Sessions

Sessions is a trading toolkit that displays the different trading sessions on your chart during a trading day. By default, Sessions displays the four standard trading sessions; New York, Tokyo, London, and Sydney.

Each of the four sessions can be toggled, and the Sessions indicator is completely customizable, allowing users to define their own sessions to be generated by the script.

The aim of this script is to improve the trading experience of users by automatically displaying information about each default or custom session to the user.


USAGE

This script will automatically detect and label different market sessions. By default, the script will identify the four standard trading sessions, but each of these can be toggled off in the settings.

However, users are not limited to these four trading sessions and have the ability to define their own sessions to be identified by the script. When a session begins, the script will automatically start outlining the market data of that session, including the high and low of the period that is represented by the session.

If the market is within two or more sessions at the same time, then each session will be treated individually and will overlap with each other.

The sessions will be identified as a colored box surrounding the market data of the period that it represents, and a label will be displayed above the box to identify the session that it represents. The label, color and period of each session is completely customizable.

The user can also adjust all sessions at once to account for timezones in the settings.
