP Indicator
Designed specifically for Indian Equity & Index Traders
This indicator is a powerful, session-aware trading tool built exclusively around Indian market timings (NSE/BSE). It visually structures the trading day by clearly separating intraday sessions, helping traders understand market behavior, participation, and price acceptance within each time block.
The Indian market opens with a unique 15-minute opening session (09:15–09:30), followed by 30-minute rotational sessions until 15:30. This indicator accurately captures that structure by drawing vertical separators and zonal background highlights for every session, allowing traders to instantly identify where price is developing, consolidating, or breaking out.
Each session is further enhanced with a Session-Anchored VWAP, which automatically resets at the first candle of every new session, regardless of the chart timeframe. This provides a highly reliable fair value reference for intraday trading, scalping, and momentum strategies. Price behavior around the anchored VWAP often reveals institutional participation, acceptance zones, and intraday trend strength.
The alternating session colors improve visual clarity and reduce chart noise, while the optional vertical lines mark precise session boundaries without clutter. All features can be toggled directly from the settings panel, making the indicator lightweight, customizable, and trader-friendly.
This tool is ideal for:
Intraday equity traders
NIFTY / BANKNIFTY / FINNIFTY traders
VWAP-based strategies
Opening range & session-rotation traders
Built with non-repainting logic, clean Pine Script v5 structure, and professional branding, this indicator delivers clarity, discipline, and structure to the Indian intraday market.

ICT Finatic: Session Ranges & Macro Alerts (Cristian)This indicator is designed to assist ICT traders by automating the visualization of key session ranges and time-based macro events. It focuses on the Asia and London sessions and provides timely alerts for specific macro times.
Features:
Dynamic Session Ranges (Asia & London):
Instead of simple High/Low of the session, this script identifies Swing Highs and Swing Lows based on a 3-candle fractal pattern (High/Low of the central candle is higher/lower than its neighbors).
It calculates these swings using 15-minute timeframe data (via request.security), ensuring stability regardless of the chart timeframe used.
The lines extend dynamically and update only when a new, more significant swing is formed during the session.
Macro Time Vertical Lines:
The script monitors specific NY-time macros (09:45, 10:15, 10:45, 11:15, 11:45, 12:15).
Pre-warning System: 5 minutes before a macro time occurs (e.g., at 09:40 for the 09:45 macro), a temporary vertical line appears on the future time slot.
Auto-Cleanup: Once the macro time is reached, the vertical line is automatically removed to keep the chart clean. This feature is active on timeframes lower than 1 hour.
Bias Table:
Includes a customizable dashboard to manually input and visualize your directional bias for multiple timeframes (Daily to 5m).
How to use:
Add the indicator to your chart (works best on M1 or M5 timeframes).
Adjust the session times in the settings if needed (Default is NY time).
Use the dashboard to track your daily bias.
Watch for the orange vertical lines appearing 5 minutes before macro events to prepare for potential volatility.

Worstfx Fractal Sessions 🧩 Worstfx Fractal Sessions Public — Features & Purpose
✔️ Includes clean session structure • Simple confluence • Built-in guardrails for your psychology
Worstfx Fractal Sessions Public is a stripped-back, clean version of the full Worstfx framework.
It’s designed to give every trader the core advantages of the fractal system:
• clear session structure
• simple trend/confluence read
• context from Daily ATR
• basic order-flow sentiment
• an on-chart help panel so nobody gets lost
All without overwhelming settings or “indicator soup.”
Use it to see the day as a story: Asia range → London expansion → Pre-NY setup → NY confirmation or reversal.
⸻
⚙️ Main Features
1️⃣ Session Shading (Asia / London / Pre NY / NY)
What it does
• Colors each session with soft, transparent shading:
• Asia – yellow tone
• London – purple tone
• Pre NY – light blue
• NY – light blue (separate time block)
• You can customize the session times and colors.
• Includes a 6:00 pm ET divider line to mark the start of a new “trading day” in your framework.
Why it matters (psychology)
• Your brain stops seeing random candles and starts seeing chapters:
• Asia = range / setup
• London = expansion / fakeouts
• NY = continuation / reversal
• This reduces FOMO and impulsive entries because you naturally ask:
“Which session am I in?”
“What is this session supposed to be doing?”
• The 6pm divider helps you mentally reset each day instead of carrying emotional baggage from yesterday into today.
