High-Probability Scalper (Market Open)Market open is where volatility is real, spreads are tight, and momentum shows itself early. This scalping strategy is built specifically to operate during that window, filtering out low-quality signals that usually appear later in the session.
Instead of trading all day, the logic is restricted to the first 90 minutes after market open, where continuation moves and fast pullbacks are more reliable.
What This Strategy Does
This script looks for short-term momentum alignment using:
Fast vs slow EMA structure
RSI confirmation to avoid chasing extremes
ATR-based risk control
Session-based filtering to trade only when volume matters
It’s designed for intraday scalping, not swing trading.
Core Trading Logic
1. Market Open Filter
Trades are allowed only between 09:30 – 11:00 exchange time.
This avoids low-liquidity chop and focuses on the period where most breakouts and reversals form.
2. Trend Confirmation
Bullish bias: 9 EMA crosses above 21 EMA
Bearish bias: 9 EMA crosses below 21 EMA
This keeps trades aligned with short-term direction instead of random entries.
3. Momentum Check (RSI)
RSI is used as a quality filter, not as an overbought/oversold signal.
Long trades only when RSI is strong but not extended
Short trades only when RSI shows weakness without exhaustion
This removes late entries and reduces whipsaws.
Entries & Exits
Entries
Executed only on confirmed candles
No intrabar repainting
One position at a time
Risk Management
Stop-loss based on ATR
Take-profit calculated using a fixed risk–reward ratio
Same structure for both long and short trades
This keeps risk consistent across different symbols and volatility levels.
Why This Strategy Works Better at Market Open
Volume is highest
False breakouts are fewer
EMA crosses have follow-through
RSI behaves more cleanly
By not trading all day, the strategy avoids most of the noise that kills scalpers.
Best Use Cases
Index futures
High-liquidity stocks
Major crypto pairs during active sessions
1m to 5m timeframes
What This Strategy Is NOT
Not a martingale
Not grid-based
Not designed for ranging markets
Not a “set and forget” system
It’s a controlled scalping template meant for disciplined execution.
How to Use It Properly
Test on multiple symbols
Adjust ATR length for volatility
Tune RSI ranges per market
Always forward-test before live alerts
Final Note
This strategy focuses on structure, timing, and risk, not indicator stacking.
If you trade the open, this gives you a clear framework instead of emotional entries.
If you want:
Alerts
Session customization
News filters
Partial exits
You can extend this logic without breaking the core system.
Session-trading
Session Opening Range Breakout (ORBO)This strategy automates a classic Opening Range Breakout (ORBO) approach: it builds a price range for the first minutes after the market opens, then looks for strong breakouts above or below that range to catch early directional moves.
Concept
The idea behind ORBO is simple:
The first minutes after the session open are often highly informative.
Price forms an “opening range” that acts as a mini support/resistance zone.
A clean breakout beyond this zone can lead to high-momentum moves.
This script turns that logic into a fully backtestable strategy in TradingView.
How the strategy works
Opening Range Session
Default session: 09:30–09:50 (exchange time)
During this window, the script tracks:
orHigh → highest high within the session
orLow → lowest low within the session
This forms your Opening Range for the day.
Breakout Logic (after the window ends)
Once the defined session ends:
Long Entry:
If the close crosses above the Opening Range High (orHigh),
→ strategy.entry("OR Long", strategy.long) is triggered.
Short Entry:
If the close crosses below the Opening Range Low (orLow),
→ strategy.entry("OR Short", strategy.short) is triggered.
Only one opening range per day is considered, which keeps the logic clean and easy to interpret.
Daily Reset
At the start of a new trading day, the script resets:
orHigh := na
orLow := na
A fresh Opening Range is then built using the next session’s 09:30–09:50 candles.
This ensures entries are always based on today’s structure, not yesterday’s.
Visuals & Inputs
Inputs:
Opening range session → default: "0930-0950"
Show OR levels → toggle visibility of OR High / Low lines
Fill range body → optional shaded zone between OR High and OR Low
Chart visuals:
A green line marks the Opening Range High.
A red line marks the Opening Range Low.
Optional yellow fill highlights the entire OR zone.
Background shading during the session shows when the range is currently being built.
These visuals make it easy to see:
Where the OR sits relative to current price
How clean / noisy the breakout was
How often price respects or rejects the opening zone

TLC sessionA Professional Intraday Session Tracker with VWAP and Economic Event Integration
Description
This indicator provides visual tracking of major trading sessions (Asian, London, New York) combined with VWAP calculations and macroeconomic event zones. It's designed for intraday traders who need to monitor session overlaps, liquidity periods, and high-impact news events.
The basic script of trading sessions was taken as a basis and refined for greater convenience.
Key Features:
Customizable Session Tracking: Visualize up to 3 trading sessions with adjustable time zones (supports IANA & GMT formats)
Dynamic VWAP Integration: Built-in Volume-Weighted Average Price calculation
Macro Event Zones: Highlights key economic announcement windows (adjustable for summer/winter time)
Price Action Visualization: Displays open/close prices, session ranges, and average price levels
Automatic DST Adjustment: Uses IANA timezone database for daylight savings awareness
How It Works
1. Trading Session Detection
Three fully configurable sessions (e.g., Asia, London, New York)
Each session displays:
Colored background zone
Opening price (dashed line)
Closing price (dashed line)
Average price (dotted line)
Optional label with session name
2. VWAP Calculation
Standard Volume-Weighted Average Price plotted as circled line
Helps identify fair value within each session
3. Macro Event Zones
Special highlighted period for economic news releases
Automatically adjusts for summer/winter time
Default set to 1000-1200 (summer) or 0900-1100 (winter) GMT-5 (US session open)
Why This Indicator is Unique
Multi-Session Awareness
Unlike simple session indicators, this tool:
Tracks price development within each session
Shows session overlaps (critical for volatility periods)
Maintains separate VWAP calculations across sessions
Professional-Grade Features
IANA timezone support (automatic DST handling)
Customizable visual elements (toggle labels, ranges, averages)
Object-based architecture (clean, efficient rendering)
News event integration (helps avoid trading during high-impact releases)
Usage Recommendations
Best Timeframes
1-minute to 1-hour charts (intraday focus)
Not recommended for daily+ timeframes
Trading Applications
1. Session Breakout Strategy: Trade breakouts when London/New York sessions open
2. VWAP Reversion: Fade moves that deviate too far from VWAP
3. News Avoidance: Reduce position sizing during macro event windows
