Forex session - Opening Range- Jayy fixed updatedOpening Range (OR) for Forex 24 hour regular session. This is not for regular market day sessions addressed in a separate script.
This script fixes four issues:
syntax error when code compiles
messed up opening range the day after a holiday Monday
flaky plotting of the opening range and targets that required page reloading
TradingView problems with starting forex session at 1700 hours EST/EDT when using certain securities eg FX_IDC currently (Jan 2017)
Additions in his code are more options for trading range
Time compensation option for some securities that incorrectly start sessions at 1200 hrs instead of 1700 hrs NY time
- this glitch is likely temporary but present when this script update was created
More opening range time period choices
Opening Range Targets:
Opening Range Targets as per Leaf_West
Targets are set at 127% , 162%, 200 %, 262 %, 362%, 423%, 685%, 1109% and 1794% and this can be traded intraday using methods described here charts-by-leaf.com I also have some Leaf West PDFs that describe how the targets are set and how they are traded. There are others that use opening range.
The Time Session Glitch and the Fix:
The script will correctly default to 1700 hrs to 1700hrs EDT/EST session for FXCM.
Strangely some securities appear to erroneously start their session at 1200 hrs ie. My guess is that they are somehow tied to GMT+0 instead of New York time (GMT+5). See this for yourself by selecting EURUSD using the FXCM exchange (FX:EURUSD) and then EURUSD from the IDC exchange (FX_IDC:EURUSD). The FX-IDC session opening range starts 5 hours
before it actually should at 1700 hrs EDT/EST. To correct for this I have implemented an automatic fix (default) and a user selected "5 hour time shift adjust. ment needed on some securities".
There is also a 4 hour time shift button which might be necessary when New York reverts from Eastern Standard Time
to Eastern Daylight Time (1 hour difference) in March (and then back again in November). In the default auto adjust mode you will need to select the 1 hour time shift. That is if this glitch still exists at that time.
I have looked at other scripts, other than my own and where the script is available, that need to use information about the opening bar and all have the same time shift issue
What are the choices for Opening Range?
The dialogue box offers the standard TradingView options.
Also where you see Pick Opening Range 1 to 12 hours , SET TO 0 To USE LINE ABOVE TO DETERMINE OR LENGTH
As the note says a number other than 0 will override the standard options from the line above
The dialogue box below in offers choices by hours 1 to 12. A number greater than 12 will still only give
720 minutes (12 hours) for the length of Opening Range.
What sessions within the FOREX time-frame are available?
The default is 1700 hours to 1700 hours EST/EDT
Check any one (only one) of the time periods to change the opening range period to suit.
New York opens at 8:00 am to 5:00 pm EST (EDT)
Tokyo opens at 7:00 pm to 4:00 am EST (EDT)
Sydney opens at 5:00 pm to 2:00 am EST (EDT)
London opens at 3:00 am to 12:00 noon EST (EDT)
There is a build your own session (click the button to select)
The two lines for inputting session times are almost identical except that the second line starts the be the same as each other.
The default for the build your own session is 2200 hours to 2200 hours. As of the time of publishing this plots EURUSD FX-IDC just right. The GMT+5 and GMT+4 do not apply to this selection.
See my comments above on this strange aberration.
The script originated from work done by Chris Moody. It has changed significantly but there are remnants of that script lurking within.
Script is free to all - that way you can see what is inside
Cheers Jayy

Market Meanness Index-Price ChangesThis is the Market Mean index. It is used to identify if the market is really trending or if it is range bound(random). In theory, a random sample will be mean reverting 75% of the time. This indicator checks to see what how much the market is mean reverting and converts it to a percentage. If the index is around 75 or higher than the price curve of the market is range bound and there is no trend from a statistical standpoint. If the index is below 75 this means the price curve of the market is in fact trending in a direction as the market is not reverting as much as it should if it were truly following a random/range bound price curve.