⸻
2️⃣ Time-Frame Confluence Panel (Weekly → 15m)
What it does
• Checks a simple model on multiple timeframes (W, D, 4H, 1H, 15m):
• Above or below the 50 EMA
• RSI above or below 50
• Converts that into a 0–100% confluence score per TF.
• Gives a %TOTAL score that blends all TFs into a single number.
• Two display modes:
• Strip — horizontal bar with W/D/4H/1H/15m + %TOTAL
• Table — vertical list showing bull% / bear% per TF
• Mobile mode shrinks everything for smaller screens.
Why it matters (psychology)
• Instead of arguing with yourself about “trend,” you get a simple question:
“Are the higher timeframes mostly aligned or mixed?”
• Green/high %TOTAL = “permission” to press your bias, not to over-trade.
• Red/low %TOTAL = natural brake: “This is not the clean trend day. Size down or stay out.”
• It pulls you away from 1-minute tunnel vision and forces you to respect bigger structure.
⸻
3️⃣ Daily ATR Panel (Last 4–12 days + Forecast)
What it does
• Tracks true daily range (High–Low) over recent days.
• Shows:
• Last few days’ range in ticks and $
• Optional 4-day average forecast (projected typical daily move)
• Option to show just last 4 days, or full 12-day history.
• Two modes:
• Table – labeled rows with “ticks / $” columns
• Macro – compact text summary like “FC: 2000t | $20.00”
Why it matters (psychology)
• You stop expecting 5000-tick moves on a 600-tick average day.
• When the forecast is small, you naturally:
• avoid chasing huge targets
• respect partials
• recognize “maybe today just isn’t the big runner”
• On big ATR days, you recognize that volatility is here, so:
• you give your targets breathing room
• you’re less likely to panic when price swings
• This keeps your expectations in line with reality, which reduces tilt, frustration, and revenge trades.
⸻
4️⃣ Order-Flow Sentiment Panel (Compact OF Read)
What it does
• Estimates buy vs sell volume on the current and previous candles.
• Shows:
• Sentiment row with Buy% / Sell%
• Buy/Sell volumes (with “k/m” formatting if enabled)
• Optional extra rows for prior candles.
• Highlights imbalances when one side hits your imbalance threshold (e.g., 70%).
Why it matters (psychology)
• Gives you a quick “who’s in control right now” view without staring at raw volume.
• Imbalance flashes create micro-alerts:
• “This might be a stop run or strong continuation, pay attention.”
• Prevents you from blindly shorting into heavy buy pressure or buying into stacked sell pressure just because of greed or fear.
• Makes your entries feel more validated, which calms you during the trade.
⸻
🧠 Overall Psychological Goal
Worstfx Fractal Sessions Public is not just a visual skin for your charts.
It’s a behavior framework.
It tries to quietly enforce:
• Patience → by tying you to sessions and key time behavior.
• Selectivity → by checking multi-TF trend alignment.
• Realistic expectations → via ATR context.
• Non-impulsive entries → via order-flow imbalance checks.
• Accountability → via clear explanations and structure, not vibes.
Instead of chasing every move, you’re guided into a loop:
“What session am I in? What is ATR saying? Are TFs aligned? Is order-flow confirming? If not, I wait.”
🔋 The risk is minimized by structure & The reward is maximized by timing🔋
Opening Range & Session Liquidity [LTS]“Opening Range & Session Liquidity ” is an intraday planning tool that combines a configurable Opening Range box with session highs/lows and previous-day reference levels. It is designed to help you visualize where liquidity is likely to build up around the cash open and major global sessions, without making any forecasts or performance promises. It is designed with our signature attention to user customization and accessibility.
Opening Range & Bias
The script builds a configurable Opening Range (OR) in New York time (default 08:00–08:15 on a 15-minute basis), regardless of your chart timeframe (up to 1-hour). The high, low, and midline of this window are drawn as a transparent box and dashed midline that extend forward so you can see how the session trades around that range.
At a user-defined Bias Check Time (default 09:30–09:31 NY), the script classifies the OR as:
Bullish if price is above the OR high
Bearish if price is below the OR low
Neutral if price is still trading inside the OR
The box color updates to reflect the current bias if bias mode is enabled. All OR parameters (formation window, bias check, colors, maximum number of zones, etc.) are adjustable.
Entry Signal Logic
The indicator can optionally generate non-repainting visual signals when price interacts with the OR midline.
