SPY/SPX Expected Move📊 Expected Move + Session Levels (SPY / SPX)
Plots the day's expected move band plus the key session levels — automatic, refreshed daily before the open, nothing to enter or maintain.
🔹 Draws: Expected Move High/Low (the one-standard-deviation daily range implied by options pricing, anchored at the prior close), Prior Day High/Low, and Overnight High/Low (from the ES futures overnight session, rescaled to your chart). Optional shaded band and info table.
⚙️ Settings: every level toggles on/off individually; colors, line width, and label size are adjustable. The overnight source, session window, and IV index can be changed, and setting Horizon to 5 with VIX approximates the weekly move. Best on intraday timeframes.
⚠️ Note: the expected move is a statistical estimate, not a boundary — price is expected to close inside the band roughly two days out of three, and beyond it roughly one in three. Treat the edges as context, not walls; the market will go where it chooses. All levels are built from CBOE volatility indices, daily session data, and CME ES futures. Informational only, not trading advice. Indicator

Indicator
Liquidity Sweep Hunter & Targets | AlphaScript⚡ Liquidity Sweep Hunter & Targets
Tracks the High and Low of the Asia and London sessions, tells you exactly what happened to each level, and plots a risk-defined trade framework when a level is swept during the New York session.
This indicator is an upgrade to the : Session Sweep Detector
🔍 What it does
When a session closes, its High and Low become fixed liquidity levels. The indicator draws each level from the exact candle that printed the extreme and watches it until the same session opens again the next day.
Each level resolves in exactly one of three ways:
⚡ SWEEP — price wicks through the level but the bar closes back on the original side. A liquidity raid: stops were taken, but the level held on a closing basis.
💥 BREAK — a bar closes through the level. This is not a sweep, and the indicator never labels it as one. Breaks are displayed separately (and can be hidden) so the two events are never conflated.
🛡️ Untouched — the level survives its full watch window without either event.
First qualifying event wins: one outcome per level, per session, per day. If a bar both pierces and closes through a level, it counts as a break — a close through the level can never be a sweep.
🎯 NY Sweep Targets
When a session level is swept during the New York session, the indicator plots a risk-defined framework:
-Entry at the sweep bar's close
-Stop beyond the sweep wick or beyond the swept level (your choice), plus a tick buffer
-Four fully configurable R-multiple targets (default 1R / 1.5R / 2R / 3R)
-Optional risk / reward zone shading
A Low swept = bullish framework (targets above); a High swept = bearish (targets below). The targets are risk-multiple geometry measured from your entry and stop — planning levels for trade management, not predictions of where price will go.
📖 How to read the chart
-Solid colored lines are session levels, each starting at the candle that actually made the High or Low, so the line points at the liquidity itself.
-Every level line extends to the same right edge, so the name/price labels line up in a clean column.
-When a level is swept or broken, a tag prints at the event bar marking exactly where it happened.
-Previous sessions' levels remain on the chart as reference, with an option to keep or hide their labels.
⚙️ Settings
-Toggle each level independently (Asia High/Low, London High/Low), with per-session colors and fully configurable session hours (New York time; defaults: Asia 18:00–04:00, London 03:00–12:00).
-Minimum wick penetration filter (in ticks) to ignore marginal pokes when qualifying sweeps. Does not apply to breaks.
-Full control over the target framework: stop anchor, buffer, four R-multiples, line styles, colors, and optional risk/reward fills.
-Control how many previous sessions stay on the chart, whether previous-session labels are shown, and optional transparency for past levels.
🔔 Alerts
Per-level sweep alerts (Asia High/Low, London High/Low), combined "Any Sweep" and "Any Break" alerts, and an "NY Sweep Setup" alert that fires when a target framework is plotted. All alerts fire on the close of the event bar.
📌 Notes and limitations
-Designed for intraday timeframes (1 minute to 30 minutes). On higher timeframes, sessions span too few bars for meaningful detection.
-Session times are defined in New York time (America/New_York) and handle the midnight crossover correctly. If you use another session-levels indicator, match the session hours so both tools agree on where the levels are.
-The target framework is a trade-management and planning tool. Entry, stop, and R-targets are geometry based on the sweep — use your own analysis and risk management to decide whether and how to act on a setup.
