Golden Session ORB - Execution & Visualization Tool🎯 Optimize Your Execution with Golden Session ORB
The Golden Session ORB is a technical execution tool designed for traders who specialize in Opening Range Breakouts. Its primary goal is to provide a clean, professional visualization of liquidity levels across the three most critical trading sessions: Asia (18:00), NYC Pre-Market (08:00), and the Wall Street Open (09:30).
This script is not an automated signal system. It is a decision-support tool that manages range levels and visual structure, allowing the trader to focus exclusively on price action analysis and high-quality execution.
⏱️ Recommended Timeframes For optimal performance and precise box formation, this indicator should be used on:
1 Minute (1m): Ideal for observing the fine details of range formation and breakout precision.
15 Minutes (15m): Ideal for a clearer structural perspective of the session’s development.
💎 Key Features:
Automatic Multi-Session Structure: Automatically identifies and plots support and resistance levels from the opening minutes of each session.
Dynamic Extended Boxes: Ranges project forward automatically to help you identify key supply and demand zones throughout the day.
"Intention Candle" Visual Aid (Optional): The script highlights candles that show a confluence of volume and trend alignment (EMAs).
Note: These highlighted candles are NOT buy/sell alerts. They are a visual guide to help you identify moments of potential interest based on your own criteria.
📊 Backtesting & Risk Management This tool is perfect for manual backtesting, allowing you to study how price historically reacts to each session's levels.
Trading Recommendation: While opening range breakouts can lead to massive expansions, markets remain volatile. It is highly recommended to secure partial profits during the move and actively manage your risk to protect your capital from sudden price reversals.
Range Indicator Golden Pocket, Liquidity, FairValueGapOverview
This indicator is a comprehensive institutional market structure toolkit. It is designed to identify high-probability reversal zones by merging three powerful technical analysis concepts: Fibonacci Golden Pockets (61.8% - 65%), Liquidity Pool Analysis (Swing Failure Patterns), and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). By automating the detection of price inefficiencies and "stop runs," it helps traders navigate complex price action with objective, rule-based confirmation.
What the Script Does
The script continuously monitors a user-defined lookback period to define a trading range. Within this range, it dynamically plots:
Golden Pockets: High-confluence retracement zones (calculated as 0.35 - 0.382 internal range levels).
Liquidity Zones: Highlighted regions at the absolute high and low (Top/Bottom 5%) where institutional orders and retail stops are typically concentrated.
Swing Failure Patterns (SFP): Real-time detection of liquidity grabs where price breaches a range extreme but fails to close outside, signaling a potential trap.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Visualizes 3-candle price imbalances, showing areas of aggressive buying or selling that often act as future magnets or support/resistance.
2-Candle Confirmation: A momentum-based filter requiring a candle-close confirmation before a reversal signal is generated.
For Whom is it?
Smart Money Concepts (SMC) & ICT Students: Traders looking for automated liquidity sweeps and market inefficiencies.
Fibonacci & Mean Reversion Traders: Those seeking a clean, professional visualization of the Golden Pocket across multiple timeframes.
Systematic Day Traders: Who require strict price-action confirmation (SFP and 2-candle rules) to remove emotional bias from their entries.
Functions and Input Options
1. Market Structure & Visuals
Lookback Period (Default: 100): Defines the window for calculating the range extremes.
Box Offset Right (Default: 50): Extends all zones into the future for better anticipatory trading.
Show Price Lines & Labels: Displays the exact price for every zone boundary on the right axis for precise execution.
2. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Settings
Show Fair Value Gaps: A toggle to enable/disable the plotting of price imbalances.
FVG Extension (Default: 10): Determines how many bars into the future the FVG box remains visible.
Custom Colors: Separate color inputs for Bullish (Gap Up) and Bearish (Gap Down) inefficiencies.
3. Professional Alert System
The script includes five specific alert conditions:
GP Touch: Early warning when price enters a Golden Pocket.
2-Candle Pattern: Confirmed momentum shift within a Golden Pocket.
SFP Long/Short: Alerts when a Liquidity Grab (Swing Failure) is confirmed at the range high or low.
Transparency and Compliance (Moderator Info)
Non-Repainting Logic: All signals (SFP, 2-Candle, and FVG) are calculated and triggered based on confirmed candle closes. Drawings use barstate.islast purely for visual efficiency without altering historical data integrity.
Educational Context: The script visualizes well-known market principles (Fibonacci, SFPs, and FVGs) to aid traders in their analysis; it does not provide automated financial advice or "black-box" buy/sell signals.
Resource Management: Optimized for Pine Script v5, using efficient array and box handling to ensure smooth performance even on lower timeframes.
Range Breakout Statistics [Honestcowboy]⯁ Overview
The Range Breakout Statistics uses a very simple system to detect ranges/consolidating markets. The principle is simple, it looks for areas where the slope of a moving average is flat compared to past values. If the moving average is flat for X amount of bars that's a range and it will draw a box.
The statistics part of the script is a bit more complicated. The aim of this script is to expand analysis of trading signals in a different way than a regular backtest. It also highlights the polyline tool, one of my favorite drawing tools on the tradingview platform.
⯁ Statistics Methods
The script has 2 different modes of analyzing a trading signals strength/robustness. It will do that for 2 signals native to the script.
Upper breakout: first price breakout at top of box, before max bars (100 bars by default)
Lower breakout: first price breakout at bottom of box, before max bars
The analysis methods themselves are straightforward and it should be possible for tradingview community to expand this type of analysis to other trading signals. This script is a demo for this analysis, yet some might still find the native signals helpful in their trading, that's why the script includes alerts for the 2 native signals. I've also added a setting to disable any data gathering, which makes script run faster if you want to automate it.
For both of the analysis methods it uses the same data, just with different calculations and drawing methods. The data set is all past price action reactions to the signals saved in a matrix. Below a chart for explaining this visually.
⯁ Method 1: Averages Projection
The idea behind this is that just showing all price action that happened after signal does not give actionable insights. It's more a spaghetti jumble mess of price action lines. So instead the script averages the data out using 3 different approaches, all selectable in the settings menu.