Profile Edge Trading - Range BreakoutOpening Range Breakout (ORB) & Profile Confluence
The indicator is an all-in-one institutional trading system. It combines the volatility of the session open with the structural context of Market Profile (TPO) to identify high-probability breakout entries while filtering out "bull and bear traps."
What It Does
Most ORB strategies fail because they ignore where the market is trading relative to "Value." This indicator solves that by aligning the Opening Range (OR) with the Previous Day’s Value Area (VAH/VAL/POC).
It triggers Buy/Sell marks only when price breaks the opening range and aligns with the broader profile structure, ensuring you are trading with the institutional trend rather than against it.
Key Features
Smart ORB Signals: Automatic Buy/Sell marks based on Opening Range breakouts, filtered by volume and profile structure.
Dual Chart Modes: * Market Profile (TPO): View the historical distribution of price.
Hybrid Candlestick: Toggle to candlesticks for intraday execution while keeping the profile levels visible.
Profile Confluence Filter: Validates breakouts only if they occur relative to the Previous Day High (VAH), Low (VAL), or Point of Control (POC).
Visual Risk Management: Automatically plots Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels on the chart the moment a signal triggers.
Customizable Reward: Adjust your desired Risk/Reward ratio (e.g., 1:2, 1:3) directly in the input settings.
Multi-Timeframe Logic: Use TPOs for structural context and candlesticks for precise entry timing.
How to Use
Define the Range: Set your Opening Range time (e.g., first 5, 15, or 30 minutes) in the settings.
Risk/Reward Ratio: Input your Reward Ration (e.g., 1.5, 2 )

Opening Range Breakout (ORB) with Dual Timezones + Auto-OffOpening Range (Dual TZ) + Auto-Off (Clean)
This indicator plots a clean Opening Range Box (ORB) with ORH/ORL levels and a midline, built for traders who want structure without clutter.
The main feature is Dual Timezone support, meaning you can run two separate Opening Ranges in parallel (TZ1 + TZ2) on the same chart — ideal if you track multiple market opens (e.g., NY + London) from one workspace.
Key Features
• Dual ORB sessions (TZ1 + TZ2)
• Customization of both timezones, ORB principles (that suits you the best)
• Run two independent opening range sessions simultaneously
• Each has its own range calculation, box, ORH/ORL lines, labels, fill, and midline
• Clean output (no targets, no breakout signals)
• Focused on the core OR structure only
• Great for discretionary trading and level-based execution
• Separate Auto-Off for TZ1 and TZ2
• Automatically removes ALL drawings after a user-defined time (minutes after OR end)
• Helps keep charts clean during the rest of the day
• TZ1 and TZ2 can be disabled on different timers
• Historical toggle
• If Show Historical Data = OFF, the script deletes previous session drawings at the next session start
• If ON, prior sessions remain visible
What’s Drawn
• Opening Range box (high/low during session)
• ORH (Opening Range High) line + label
• ORL (Opening Range Low) line + label
• Midline (average of ORH/ORL)
• Highlight fill between ORH/ORL
Typical Use Cases
• Track NY ORB + London ORB at the same time
• Use ORH/ORL as intraday support/resistance anchors
• Keep your chart clean with Auto-Off after your active trading window
Notes
• Works best on the 1/5 minute timeframes (the OR is session-based).
• If both sessions overlap, drawings may overlap as well — that’s expected since both ORBs are active simultaneously.
Golden Session ORB - Execution & Visualization Tool🎯 Optimize Your Execution with Golden Session ORB
The Golden Session ORB is a technical execution tool designed for traders who specialize in Opening Range Breakouts. Its primary goal is to provide a clean, professional visualization of liquidity levels across the three most critical trading sessions: Asia (18:00), NYC Pre-Market (08:00), and the Wall Street Open (09:30).
This script is not an automated signal system. It is a decision-support tool that manages range levels and visual structure, allowing the trader to focus exclusively on price action analysis and high-quality execution.