-Sweep-vs-break classification depends on your chart timeframe: a wick-through-and-reclaim on a 15m bar may resolve as a break on 1m if an intermediate bar closed beyond the level. Neither reading is wrong — they answer different questions.
✅ Why no repaint
-Events are evaluated on confirmed (closed) bars only. A sweep or break tag will never appear intrabar and then vanish.
-Levels are only armed after their session has fully completed. A session High that is still forming cannot be "swept" — price touching it would simply extend it — so no detection runs until the level is final.
-No request.security() calls are used anywhere. All session tracking is chart-timeframe stat Indicator
ORB Engine | ANONYCRYPTOUSORB Engine | Anonycryptous
Description & user manual
Why this indicator is different
The opening range is one of the most studied concepts in intraday trading, and for good reason. The first fifteen minutes after a major session opens concentrates the most institutional activity of the day. Breakouts from that range, followed by a retest of the level, are among the most statistically consistent setups available on lower timeframes.
The problem is execution. Most opening range tools stop at the box. They draw a high and low, and leave the trader to figure out the rest: when to trade, how to confirm direction, where the liquidity sits, how to time the entry. That gap between the concept and a usable trade is where most ORB approaches fall apart in practice.
The ORB Engine closes that gap. It does not just draw a box. It tracks the full sequence from formation through confirmation through entry, enforces a discipline around when trades are allowed, maps the session liquidity levels that the price is most likely to target or react from, and scores each setup against five confluence criteria before a signal fires. The result is a complete framework for opening range trading that works across instruments and timeframes.
Important notice
The ORB Engine generates visual states based on price structure, volume confirmation, session timing, and liquidity context. These states are not financial advice. They do not predict future price movement. They do not guarantee profitability. All trading decisions are made entirely by the user. Always manage your own risk. Always apply your own judgment.
1. Overview
The ORB Engine is an overlay indicator that combines opening range detection, breakout confirmation, three entry modes, session liquidity mapping, and a five-point confluence scoring system into a single framework. It is designed for intraday scalping and day trading on any instrument and any timeframe below one hour.
What it includes:
- Opening range box (configurable start and end times) with high, low, and midpoint lines
- Wait period enforcement that blocks entries until the active window opens
- Master toggle to disable the wait period entirely for pure ORB breakout use
- Volume-confirmed breakout detection, active as soon as the box closes
- Three entry modes: midpoint retest, breakout retest, and immediate
- Stop loss and take profit lines (1:1, 1:2, 1:3) drawn on entry
- Trade close detection: dashboard and background reset when stop or final target is hit
- Session liquidity engine with live (dotted) and locked (solid) levels for Asia, London, and NY sessions
- Previous session levels with automatic P. prefix labeling
- Vertical session boundary lines at each session open and close
- Five-point confluence score shown in the dashboard
- Status background coloring: red during wait period, green after entry fires
- Full timezone support: all time inputs in the user's chosen UTC offset
- Dashboard with all live trade and session context
- Nine alert conditions
2. Core concepts
2.1 The opening range box
The box captures the high and low of a configurable time window at the start of the active trading session. The default is the first fifteen minutes of the New York session (14:00-14:15 Amsterdam / 08:00-08:15 New York), which concentrates the most institutional activity of the intraday day. The box is drawn as soon as it closes, with a solid high line, a solid low line, and a dotted midpoint line that extends as the session progresses.
The box range is shown in the dashboard. A narrow box suggests tight price discovery. A wide box suggests early volatility and may require a wider stop if trading it directly.
2.2 The wait period
Breakouts in the first sixty to ninety minutes after a major open are frequently false. Institutional players test liquidity in both directions before committing. The wait period blocks entries from firing until a configurable time, defaulting to 15:30 Amsterdam / 09:30 New York, when the first significant volume wave of the day typically confirms direction.
Critically, breakout direction is still tracked during the wait period. If price breaks above the box high at 14:30 and the wait ends at 15:30, the system already knows the direction is bullish when the active window opens. The entry trigger then watches for the configured retest from that point, without waiting for a new breakout signal.
The wait period can be disabled entirely with the master toggle. With it off, the entry triggers are active immediately after the box closes, which is useful for strategies that do not rely on the NY open timing.
2.3 Entry modes
Three entry modes cover the main ways traders approach ORB setups.