Geometric Average: useful as it accurately reflects compound returns over time, smoothing out the impact of large gains or losses. Accounts for volatility drift.
Arithmetic Average: a standard average calculation, can be misleading in trading due to volatility drift. It is the most basic form of averaging so I included it.
Median: useful as any big volatility huge moves after a signal does not really impact the mean as it's just the middle value of all values.
These averages are the 2 lines you will find in the middle of the projection. Having a clear difference between a lower break average and upper break average price reaction can signal significance of the trading signal instead of pure chaos.
Outside of this I also included calculations for the maximum and minimum values in the dataset. This is useful for seeing price reactions range to the signal, showing extreme losses or wins are possible. For this range I also included 2 matrices of highs and lows data. This makes it possible to draw a band between the range based on closing price and the one using high/low data.
Below is a visualisation of how the averages data is shown on chart.
⯁ Method 2: Equity Simulation
This method will feel closer to home for traders as it more closely resembles a backtest. It does not include any commissions however and also is just a visualisation of price reaction to a signal. This method will simulate what would happen if you would buy at the breakout point and hold the trade for X amount of bars. With 0 being sell at same bar close. To test robustness I've given the option to visualise Equity simulation not just for 1 simulation but a bunch of simulations.
On default settings it will draw the simulations for 0 bars holding all the way to 10 bars holding. The idea behind it is to check how stable the effect is, to have further confirmation of the significance of the signal. If price simulation line moves up on average for 0 bars all the way to 10 bars holding time that means the signal is steady.
Below is a visualisation of the Equity Simulation.
⯁ Signal filtering
For the boxes themselves where breakouts come from I've included a simple filter based on the size of the box in ATR or %. This will filter out all the boxes that are larger top to bottom than the ATR or % value you setup.
⯁ Coloring of Script
The script includes 5 color themes. There are no color settings or other visual settings in the script, the script themes are simple and always have colors that work well together. Equity simulation uses a gradient based on lightness to color the different lines so it's easier to differentiate them while still upper breaks having a different color than lower breaks.
This script is not created to be used in conjunction with other scripts, it will force you into a background color that matches the theme. It's purpose is a research tool for systematic trading, to analyse signals in more depth.
Metaverse color theme:
⯁ Conclusion
I hope this script will help traders get a deeper understanding of how different assets react to their assets. It should be possible to convert this script into other signals if you know how to code on the platform. It is my intention to make more publications that include this type of analysis. It is especially useful when dealing with signals that do not happen often enough, so a regular backtest is not enough to test their significance.

Rumiancev Reaction ZonesRumiancev Reaction Zones
Rumiancev Reaction Zones (RRZ) is a clean, non-signal overlay that highlights potential reaction areas — places where price often slows down, bounces, or becomes stretched relative to the current market range.
RRZ is NOT a trading bot. It does not provide guaranteed entries/exits. Use it as a context tool alongside your own confirmation (structure, trend bias, momentum/volume, etc.).
────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IS DRAWN ON THE CHART
────────────────────────────────────────
🔵 Blue Zone • Buy Area (Filled Band)
A lower reaction band (“discount / downside stretch”).
• Upper edge: Blue Zone • Buy Area (blue line)
• Lower edge: Blue Zone • Lower Band (hidden band edge)
When price enters this band, reactions become more likely (bounces, stabilization, reclaim moves).
🟠 Orange Zone • Sell Area (Filled Band)
An upper reaction band (“stretch / upside extension”).
• Lower edge: Orange Zone • Sell Area (orange line)
• Upper edge: Orange Zone • Upper Band (hidden band edge)
When price reaches this band, pauses, pullbacks, or distribution can appear.
⚪ Guide Line (Gray)
A neutral reference line inside the structure. Helps to judge whether price is closer to “discount” (Blue side) or “stretch” (Orange side).
🟢 Deep Line (Green) — Aggressive Context (NOT a zone)
A deeper downside reference line (green), not a filled band.
If price reaches it, conditions are typically more volatile and risk is higher. Treat it as a high-risk context line, not an automatic entry.
🔴 Orange Extreme (Red) — High Extension (NOT a zone)
A high-extension reference line above the Orange Zone. Often used as a strong risk-reduction context after extended upside moves.
────────────────────────────────────────
HOW TO USE RRZ (PRACTICAL FRAMEWORK)
────────────────────────────────────────
1) Blue Zone approach (potential entries)
• When price enters the Blue Zone , wait for confirmation first (rejection wick, reclaim back above the zone edge, local structure holding).
• Consider scaling in gradually rather than entering full size at once.
• If price continues deeper toward the green Deep Line , treat it as higher risk and act only if your plan and risk limits allow it.
2) Orange Zone approach (potential exits)
• When price reaches the Orange Zone , many traders consider partial risk reduction (scale out, protect profit, tighten stops).
• Near the red Orange Extreme line, many traders consider stronger risk reduction (up to closing most/all), especially after impulsive runs.
IMPORTANT: RRZ marks areas , not entries. Always define invalidation (stop/idea failure point) and position size before acting.
────────────────────────────────────────
CONFIRMATION IDEAS (SIMPLE)
────────────────────────────────────────
• Rejection wicks / reclaim back above a zone edge
• Break & retest of local structure
• Momentum/volume shift you personally trust
• Alignment with higher-timeframe direction
────────────────────────────────────────
SETTINGS
────────────────────────────────────────
• Depth → sensitivity (lower = more reactive, higher = steadier)
• Smoothness → adaptation speed (lower = faster, higher = smoother)
• Zone Width → thickness of the Blue/Orange fills (visual width)
────────────────────────────────────────
EXAMPLES (CHART IMAGES)
────────────────────────────────────────
Example 1 — Orange Zone reaction (Daily)
Price pushes into the Orange Zone (stretch area), then cools off and rotates lower. RRZ helps visualize this as a place to watch for rejection or profit-taking context.
Example 2 — Repeated cycles (Daily)
Multiple cycles where touches into the Orange Zone often coincide with pauses/pullbacks, while dips into the Blue Zone tend to act as reaction areas during corrections.