1. 9:30 Bias mode (trend-following)
A directional bias is locked in at the bias check time.
Signals trigger only when price trades through the OR midline inside the box, aligned with that bias:
Bullish bias → long signal when price touches the midline from below and closes inside the range.
Bearish bias → short signal when price touches the midline from above and closes inside the range.
Each “episode” can fire only once; signals are confirmed on the bar where the conditions first become true.
2. Entry Direction mode (reaction to first touch)
Instead of using a fixed 9:30 bias, the script detects from which side price first enters the OR (from above or from below).
That “entry direction” stays active until price fully exits and closes outside the OR again.
When price later touches the midline while the entry direction is defined, a single long or short signal is triggered based on the stored direction of entry.
In both modes, historical signals are plotted without using future data; only the real-time bar can change state until it closes.
Optional TP/SL Visualization
When a long or short signal appears, the script can draw simple take-profit/stop-loss boxes to illustrate a basic one-trade idea:
Stop-loss distance can be defined as:
A fixed number of points beyond the OR high/low, or
A percentage of ATR (configurable length and percent).
Take-profit is automatically placed at a user-defined risk-to-reward multiple of that stop distance.
The boxes extend forward bar by bar and stop updating once either TP or SL is touched, or when a new OR session resets the context.
These boxes are for visualization only and do not place or manage orders.
Session Liquidity & PDH/PDL
To help you map where liquidity frequently builds up, the script tracks three configurable intraday sessions in New York time:
Asian session (default 18:00–02:00)
London session (default 03:00–08:00)
New York session (default 09:30–16:00)
For each completed session, the indicator records the session high and low, then:
Draws solid horizontal lines and labels (e.g., “Asia Hi/Lo”, “London Hi/Lo”, “NY Hi/Lo”).
Extends these solid lines to the right as long as they remain untouched by price.
When price first trades through a level, the solid line is cut at that bar and replaced by a dashed line that extends only until the next session of the same type begins.
Older sessions are automatically removed according to the “Max Sessions to Display” setting to reduce chart clutter.
In addition, the indicator plots:
Previous Day High (PDH) & Previous Day Low (PDL)
Previous Day Point of Control (PDPoC) – an approximate volume-weighted price computed from intraday data using a simple binning approach on a user-chosen lower timeframe.
Like the session levels, PDH/PDL/PDPoC start as solid lines. After the first touch, each level switches to a dashed style and continues only until the following trading day, at which point the previous day’s dashed lines are stopped and new levels are created.
Info Table & Multi-Timeframe Logic
An optional on-chart info table summarizes the most recent Opening Range:
OR high, low, and midline
Current OR range in points
Active mode (9:30 Bias vs. Entry Direction)
Current bias or entry-direction status
Whether a signal is “Waiting”, “Armed”, or “Triggered”
Whether the OR was built from the chart timeframe or from a 15-minute higher-timeframe feed
If your chart timeframe is higher than the OR calculation timeframe, the script automatically uses multi-timeframe data to build a consistent OR, while enforcing a maximum chart timeframe of 1-hour for reliability.
How to Use This Tool
Use the OR box and bias to define your primary intraday context around the cash open.
Use session highs/lows and PDH/PDL/PDPoC as objective reference levels for where price may react or where stops and liquidity might cluster.
Treat the signal markers and TP/SL boxes as visual guides only. They can help you structure trade ideas, but they are not a trading system by themselves.
Always confirm levels and signals with your own analysis, risk management, and execution rules.
Limitations & Notes
The script is intended for intraday charts up to 1-hour. By the nature of the information being displayed, any time frame above that may result is undesirable visual clutter.
The POC calculation is an approximation based on lower timeframe bar-level volume and binning; it is not a tick-by-tick volume profile.
Signals and levels update in real time on the current forming bar. Once a bar closes, completed historical signals do not repaint, but the last live bar can change until it closes.
The indicator does not use lookahead or offset plotting into the past; it is not designed to predict the future or guarantee any particular trading result.
Always test settings on a demo environment first and manage risk according to your own plan.

Alos Volume Profile Candles (SVP)ALOS Volume Profile Candles (SVP)
Summary
IMPORTANT: This indicator is designed to be used only with TradingView's 'Session Volume Profile' chart type. It will not work correctly with standard candle charts.
This indicator powerfully visualizes intra-session price action by dividing a single session profile into a specific number of equal-sized synthetic candles.