Midpoint retest: the most conservative mode. After a confirmed breakout, the indicator waits for price to pull back to the box midpoint, close on the correct side of it, and then fires the entry signal. This mode is best when the session shows clear reversion behavior after the initial breakout impulse.
Breakout retest: waits for price to retest the box boundary itself (high for a bull breakout, low for a bear breakout) after the initial breakout bar, and fires on a candle that touches the level and closes on the breakout side. This mode suits trending sessions where price breaks cleanly, pulls back briefly to the level, and then continues.
Immediate: fires directly on the confirmed breakout candle. If the breakout happened during the wait period, the entry fires on the first bar of the active window. This is the most aggressive mode and is appropriate when the trader expects strong directional continuation without a pullback.
2.4 Breakout confirmation
A breakout is not registered on a close outside the box alone. The breakout candle's volume must exceed the average volume by a configurable multiplier (default 1.3x). This filters breakouts driven by thin participation, which are more likely to fail on the retest. The volume average and multiplier are both adjustable.
2.5 Stop loss and take profit
The stop loss is placed beyond the opposite side of the box, with a small ATR-based buffer. The buffer multiplier is configurable, allowing tighter or wider placement depending on the instrument and timeframe.
Take profit targets are calculated at 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 risk-to-reward ratios from the entry level, each toggleable independently. All active levels are drawn as dashed lines from the entry bar and labeled on the chart. The dashboard shows the price levels for active targets.
When the stop is hit or the final active take profit is reached, the dashboard resets to a neutral state. The chart lines remain as a visual record.
2.6 Retest timeout
The retest modes have a configurable bar-count timeout. If price does not return to the required level within that number of bars after the active window opens (or after the breakout, if the wait period is off), the setup expires. The dashboard shows the expired state. The default is 100 bars, which on a 1-minute chart is 100 minutes and on a 5-minute chart is roughly eight hours, so adjust this per timeframe and strategy.
3. Session liquidity engine
3.1 Why session levels matter
Price does not move randomly between sessions. The high and low of the Asia, London, and NY sessions represent pools of resting orders: stops clustered above highs, stops clustered below lows. These are the levels institutional flow targets first. A breakout above the ORB box that is also pushing toward an untested session high is a very different proposition from a breakout into empty space.
The ORB Engine maps these levels automatically and keeps them visible across the session, so the confluence between the ORB setup and the nearest liquidity pool is always visible at a glance.
3.2 Live and locked levels
While a session is in progress, the indicator draws dotted lines for the developing high and low. These lines update in real time as new extremes are set within the window. If price sweeps through what was the high at 03:00 before London has closed, the dotted line moves up immediately, reflecting the new developing high. This prevents the missed sweep problem where a level was set early and then exceeded without the chart updating.
When a session closes, the dotted lines are replaced by solid locked lines. These represent the final confirmed high and low of that session.
3.3 Tested and untested levels
Once a session closes, its levels are tracked for mitigation. If price returns to a locked level and wicks through it, the level is marked as tested by fading to a configurable transparency. It does not disappear. Tested levels can act as re-entry points or warn that a previous pool has been cleared. The untested level count in the dashboard tells you how many unmitigated levels are still active on the chart.
3.4 Previous session levels
When a new session begins, the previous session's locked levels are relabeled with a P. prefix (e.g., P.Asia.H, P.NY.L) immediately at the start of the new session, not when it closes. This makes it immediately clear which levels are current and which are historical. The show previous day toggle controls whether one additional day of locked levels is retained alongside today's.
3.5 Vertical session lines
Vertical lines mark the open and close of each session window in the session's color. Style (solid or dotted) and width are configurable. The lines appear only for the current day and are cleaned up automatically at the next session start.
4. Confluence score
The dashboard shows a five-point confluence score for the current setup, displayed as a bar-style meter (▰▰▰▱▱) with the numeric value alongside. The five criteria are:
1. Box formed: the opening range has closed and the high, low, and midpoint are locked.
2. Volume confirmed: the breakout candle exceeded the volume threshold.
3. Liquidity bias consistent: the breakout direction aligns with the nearest untested session level in that direction (e.g., a bull breakout with an untested high above is a stronger setup than a bull breakout with no untested level overhead).
4. Retest within time: the entry fired before the timeout expired.
5. Risk-to-reward viable: the stop distance is within a configurable multiple of the box range, confirming the setup is not overextended.
