True Close – Institutional Trading Sessions (Zeiierman)█ Overview
True Close – Institutional Trading Sessions (Zeiierman) is a professional-grade session mapping tool designed to help traders align with how institutions perceive the market’s true close. Unlike the textbook “daily close” used by retail traders, institutional desks often anchor their risk management, execution benchmarks, and exposure metrics to the first hour of the next session.
This indicator visualizes that logic directly on your chart — drawing session boxes, true close levels, and time-aligned labels across Sydney, Tokyo, London, and New York. It highlights the first hour of each session, projects the institutional closing price, and builds a live dashboard that tells you which sessions are active, which are in the critical opening phase, and what levels matter most right now.
More than just a visual tool, this indicator embeds institutional rhythm directly into your workflow — giving you a window into where big players finalize yesterday’s business, rebalance exposure, and execute delayed orders. It’s not just about painting sessions on your chart — it’s about adopting the mindset of those who truly move the market. Institutions don’t settle risk at the bell; they complete it in the next session. This tool lets you see that transition in real time, giving you an edge that goes beyond candles and indicators.
█ How It Works
⚪ Session Detection Engine
Each session is identified by its own time block (e.g., 09:00–17:30 for London). Once a session opens:
A full-session box is drawn to track its range.
The first hour is highlighted separately.
Once the first hour completes, the true close line is plotted, representing the price institutions often treat as the "real" close of the prior day.
⚪ Institutional True Close Logic
The script captures the close of the first hour, not the end of the day.
This line becomes a static reference across your chart, letting you visualize how price interacts with that institutional anchor:
Rejections from it show where yesterday's flow is respected.
Breaks through it may indicate that today's flows are rewriting the narrative.
⚪ Dynamic Dashboard Table
A live table appears in the corner of your screen, showing:
Each session's active status
Whether we’re inside the first hour
The current “true close” price if available
Each cell comes with advanced tooltips giving institutional context, flow dynamics, and market microstructure insights — from rebalancing spillovers to VWAP/TWAP lag effects.
█ How to Use
⚪ Use the First-Hour Line as Your Institutional Anchor
Treat it like the price level that big funds care about. Watch how the price behaves around level. Fades, re-tests, or continuation moves often occur as the market finishes recapping yesterday’s leftover orders.
⚪ Structure Entries Around the Session Context
Are you inside the first hour? Expect more volatility, more decisive flow. After the first session hour, expect fading liquidity as the market slows down and awaits the next session to open.
█ Settings
UTC Offset – Select your preferred time zone; all sessions adjust accordingly.
Session Toggles – Enable/disable Sydney, Tokyo, London, or NY.
Box Display Options – Show/hide session background, first-hour fill, borders.
True Close Line Controls – Enable line, label, and customize width & color.
Execution Hour Labels – Optional toggle for first-hour label placement.

