15-Min Opening Range Indicator & Breakout Targets (ORB)- Willy

🔍 Overview

The **15-Min ORB (Opening Range Breakout)** indicator automatically identifies the **first 15-minute high and low range** after a market opens — and plots breakout targets based on user-defined expansion multiples.

It’s designed for traders who use **Opening Range Breakout (ORB)** strategies across multiple markets or sessions — and want **precise timing adjusted to their own timezone**.