Example 3 — Blue Zone reaction after a sell-off (4H)
A sharp move pushes price into the Blue Zone , followed by stabilization and reaction. The Orange Zone remains overhead as the next upside stretch region to monitor.
────────────────────────────────────────
NOTES
────────────────────────────────────────
• Zones are dynamic and update as new market data forms.
• No future-looking data (“lookahead”) is used.

Market Regime | NY Session Killzones Indicator [ApexLegion]Market Regime | NY Session Killzones Indicator
Introduction and Theoretical Background
The Market Regime | NY Session Killzones indicator is designed exclusively for New York market hours (07:00-16:00 ET). Unlike universal indicators that attempt to function across disparate global sessions, this tool employs session-specific calibration to target the distinct liquidity characteristics of the NY trading day: Pre-Market structural formation (08:00-09:30), the Morning breakout window (09:30-12:00), and the Afternoon Killzone (13:30-16:00)—periods when institutional order flow exhibits the highest concentration and most definable technical structure. By restricting its operational scope to these statistically significant time windows, the indicator focuses on signal relevance while filtering the noise inherent in lower-liquidity overnight or extended-hours trading environments.
I. TECHNICAL RATIONALE: THE PRINCIPLE OF CONTEXTUAL FUSION
1. The Limitation of Acontextual Indicators
Traditional technical indicators often fail because they treat every bar and every market session equally, applying static thresholds (e.g., RSI > 70) without regard for the underlying market structure or liquidity environment. However, institutional volume and market volatility are highly dependent on the time of day (session) and the prevailing long-term risk environment.
This indicator was developed to address this "contextual deficit" by fusing three distinct yet interdependent analytical layers:
• Time and Structure (Macro): Identifying high-probability trading windows (Killzones) and critical structural levels (Pre-Market Range, PDH/PDL).
• Volatility and Scoring (Engine): Normalizing intraday momentum against annual volatility data to create an objective, statistically grounded AI Score.
• Risk Management (Execution): Implementing dynamic, volatility-adjusted Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) parameters based on the Average True Range (ATR).
2. The Mandate for 252-Day Normalization (Z-Score)
What makes this tool unique is its 252-day Z-Score normalization engine that transforms raw momentum readings into statistically grounded probability scores, allowing the same indicator to deliver consistent, context-aware signals across any timeframe—from 1-minute scalping to 1-hour swing trades—without manual recalibration.
THE PROBLEM OF SCALE INVARIANCE
A high Relative Strength Index (RSI) reading on a 1-minute chart has a completely different market implication than a high RSI reading on a Daily chart. Simple percentage-based thresholds (like 70 or 30) do not provide true contextual significance. A sudden spike in momentum may look extreme on a 5-minute chart, but if it is statistically insignificant compared to the overall volatility of the last year, it may be a poor signal.
THE SOLUTION: CROSS-TIMEFRAME Z-SCORE NORMALIZATION
This indicator utilizes the Pine Script function request.security to reference the Daily timeframe for calculating the mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ) of a momentum oscillator (RSI) over the past 252 trading days (one year).
The indicator then calculates the Z-Score (Z) for the current bar's raw momentum (x): Z = (x - μ) / σ
Core Implementation: float raw_rsi = ta.rsi(close, 14) // x
= request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "D",
, // σ (252 days)
lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on)
float cur_rsi_norm = d_rsi_std != 0 ? (raw_rsi - d_rsi_mean) / d_rsi_std : 0.0 // Z
This score provides an objective measurement of current intraday momentum significance by evaluating its statistical extremity against the yearly baseline of daily momentum. This standardized approach provides the scoring engine with consistent, global contextual information, independent of the chart's current viewing timeframe.
II. CORE COMPONENTS AND TECHNICAL ANALYSIS BREAKDOWN
1. TIME AND SESSION ANALYSIS (KILLZONES AND BIAS)
The indicator visually segments the trading day based on New York (NY) trading sessions, aligning the analysis with periods of high institutional liquidity events.
Pre-Market (PRE)
• Function: Defines the range before the core market opens. This range establishes structural support and resistance levels (PMH/PML).
• Technical Implementation: Uses a dedicated Session input (ny_pre_sess). The High and Low values (pm_h_val/pm_l_val) within this session are stored and plotted for structural reference.
• Smart Extension Logic: PMH/PML lines are automatically extended until the next Pre-Market session begins, providing continuous support/resistance references overnight.
NY Killzones (AM/PM)
• Function: Highlights high-probability volatility windows where institutional liquidity is expected to be highest (e.g., NY open, lunch, NY close).
• Technical Implementation: Separate session inputs (kz_ny_am, kz_ny_pm) are utilized to draw translucent background fills, providing a clear visual cue for timing.
Market Regime Bias
• Function: Determines the initial directional premise for the trading day. The bias is confirmed when the price breaks either the Pre-Market High (PMH) or the Pre-Market Low (PML).
• Technical Implementation: Involves the comparison of the close price against the predefined structural levels (check_h for PMH, check_l for PML). The variable active_bias is set to Bullish or Bearish upon confirmed breakout.
Trend Bar Coloring
• Function: Applies a visual cue to the bars based on the established regime (Bullish=Cyan, Bearish=Red). This visual filter helps mitigate noise from counter-trend candles.
• Technical Implementation: The Pine Script barcolor() function is tied directly to the value of the determined active_bias.
2. VOLATILITY NORMALIZED SCORING ENGINE
The internal scoring mechanism accumulates points from multiple market factors to determine the strength and validity of a signal. The purpose is to apply a robust filtering mechanism before generating an entry.
The score accumulation logic is based on the following factors:
• Market Bias Alignment (+3 Points): Points are awarded for conformance with the determined active_bias (Bullish/Bearish).
• VWAP Alignment (+2 Points): Assesses the position of the current price relative to the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP). Alignment suggests conformity with the average institutional transaction price.
• Volume Anomaly (+2 Points): Detects a price move accompanied by an abnormally high relative volume (odd_vol_spike). This suggests potential institutional participation or significant order flow.