A score of 3 or above indicates a setup where multiple factors are confirming each other. A score of 1 or 2 means fewer criteria are met and the setup carries more uncertainty. The score updates live.
5. Timezone and session configuration
All time inputs in the ORB Engine are entered in the user's own timezone. Set your UTC offset once in the Timezone group at the top of the settings, and then enter box start, box end, active window start, session end, and all session liquidity windows in your local clock time. The indicator converts everything to New York time internally.
The dashboard shows a live local clock (Now), the box and active window times in your timezone (Box / Active), and the current UTC offset in the row label so the conversion is always visible.
This design means users in Amsterdam, Dubai, Singapore, or New York all configure the same indicator the same way, in the time they think in, without manually calculating offsets.
6. Status background coloring
The chart background changes state with the setup:
- No background: before the box forms, or after the session ends.
- Red tint: the box has formed and the wait period is active. Entries are blocked.
- Green tint: an entry has fired and the trade is active.
The background colors, their transparency, and whether they are shown at all are individually configurable. The default transparency is high enough to not obscure the candles.
7. Dashboard reference
The dashboard updates on every bar and shows:
Box Status - forming, formed, or —.
Box Range - the distance between the box high and low in ticks.
Wait Status - waiting with remaining minutes, active, disabled, or —.
Breakout - bull, bear, or none.
Entry Mode - the currently selected entry mode.
Midpoint Retest / Breakout Retest / Entry Trigger - the retest status: waiting, fired, expired, or —.
Entry - long, short, or —.
Confluence Score - the five-point bar meter and numeric value.
TP Levels - price levels for each active take profit target, or — if no trade is open.
Session / Untested - the current session name and the count of untested liquidity levels.
Now (UTC offset) - the current local clock time in the configured timezone.
Box / Active - the box window and active window start times in local time.
8. Alerts
Nine alert conditions are available:
- Bull breakout: a volume-confirmed close above the box high.
- Bear breakout: a volume-confirmed close below the box low.
- Long entry signal: a long entry trigger has fired.
- Short entry signal: a short entry trigger has fired.
- Long stop loss hit: the long trade stop has been reached.
- Short stop loss hit: the short trade stop has been reached.
- Long final TP hit: the long trade reached the final active take profit.
- Short final TP hit: the short trade reached the final active take profit.
- Near untested liquidity level: price is within a configurable ATR distance of an untested session level.
9. How to use
9.1 Basic workflow
Set your timezone. Enter the box and session times in your local clock. The wait period defaults to the New York 09:30 open equivalent in your timezone, which is when the most reliable ORB confirmations historically occur.
Let the box form. The dashboard shows the forming state during the box window and transitions to formed when it closes. The box range gives you an immediate read on how much price discovery happened.
Observe the breakout. The system detects breakouts as soon as the box closes, even during the wait period. The dashboard shows the breakout direction and a dot appears on the breakout candle. With the wait period on, the background turns red and entries are blocked.
Wait for the active window. When the wait period ends, the background stays neutral and the entry trigger activates. Depending on the entry mode, it is now watching for a midpoint touch, a boundary retest, or it already fired immediately at the open of the active window.
Check the score. A confluence score of 3 or above with a clean entry signal in the context of a nearby untested session level is the strongest combination the system can produce.
9.2 Entry mode selection
Use midpoint retest on sessions that show clear pullback behavior after the initial breakout impulse. Use breakout retest on sessions that trend strongly but pause briefly at the broken level before continuing. Use immediate when price is moving fast and a retest is unlikely, or when you want to be positioned as early as possible in the active window.
9.3 Session levels as context
Before entering any signal, check which session levels are nearby. An entry directly into an untested opposite-side level is likely to stall or reverse at that level. An entry away from all untested levels, in the direction of the next unmitigated pool, is a cleaner setup. The dashboard untested count and the live chart lines give you this context without any additional tools.
9.4 Illustrative bull scenario
Educational example only. Not a trading recommendation.
The opening range forms between 14:00 and 14:15 with a 20-point range. At 14:35, a candle closes above the box high on 1.6 times average volume. The breakout is confirmed as bull, and the wait period background turns red. At 15:30 the active window opens. Price is still above the box high and the midpoint retest mode is active. At 15:42, price dips back to the midpoint, wicks it, and closes above. The entry fires long. Score is 4/5: box formed, volume confirmed, retest in time, and RR viable. The NY.L below is the nearest untested level, well below the stop, so it is not a concern. TP1 is hit 18 minutes later.
