Day of Week and Opening Price – FX Replay Guide
In FX Replay, the Day of Week and Opening Price Indicator helps you visually align session bias with historical market behavior. It’s perfect for validating PO3 sequences, NY/Asia range traps, and DR/IDR expansions, especially when backtesting intraday strategies.
🛠 How to Set It Up
Add the Indicator:
- Open Indicators → search “Day of Week and Opening Price”.
- Apply it to your chart (preferably 1 M–15 M for execution-level clarity).
Customize Settings:
- Toggle day labels, opening-price lines, and gap highlighting (if available).
- Choose which sessions or days to display (e.g., hide weekends).
Trade Setup Use Cases
PO3 Day Bias:
- Use the day-of-week label to anticipate:
- Tuesday trend follow-through
- Friday reversal setups
- Combine with HTF PO3 + Zeussy session block for stronger narrative.
Opening Price as Bias Line:
- Price above daily open = bullish bias → consider only long setups.
- Price below daily open = bearish bias → focus on shorts.
- Retests of the open after sweeps = ideal entry triggers.
Backtest Strategy Enhancements
- Tag trade ideas such as:
- “Monday sweep + NY AM reversal below open”
- “Wednesday continuation + DR/IDR breakout from daily open”
- “Friday fade at HTF range top + open rejection”
- Evaluate win/loss ratio by day of the week and whether trades respected or rejected the daily open.
Combine With Tools
- SMMA / VWAP → confirm continuation or failure off open.
- Fractals / FVG → align entry timing with daily-open rejection or breakout.
- Volume spikes → validate if the daily-open level is attracting interest.
✅ Pro Tip
In FX Replay, the Day of Week + Opening Price Indicator is a bias filter and timing reference:

- Tuesday = trend confirmation
- Thursday = midweek reversal
- Friday = profit-taking or fade setups
This indicator provides narrative clarity, especially when paired with:
- HTF PO3
- Zeussy Cycles
- Volume + CMO confirmation