⏱️ Recommended Timeframes For optimal performance and precise box formation, this indicator should be used on:
1 Minute (1m): Ideal for observing the fine details of range formation and breakout precision.
15 Minutes (15m): Ideal for a clearer structural perspective of the session’s development.
💎 Key Features:
Automatic Multi-Session Structure: Automatically identifies and plots support and resistance levels from the opening minutes of each session.
Dynamic Extended Boxes: Ranges project forward automatically to help you identify key supply and demand zones throughout the day.
"Intention Candle" Visual Aid (Optional): The script highlights candles that show a confluence of volume and trend alignment (EMAs).
Note: These highlighted candles are NOT buy/sell alerts. They are a visual guide to help you identify moments of potential interest based on your own criteria.
📊 Backtesting & Risk Management This tool is perfect for manual backtesting, allowing you to study how price historically reacts to each session's levels.
Trading Recommendation: While opening range breakouts can lead to massive expansions, markets remain volatile. It is highly recommended to secure partial profits during the move and actively manage your risk to protect your capital from sudden price reversals.

ATR Bands (MA Distance)ATR Bands (MA Distance) plots volatility-based bands at a multiple of ATR away from a selected moving average.
Unlike percentage envelopes or standard deviation bands, this indicator measures distance from the moving average using ATR, representing the market’s normal “breathing range” rather than statistical probability.
Key Features
The center line is a selectable moving average (EMA, SMA, RMA/Wilder, or WMA).
Upper and lower bands are calculated as:
Moving Average ± ATR × Multiplier
Band width automatically adapts to changing market volatility.
Designed for consistent use across different markets and timeframes without parameter re-optimization.
Non-repainting: all values are calculated only from confirmed historical bars.
Intended Use
ATR Bands (MA Distance) is best used as a context and preparation tool , not as a direct entry or exit signal.
Typical use cases include:
Identifying areas where price is extended relative to its recent volatility.
Visualizing normal vs. stretched price distance from the moving average.
Supporting range-based analysis or trade preparation when combined with other indicators (e.g., oscillators).
Important Notes / How NOT to Use
This indicator does NOT generate buy or sell signals by itself .
Touching or crossing a band does not imply an automatic reversal.
In strong trending markets, price may stay outside the bands for extended periods.
ATR Bands should not be interpreted as overbought/oversold levels on their own.
This indicator does NOT repaint. Once a bar is closed, its values will not change.
For best results:
Use ATR Bands as a preparation zone, then wait for confirmation from your own entry logic.
Disable or ignore band-based mean-reversion ideas during strong trend conditions.
Concept Summary (Short)
ATR Bands (MA Distance) visualize how far price has moved from its moving average in terms of volatility, without repainting and without relying on percentage deviation or statistical assumptions.
Optional Short Description (Preview)
Volatility-based, non-repainting ATR bands plotted at a distance from a moving average.
Designed for market context and trade preparation — not standalone signals.

Elite Monday Range V3- ProfessionalElite Monday Range V3 - Advanced Institutional Bias & Analysis
Overview
The Elite Monday Range V3 is a high-performance decision-support tool designed for traders who utilize the "Weekly Open" and "Monday's Range" as their primary benchmark for the trading week. Unlike standard range indicators, this script employs an advanced Multi-Asset Analysis Engine to determine the weekly bias with institutional-grade precision.
It doesn't just draw lines; it analyzes Previous Week's Close (PWC), Monday's Candle Structures (Price Action), and Internal Liquidity to provide a definitive "Directional Bias" and "Confidence Score."
Key Features
Smart Multi-Asset Detection: Automatically detects if you are trading Forex, Crypto, or Indices and adjusts its internal logic and strategy suggestions accordingly.
Institutional Bias Engine: Calculates a Confidence Score (from -4 to +4) based on 4 critical criteria:
Price vs. Previous Week Close: Checks if the bulls or bears are maintaining momentum from the prior week.