9.5 Illustrative bear scenario
Educational example only. Not a trading recommendation.
A narrow 12-point box forms and breaks below the low at 14:28 on heavy volume. The breakout retest mode is selected. The wait period holds entries. At 15:30, price is trading 30 points below the box low. The system begins watching for a pullback back to the box low. At 15:44, price rallies back to the box low, taps it, and closes below. Short entry fires. Score is 3/5. Stop is placed above the box high with ATR buffer. TP2 is reached before the session ends.

11. Known limitations
The ORB Engine is designed for sessions that produce a directional move after the opening range. It performs best when the market has a clear bias — a breakout in one direction that holds and then retests cleanly before continuing.
In choppy, sideways price action, the indicator will produce repeated stop loss hits. If the opening range is narrow and price oscillates around the box boundaries without committing to a direction, a breakout in one direction can be followed immediately by a breakout in the opposite direction. Because the system locks breakout direction on the first confirmed move, subsequent reversals are not re-evaluated as a new setup within the same session. The result in choppy conditions is typically one or two stop loss hits before the session ends without a valid directional move.
This is not a flaw in the indicator — it reflects the reality that opening range strategies depend on directional follow-through. On days where the market is consolidating at the session open, no ORB approach will perform well. The confluence score provides some protection: a score below 3 indicates fewer confirming factors and may warrant sitting on the sidelines. The session liquidity levels can also help — if there is no clear untested level in the breakout direction, the setup has no obvious target and the probability of follow-through is lower.
The volume confirmation filter reduces false breakouts in thin conditions, but it does not eliminate them on highly volatile instruments where even noise candles can exceed the volume threshold. On assets with very low liquidity, the breakout volume multiplier should be raised above the default 1.3 to filter more aggressively.
On very low timeframes such as 1-minute charts, the retest timeout in bars covers fewer minutes. A timeout of 100 bars on a 1-minute chart gives 100 minutes of window. Adjust the timeout per timeframe to reflect how long a valid retest can realistically take on the instrument you are trading.

Minimal Sessions LiquiditiesDescription
The Session Liquidities indicator is an advanced, automated toolkit for traders who rely on time-based liquidity sweeps and daily structural levels. It automatically highlights the high and low price points for the most actively traded sessions in the market and tracks them dynamically.
Instead of manually drawing horizontal rays across your chart every day, this script does the heavy lifting by identifying the highs and lows of six distinct timeframes (all strictly mapped to Eastern Time / New York Time) and carrying them forward until they are interacted with.
🕒 Sessions Tracked
The engine tracks liquidity boundaries for the following key windows:
Asian Session (AS): 20:00 - 00:00 ET
London Session (LN): 02:00 - 05:00 ET
New York AM Session (NY AM): 09:30 - 11:30 ET
New York Lunch Session (NY LN): 12:00 - 13:00 ET
New York PM Session (NY PM): 13:30 - 16:30 ET
Current Day (CD): 18:00 - 16:55 ET
✨ Key Features
Dynamic Liquidity Extensions: Once a session closes, its high and low lines are automatically extended forward into future price action, acting as pristine liquidity magnets.
Stop When Swept: An optional setting allows you to stop drawing the liquidity line exactly on the candle where the price eventually sweeps (crosses) it. This prevents your chart from being cluttered by old, invalidated liquidity levels.
Previous Day (PD) Memory: The script remembers historical session data. When a new day begins, the script automatically re-labels the previous day's untouched levels to "PD" (e.g., PD AS H for Previous Day Asian High), or D-2 for older levels.
Smart Overlap Merging: It's very common for two sessions to share the exact same high or low. To keep your charts incredibly sleek, the engine actively scans for overlapping labels. If two liquidity pools rest at the exact same tick, it merges their labels into a single comma-separated text (e.g., Current Day High, AS L) and removes the redundant visual clutter.
Customizable Lookback: Control exactly how many historical days of liquidity you want to track (up to 40 days) to match your trading style without overwhelming your screen.
⚙️ Settings
Sessions to Show: Toggle any of the 6 individual sessions on or off.
