Named Sessions

It determines session direction by comparing the opening price to the closing price, using the previous session's close if a gap exists before the current session's start.

The indicator automatically calculates the trend by subtracting the session's opening price from its closing price, providing a visual representation of market movement. For open sessions, it uses the current price to determine the trend, allowing real-time insights into market dynamics across different global trading centers.