• VIX Integration (+2 Points): A score derived from the CBOE VIX index, assessing overall market stability and stress. Stable VIX levels add points, while high VIX levels (stress regimes) remove points or prevent signal generation entirely.
• ML Probability Score (+3 Points): This is the core predictive engine. It utilizes a Log-Manhattan Distance Kernel to compare the current market state against historical volatility patterns. The script implements a Log-linear distance formula (log(1 + |Δ|) ). This approach mathematically dampens the impact of extreme volatility spikes (outliers), ensuring that the similarity score reflects true structural alignment rather than transient market noise.
Core Technical Logic (Z-Score Normalization)
float cur_rsi_norm = d_rsi_std != 0 ? (raw_rsi - d_rsi_mean) / d_rsi_std : 0.0
• Technical Purpose: This line calculates the Z-Score (cur_rsi_norm) of the current momentum oscillator reading (raw_rsi) by normalizing it against the mean (d_rsi_mean) and standard deviation (d_rsi_std) derived from 252 days of Daily momentum data. If the standard deviation is zero (market is perfectly flat), it safely returns 0.0 to prevent division by zero runtime errors. This allows the AI's probability score to be based on the current signal's significance within the context of the entire trading year.
3. EXECUTION AND RISK MANAGEMENT (ATR MODEL)
The indicator utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) volatility model. This helps risk management scale dynamically with market volatility by allowing users to define TP/SL distances independently based on the current ATR.
Stop Loss Multiplier (sl_mult)
• Function: Sets the Stop Loss (SL) distance as a configurable multiple of the current ATR (e.g., 1.5 × ATR).
• Technical Logic: The price level is calculated as: last_sl_price := close - (atr_val * sl_mult). The mathematical sign is reversed for short trades.
Take Profit Multiplier (tp_mult)
• Function: Sets the Take Profit (TP) distance as a configurable multiple of the current ATR (e.g., 3.0 × ATR).
• Technical Logic: The price level is calculated as: last_tp_price := close + (atr_val * tp_mult). The mathematical sign is reversed for short trades.
Structural SL Option
• Function: Provides an override to the ATR-based SL calculation. When enabled, it forces the Stop Loss to the Pre-Market High/Low (PMH/PML) level, aligning the stop with a key institutional structural boundary.
• Technical Logic: The indicator checks the use_struct_sl input. If true, the calculated last_sl_price is overridden with either pm_h_val or pm_l_val, dependent on the specific trade direction.
Trend Continuation Logic
• Function: Enables signal generation in established, strong trends (typically in the Afternoon session) based on follow-through momentum (a new high/low of the previous bar) combined with a high Signal Score, rather than exclusively relying on the initial PMH/PML breakout.
• Technical Logic: For a long signal, the is_cont_long logic specifically requires checks like active_bias == s_bull AND close > high , confirming follow-through momentum within the established regime.
Smart Snapping & Cleanup (16:00 Market Close)
• Function: To maintain chart cleanliness, all trade boxes (TP/SL), AI Prediction zones, Killzone overlays (NY AM/PM), and Liquidity lines (PDH/PDL) are automatically "snapped" and cut off precisely at 16:00 NY Time (Market Close).
• Technical Logic: When is_market_close condition is met (hour == 16 and minute == 0), the script executes cleanup logic that:
◦ Closes active trades and evaluates final P&L
◦ Snaps all TP/SL box widths to current bar
◦ Truncates AI Prediction ghost boxes at market close
◦ Cuts off NY AM/PM Killzone background fills
◦ Terminates PDH/PDL line extensions
◦ Prevents visual clutter from extending into post-market sessions
4. LIQUIDITY AND STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
The indicator plots key structural levels that serve as high-probability magnet zones or areas of potential liquidity absorption.
• Pre-Market High/Low (PMH/PML): These are the high and low established during the configured pre-market session (ny_pre_sess). They define the primary structural breakout level for the day, often serving as the initial market inflection point or the key entry level for the morning session.
• PDH (Previous Day High): The high of the calendar day immediately preceding the current bar. This represents a key Liquidity Pool; large orders are often placed above this level, making it a frequent target for stop hunts or liquidity absorption by market makers.
• PDL (Previous Day Low): The low of the calendar day immediately preceding the current bar. This also represents a key Liquidity Pool and a high-probability reversal or accumulation point, particularly during the Killzones.
FIFO Array Management
The indicator uses FIFO (First-In-First-Out) array structures to manage liquidity lines and labels, automatically deleting the oldest objects when the count exceeds 500 to comply with drawing object limits.
5. AI PREDICTION BOX (PREDICTIVE MODEL)
Function: Analyzes AI scores and volatility to project predicted killzone ranges and duration with asymmetric directional bias.
A. DIRECTIONAL BIAS (ASYMMETRIC EXPANSION)
The prediction model calculates directional probability using the ML kernel's 252-day Normalized RSI (Z-Score) and Relative Volume (RVOL). The prediction box dynamically adjusts its range based on this probability to provide immediate visual feedback on high-probability direction.
Bullish Scenario (ml_prob > 1.0):
• Upper Range: Expands significantly (1.5x multiplier) to show the aggressive upside target
• Lower Range: Tightens (0.5x multiplier) to show the invalidation level
• Visual Intent: The box is visibly skewed upward, immediately communicating bullish bias without requiring numerical analysis.
Bearish Scenario (ml_prob < -1.0):
• Upper Range: Tightens (0.5x multiplier) to show the invalidation level
• Lower Range: Expands significantly (1.5x multiplier) to show the aggressive downside target
• Visual Intent: The box is visibly skewed downward, immediately communicating bearish bias.
Neutral Scenario (-1.0 < ml_prob < 1.0):
Both ranges use balanced multipliers, creating a symmetrical box that indicates uncertainty.
B. DYNAMIC VOLATILITY BOOSTER (SESSION-BASED ADAPTATION)
The prediction box adjusts its volatility multiplier based on the current session and market conditions to account for intraday volatility patterns.
AM Session (Morning: 07:00-12:00):
• Base Multiplier: 1.0x (Neutral Base)
• Logic: Morning sessions often contain false breakouts and noise. The base multiplier starts neutral to avoid over-projecting during consolidation.