Session Colors: Fully customize the color of the lines and labels for each specific session.
Lookback Limit: Adjust how many historical periods are kept on the chart (1 = Current Only, 2 = Current + Previous Day).
Stop Lines When Swept: Toggle whether the line should extend indefinitely or terminate upon contact with price.
Label Size: Change the typography size (defaults to Tiny for a professional, unobtrusive aesthetic). Indicator
Multi-Session LevelsMulti-Session Levels is a clean, all-in-one levels and sessions tool. It plots the key higher-timeframe reference levels — previous day, week and month highs and lows — alongside live session ranges with gradient fills, and summarises everything in a dashboard that shows your distance to each level at a glance.
- Built to stay readable
The aim is a chart that gives context without clutter. Levels are drawn as single labelled lines colour-coded by period, the session ranges use soft gradient fills rather than hard boxes, and the numeric detail lives in one compact dashboard instead of being scattered across the chart. Price-scale markers mirror each level on the axis, so you can still see where they sit even when scrolled away from the labels.
-Reference levels (previous day / week / month)
The script tracks the running high and low of the current day, week and month, and when each period rolls over it locks the completed range as the "previous" level:
- Previous day high/low (PDH/PDL), previous week high/low (PWH/PWL), previous month high/low (PMH/PML).
- The daily boundary rolls at 22:00 GMT (around the New York close / forex day boundary), so "previous day" reflects the prior trading day rather than the calendar midnight.
- Each level extends to the right by a configurable number of bars and is labelled with its price; line colour, style and width are set per period.
-Equilibrium lines (optional)
For each period the script can plot the 50% midpoint between its high and low — the equilibrium — a level many traders watch for mean reversion or as a decision point inside the range.
-Session ranges with gradient fill
Four sessions are tracked by GMT time windows — Sydney, Tokyo, London and New York — each drawn as a high/low band with labels. The band is shaded with a gradient fill so you can watch a session's range build as it progresses and tell sessions apart at a glance:
- Vertical mode tints the band with your chosen bullish colour toward the top and bearish colour toward the bottom.
- Horizontal mode tints the fill by short-term momentum, using a smoothed measure of candle direction, so the session shades toward green while price is pushing up and red while it is pushing down.
To keep charts responsive, the gradient fill is limited to roughly the last 35 days of data; the lines and labels for the active sessions remain.
-Dashboard
A compact table (position and text size configurable) shows, for every reference level, its price and your current distance to it. Distance can be displayed as a percentage, in pips (with automatic handling of 5-digit and 3-digit JPY pricing) or in ticks. It also shows the current active session and highlights the single nearest level, with an arrow indicating whether each level sits above or below the current price. Ten colour themes are included.
-How to use it
These are reference and context levels, not entry signals — the levels mark where reactions are likely, and you bring your own entry trigger and risk management. Some common approaches:
Reversion at a level. Previous day, week and month highs and lows often act as support and resistance, especially the first time price reaches them. A move into a level that then stalls and prints a rejection (a reaction candle, or a shift in structure on a lower timeframe) is a fade back toward the middle of the range. Risk sits just beyond the level; the opposite level or the equilibrium is a natural target.
Breakout and retest. When price closes decisively through a level, that level often flips role — a broken high becomes support, a broken low becomes resistance. Rather than chasing the break, many traders wait for price to come back and retest the level from the other side, then enter in the breakout direction with risk on the wrong side of the level. The six break alerts are designed for exactly this: they tell you the moment a level gives way so you can watch for the retest.
Equilibrium as a bias line. The 50% midpoint of a period's range splits it into a premium half and a discount half. Trading in the upper half leans bullish for that period and the lower half bearish; some traders only look for longs while price holds above equilibrium and shorts below it, using the line as a simple filter.
Session framing. Use the session ranges to read the rhythm of the day. A common pattern is the Asian range setting the boundaries, then London or New York expanding out of it — watch whether a session breaks the prior session's high or low and holds, or sweeps it and reverses back inside. The gradient fill makes the direction of the active session easy to read at a glance.
Confluence. The strongest reactions tend to come where more than one thing lines up — for example, a previous week high meeting the top of the London range, or a daily level sitting right at equilibrium. Use the dashboard's distance readouts to see how close price is to the nearest level before you commit, so you are trading into a level rather than into open space.
