Sessions made simple [algoat]

The indicator — by default — provides a clear and concise representation of the four major global trading sessions. Each session is distinctly marked on your trading chart, helping you visualize the specific time periods when these markets are most active. Whether you're a day trader looking to exploit intraday volatility or a long-term investor wanting to understand broader market trends, the Market Sessions feature can be a useful tool in your trading toolkit. The indicator comes with a dashboard, displaying the remaining time until the session end if the session is active and next start if the session is inactive.

Don't forget to align indicator timezone settings according to your region!

⭐ Key Features:

Visual Session Markers
Each of the four trading sessions is fully configurable by visibility, title, time range, and more. The enabled sessions are distinctly marked on the chart with customizable colors, various display options, current sessions' end time and next sessions' start time.

Session Dashboard
The indicator includes a dashboard that displays the remaining time until the session end if the session is active, and the next start time if the session is inactive. This feature provides a quick reference for traders to plan their trading activities.

Timezone Settings
Easily align the indicator's timezone settings with your region by entering your time zone's offset in UTC hours. This ensures that the session times are accurately displayed according to your local time.

When using this or any other indicator, it is crucial to have proper risk management in place. Consider implementing stop-loss levels and thoughtful position sizing.

Combining with other technical indicators
Integrate this indicator with other technical indicators to develop a comprehensive trading strategy and provide additional confirmation.
