WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES (PLAIN AND SIMPLE)
This indicator draws important DAILY session levels and ranges on your chart so you can see key support/resistance and session structure at a glance.

It automatically plots lines + labels for:
- Daily High/Low
- Yesterday High/Low/Close and Yesterday Mid
- Weekly High/Low (based on recent days)
- Opening Range (first minutes after market open)
- Morning Range (a defined morning session)
- Yesterday Afternoon Range
- London Range
- New York Midnight Open
- Opening Gap range (between sessions)
- New Week Opening Gap (special weekly gap)

You can toggle each section ON/OFF and customize the colors, line widths, label offsets, and vertical markers.


WHAT YOU SEE ON THE CHART
For each enabled range/level, the script draws:
- Horizontal lines extending to the right
- Short labels (example: YH, YL, DH, DL, OH, OL, MH, ML, etc.)
- Optional vertical start/end lines for session windows
- Optional boxes for gap zones (Opening Gap / New Week Opening Gap)


HOW THE LEVELS ARE CALCULATED
Daily:
- Daily High (DH) and Daily Low (DL) come from the current day’s daily data.

Yesterday:
- Yesterday High (YH), Yesterday Low (YL), Yesterday Close (YC), and Yesterday Mid (YM).

Weekly:
- Weekly High (WH) and Weekly Low (WL) are calculated from recent daily highs/lows.

Session ranges (intraday):
- Opening Range: uses the Open Range Time window (default 09:30–10:05).
- Morning Range: uses the Morning Range Time window (default 09:30–12:00).
- London Range: uses the London Range Time window (default 02:00–05:00).
- Yesterday Afternoon Range: uses the specified afternoon window (default 13:30–16:00).
- NY Midnight Open: captures the open price during the midnight window (default 00:00–00:05).

Gap levels:
- Opening Gap Range: tracks high/low during the gap session window (default 16:15–09:30).
- New Week Opening Gap: captures the gap between the last price and the new week open.


BEST WAY TO USE IT
Use this as a structure tool for:
- Seeing where price is likely to react (session highs/lows)
- Planning breakouts (Opening Range / Morning Range)
- Identifying mean-reversion zones (yesterday levels, midpoints)
- Tracking gaps and fills (Opening Gap / New Week Opening Gap)

Common approaches:
- Breakout: wait for price to break ORH/ORL with momentum
- Reversal: watch for rejection at YH/YL or DH/DL
- Gap play: watch for fills and reactions around gap boundaries


SETTINGS YOU SHOULD TOUCH FIRST
1) Timezone
- Match your market session timezone (default is GMT-4).

2) Market Hours + Session Windows
- Adjust if you trade a different exchange or instrument.

3) Toggles
- Turn OFF anything you do not need to reduce chart clutter.

4) Label Offsets
- Increase offsets if labels overlap your candles.


IMPORTANT NOTES
- Session ranges (Opening/Morning/London/etc.) work best on minute/second charts.
- If you use higher timeframes, some session-based logic will not display the same way.
- This indicator is a visual levels tool only. It does not generate trade signals.