Whatever the approach, the levels define where to be interested; your own confirmation defines when to act.
-Alerts
Six separate, individually-selectable alerts fire when price closes across a level: previous day high or low, previous week high or low, and previous month high or low. Set them to "Once Per Bar Close" so they match the close-based logic.
-Credits
The gradient session colouring was inspired by Session Streaks , an open-source script where I first came across the idea of shading sessions by their bullish or bearish bias. The gradient fill here is built with Pine Script's standard fill() and color.from_gradient() functions, and the rest of the script — level tracking, session ranges, dashboard and alerts — is my own work. Credit and thanks to LuxAlgo.

Session Levels IQ [TradingIQ]Hello Traders!
🔹 Session Levels IQ
Session Levels IQ is a session-based percentage grid tool designed to map how far price typically travels away from each session open.
Instead of treating a session as a simple open-high-low-close range, this tool builds a structured level framework around the session open and tracks which distances tend to get reached, how often they get reached, and what price typically does after touching them .
Think of it as a way to study session expansion behavior around the open .
This indicator records historical observations to show what typically happens.
It’s not a strict probability model, but more of a history book of past behavior.
session-based percentage levels built outward from the open
custom session or timeframe-based session construction
hit-rate tracking for each distance level
typical move-after-hit measurement
normal vs unusual level zoning
optional coloring by historical hit rate or move-after-hit
reference price line for inspecting post-hit behavior
🔹 What the tool shows
🔸 Session-centered level grid
Each session begins from its opening price, and the script builds levels outward in configurable percentage intervals.
This creates a structured grid above and below the session open, helping you visualize how price expands relative to where the session started.
This helps reveal:
how far price tends to travel from the session open
which percentage distances are reached most often
how session expansion behaves over time
🔸 Historical hit rate by level
The script tracks whether each percentage level gets touched across completed sessions.
Over time, this produces a running statistical view of how often price reaches specific distances from the open.
This allows you to observe:
which distances are commonly reached
which distances are less typical
where session expansion begins to become unusual
🔸 Typical move after hit
In addition to tracking whether a level is reached, the script also records what price typically does after touching that level.
For levels that get hit, it measures the median follow-through after contact.
This helps show:
whether certain levels tend to lead to larger continuation
whether some levels produce relatively small follow-through
how post-hit behavior differs across the grid
This is not just about whether price gets somewhere.
It is also about what tends to happen once it gets there .
🔸 Normal vs unusual zones
A configurable normal range defines which distances from the open are considered relatively typical and which fall outside that range.
Levels inside this zone are treated as normal, while levels beyond it are treated as more unusual.
This helps identify:
common session movement areas
stretched or less typical expansion zones
where price is trading beyond its more ordinary session behavior
🔸 Level coloring modes
The script can visually color levels in different ways depending on what you want to study.
Available modes include:
By Hit Chance
By Move After
None
With hit-chance coloring, levels are shaded based on how frequently they are reached.
With move-after coloring, levels are shaded based on the magnitude of the typical move after price touches them.
This makes it easier to spot:
frequently reached levels
less common extension areas
levels associated with larger follow-through
🔸 Custom session support
You can build the framework using either:
a standard session timeframe such as 1D
a fully custom intraday session window
This makes the tool flexible for traders who want to study:
daily opens
custom market sessions
specific trading windows
🔸 Whole-number level emphasis
The script can optionally emphasize whole-number percentage distances so that major percentage thresholds stand out more clearly on the chart.
This can help when you want to quickly distinguish:
major percentage levels
minor intermediate levels
cleaner structural reference points
🔸 Reference price line
An optional draggable reference line lets you place a price directly onto a level and inspect the typical move after that level is hit.
This gives you a visual way to explore:
how levels behave after being reached
which zones tend to continue further
which levels show more limited follow-through
This feature is best viewed as exploratory context , not as a standalone signal.
🔸 Session range box
The script can also draw a box around the current session’s working range, helping frame the active expansion area as the session develops.
