Lts Sessions News

Know which market is open. Know when the next strong news hits. Never trade blind into a news spike again.

LTS Sessions & News is the market-timing indicator from LTS — Legacy Trading System. It draws the Asia, London and New York sessions on your chart, shows three clocks (broker server, GMT and your local time) and reads the next high-impact news straight from the MT5 economic calendar, with countdowns and alerts. No external website, no DLL, no setup.

◆ EVERYTHING ON ONE CHART

• Asia session — gold outline box with its high-low size.
• London session — blue outline box with its size.
• New York session — purple outline box with its size.
• News lines — red dotted vertical line for high-impact news, orange for medium impact (optional). Hover the line to read the event name.
  
  

◆ A PANEL THAT THINKS WITH YOU

• ✔ Three clocks — Server (the time of your candles), GMT (the time used by economic calendars) and Local (your computer). No more time-zone math.
• ✔ Live sessions — each session shows OPEN with the time until it closes, or the countdown until it opens. The London + New York overlap is flagged.
• ✔ Next news — the next 4 events with time, currency, impact color, name and countdown. The countdown turns red inside the alert time.
• ✔ News window — "NEWS WINDOW - BE CAREFUL" in red from 30 minutes before to 30 minutes after a high-impact event.
• ✔ Smart currency filter — AUTO uses the currencies of the chart symbol (gold and silver use USD), or type your own list such as USD,EUR.
• ✔ Smart alerts — popup and push before each news event, and optionally at each session open.
• ✔ One-click control — collapse the panel, hide the drawings or mute alerts.
• ✔ 3 languages — panel and alerts in English, Portuguese or Spanish.
• ✔ LTS chart theme — optional black background; your original chart comes back when you remove the indicator.
• ✔ 100% free — no trial, no time limit.
  
  

◆ HOW TO USE IT

• 1. Check the news window first. Spreads widen and price can jump during strong news.
• 2. Trade the right session. Breakout and trend strategies usually work best in London and in the London + New York overlap.
• 3. Combine it with LTS Asia Range. The Asia box sets the levels, London brings the breakout.
• 4. Protect your Expert Advisors. Use the panel to decide when to pause your robots around strong news.
  
  

◆ WORKS ON

• Any symbol: forex pairs, gold, silver and indices.
• Chart timeframe: M5 to H1 shows the sessions best.

Good to know: session hours use your broker's server time. Most brokers run GMT+2 in winter and GMT+3 in summer; adjust the hours if yours is different. News names come from the MT5 calendar in the language of your terminal. The MT5 calendar is not available in the Strategy Tester, so news is shown only on live charts.
