Trading Session Range Boxes - MetaTrader 5용 지표

The indicator draws the Tokyo, London and New York trading sessions as coloured rectangles on the chart. Each rectangle starts at the session open, ends at the session close and spans the highest high and the lowest low reached during the session. This makes the range of every session and the overlaps between sessions visible at a glance.

Session hours are entered in broker server time, so they have to be adjusted to the GMT offset of your broker. The defaults fit a server running at GMT+2. A session that is still in progress is drawn up to the current bar and grows as new bars appear. Sessions without any bars, such as weekends and holidays, are skipped.

The boxes are redrawn once per new bar, so the indicator puts very little load on the terminal. It is intended for intraday timeframes from M1 to H1. All objects are removed from the chart when the indicator is deleted.