Instead of viewing a session as one single block, you can now break it down into parts (like quarters or thirds) to see how price behaved during each segment of the profile.
Key Features
Custom Session Slicing: Set "Candles per session" to 4 to see the session in quarters, 6 to see it in sixths, or any number you choose.
Full Session Control: Works perfectly with any custom session time, including complex overnight sessions (like '1800-1700' for CME crypto futures)
Accurate OHLC Calculation: Each synthetic candle correctly calculates and displays its own Open, High, Low, and Close for its specific time slice.
Clean Charting: Use the "Keep last sessions" input to control how many old sessions are drawn, preventing chart clutter and keeping your analysis focused on recent price action.
How to Use
On your TradingView chart, change the chart type to "Session Volume Profile".
Add the "ALOS Volume Profile Candles (SVP)" indicator to your chart.
Set your desired Session time in the indicator settings (or keep the default).
Choose the number of Candles per session you want to divide it into.
Adjust Keep last sessions to control how much history is displayed.
This tool is ideal for traders who want to analyze price behavior during the opening, middle, and closing parts of a session, or for breaking down long 24-hour crypto sessions into more manageable chunks.

Elite Zone Master Pro - Advanced Multi-Session Trading System🚀 Elite Zone Master Pro - Advanced Multi-Session Trading System
🎯 ORIGINALITY & UNIQUE VALUE PROPOSITION
Elite Zone Master Pro is NOT a simple mashup of existing indicators. It's a proprietary trading system that combines three distinct methodologies into a unified, synergistic approach:
Multi-Session Zone Analysis - Original algorithm for tracking global market sessions
Dynamic Opening Range Breakout (ORB) - Enhanced ORB with bias-aware signal filtering
Advanced Fair Value Gap Detection - Proprietary FVG identification with smart mitigation tracking
🔧 Why This Combination Works
The power lies in how these components work together, not separately:
Session zones provide market context and volatility windows
ORB system identifies key breakout levels during optimal timeframes
FVG detection pinpoints precise entry locations within the ORB framework
Integrated bias system filters signals based on range direction momentum
🧠 DETAILED METHODOLOGY & CALCULATIONS
🌍 1. Multi-Session Zone Framework
What it does: Tracks and visualizes three major global trading sessions simultaneously.
How it works:
Dynamic zone tracking algorithm that calculates session highs/lows in real-time
Adaptive box rendering that expands/contracts based on actual price movement
Session overlap detection for identifying high-volatility periods
Time-weighted zone positioning using custom timezone calculations
Original concepts:
Simultaneous multi-session visualization (not found in standard session indicators)
Dynamic zone expansion based on volatility, not fixed time periods
Cross-session momentum analysis for bias determination
🎯 2. Enhanced Opening Range Breakout System
What it does: Identifies breakout opportunities from predefined session ranges with intelligent bias filtering.
How it works:
Multi-session ORB calculation: Supports US (16:30-16:45), EU (10:00-10:15), Asian (03:00-03:15), and custom sessions
Dynamic range establishment: Range is built in real-time during active session periods
Bias-aware signal filtering: Two-tier breakout system based on range midpoint momentum
Range direction analysis: Compares current range midpoint to previous session's midpoint
Original methodology:
Range Bias Calculation:
- If Current_Midpoint > Previous_Midpoint = Bullish Bias (+1)
- If Current_Midpoint < Previous_Midpoint = Bearish Bias (-1)
- If Current_Midpoint = Previous_Midpoint = Neutral Bias (0)
Signal Logic:
- Bullish Bias: Standard breakout above range high
- Bearish Bias: Enhanced breakout (range_high + 0.5 * range_width) for bullish signals
- Neutral Bias: Standard breakouts both directions
⚡ 3. Advanced Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
What it does: Identifies and tracks fair value gaps with automatic mitigation detection.
How it works:
Three-bar gap analysis: Compares current bar relationships to identify true gaps
Dynamic threshold calculation: Auto-adjusting sensitivity based on market volatility
Smart mitigation tracking: Automatically removes filled gaps from display
Directional bias integration: Color-codes gaps based on their directional implication
Proprietary algorithms:
Bullish FVG Criteria:
- Current_Low > High (gap condition)
- Close > High (confirmation)
- (Current_Low - High ) / High > Threshold (significance filter)
Bearish FVG Criteria:
- Current_High < Low (gap condition)
- Close < Low (confirmation)
- (Low - Current_High) / Current_High > Threshold (significance filter)
Mitigation Logic:
- Bullish FVG: Mitigated when Close < FVG_Low
- Bearish FVG: Mitigated when Close > FVG_High
📈 4. Session-Based Moving Average System
What it does: Calculates moving averages that reset and adapt to session boundaries.
