Forex Session OverlapApplies gray background coloring for each major active Forex session, the more sessions active the lighter the background. Adjusted coloring for low (Sydney, Tokyo) and high (Frankfurt, London, New York) liquidity. Market opening hours for Sydney, Tokyo, Frankfurt, London and New York have been set to 08:00 - 17:00 local time and are converted to EST while taking daylight saving time into account across regions (REMEMBER: configure manually!). Sessions can be turned on or off separately. By default this indicator hides itself in larger time-frames (>30min by default). Enabling session breaks or daily pivots helps distinguish between sessions.

samc's FX SESSIONS - on candles So, based on my 8 yrs of experience and over a 2 decade worth of back testing on FX majors pairs one thing i can univocally affirm to the fact that Timing is everything especially in the currency markets.
so i made this indicator to help reduce the noise and focus on signals which is coded by time,
now i made this as GMT+8 in focus but you can adjust based on your requirements.
I classified my indicator colors according to the inter-SESSION High Impact areas only as following :
Primary session colors:
ASIAN - YELLOW
EU - BLUE
US - Magenta (light)
and every first 10 mins of the hour (Great for scalping)
i marked them in a shade of grey.
secondary sessions i marked them as minor sessions.
PRE-EU 1hr of expected trend i marked in color green
and
after hours in a shade of color violet.
so i usually make my candles into light grey by default and remove the body and wicks to minimize the visual stimulus so that this indicator will work great with both dark and light themes and does not obstruct other indicators.
also i made an option to uncheck my naming scheme of session on the top right.
VWAP Open Session Anchored by HampehThe VWAP Open Session Anchored indicator differs from traditional VWAP indicators by automatically anchoring the Volume Weighted Average Price calculation to three market session starts Morning, Evening, and Night. Each session represents a distinct time period within the trading day, offering traders and investors a more comprehensive view of the volume-weighted average price within specific sessions.
What Is the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP)?
The volume-weighted average price (VWAP) is a technical analysis indicator used on intraday charts that resets at the start of every new trading session.
VWAP is important because it provides traders with pricing insight into both the trend and value of a security.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
1. The volume-weighted average price (VWAP) is a single line on intraday charts.
2. It looks similar to a moving average line but smoother.
3. VWAP represents a view of price action throughout a single day's trading session.
4. Retail and professional traders may use the VWAP to help them determine intraday price trends.
5. VWAP typically is most useful to short-term traders.
VWAP is calculated by totaling the dollars traded for every transaction (price multiplied by the volume) and then dividing by the total shares traded.
VWAP = Cumulative Typical Price x Volume/Cumulative Volume
Where Typical Price = High price + Low price + Closing Price/3
Cumulative = total since the trading session opened.
How Is VWAP Used?
VWAP is used in different ways by traders. Traders may use VWAP as a trend confirmation tool and build trading rules around it. For instance, they may consider stocks with prices below VWAP as undervalued and those with prices above it, as overvalued. If prices below VWAP move above it, traders may go long on the stock. If prices above VWAP move below it, they may sell their positions or initiate short positions.
Institutional buyers including mutual funds use VWAP to help move into or out of stocks with as small of a market impact as possible. Therefore, when they can, institutions will try to buy below the VWAP or sell above it. This way their actions push the price back toward the average, instead of away from it.

Phantom - My Session RangeThis is a modification of a script by RobMinty, "FXN - Asian Session Range" The script provides functionality to track specific trading sessions based on user preference rather than just the market sessions open and close. The idea is to help you hold yourself accountable to your specific trading times as well as backtest various marketing timings suitable to your schedule.
This script utilizes RobMinty's pine code to visualize your market session. We have adjusted the script to project the end of the session before the candles print - as well as adding/subtracting the horizontal and/or vertical lines around the current session box. This should help you understand how much time you have left in your session with a quick visual representation. While we have made some additions and adjustments to RobMinty's script- The inputs and functions of the combined script have not changed significantly from the originals. Like the originals, the code has been made open-source. If this script is reused or modified, please provide credit to RobMinty. If you plan to use this specific code with the ability to remove lines from the box and project session end forward, please credit both of us.

Kviateq - Session Pivots for CryptoPretty much the exact same indicator as my other Session Pivots, however this one also shows the weekends and the session times are set to Bitmex exchange (note: I'm in a GMT+7 timezone myself).
KZ SessionsThis shows killzone sessions for London NY, Asia sessions.
In addition to the opening hours of session, the pre-market and closing time periods are also marked with a grey color
Generally these are consided period of high activity and can experience more volatility in these periods
I also have enabled it to display the session times even on weekends. There is no session open at such times but heightened activity is noticed in these periods even on weekends.
If want to disable showing it on weekends, then remove ":1234567" from all the lines in code