• Trend Booster: Multiplier jumps to 1.5x when:
Price > London Session Open AND AI is Bullish (ml_prob > 0), OR
Price < London Session Open AND AI is Bearish (ml_prob < 0)
• Logic: When the London trend (typically 03:00-08:00 NY time) aligns with the AI model's directional conviction, the indicator aggressively targets higher volatility expansion. This filters for "institutional follow-through" rather than random morning chop.
PM Session (Afternoon: 13:00-16:00):
• Fixed Multiplier: 1.8x
• Logic: The PM session, particularly the 13:30-16:00 ICT Silver Bullet window, often contains the "True Move" of the day. A higher baseline multiplier is applied to emphasize this session's significance over morning noise.
Safety Floor:
A minimum range of 0.2% of the current price is enforced regardless of volatility conditions.
• Purpose: Maintains the prediction box visibility during extreme low-volatility consolidation periods where ATR might collapse to near-zero values.
Volatility Clamp Protection:
Maximum volatility is capped at three times the current ATR value. During flash crashes, circuit breaker halts, or large overnight gaps, raw volatility calculations can spike to extreme levels. This clamp prevents prediction boxes from expanding to unrealistic widths.
Technical Implementation:
f_get_ai_multipliers(float _prob) =>
float _abs_prob = math.abs(_prob)
float _range_mult = 1.0
float _dur_mult = 1.0
if _abs_prob > 30
_range_mult := 1.8
else if _abs_prob > 10
_range_mult := 1.2
else
_range_mult := 0.7
C. PRACTICAL INTERPRETATION
• Wide Upper Range + Tight Lower Range: Strong bullish conviction. The model expects significant upside with limited downside risk.
• Tight Upper Range + Wide Lower Range: Strong bearish conviction. The model expects significant downside with limited upside.
• Symmetrical Range: Neutral/uncertain market. Wait for directional confirmation before entry.
• Large Box (Extended Duration): High-confidence prediction expecting sustained movement.
• Small Box (Short Duration): Low-confidence or choppy conditions. Expect quick resolution.
III. PRACTICAL USAGE GUIDE: METHODOLOGY AND EXECUTION
A. ESTABLISHING TRADING CONTEXT (THE THREE CHECKS)
The primary goal of the dashboard is to filter out low-probability trade setups before they occur.
• Timeframe Selection: Although the core AI is normalized to the Daily context, the indicator performs optimally on intraday timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m) where session-based volatility is most pronounced.
• PHASE Check (Timing): Always confirm the current phase. The highest probability signals typically occur within the visually highlighted NY AM/PM Killzones because this is when institutional liquidity and volume are at their peak. Signals outside these zones should be treated with skepticism.
• MARKET REGIME Check (Bias): Ensure the signal (BUY/SELL arrow) aligns with the established MARKET REGIME bias (BULLISH/BEARISH). Counter-bias signals are technically allowed if the score is high, but they represent a higher risk trade.
• VIX REGIME Check (Risk): Review the VIX REGIME for overall market stress. Periods marked DANGER (high VIX) indicate elevated volatility and market uncertainty. During DANGER regimes, reducing position size or choosing a wider SL Multiplier is advisable.
B. DASHBOARD INTERPRETATION (THE REAL-TIME STATUS DISPLAY)
The indicator features a non-intrusive dashboard that provides real-time, context-aware information based on the core analytical engines.
PHASE: (PRE-MARKET, NY-AM, LUNCH, NY-PM)
• Meaning: Indicates the current institutional session time. This is derived from the customizable session inputs.
• Interpretation: Signals generated during NY-AM or NY-PM (Killzones) are generally considered higher-probability due to increased institutional participation and liquidity.
MARKET REGIME: (BULLISH, BEARISH, NEUTRAL)
• Meaning: The established directional bias for the trading day, confirmed by the price breaking above the Pre-Market High (PMH) or below the Pre-Market Low (PML).
• Interpretation: Trading with the established regime (e.g., taking a BUY signal when the regime is BULLISH) is the primary method. NEUTRAL indicates that the PMH/PML boundary has not yet been broken, suggesting market ambiguity.
VIX REGIME: (STABLE, DANGER)
• Meaning: A measure of overall market stress and stability, based on the CBOE VIX index integration. The thresholds (20.0 and 35.0 default) are customizable by the user.
• Interpretation: STABLE indicates stable volatility, favoring momentum trades. DANGER (VIX > 35.0) indicates extreme stress; signals generated in this environment require caution and often necessitate smaller position sizing.
SIGNAL SCORE: (0 to 10+ Points)
• Meaning: The accumulated score derived from the VOLATILITY NORMALIZED AI SCORING ENGINE, factoring in bias, VWAP alignment, volume, and the Z-Score probability.
• Interpretation: The indicator generates a signal when this score meets or exceeds the Minimum Entry Score (default 3). A higher score (e.g., 7+) indicates greater statistical confluence and a stronger potential entry.
AI PROBABILITY: (Bull/Bear %)
• Meaning: Directional probability derived from the ML kernel, expressed as a percentage with Bull/Bear label.
• Interpretation: Higher absolute values (>20%) indicate stronger directional conviction from the ML model.
LIVE METRICS SECTION:
• STATUS: Shows current trade state (LONG, SHORT, or INACTIVE)
• ENTRY: Displays the entry price for active trades
• TARGET: Shows the calculated Take Profit level
• ROI | KILL ZONE:
◦ For Active Trades: Displays real-time P&L percentage during NY session hours.
◦ At Market Close (16:00 NY): Since this is a NY session-specific indicator, any active position is automatically evaluated and closed at 16:00. The final result (VALIDATED or INVALIDATED) is determined based on whether the trade reached profit or loss at market close.
◦ Result Persistence: The killzone result (VALIDATED/INVALIDATED) remains displayed on the dashboard until the next NY AM KILLZONE session begins, providing a clear performance reference for the previous trading day.
Note: If a trade is still trending at 16:00, it will be force-closed and evaluated at that moment, as the indicator operates strictly within NY trading hours.