How it works:
Session-aware length calculation: Effective length = min(bars_since_session_start, user_length)
Multiple MA types: EMA, SMA, RMA, WMA, VWMA with session-specific calculations
Dynamic smoothing: Adapts to session length for consistent signals across different session durations
🔄 INTEGRATED SYSTEM SYNERGY
🎯 How Components Work Together
Context Layer: Session zones provide market timing context
Setup Layer: ORB system identifies breakout opportunities within optimal timeframes
Entry Layer: FVG detection pinpoints precise entry levels
Filter Layer: Bias system ensures alignment with momentum direction
Confirmation Layer: Session MA provides trend confirmation
🧭 Signal Generation Process
Step 1: Session Analysis
- Identify active trading session
- Calculate session volatility metrics
- Establish range boundaries
Step 2: Range Bias Calculation
- Compare current vs previous range midpoints
- Assign directional bias (-1, 0, +1)
- Adjust breakout thresholds accordingly
Step 3: Breakout Detection
- Monitor price interaction with range boundaries
- Apply bias-specific breakout criteria
- Generate preliminary signals
Step 4: FVG Confirmation
- Scan for fair value gaps within range
- Validate gap significance using dynamic thresholds
- Provide entry refinement opportunities
Step 5: Signal Validation
- Cross-reference with session MA direction
- Ensure alignment with overall bias
- Output final trading signals
📊 PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION
🎯 Trading Strategy Framework
Setup Phase:
Configure session times for your timezone
Enable preferred sessions (US/EU/Asian)
Adjust FVG sensitivity based on instrument volatility
Execution Phase:
Wait for range establishment during active session
Monitor for bias-aligned breakouts
Look for FVG retest opportunities
Enter trades with ORB-based stop losses
Risk Management:
Stop loss placement: Outside ORB range boundaries
Position sizing: Based on range width volatility
Trade direction: Must align with calculated range bias

IDKFAIDKFA - Advanced Order Blocks & Volume Profile with Market Structure Analysis
Why IDKFA?
Named after the legendary DOOM cheat code that gives players "all weapons and full ammo," IDKFA provides traders with a comprehensive arsenal of market analysis tools. Just as the cheat code arms players with everything needed for combat, this indicator equips traders with essential market structure tools: Order Blocks, Volume Profile, LVN/HVN areas, Fibonacci retracements, and intelligent buy/sell signals - all in one unified system.
Core Features
Order Blocks Detection
Automatically identifies institutional order blocks using pivot high/low analysis
Extends blocks dynamically until price interaction occurs
Bullish blocks (demand zones) and bearish blocks (supply zones)
Customizable opacity and extend functionality
Advanced Volume Profile
Real-time volume profile calculation for multiple session types
Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL)
Mode 1: Side-by-side bull/bear volume display
Mode 2: Overlapped volume display with percentage analysis
Shows buying vs selling pressure at each price level
LVN/HVN Area Detection
Low Volume Nodes (LVN): Areas below VAL where price moves quickly
High Volume Nodes (HVN): Areas above VAH with strong resistance
NPOC (Naked Point of Control): Single print areas within Value Area
Volume-based gradient coloring shows relative activity levels
Smart Fibonacci Retracements
Auto-detects trend direction for proper fibonacci orientation
Dynamic color coding: Red levels in uptrends, Gold in downtrends
Special 88.6% level turns lime green in downtrends
Key levels: 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 65%, 78.6%, 88.6%
Intelligent Signal System
Works best on higher timeframes
Identifies high-probability reversal setups at key levels
Buy signals: Large bearish rejection followed by bullish reclaim
Sell signals: Large bullish rejection followed by bearish breakdown
Signals only trigger near significant support/resistance areas
Signal Analysis & Usage Guidelines
Buy Signal Mechanics
The buy signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bearish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle reclaims a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key support level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
Sell Signal Mechanics
The sell signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bullish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle rejects below a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key resistance level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
When to TAKE Signals
High Probability Buy Signals:
Signal appears AT or BELOW the VAL (Value Area Low)
Signal occurs at bullish order block confluence
Price is in LVN area below VAL (momentum acceleration zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% support