Incomplete Session Candle - Incomplete Timeframe Candle Marker The "Incomplete Session Candle - Incomplete Timeframe Candle Marker" is an advanced tool tailored for technical analysts who understand the importance of accurate timeframes in their charting. While the indicator is not limited to the Indian market, its genesis is rooted in the nuances of trading sessions like those in India, which span 375 minutes from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM.
Key Features:
Detects if the current timeframe is intraday (minutes or hours).
Calculates the expected duration of the candle for the chosen timeframe.
Highlights candles that don't achieve their expected session duration by placing a cross shape above the bar.
Compatible across various intraday timeframes, aiding traders in spotting discrepancies promptly.
Why We Made This: Not Just for India:
While we looked at the Indian market, this indicator works everywhere. Regular timeframes like 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 2 hours often end with incomplete candles, especially at the end of the trading day. For example:
A 30-minute timeframe makes 13 candles, but the last one is only 15 minutes long.
A 1-hour timeframe shows 7 candles, but the last one is just the last 15 minutes.
By switching to different timeframes like 25 minutes, 75 minutes, and 125 minutes, you get more complete information for better trading decisions. Learn more about this in our article: "Power of 25, 75, and 125-Minute Timeframes in the Indian Market", recognized by Trading View's Editors' Pick.
Benefits:
The indicator extends its benefits even to users without access to certain timeframes. It accommodates traders using a 1-hour timeframe (pertaining to Indian traders). By employing this indicator, traders consistently remain mindful of incomplete candles within their chosen timeframe
For those who utilize concepts like RBR, RBD, DBR, and DBD, this indicator is paramount. An incomplete candle can skew analysis, leading to potential misinterpretations of base or leg candles.
Final thoughts:
In markets like the Indian stock market, adopting such a tool is not just beneficial, but necessary. Whether you have access to unconventional timeframes or are using traditional ones, recognizing and accounting for the limitations of incomplete candles is critical & it's important to know if your candles fit the timeframe properly. This indicator gives you a better view of the market, which helps you make smarter trades.

Futures Exchange Sessions 3.0Description
The ultimate conclusion to the Futures Exchange Sessions 2.0 indicator. In version 3.0 the user gets full control of the start and end times of three separate dynamic boxes and one horizontal line. If the user wants to visually keep track of killzones, lunches, or any other time span in a trading day, version 3.0 will dynamically expand and keep track of price within the time specified by the user.
Inputs and Style
Everything about the three dynamic boxes and one horizontal line can but independently configured. Color, style, border, width can all be adjusted. In the Settings each box has a text box so the user can give each one a unique name.
Timezone
All of the start and end times are in EST. Additionally, each box and line need a dependent start of each day. This is controlled by a setting where the user can specify a timezone called Start Day Timezone which would be midnight of the respective timezone. In general if a box or line resides within a particular Session pick the corresponding timezone. If the users box/line fits in the Asian Session then choose Asia/Shanghai. If the box/line is within the London Session then choose Europe/London. And the same goes for the New York Session.
Special Notes
If start time is within one period of the Start Day Timezone in the Settings, then the line/box won't display
Boxes and time lines only display when timeframe is <= 30 minute
To turn off box text label set opacity to 0%
Kviateq - Session PivotsFirst of all, I must say that this script wouldn't be possible without the help of one of the best script developers on TradingView - @ahancock (thanks a bunch for your help)
This script draws opening ranges for each of the sessions - Tokyo, London and New York and plots session high, low and pivot range of the previous session.
So if you trade London session - you would only take longs if we're above the Tokyo pivot range and vice versa for shorts.
Often times previous session's highs act as resistance and lows act as support, so careful trading around those levels.
It is obviously meant for lower timeframes, since each of the sessions only lasts a few hours.
Default settings are set to the exchange that I use and my timezone (GMT +7), so you might need to adjust the settings accordingly.
Tokyo - 12am GMT
London - 7am GMT
New York - 12pm GMT
London ORB + Session High/Low + FVGLondon ORB + Session High/Low + FVG
📘 Script Description: London ORB + Session High/Low + Fair Value Gap
This script is designed to assist intraday traders during the London session open by combining:
🕒 1. Opening Range Breakout (ORB)
Captures the high and low of the first 15-minute candle after the London open (08:00–08:15 GMT).
Draws lines and labels for the ORB High and Low levels.
Detects breakouts above or below the ORB and plots a triangle signal at the breakout bar.
🌐 2. Asian & US Session Levels
Automatically marks the highs and lows of the Asian (00:00–06:00 GMT) and US (13:30–20:00 GMT) sessions.
Useful for identifying prior session liquidity zones, key support/resistance levels, and potential reaction areas.
📉 3. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Highlights imbalances in price action between non-overlapping candles (also known as FVGs or inefficiencies).
Draws a shaded box between candles where gaps exist:
Green for bullish FVGs
Red for bearish FVGs
🔔 4. Alert Support
Optional alerts are built in for:
Long breakout (price breaks above ORB)
Short breakout (price breaks below ORB)
🎯 Use Case
Perfect for:
Day traders looking to capitalize on early volatility at the London open
Traders using liquidity-based strategies, retests, or gap-fills
Visualizing and aligning with prior session highs/lows for structure and context
Hotch SessionSimple Session timer with separate session for Asia, Europe, and the Americas plus an extra custom session timer. each can be turned on and off separately.
The indicator also plots the highs and lows of each session.
This code was modified from the Session timer code found in the original "The Arty" by PheonixBinary but expanded to better include all trading sessions.
The code was written in a manner to be as compact as possible. I had looked at many other Session timers and found entire input sections that were longer than the entirety of this indicator.
Please feel free to use this code in any manner you choose permission not required.
ICT Session Killzone Boxes & DeviationsICT Killzone Sessions Boxes & Deviations is a convenience indicator that marks out past and future ICT killzones for Asia, London, and New York, London Close and CBDR.
The boxes highlights the highest and lowest candle opens of that session/killzone, which is what the deviations are based on. Two lines mark out the highest high and lowest low of that session.
This indicator also includes New York midnight opening price and a vertical divider showing you that time.
Future killzones are also marked out.
All times are set to GMT-4 so these boxes should work across most exchanges. Times and code can be changed if a few don't match up.
Included are week of day labels for your convenience.
For those who are unfamiliar, ICT Killzones are optimal times to look for trades during or before a session, often providing entry for trades with orderblock tests, FVG fills or stophunts.
Please note: This indicator only works well on 1HR timeframe and below. The default max timeframe setting is set to 15min, which can be changed in the menu.
There may be some bugs so please highlight anything you find in the comments below :)
Shout out to @Ryazn for all the ideas!