This gives additional context for:
the current session’s high-to-low development
where the grid sits relative to the active range
how much of the session’s expansion has already formed
🔹 How to read it
Each component provides a different layer of session information:
Session open → anchor point for the grid
Percentage levels → structured expansion distances from the open
Hit chance → how often a level gets reached across sessions
Move after hit → typical follow-through once a level is touched
Normal range → common vs unusual expansion territory
Reference line → exploratory view of post-hit behavior
🔹 Why this tool is useful
It gives you:
a structured way to study session expansion around the open
historical context for which distances are commonly reached
visibility into which extensions are relatively unusual
insight into what price typically does after contacting a level
a contextual framework for session movement analysis
🔹 Best use cases
studying how far sessions typically expand from the open
identifying common vs stretched extension zones
comparing likely and unlikely distance levels
adding structure to open-based session analysis
exploring how price tends to behave after touching key percentage levels
🔹 Important note
This tool is based on historical session behavior and percentage-distance tracking.
That means:
it is descriptive, not predictive certainty
results depend on the instrument and timeframe being analyzed
smaller level spacing creates more detail, but also more density
typical move-after-hit is informational and should not be treated too literally
🔹 Inputs you can customize
The script includes flexible controls such as:
custom session toggle
custom session time
session timeframe
level spacing percentage
normal range percentage
label detail level
label size
label side
show all stored levels
whole-number level emphasis
session range box display
level coloring mode
reference price line
Closing Notes
Session Levels IQ is built to shift the focus from simply asking where price is now to asking how far price has historically tended to travel from a session open, how often those levels are reached, and what usually happens after contact .
It helps turn session expansion into a more structured and measurable framework , so you can view open-based movement with more context than raw candles alone.

Key Levels - ChartDNAKey Levels - ChartDNA, plots the most important price levels across all major timeframes:
• 4H, Daily, Monday Range, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Yearly, and FX sessions (London, New York, Tokyo) — directly on your chart.
What makes this different:
• Touch Detection — when price wicks through a level, the line disappears and only the label remains (in a configurable grey colour), so you always know which levels are still untagged and which have already been tested.
• Glow Effect — a semi-transparent halo renders behind each active line for instant visual clarity on busy charts.
• Clean label positioning — labels sit at the right end of each line with a user-adjustable offset, never overlapping the line itself.
All levels, colours, line styles, widths, and label sizes are fully configurable. Open-source. Based on original work by @sbtnc.

Killzones & Key LevelsThe ICT Killzones + Key Levels indicator is a comprehensive technical analysis tool that consolidates institutional trading logic and ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts into a single interface. Its primary distinction lies in optimizing all calculations based on actual market opening times—specifically the New York 18:00 session rollover—rather than the standard midnight (00:00) reset.
It visually represents critical Killzone regions, such as Asia, London, New York AM/PM, and New York Lunch, using dynamic boxes on the chart. These zones highlight periods of peak volatility and liquidity, clarifying areas where price is most likely to react. Additionally, it calculates session-based Daily, Weekly, and Monthly (DWM) open levels to align with institutional data, making intraday bias much easier to determine.
The indicator provides a True Day Open (TDO => NYMO) level as a vital reference point throughout the day while automatically tracking Previous Day, Week, and Month Highs and Lows (H/L). By drawing vertical day-divider lines at 18:00, it allows traders to see the "true" trading day. This enables Futures and Forex traders to analyze market cycles based on institutional liquidity flow rather than just calendar hours.
Finally, it includes a volatility analysis table that displays the current price range for each session. With a fully customizable structure, you can adjust sessions, colors, and timeframes to fit your specific strategy. In essence, this tool serves as a professional roadmap for Smart Money Concepts (SMC) traders who prioritize session structure over traditional timekeeping. Indicator
Sessions Suite [claysul]Sessions Suite plots market sessions, previous day/week/month levels, daily/weekly/monthly open prices, customizable open prices, day of the week separator, and 90m cycles. Every feature can be toggled independently, with full customization over session times, labels, lines, and colors. All session times use the America/New_York timezone and automatically adjust for daylight savings time.
Sessions:
- Shaded session boxes are drawn for up to 5 fully customizable sessions. Defaults include Asia (6:00–12:00 AM EST), London (12:00–6:00 AM), NY AM (6:00 AM–12:00 PM), NY PM (12:00–6:00 PM), and NY Lunch (off by default). Each session's name, time range, and color are editable.
- Toggle session boxes on/off independently from lines and labels, allowing you to show only the high/low lines without the shaded boxes.
- Toggle session borders on/off.