Monday Candle Analysis: Automatically identifies Pin Bars (Liquidity Grabs) or Strong Engulfing movements.
Price vs. Monday Midpoint (Equilibrium): The ultimate pivot point for weekly trend direction.
Price vs. Weekly Open: Tracks the "true" opening sentiment.
Liquidity Hunt Signals (Judas Swing): Visual alerts for LIQ BUY and LIQ SELL when price sweeps Monday's extremes and returns inside the range—a classic sign of institutional manipulation before a trend.
Symmetric Expansion Levels: Projects +50%, +100%, -50%, and -100% extensions of the Monday range to identify high-probability Take Profit (TP) and reversal zones.
Dynamic Professional Dashboard: A sleek, real-time table on your chart that summarizes Asset Type, Weekly Bias, Candle Info, and the Confidence Score.
Force Overlay Technology: Ensures all lines and labels remain visible and crisp on the top layer, above candles and other indicators.
How to Trade with the Elite Dashboard
Check the "Net Weekly Bias": Look for STRONG BULL or STRONG BEAR.
Verify Confidence Score: A score of 3 or 4 (or -3/-4 for shorts) indicates high-probability conditions.
Identify Entry: If the Bias is "STRONG BULL," wait for a retest of the Monday Mid (MID) or Monday High (MON H).
Confirm with Liquidity: Look for a LIQ BUY signal near the Monday Low for the highest-quality "A+ Setup."
Target: Use the Expansion Levels (+50% / +100%) as your primary targets for the week.
Technical Settings
Lookback Weeks: Choose exactly how many historical weeks to display to keep your chart clean.
Customizable Colors: Fully adjustable colors for Monday ranges and expansion projections.
Line Width: User-defined thickness for professional visual clarity.
EMA RANGEEMA RANGE
EMA RANGE is a simple, price-focused indicator that plots an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a dynamic ATR-based range above and below it. The ATR bands adapt to market volatility, helping traders visualize normal price movement and identify potential expansion or compression zones.
🔹 Features
Customizable EMA length
ATR range bands plotted above and below the EMA
Adjustable ATR length and multiplier
Toggle to enable or disable ATR ranges
Fully customizable colors and line thickness from the Style tab
🔹 How It Works
The EMA serves as the central trend reference.
The Average True Range (ATR) measures volatility.
Upper and lower bands are calculated as:
EMA ± (ATR × Multiplier)
When price remains inside the range, conditions are considered normal. Moves outside the range may signal increased volatility, momentum expansion, or potential breakout conditions.
🔹 Best Use Cases
Trend continuation and pullback analysis
Volatility-based risk framing
Dynamic support and resistance visualization
Works on any market and timeframe
EMA RANGE is designed to stay clean, responsive, and easy to interpret—making it suitable for both discretionary and systematic traders.
Market Session Terrain Monitor v1.0Summary
Market Session Terrain Monitor helps traders understand where the market is within its normal intraday behavior, not where it should go. It is a decision-support tool designed to reduce late entries, over-trading, and narrative bias by grounding intraday analysis in historical session statistics.
Purpose
Market Session Terrain Monitor provides statistical context for intraday market movement by analyzing how much each major trading session typically moves, how much it has moved so far, and what market state the current session inherits from previous sessions.
The indicator is designed to answer one core question:
Is the current session early, normal, or already expanded relative to its historical behavior?
This indicator does not predict direction and does not generate buy or sell signals. It is intended as a context and state-awareness tool to support independent, structure-based decision making.
Sessions Analyzed
The trading day is divided into three independent sessions, defined in UTC time:
• Asia
• London
• New York
Each session is analyzed separately using its own historical data. No session is assumed to control or predict the behavior of another.
Session Range
For each session, the indicator measures the session range, defined as the session high minus the session low. This captures how much the market actually moved during that session, regardless of direction.
P90 Expansion Benchmark
For each session, the indicator calculates a P90 expansion benchmark.