C. SIGNAL GENERATION AND ENTRY LOGIC
The indicator generates signals based on two distinct technical setups, both of which require the accumulated SIGNAL SCORE to be above the configured Minimum Entry Score.
Breakout Entry
• Trigger Condition: Price closes beyond the Pre-Market High (PMH) or Low (PML).
• Rationale: This setup targets the initial directional movement for the day. A breakout confirms the institutional bias by decisively breaking the first major structural boundary, making the signal high-probability.
Continuation Entry
• Trigger Condition: The market is already in an established regime (e.g., BULLISH), and the price closes above the high (or below the low) of the previous bar, while the SIGNAL SCORE remains high. Requires the Allow Trend Continuation parameter to be active.
• Rationale: This setup targets follow-through trades, typically in the afternoon session, capturing momentum after the morning's direction has been confirmed. This filters for sustainability in the established trend.
Execution: Execute the trade immediately upon the close of the bar that prints the BUY or SELL signal arrow.
D. MANAGING RISK AND EXITS
1. RISK PARAMETER SELECTION
The indicator immediately draws the dynamic TP/SL zones upon entry.
• Volatility-Based (Recommended Default): By setting the SL Multiplier (e.g., 1.5) and the TP Multiplier (e.g., 3.0), the indicator enforces a constant, dynamically sized risk-to-reward ratio (e.g., 1:2 in this example). This helps that risk management scales proportionally with the current market volatility (ATR).
• Structural Override: Selecting the Use Structural SL parameter fixes the stop-loss not to the ATR calculation, but to the more significant structural level of the PMH or PML. This is utilized by traders who favor institutional entry rules where the stop is placed behind the liquidity boundary.
2. EXIT METHODS
• Hard Exit: Price hits the visual TP or SL box boundary.
• Soft Exit (Momentum Decay Filter): If the trade is active and the SIGNAL SCORE drops below the Exit Score Threshold (default 3), it indicates that the momentum supporting the trade has significantly collapsed. This serves as a momentum decay filter, prompting the user to consider a manual early exit even if the SL/TP levels have not been hit, thereby preserving capital during low-momentum consolidation.
• Market Close Auto-Exit: At 16:00 NY time, any active trade is automatically closed and classified as VALIDATED (profit) or INVALIDATED (loss) based on current price vs. entry price.

🔔 ALERT CONFIGURATION GUIDE
The indicator is equipped with specific alert conditions.
How to Set Up an Alert:
Click the "Alert" (Clock icon) in the top TradingView toolbar.
Select "Market Regime NY Session " from the Condition dropdown menu.
Choose one of the specific trigger conditions below depending on your strategy:
🚀 Available Alert Conditions
1. BUY (Long Entry)
Trigger: Fires immediately when a confirmed Bullish Setup is detected.
Conditions: Market Bias is Bullish (or valid Continuation) + Signal Score ≥ Minimum Entry Score.
Usage: Use this alert to open new Long positions or close existing Short positions.
2. SELL (Short Entry)
Trigger: Fires immediately when a confirmed Bearish Setup is detected.
Conditions: Market Bias is Bearish (or valid Continuation) + Signal Score ≥ Minimum Entry Score.
Usage: Use this alert to open new Short positions or close existing Long positions.
V. IMPORTANT TECHNICAL LIMITATIONS
⚠️ Intraday Only (Timeframe Compatibility)
This indicator is strictly designed for Intraday Timeframes (1m to 4h).
Daily/Weekly Charts: The session logic (e.g., "09:30-16:00") cannot function on Daily bars because a single bar encompasses the entire session. Session boxes, TP/SL zones, and AI prediction boxes will NOT draw on the Daily timeframe. Only the PDH/PDL liquidity lines remain visible on Daily charts. This is expected behavior, not a limitation.
Maximum Supported Timeframe: All visual components (session boxes, killzone overlays, TP/SL zones, AI prediction boxes) are displayed up to the 4-hour timeframe. Above this timeframe, only PDH/PDL lines and the dashboard remain functional.
⚠️ Drawing Object Limit (Max 500)
A single script can display a maximum of 500 drawing objects (boxes/lines) simultaneously.
On lower timeframes (e.g., 1-minute), where many signals and session boxes are generated, older history (typically beyond 10-14 days) will automatically disappear to make room for new real-time data.
For deeper historical backtesting visualization, switch to higher timeframes (e.g., 15m, 1h).
The indicator implements FIFO array management to comply with this limit while maintaining the most recent and relevant visual data.
VI. PRACTICAL TRADING TIPS AND BEST PRACTICES
• Killzone Confirmation: The highest statistical validity is observed when a high-score signal occurs directly within a visible NY AM/PM Killzone. Use the Killzones as a strict time filter.
• Liquidity Awareness (PDH/PDL): Treat the Previous Day High (PDH) and Low (PDL) lines as magnets. If your dynamic Take Profit (TP) is placed just above PDH, consider adjusting your target slightly below PDH or utilizing the Soft Exit, as liquidity absorption at these levels often results in sudden, sharp reversals that stop out a trade just before the target is reached.
• VIX as a Position Sizer: During DANGER VIX regimes, the resulting high volatility means the ATR value will be large. It is prudent to either reduce the SL Multiplier or, more commonly, reduce the overall position size to maintain a constant currency risk exposure per trade.
• Continuation Filter Timing: Trend Continuation signals are most effective during the Afternoon (PM) session when the morning's directional breakout has had time to establish a strong, clear, and sustainable trend. Avoid using them in the initial AM session when the direction is still being contested.
• 16:00 Market Close Rule: All trades, boxes, and lines are automatically cleaned up at 16:00 NY time. This prevents overnight chart clutter and maintains visual clarity.

Sessions + Prev + PDH/PDL + Killzones SuiteDescription
This indicator is designed to provide time-based and price-based market context by combining session ranges with commonly referenced prior levels into a single, unified framework.
The purpose of the script is contextual analysis, not signal generation.