Multiple session POC levels provide support confluence
Previous session's VAL acting as current support
High Probability Sell Signals:
Signal appears AT or ABOVE the VAH (Value Area High)
Signal occurs at bearish order block confluence
Price is in HVN area above VAH (heavy resistance zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% resistance
Multiple session POC levels provide resistance confluence
Previous session's VAH acting as current resistance
When to AVOID Signals
Avoid Buy Signals When:
Signal appears ABOVE the VAH (buying into resistance)
Price is in HVN red zones (high volume resistance areas)
No clear support structure below current price
Volume profile shows heavy selling pressure (high bear percentages)
Signal occurs during low-volume periods between major sessions
Multiple bearish order blocks exist below current price
Avoid Sell Signals When:
Signal appears BELOW the VAL (selling into support)
Price is in LVN green zones (momentum could continue)
No clear resistance structure above current price
Volume profile shows heavy buying pressure (high bull percentages)
Signal occurs during Asian session ranges without clear direction
Multiple bullish order blocks exist above current price
Volume Profile Context for Signals
Understanding Bull/Bear Percentages:
70%+ Bull dominance at a level = Strong support expected
70%+ Bear dominance at a level = Strong resistance expected
50/50 Split = Neutral zone, less predictable
Use percentages to gauge conviction behind moves
POC (Point of Control) Interactions:
Signals above POC in uptrend = Higher probability
Signals below POC in downtrend = Higher probability
Signals against POC bias require extra confirmation
POC often acts as magnetic level for price return
Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: VAL/VAH Bounce Strategy
Wait for price to approach VAL (support) or VAH (resistance)
Look for signal confirmation at these critical levels
Enter with tight stops beyond the Value Area
Target opposite boundary or next session's levels
Strategy 2: Order Block + Volume Confluence
Identify order block alignment with VAL/VAH
Wait for signal within the confluence zone
Enter on signal with stop beyond order block
Use LVN areas as acceleration zones for targets
Strategy 3: LVN/HVN Strategy
LVN (Green) Areas: "Go Zones" - expect quick price movement through low volume
HVN (Red) Areas: "Stop Zones" - expect resistance and potential reversals
NPOC Areas: "Fill Zones" - price often returns to fill single print gaps
Strategy 4: Multi-Session Analysis
Use Daily/Weekly for major structure context
Use 4H for intermediate levels
Use 1H for precise entry timing
Ensure all timeframes align before taking signals
Strategy 5: Fibonacci + Volume Profile
Buy signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAL
Sell signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAH
Use 88.6% level as final support/resistance before major moves
50% level often aligns with POC for confluence
Signal Quality Assessment
Grade A Signals (Highest Probability):
Signal at VAL/VAH with order block confluence
Fibonacci level alignment (61.8%, 78.6%)
Volume profile shows 70%+ dominance in signal direction
Multiple timeframe structure alignment
Signal occurs during high-volume sessions (London/NY)
Grade B Signals (Moderate Probability):
Signal near POC with some confluence
Fibonacci 50% or 38.2% alignment
Mixed volume profile readings (50-70% dominance)
Some timeframe alignment present
Signal during overlap sessions
Grade C Signals (Lower Probability):
Signal with minimal confluence
Weak fibonacci alignment or none
Volume profile neutral or against signal
Conflicting timeframe signals
Signal during low-volume periods
Risk Management Guidelines
Position Sizing Based on Signal Quality:
Grade A: Standard position size
Grade B: Reduced position size (50-75%)
Grade C: Minimal position size (25%) or skip entirely
Stop Loss Placement:
Beyond order block boundaries
Outside Value Area (VAL/VAH)
Below/above fibonacci confluence levels
Account for session volatility ranges
Profit Targets:
First target: Opposite VAL/VAH boundary
Second target: Next session's key levels
Final target: Major order blocks or fibonacci extensions

Important Disclaimers
This indicator is a technical analysis tool designed for educational purposes. It does not provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or trading signals that guarantee profits. All trading involves substantial risk of loss, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Users should conduct their own research, understand the risks involved, and consider consulting with qualified financial advisors before making trading decisions. The signals and analysis provided are based on historical price patterns and volume data, which may not predict future market movements accurately.
