ICT Sessions [TradeWithRon]

ICT Sessions [TradeWithRon] and killzones maps three intraday sessions on your chart (Asia, London, NY), tracks each session’s live high/low, draws optional session range boxes, and projects ICT OTE zones in real time—with granular styling, touch/mitigation logic, and alerting.

What it does

*Live Session high/low tracking.
Historical session lines:

• When a session ends, its final High/Low are preserved as tracked lines (with optional labels) for a configurable number of recent sessions.
  

Session boxes (ranges):

• Draws a shaded box from session start to end that expands with new highs/lows. Limit how many recent boxes remain on chart.
  

ICT OTE zones (live):

• For the currently active session, projects user-defined Fibonacci OTE levels (e.g., 61.8%, 70.5%, 78.6) between the session’s running high and low. Zones update tick-by-tick and can show labels. You can retain a history of recent sessions’ OTE levels.
  

Break visualization (mitigation):

• Optionally color the bar when price breaks a stored session High/Low. You can:
  
• Require a body close through the level (vs. any touch)
  
• Auto-remove the line and/or label on touch/close
  
• Use custom break colors per session and side (high/low)
  

Timestamps:

• Add up to two recurring vertical timestamp markers (e.g., 08:00, 09:30), plus an opening horizontal marker (e.g., 09:30) with label that extends until the next occurrence.
  

Alerts:

• Built-in alerts for:
  
• Touch of Session 1/2/3 High/Low (Asia/London/NY)
  
• Touch of OTE levels (per session)
  

Key inputs:
Time & Limits
Timezone (e.g., GMT-4)
Timeframe limit: hide all drawings on and above a specified TF

Sessions

• Session windows (default):
  
• Session 1 (Asia): 18:00–00:00
  
• Session 2 (London): 00:00–06:00
  
• Session 3 (NY): 08:00–12:00
  

• How many to keep (lines/boxes)
  
• Line width, colors, and label suffixes (“High”/“Low”)
  
• Labels: toggle, text (“Asia”, “London”, “NY”), size, and colors
  
• Boxes: toggle per session and background colors
  

ICT OTE Zones

• Toggle per session (Asia/London/NY)
  
• Levels (comma-separated %s, e.g., 61.8,70.5,78.6)
  
• History: number of past sessions to retain
  
• Opacity, line width/style, and label size
  
• Custom label text per session (e.g., “Asia OTE”)
  

Break/Mitigation Behavior:

• Enable Mitigated Candles (bar color on break)
  
• Remove line on touch and/or remove label on touch
  
• Require body close (vs. wick touch)
  
• Custom break colors by session and side
  

Timestamps

• Opening horizontal line (time, style, width, color, label text/size, drawing limit)
  
• Two vertical timestamps (times, style, width, color, drawing limit)
  

Alerts

• Master Enable Alerts
  
• Per-session toggles for High/Low touches
  
• OTE touch alerts
  

How it works (under the hood)

• Detects session state via input.session() windows in the chosen timezone.
  
• Live session High/Low lines and labels update in real time; on session end, final levels are stored with optional labels and tracked length.
  
• OTE zones are live-computed from current session High↔Low and refreshed every bar; a compact rolling history is enforced.
  
• Bar coloring reacts to break events (touch or body-close, per your setting) and uses session-specific colors when enabled.
  

Timestamp lines/labels are created on each occurrence and trimmed to a drawing limit for performance.

Tips:

• To hide session lines but keep boxes, set line color opacity to 0.
  
• Use Timeframe Limit to keep higher-TF charts clean.
  
• Fine-tune OTE Levels and History to balance clarity and performance.
  
• For stricter break logic, enable Require Body Close.
  

Note: The script reserves high limits for lines/labels/boxes to keep recent context visible while managing cleanup automatically. Adjust “Session Number” and “Number Of Boxes” to suit your workflow.
