First Candle Sessions — LDN & NY
MT5 Indicator | M1 to H1 | London and New York Sessions
Automatically marks the High, Low and 50% midpoint of the first 5-minute candle at the opening of the London and New York sessions, creating a clear visual range to trade breakouts every day without any manual work.
Buy signal: when a subsequent candle closes above the High of the first candle.
Sell signal: when a subsequent candle closes below the Low of the first candle.
No signal: when price stays inside the range, the session is still undecided.
The indicator draws a blue zone for the London opening range and an orange zone for the New York opening range. A dotted midline marks the 50% equilibrium level inside each zone. The range size in pips is displayed directly on the chart next to each zone.
A real-time information panel shows the active session, the current server time, and the High, Low and 50% values for each session. The panel can be moved to any of the four corners of the screen using the PanelCorner parameter.
The indicator resets automatically at the start of each new trading day. If MetaTrader 5 is restarted mid-session, the indicator recovers the current day range from the bar history without requiring any manual action.
Works on M1, M5, M15, M30 and H1 charts. Regardless of the chart timeframe, it always reads the first 5-minute candle from the broker history to extract the High and Low values.