Best Practices
Never trade signals blindly - always consider volume profile context
Wait for confluence between multiple tools before entering
Respect the Value Area - avoid buying above VAH or selling below VAL
Use session context - Asian ranges vs London/NY breakouts
Practice proper risk management - position size based on signal quality
Understand the bigger picture - use multiple timeframes for context
Remember: Like the IDKFA cheat code, having all the tools doesn't guarantee success. The key is learning to use them together effectively and understanding when NOT to take a signal is often more important than knowing when to take one.

Disclaimer: This script is for informational purposes only and does not provide financial advice. Please consult a licensed financial advisor for personalized trading guidance.
Simple Volume Profile with POC (Daily/4H Sessions) [Enhanced]Simple Volume Profile with a Point of Control (POC). The script does the following:
Accumulates volume in user-defined “bins” (price buckets) for a session.
Resets the volume accumulation each new “session”:
On a Daily chart, it considers weekly sessions (resets each Monday).
On a 4H chart, it considers daily sessions (resets at the start of each trading day).
Finds the Point of Control (the price bin with the highest accumulated volume).
Plots the histogram and the POC line on the chart.
asia session w shieldIntroduction
This Script displays the Asia Session Range
Description
The Indicator is based on UTC -7 timing but displays the Session Boxes automatically correct at your chart so you do not have to adjust any timings based on your Time Zone and don't have to do any calculations based on your UTC. It is already perfect.
You will see on default settings the blue Asia Box, the special ' invalid shield ' feature is there because first two hours are spread timing.
Most Timing-based Indicators have "bugged" boxes or don't show clean boxes at all and don't adjust at daylight savings times, we made sure that everything automatically gets adjusted so you don't have to! So the timings will always display at the correct time regarding the daylight savings times.
Combining Timing with Liquidity Zones the right way and in a clear, clean, and simple format.
Different than others this script also shows the "true" Asia range as it respects the "day open gap" which affects the Asia range in other scripts and it also covers the full 8 hours of Asia Session.
Recommended Use
The most beautiful display is on the M5 Timeframe as you have a clear overview of all sessions without losing the intraday view. You can also use it on the M1 for more details or the M15 for the bigger picture. The Template can hide on higher time frames starting from the H1 to not flood your chart with boxes.
How to use the Asia Session Range Box
Use the Asia Range Box as your intraday Guide, keep in mind that a Breakout of Asia high or low induces Liquidity and a common price behavior is a reversal after the fake breakout of that range.
Gross and Net LTF Volume + Trailing Percentile Sessions CVOL Hi Traders !
Gross volume, net lower time frame (LTF) volume and trailing session percentile Cumulative session volume:
The code calculates and plots the following volume indicators:
Volume (Gross Volume): The total volume for the current bar.
Net lower time frame volume: The difference between the buy and sell volumes of the lower time frame.
Cumulative daily session volume: The cumulative sum of the volume for the current day.
Percentile Cumulative daily session volume: The percentile of the cumulative daily session volume (calculated on a rolling basis).
The above indicators may be plotted exclusively or exclusively.
Why is Volume important:
Volume is the number of shares or contracts traded (of a financial asset) during a given time period (timeframe). It is a crucial indicator in technical analysis and quantitative trading, as volume helps in identifying
Price Confirmation: Volume confirms price movements by indicating the level of interest and participation in the market. When prices move significantly, accompanied by strong volume, it suggests that the movement is likely to be sustained. Conversely, if prices move without significant volume, it suggests that the movement may be temporary or lacking conviction.
Trend Strength: Volume can help identify the strength and direction of a trend. During an uptrend, increasing volume alongside price increases indicates that the upward momentum is gaining traction. Conversely, decreasing volume during an uptrend suggests that the upward momentum may be weakening.
Reversal Points: Sharp volume spikes in the opposite direction of the prevailing trend can signal a potential reversal point. This is because large volume indicates a significant shift in trader sentiment, suggesting that the trend may be changing direction.
Liquidity: High volume indicates that a security is liquid, meaning that it can be easily bought and sold without significant price impact. Liquidity is important for traders who want to execute large orders without significantly affecting the market price.
For example, suppose we want to identify positive price confirmation and positive trend strength, in this case we may use the CVOL (with trailing percentile).
The above image showcases price expansion conditional on high positive volume (increasing CVOL), The price expansion also exhibits Volume confluences (the colored bars).
Positive Confluence: Increase in positive total volume and an increase in positive lower time frame volume in relative and absolute terms.
