Custom Session Indicator by FX Replay
The Custom Session Indicator is a powerful chart overlay that allows traders to define and visualize up to six custom time-based trading sessions directly on their chart. Whether you're tracking market opens, kill zones, or institutional windows, this tool gives you full control over session plotting and labeling.
How It Works
- Once the indicator is added to your chart, it draws transparent session blocks and optional vertical lines based on the time ranges you define.
- You can configure up to six sessions using start and end times in UTC-4 (New York time).
- These sessions display on your chart as shaded regions, making it easy to spot overlapping market activity or specific time-based setups.
Session Configuration
- Enable up to six custom sessions using the time inputs under the Inputs tab.
- Assign custom labels to each session (e.g., “NY Session”, “London Open”) and choose a unique color for each label.
- Customize text size, horizontal and vertical alignment, and enable or disable text visibility.
- Plot vertical dashed lines at the start of each session to highlight transitions between time zones.
High Timeframe Highs & Lows (HTF)
- Enable daily, weekly, or monthly HTF highs/lows.
- Adjust the line style, thickness, extension length, and label size.
- Use the “Time to Reset Day” setting (based on NY time) to align your daily session with precision.
Rendering Controls
- Set the maximum number of days to render session zones.
- Define the maximum chart timeframe where the indicator will appear.
Who It’s For
- Traders relying on time-of-day setups (ICT concepts, NY open, London close)
- Session-based volume or volatility tracking
- Structuring charts around market hours or customized windows of interest
Whether you’re day trading forex, timing session overlaps, or tracking liquidity cycles, the Custom Session Indicator by FX Replay gives you the precision and clarity needed to make time-sensitive decisions directly from the chart.
