ICT Sessions_One Setup for Life [MK]

How it works

The indicator identifies and plots specific trading session high and low levels for London, New York AM, New York Lunch, and New York PM sessions. It creates visual boxes and lines that mark the price extremes during these key market periods, allowing traders to easily recognize important price levels.

Additionally, the script calculates and displays RTH (Regular Trading Hours) opening gaps by connecting the previous day's closing price to the next day's opening price. These gap areas can be used as potential reference points for future price movement, with a midline option available to provide more detailed analysis.

Why it may be useful

Trading session levels provide crucial insights into market liquidity and potential trading areas by highlighting periods of significant price activity. These zones represent moments of high trading volume and concentrated market interest, which can serve as strategic entry and exit points for traders seeking to optimize their trading decisions.

The RTH gap visualization helps traders understand potential price behavior and market sentiment by showing overnight price movements. By identifying these gaps, traders can develop more informed strategies about potential price fills and market dynamics, enhancing their overall market understanding and decision-making process.

When to explore it

This indicator is most effective for traders focusing on intraday and short-term trading strategies, particularly those interested in liquid markets with clear session boundaries. It works best in highly active markets like forex, futures, and major stock indices where trading sessions have distinct characteristics and liquidity patterns.

Traders should use this tool in conjunction with other technical analysis methods and consider the specific market's typical behavior. The indicator is particularly useful for day traders and scalpers who need to quickly identify potential support and resistance levels within specific trading sessions.
