Simple Sessions

13 mar

========== TLDR ==========

The "Simple Sessions" indicator plots vertical lines and labels at the open and close of the US (New York), Asia (Tokyo), and Europe (London), daily session. The existing session indicators I could find all changed the background color of the chart for the entire session or added extra information to the chart that cluttered up my view. This is meant to be a less noisy and easy to interpret indication that the session you trade has started or is ending.

========== Features ==========

- Show or hide vertical lines for session opens and closes
- Show or hide labels for session opens and closes
- Show or hide each session individually
- Show or hide just the session close indications
- Change the color used for each session open and close
- Change the labels text, size, and text color

========== Limitations ==========

The session start and end times are hard coded in for their time zones and can't be changed:
- US (New York) - 9:30 - 16:00
- Asia (Tokyo) - 9:00 - 15:00
- Europe (London) - 8:30 - 16:30

========== Use Cases ==========

- Easily see when each session started and ended without the chart being too noisy
- Make it easier to identify price action patterns and trade setups that may occur on the open of each session