What the script does
The script tracks and plots the following elements directly on the price chart:
• High and Low ranges for multiple trading sessions (Asia, London, New York morning, and New York afternoon)
• High and Low levels from the previous occurrence of each session
• Prior Day High (PDH) and Prior Day Low (PDL)
• Optional session “killzone” boxes that visually mark active session time windows
All calculations are performed using time-based session boundaries and price extrema (high/low) within those windows.
Why these components are combined
Sessions, previous session levels, and prior day levels are frequently analyzed together by discretionary traders because they represent:
• Where liquidity formed earlier in the day or previous day
• Where price previously paused, expanded, or reversed
• Natural reference points for intraday structure and range analysis
Instead of plotting these elements using multiple separate scripts, this indicator integrates them into one consistent framework so that all levels are calculated using the same timezone, session logic, and display rules.
This avoids mismatched session times, duplicate levels, or conflicting calculations that can occur when multiple scripts are used simultaneously.
How the script works (high-level)
• Each session is defined using user-selectable session times and timezone
• During a session, the script tracks the highest and lowest traded price
• When a session ends, its final high and low are stored as the “previous session” levels
• PDH and PDL are calculated using the completed trading day
• Lines and labels are anchored to the bars where levels are formed, rather than extending indefinitely
• Optional display filters allow users to show only the current trading day to reduce chart clutter
No forward-looking logic, prediction, alerts, or trade execution logic is included.
How to use it
This script is intended to be used as a visual reference tool to help traders:
• Identify session boundaries and intraday ranges
• Observe how price reacts near prior session highs and lows
• Assess where price is trading relative to PDH and PDL
• Maintain consistent session timing across different timezones
The script does not provide trade entries, exits, alerts, or performance claims.
Important notes
• This indicator does not generate buy or sell signals
• It does not predict future price movement
• It is not a trading strategy
• All decisions remain the responsibility of the user

Opening Range candle percent of ATRIt takes the opening range of the first candle - 5, 10, 15 or whatever minute - and finds what percent of the ATR that is. So if the opening candle high is 15 and low is 14, its range is 1. If the ATR (daily or whatever you want) is 2, then the opening candle's range is 50% of the ATR.
The percentage is displayed on right in a blue box.
The indicator is used in reversal strategies, since opening candles that eat up a large amount of the daily ATR have a higher probability of reversing.

VORB DJB Trades V1VORB by DJB Trades (Version 1) is a complete intraday framework built around the New York session Opening Range Breakout (ORB), combined with higher-timeframe VWAPs and precise Fair Value Gap mapping.
This tool is designed to give you context, levels and confluence at a glance – no more stacking 5 different indicators on your chart.
🔶 Core ORB Logic (NY Session)
• Uses the 09:30–09:45 NY time 15-minute ORB range.
• Draws an ORB box from high to low during the ORB window.
• Projects clean high/low ORB lines across the session (up to your chosen end time, default 18:00 NY).
• Displays the ORB size in points above the box
• 1 point = 4 ticks (futures-style logic).
This gives an instant sense of how “wide” or “tight” the opening drive was, and how much room you have for trend or mean-reversion plays.
📐 Daily VWAP (Intraday Bias)
• Custom anchor time (default 18:00, NY session close style).
• Plots Daily VWAP plus +/-1 standard deviation bands.
• Full styling controls: colors, line widths, band fill etc.
• You can limit visibility to specific timeframes via dropdown (e.g. only show on 1–5m, or just intraday).
VWAP +/-1 deviation bands gives you intraday bias and “fair value” zones to frame trades around the ORB.
🕒 Higher Timeframe VWAPs (Weekly, Monthly, Yearly)
All three higher-TF VWAPs are calculated the same way (volume-weighted, streaming) but anchored at different structural points:
• Weekly VWAP – resets at the start of each week
• Monthly VWAP – resets at the start of each month
• Yearly VWAP – resets at the start of each year
Each has:
• Main VWAP line
• ±/-1 standard deviation bands
• Independent color / width / band fill settings
• Timeframe visibility controls (“show from TF” & “show up to TF”) so you can do things like:
⁃ Weekly VWAP only from 5m and above
⁃ Monthly on 1h and higher
⁃ Yearly only on Daily/Weekly/Monthly
Use these as higher-timeframe bias references and key dynamic value areas above/below the ORB.
📊 1m FVGs (Outside ORB & VWAP Bands)
For precision entries:
• Detects 1-minute Fair Value Gaps (classic 3-candle pattern):
⁃ Bullish FVG: low > high
⁃ Bearish FVG: high < low
• Only plots FVGs that are:
⁃ Outside the ORB range, and
⁃ Outside the Daily VWAP +/-1 bands
• FVG boxes are auto-extended to the right (4× original width) for clear “liquidity pockets”.
• Separate colors for bullish and bearish FVGs.
This helps you focus only on “clean” imbalances away from the opening chop and mid-range value.
⚙️ Customisation & Use
• Works best on US indices, FX and futures during the NY session.
• Optimised for 1m–15m ORB trading, but higher-TF VWAPs shine on 5m, 15m, 1h and Daily.
• Every visual element (ORB box, lines, VWAPs, bands, FVGs, label text/bg) is fully customisable in the settings.

London Killzone: Default 02:00 - 05:00 (NY Time)
New York Killzone: Default 09:30 - 16:00 (NY Time)
Killzone Tools:
Boxes: Draw highlighted boxes for each session.
Pivots: Automatically mark the High and Low of each session.
Midpoints: Optionally show the 50% equilibrium level of the session range.
Extensions: Extend pivot lines until they are mitigated (price touches them) or keep them for a set duration.
Alerts: Get notified when a session High or Low is broken.
2. Highs & Lows (HTF Levels)
Track significant liquidity levels from higher timeframes without switching charts:
Previous Day High/Low (PDH/PDL)
Previous Week High/Low (PWH/PWL)
Previous Month High/Low (PMH/PML)
Current High/Low of Day (HOD/LOD): Tracks the developing high and low of the current day.
Current High/Low of Week (HOW/LOW): Tracks the developing high and low of the current week.