KillZones + ACD Fisher [TradingFinder] Sessions + Reversal Level🔵 Introduction
🟣 ACD Method
"The Logical Trader" opens with a thorough exploration of the ACD Methodology, which focuses on pinpointing particular price levels associated with the opening range.
This approach enables traders to establish reference points for their trades, using "A" and "C" points as entry markers. Additionally, the book covers the concept of the "Pivot Range" and how integrating it with the ACD method can help maximize position size while minimizing risk.
🟣 Session
The forex market is operational 24 hours a day, five days a week, closing only on Saturdays and Sundays. Typically, traders prefer to concentrate on one specific forex trading session rather than attempting to trade around the clock.
Trading sessions are defined time periods when a particular financial market is active, allowing for the execution of trades.
The most crucial trading sessions within the 24-hour cycle are the Asia, London, and New York sessions, as these are when substantial money flows and liquidity enter the market.
🟣 Kill Zone
Traders in financial markets earn profits by capitalizing on the difference between their buy/sell prices and the prevailing market prices.
Traders vary in their trading timelines.Some traders engage in daily or even hourly trading, necessitating activity during periods with optimal trading volumes and notable price movements.
Kill zones refer to parts of a session characterized by higher trading volumes and increased price volatility compared to the rest of the session.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Session Times
The "Asia Session" comprises two parts: "Sydney" and "Tokyo." This session begins at 23:00 and ends at 06:00 UTC. The "Asia KillZone" starts at 23:00 and ends at 03:55 UTC.
The "London Session" includes "Frankfurt" and "London," starting at 07:00 and ending at 14:25 UTC. The "London KillZone" runs from 07:00 to 09:55 UTC.
The "New York" session starts at 14:30 and ends at 19:25 UTC, with the "New York am KillZone" beginning at 14:30 and ending at 22:55 UTC.
🟣 ACD Methodology
The ACD strategy is versatile, applicable to various markets such as stocks, commodities, and forex, providing clear buy and sell signals to set price targets and stop losses.
This strategy operates on the premise that the opening range of trades holds statistical significance daily, suggesting that initial market movements impact the market's behavior throughout the day.
Known as a breakout strategy, the ACD method thrives in volatile or strongly trending markets like crude oil and stocks.
Some key rules for employing the ACD strategy include :
Utilize points A and C as critical reference points, continually monitoring these during trades as they act as entry and exit markers.
Analyze daily and multi-day pivot ranges to understand market trends. Prices above the pivots indicate an upward trend, while prices below signal a downward trend.
In forex trading, the ACD strategy can be implemented using the ACD indicator, a technical tool that gauges the market's supply and demand balance. By evaluating trading volume and price, this indicator assists traders in identifying trend strength and optimal entry and exit points.
To effectively use the ACD indicator, consider the following :
Identifying robust trends: The ACD indicator can help pinpoint strong, consistent market trends.
Determining entry and exit points: ACD generates buy and sell signals to optimize trade timing.
Bullish Setup :
When the "A up" line is breached, it’s wise to wait briefly to confirm it’s not a "Fake Breakout" and that the price stabilizes above this line.
Upon entering the trade, the most effective stop loss is positioned below the "A down" line. It's advisable to backtest this to ensure the best outcomes. The recommended reward-to-risk ratio for this strategy is 1, which should also be verified through backtesting.
Bearish Setup :
When the "A down" line is breached, it’s prudent to wait briefly to ensure it’s not a "Fake Breakout" and that the price stabilizes below this line.
Upon entering the trade, the most effective stop loss is positioned above the "A up" line. Backtesting is recommended to confirm the best results. The recommended reward-to-risk ratio for this strategy is 1, which should also be validated through backtesting.
Advantages of Combining Kill Zone and ACD Method in Market Analysis :
Precise Trade Timing : Integrating the Kill Zone strategy with the ACD Method enhances precision in trade entries and exits. The ACD Method identifies key points for trading, while the Kill Zone focuses on high-activity periods, together ensuring optimal timing for trades.
Better Trend Identification : The ACD Method’s pivot ranges help spot market trends, and when combined with the Kill Zone’s emphasis on periods of significant price movement, traders can more effectively identify and follow strong market trends.
Maximized Profits and Minimized Risks : The ACD Method's structured approach to setting price targets and stop losses, coupled with the Kill Zone's high-volume trading periods, helps maximize profit potential while reducing risk.
Robust Risk Management : Combining these methods provides a comprehensive risk management strategy, strategically placing stop losses and protecting capital during volatile periods.
Versatility Across Markets : Both methods are applicable to various markets, including stocks, commodities, and forex, offering flexibility and adaptability in different trading environments.
Enhanced Confidence : Using the combined insights of the Kill Zone and ACD Method, traders gain confidence in their decision-making process, reducing emotional trading and improving consistency.
By merging the Kill Zone’s focus on trading volumes and the ACD Method’s structured breakout strategy, traders benefit from a synergistic approach that enhances precision, trend identification, and risk management across multiple markets.

Market Trading Sessions (TG Fork)Visualize trading sessions opening hours of several international exchanges on a grid. Contrary to other indicators, this one automatically aligns the session with the current chart's timezone.
This is helpful for bar replay or manual backtesting, to spot patterns of correlations (this can also be used in conjunction with correlation indicators, see my other indicators).
Original indicator by Gunzo, if you like this indicator, please show the original author some love:
This indicator is also inspired by the following indicators:
ZenAndTheArtOfTrading with
UnknownUnicorn468659 with
This fork implements the following features:
Converted to PineScript v5.
Adapted default color palette to dark mode, as is the default in TradingView now.
Fix drawing issues, now the design shows as it was originally meant to be.
Fixed mistiming issue that made some sessions display with a delay compared to the real session, especially the first session was bar at the start of the session was not displayed.
Inputted the accurate timings for each session, instead of the default 0800-1600 in the original indicator.
Essentially, you can just add this indicator and it should work out of the box. If not, please let me know, and I'll try to fix it!
Exchange sessionsThe Exchange sessions indicator allows you to show world trading sessions on the chart, taking into account working hours in the corresponding time zone .
>> For traders:
The settings set the working hours of the exchange, and the indicator itself automatically binds it to the time zone of the selected exchange location - this allows you not to get confused about the correctness of the entered time ranges for any type of chart - stock, futures, index, forex or crypto. By default, the valid working hours are set and no further configuration is required.
In addition, you can select those zones that you want to highlight (using the marker to the left of the session name), and you can also highlight the beginning of each trading session - the start marker.
>> For encoders:
In the code, you can see how to set the session time and bind its control to the time zone from the IANA time zone database.
Also, in the code you will find a way to align the description of input parameters using Unicode Spaces.
I hope that my script will benefit the community and provide a quality result in my work!
All profit!