Negative Confluence : Increase in negative total volume and an increase in negative lower time frame volume in relative and absolute terms.
Also note how the percentile color does not change, this means that the new volume bars are > than the highest percentile (80%) of volume values from the beginning of the session.
Day Trading Booster by DGTTiming when day trading can be everything
In Stock markets typically more volatility (or price activity) occurs at market opening and closings
When it comes to Forex (foreign exchange market), the world’s most traded market, unlike other financial markets, there is no centralized marketplace, currencies trade over the counter in whatever market is open at that time, where time becomes of more importance and key to get better trading opportunities. There are four major forex trading sessions, which are Sydney , Tokyo , London and New York sessions
Forex market is traded 24 hours a day, 5 days a week across by banks, institutions and individual traders worldwide, but that doesn’t mean it’s always active the entire day. It may be very difficult time trying to make money when the market doesn’t move at all. The busiest times with highest trading volume occurs during the overlap of the London and New York trading sessions, because U.S. dollar (USD) and the Euro (EUR) are the two most popular currencies traded. Typically most of the trading activity for a specific currency pair will occur when the trading sessions of the individual currencies overlap. For example, Australian Dollar (AUD) and Japanese Yen (JPY) will experience a higher trading volume when both Sydney and Tokyo sessions are open
There is one influence that impacts Forex matkets and should not be forgotten : the release of the significant news and reports. When a major announcement is made regarding economic data, currency can lose or gain value within a matter of seconds
Cryptocurrency markets on the other hand remain open 24/7, even during public holidays
Until 2021, the Asian impact was so significant in Cryptocurrency markets but recent reasearch reports shows that those patterns have changed and the correlation with the U.S. trading hours is becoming a clear evolving trend.
Unlike any other market Crypto doesn’t rest on weekends, there’s a drop-off in participation and yet algorithmic trading bots and market makers (or liquidity providers) can create a high volume of activity. Never trust the weekend’ is a good thing to remind yourself
One more factor that needs to be taken into accout is Blockchain transaction fees, which are responsive to network congestion and can change dramatically from one hour to the next
In general, Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile, which means that the price of a coin can change dramatically over a short time period in either direction
The Bottom Line
The more traders trading, the higher the trading volume, and the more active the market. The more active the market, the higher the liquidity (availability of counterparties at any given time to exit or enter a trade), hence the tighter the spreads (the difference between ask and bid price) and the less slippage (the difference between the expected fill price and the actual fill price) - in a nutshell, yield to many good trading opportunities and better order execution (a process of filling the requested buy or sell order)
The best time to trade is when the market is the most active and therefore has the largest trading volume, trading all day long will not only deplete a trader's reserves quickly, but it can burn out even the most persistent trader. Knowing when the markets are more active will give traders peace of mind, that opportunities are not slipping away when they take their eyes off the markets or need to get a few hours of sleep
What does the Day Trading Booster do?
Day Trading Booster is designed ;
- to assist in determining market peak times, the times where better trading opportunities may arise
- to assist in determining the probable trading opportunities
- to help traders create their own strategies. An example strategy of when to trade or not is presented below
For Forex markets specifically includes
- Opening channel of Asian session, Europien session or both
- Opening price, opening range (5m or 15m) and day (session) range of the major trading center sessions, including Frankfurt
- A tabular view of the major forex markets oppening/closing hours, with a countdown timer
- A graphical presentation of typically traded volume and various forext markets oppening/clossing events (not only the major markets but many other around the world)
For All type of markets Day Trading Booster plots
- Day (Session) Open, 5m, 15m or 1h Opening Range
- Day (Session) Referance Levels, based on Average True Range (ATR) or Previous Day (Session) Range (PH - PL)
- Week and Month Open
Day Trading Booster also includes some of the day trader's preffered indicaotrs, such as ;
- VWAP - A custom interpretaion of VWAP is presented here with Auto, Interactive and Manual anchoring options.
- Pivot High/Low detection - Another custom interpretation of Pivot Points High Low indicator.
- A Moving Average with option to choose among SMA, EMA, WMA and HMA
An example strategy - Channel Bearkout Strategy
When day trading a trader usually monitors/analyzes lower timeframe charts and from time to time may loose insight of what really happens on the market from higher time porspective. Do not to forget to look at the larger time frame (than the one chosen to trade with) which gives the bigger picture of market price movements and thus helps to clearly define the trend