3. Opening Price Lines
Mark key opening prices to use as support/resistance or bias confirmation:
True Day Open (00:00 NY)
Week Open
Month Open
Custom Open Lines: Configure up to 8 custom time-based open price lines (e.g., 06:00, 10:00, 14:00).
4. Separators & Statistics
Period Separators: Vertical lines marking the start of new Days, Weeks, or Months.
Range Table: Display the range (in pips/points) of recent sessions and their average to gauge volatility.
Customization
Timezone: Fully adjustable to your preferred timezone (default America/New_York).
Styling: Customize colors, line styles, widths, and label sizes for all elements.
Drawing Limits: Optimize chart cleanliness by limiting historical drawings to the last N days.
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Open Settings to enable/disable specific Killzones (Asia, London, NY).
Enable "Show PDH/PDL" or "Show HOW/LOW" to track liquidity.
Set your convenient timezone (typically NY for ICT concepts).
Use alerts to catch liquidity runs on session pivots.
Market Pressure Regime [Interakktive]The Market Pressure Regime (MPR) is a 4-state market classifier that models how structural forces create "pressure zones" — regions where price movement is either supported (Release) or suppressed (Pinned) by market microstructure.
It combines compression analysis, follow-through efficiency, and stress detection into a composite pressure score, classifying markets into Release, Suppressed, Transition, or Trap states — helping traders understand WHY price is moving (or not moving) in the current environment.
█ USAGE
MPR addresses a core question traders face: Is the market in a regime where directional moves are likely to follow through, or is it structurally pinned?
For swing traders, MPR identifies Release phases where momentum strategies work best, and Suppressed phases where mean reversion dominates.
For day traders, it highlights Trap conditions — high effort with no follow-through — where reversals are probable and trend entries fail.
🔹 The 4-State Model
The indicator classifies markets into four distinct regimes:
• Release (Teal): Pressure score ≥ +5. Directional flow dominates. Price moves efficiently with follow-through. Favor trend continuation.
• Suppressed (Grey): Pressure score ≤ -5. Compression dominates. Price is range-bound or pinned. Fade extremes, expect reversion.
• Transition (Amber): Score between thresholds OR instability detected. Regime is uncertain — wait for confirmation before committing.
• Trap (Magenta): High stress + low follow-through. Effort without result. Expect reversals.
🔹 Reading the Pressure Histogram
The histogram displays the composite Pressure Score (range approximately -100 to +100):
• Positive values: Follow-through exceeds compression. Market is "releasing" — directional moves are supported.
• Negative values: Compression exceeds follow-through. Market is "suppressed" — price movement is constrained.
• Color reflects confirmed state: The histogram uses persistence filtering — a state must hold for N bars before the color changes, preventing false signals from noise.
🔹 The 5-Stage Calculation
MPR synthesizes five analytical stages into the final state:
1. Compression Score: Measures how tight the current range is relative to ATR. High compression suggests structural forces are pinning price.
2. Follow-Through Score: Measures price path efficiency (MER-style). Efficient moves indicate genuine directional flow, not chop.
3. Stress Score: Detects effort-without-result (ERD-style). High volume or range with no price progress = absorption.
4. Composite Pressure: Combines follow-through and compression into a single directional score.
5. Persistence Filter: Requires states to hold for configurable bars before confirming, eliminating flickering.
█ SETTINGS
Core Settings
• ATR Length: Period for volatility normalization. Default 14.
• Baseline Lookback: Period for compression and efficiency baselines. Default 20.
• Volume Average Length: Period for stress calculation baseline. Default 20.
State Classification
• Release Threshold: Pressure score above this = Release. Default +5.
• Suppressed Threshold: Pressure score below this = Suppressed. Default -5.
• Trap Threshold: Stress score above this (with low follow-through) = Trap. Default 30.
• Persistence Bars: Bars required to confirm state change. Default 3.
• Stability Lookback: Period for stability calculation. Default 20.
• Stability Threshold: Below this = forced Transition state. Default 0.5.
Visual Settings
• Show Pressure Histogram: Display the main pressure score histogram.
• Show Zero Line: Display the zero reference line.
• Show Background Tint: Subtle background color by state (default OFF).
Data Window
• Show Data Window Values: Export all calculated scores for analysis.
█ INTERPRETATION GUIDE
When to Use Trend Strategies (Release):
• Histogram tall and positive
• Teal coloring confirmed
• Price making efficient higher highs or lower lows
When to Use Mean Reversion (Suppressed):
• Histogram flat or negative
• Grey coloring confirmed
• Price oscillating without follow-through
When to Wait (Transition):
• Amber coloring
• Mixed signals — don't force trades
• Wait for state to resolve
When to Expect Reversals (Trap):
• Magenta coloring
• High volume moves that don't stick
• Often occurs at structural inflection points
█ COMPLEMENTARY TOOLS
MPR pairs well with:
• Volatility State Index (VSI) — Confirms whether volatility is expanding into the pressure regime
• Effort-Result Divergence (ERD) — Provides bar-by-bar absorption/vacuum detection
• Market Efficiency Ratio (MER) — Validates follow-through quality
█ SUITABLE MARKETS
Works across all liquid markets:
• Equities: SPY, QQQ, liquid single stocks
• Futures: ES, NQ, CL, GC
• Crypto: BTC, ETH
• Forex: Major pairs
Works on any timeframe, but 1H–Daily provides cleanest regime classification. Intraday (5m–15m) useful for session-level tactical decisions.

HPDR Bands with projectionHPDR: Historical Price Delta Range
What is it? The HPDR indicator measures how much an asset’s price typically changes over a specific timeframe. It looks at historical price movements ("deltas") and organizes them into percentiles. These are then plotted on your chart as a median line surrounded by statistical bands.
This tool helps you understand an asset’s unique character and its typical price deviations.
Because the median is in this context a statistically relative stable value(if you add 7 values to 1000 it doesn't change much), it allows for high-probability projections of the future median.
For a clearer understanding of the indicator's logic, try setting the Range to 7 and the Offset to -7.
The 50% percentile Band signifies that in 50% of all bars, the price remained within this statistical range.