Forex Trading SessionsThere are a million Forex Trading Session indicators out there, but I couldn't find one with all of the following requirements:
1. Automatically show the Sessions that actually affect the current pair (for instance, Tokyo session doesn't matter when trading EURGBP)
2. Editable colors or at the very least no distracting colors
3. Editable times for each exchange session
4. Unique indication of the start of a session vs the end of a session. (Sometimes, I don't notice a background going from Navy Blue to Black)
This indicator has everything I could ever want in a Sessions Tool:
Subdued default colors
Editable colors
Editable session ranges
Obvious, but not obnoxious indication of start and stop
Automatically hide irrelevant Sessions
Cheers. EFX

Regular Trading Hour Sessions for America, Asia and EUThis trading view script is a simple one but I find it very helpful in spotting changes in trend of FX.
The basic idea is to create a visual direction from the previous session to the next new session.
The concept while basic provides visual trend direction and changes as session change.
The three sessions are:
1. Asia from 2130-0400
2. Europe from 0300-1130
3. America from 0930-1600
When you use a line chart you will see the default line when no sessions are active.
Features I plan to add
* Tracking delta of each session
* Moving Averages of each session
* Momentum of each session
* Delta difference
My ultimate goal for this script will be to provide a way to visualize the impact of each session and provide data to buy/sell triggers for Trading Strategies.
Please provide feedback and if you use the script or add a feature please update me or send me the feature to add to the script.
ATR+ Advanced Sessions ATR for DaterangeATR+ Advanced Sessions ATR for Daterange
The ATR+ adds the following additional filters to the stock ATR indicator by Tradingview:
- Calculates the overall average ATR for a user defined daterange, optionally filtered by trading session and selected weekdays, presented as a secondary line over the standard ATR line.
- Basic ATR line, with colour highlight to indicate the selected sessions, days and timeframe being calculated by the average ATR+ line.
- Average ATR+ line indicating the average of all ATRs within the defined timeframe, optionally filtered by instances of a selected trading session and selected weekdays.
- Customisable appearance.
- The ATR+ also includes the basic ATR configuration options typically found in the standard ATR by Tradingview, including period length and smoothing type. Defaults are set to the factory standards: 14 length, RMA smoothing type.
What Is the Average True Range (ATR)?
The ATR is a technical analysis tool that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range asset price for that period. Investopedia describes the ATR as follows:
"The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, introduced by market technician J. Welles Wilder Jr. in his book New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems, that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following: current high less the current low; the absolute value of the current high less the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low less the previous close. The ATR is then a moving average, generally using 14 days, of the true ranges."
For more information on the ATR and its calculations and use cases, see here:
Investopedia link here.
Tradingview link here.
Note
The indicator may time out if the number of bars being calculated is too long. If this happens, you will need to reduce the datetime range, or increase the chart timeframe in order to reduce the number of bars being calculated and the indicator will attempt to recalculate.
Futures Exchange Sessions 2.0Description
Successor to Futures Exchange Sessions indicator. Completely rebuilt code from the ground up. Every feature has been redesigned and refactored to be the most beneficial while allowing for complete configuration by the user.
This indicator displays Futures Sessions as live boxes that expand dynamically as price moves over the time interval. These boxes make liquidity levels extremely easy to spot and visualize. It helps the user identify market structure and develop their own bias of price action. Everything about the Session boxes can be configured. Box color, border color, border style, and border width are all individually controllable. Each Future Session can be turned on or off at any time. Also, each box has their own text label (Asian Session, London Session, New York Session) and this text can be moved around the box, change color, and change size.
Previous days highs and lows (major liquidity levels) are always important to the futures trader. This indicator now allows the user to individually display the three previous days highs and low levels as lines with optional label. Each line can be independently toggled on or off and like always, every conceivable customization option is available to the user. And the labels can be moved to the right (via the Input Settings) to allow unobstructed views of candles.
The midnight EST open and 8:30 AM EST open horizontal lines (developed by the Inner Circle Trader) are returning in this indicator. But the biggest improvement is that the lines stop at the current bar or the last bar of the trading day. Additionally, the time lines are displayed on previous days so the user can easily see how the candles reacted to these important times of the day.
The Session boxes and the horizontal time lines now can be set to only display a certain number of day back. If the user wants just to see Session boxes for the previous day only, they can do that. If the user wants to see the last 15 days of boxes or lines it is very easy to increase the days back in the settings. Currently, the max days back is 80 calendar days.
Additional Images
Easily visualize and understand price action across time
Everything is customizable so the user can easily match this indicator to their color preferences
Special Notes
To turn off box session text set opacity to 0%
Boxes and horizontal time lines only display when timeframe is <= 30 minute

It helps traders spot potential liquidity grabs, reversals, and breakout zones by tracking price behavior around these key areas
🌟 Session Highs & Lows – Liquidity Zones 🌟
Session highs and lows often attract price due to stop orders resting above or below them. These levels are frequently targeted during high-volatility moves.
🔹 Asia Session
- Usually ranges in low volatility.
- Highs/lows often get swept during early London.
- Price may raid these levels, then reverse.
🔹 London Session
- First major volatility of the day.
- Highs/lows often tested or swept in New York.
- Commonly forms the day’s true high or low.
🌟 Opening Range Concepts 🌟
The Opening Range is the first 15, 30, or 60 minutes of a session (e.g., New York).
The high (ORH) and low (ORL) define the market’s initial balance and key reaction levels.
🔹 Breakout Trade
- Price breaks ORH/ORL with momentum.
- Signals directional intent.
- Traders enter on the breakout, with stops inside the range.
🔹 Liquidity Raid
- Price briefly breaks ORH/ORL to trigger stops.
- Reverses after the sweep.
- Look for structure shift and entry near FVG or OB.
🌟 Customizable Settings 🌟
The indicator includes 3 configurable ranges , each with:
Start & End Time – Set any custom time window.
Display Type – Choose Box (highlight range) or Lines (mark high/low).
Color Settings – Set custom colors for boxes and lines.

Simple Sessions========== TLDR ==========
The "Simple Sessions" indicator plots vertical lines and labels at the open and close of the US (New York), Asia (Tokyo), and Europe (London), daily session. The existing session indicators I could find all changed the background color of the chart for the entire session or added extra information to the chart that cluttered up my view. This is meant to be a less noisy and easy to interpret indication that the session you trade has started or is ending.
========== Features ==========
- Show or hide vertical lines for session opens and closes
- Show or hide labels for session opens and closes
- Show or hide each session individually
- Show or hide just the session close indications
- Change the color used for each session open and close
- Change the labels text, size, and text color
========== Limitations ==========
The session start and end times are hard coded in for their time zones and can't be changed:
- US (New York) - 9:30 - 16:00
- Asia (Tokyo) - 9:00 - 15:00
- Europe (London) - 8:30 - 16:30
========== Use Cases ==========
- Easily see when each session started and ended without the chart being too noisy
- Make it easier to identify price action patterns and trade setups that may occur on the open of each session

FVG Sessions [LuxAlgo]The FVG Sessions indicator highlights the first fair value gap of the trading session as well as the session range. Detected fair value gaps extend to the end of the trading session.
Alerts are included on the formation of a session fair value gap, price being within a session fair value gap, mitigations, and price crossing session fair value gaps average.
🔶 USAGE
Trader ICT states that the first fair value gap of the trading session can attract the most significant reaction. Having only one FVG per session allows users to further focus on that precise imbalance as well as external elements.
The mitigation of a fair value gap is clearly indicated on the chart with a more transparent color allowing users to see inverse FVGs.
Extending the fair value gaps allows the imbalance area to provide potential support and resistance.
Do note that this script should be used on intraday charts.
🔶 ALERTS
The script includes the following alerts:
🔹 Bullish/Bearish FVG
Alerts on the formation of the first bullish or bearish FVG of the session.
🔹 Bullish/Bearish FVG Mitigation
Alerts when the first bullish or bearish FVG of the session is mitigated.
🔹 Price Within FVG
Alerts when price is within the first bullish or bearish FVG area of the session.