• P90 represents the range that only about ten percent of historical sessions exceed
• It reflects a large but repeatable expansion, not an extreme outlier
• It is used as a normalization reference so sessions with different volatility characteristics can be compared on equal terms
The P90 values are displayed in the table header in price units, such as USD, as a reference for scale.
Percent of P90
Current and previous session ranges are expressed as a percentage of that session’s own P90.
This shows:
• How much of a statistically large session has already been used
• Whether the session is still early, behaving normally, or approaching expansion
Rolling Comparative Table
The table displays three rows, ordered by time and anchored to the current active session:
• Current · Session
• Previous · Session
• Previous-2 · Session
Each row shows:
• Session name
• Session range in price units
• Session range as a percentage of that session’s P90
This rolling layout provides context about the market state inherited by the current session without implying causality.
How to Use the Indicator
The indicator helps with:
• Identifying whether a session is early or late in its statistical range
• Avoiding entries when a session is already stretched
• Recognizing compression versus expansion regimes
• Understanding the market state the current session inherits
The indicator does not:
• Predict direction
• Forecast highs or lows
• Assume that one session determines the next
Directional decisions should come from price structure, execution rules, and risk management.
Design Philosophy
• Range first, direction second
• State awareness over narrative
• Statistical normalization instead of absolute numbers
• Comparative, not predictive
The indicator intentionally avoids estimating remaining range or subtracting previous session movement, as those approaches introduce bias and false causality.
Suitable Markets
• Gold and silver
• Forex pairs
• Indices
• Other liquid instruments with clear session behavior
Volatility High/Low Projection (PHOD / PLOD)AP Capital – Volatility + High/Low Projection
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability intraday turning points by combining daily range statistics, session behaviour, and volatility context into a single clean framework.
It is built for index, forex, and metals traders who want structure, not noise.
🔹 Core Features
1️⃣ Potential High of Day (PHOD) & Potential Low of Day (PLOD)
The indicator highlights likely intraday extremes based on:
Session timing (Asia, London, New York)
Current day volatility vs historical averages
Prior day expansion or compression behaviour
Each level is displayed with:
A clear label (PHOD / PLOD)
A forward-extending box acting as a live Point of Interest (POI)
Automatic invalidation when price breaks the zone
2️⃣ Volatility & Range Context (Info Panel)
A compact information panel in the top-right corner provides real-time context without cluttering the chart:
20-Day Average Range
% of the average range already used today
Range status (NORMAL / EXHAUSTED)
Average session ranges for:
Asia
London
New York
This allows traders to immediately assess whether price is:
Early in the day with room to trend
Statistically stretched and prone to reversal
Over-extended where breakout chasing is risky
3️⃣ Session-Aware Logic
The model respects how markets behave across the trading day:
Asia favours accumulation and potential lows
London provides expansion
New York often delivers distribution or exhaustion
This prevents random high/low marking and focuses only on structurally meaningful levels.
🧠 How to Use
Use PHOD / PLOD boxes as reaction zones, not blind entries
Combine with your own confirmation (structure break, momentum, volume, EMA reclaim, etc.)
Avoid chasing trades when the Range Status = EXHAUSTED
Particularly effective on 15m – 1h timeframes
⚠️ Important Notes
This indicator does not repaint
It is contextual, not a buy/sell signal generator
Best used as part of a complete trading plan
📈 Suitable Markets
XAUUSD (Gold)
Indices (NASDAQ, S&P 500, DAX)

Opening Range Breakout with VWAP & RSI ConfirmationThis indicator identifies breakout trading opportunities based on the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy combined with intraday VWAP and higher timeframe RSI confirmation.
Opening Range: Calculates the high, low, and midpoint of the first 15 or 30 minutes (configurable) after your specified market open time.
Intraday VWAP: A volume-weighted average price calculated manually and reset daily, tracking price action throughout the trading day.
RSI Confirmation: Uses RSI from a user-selected higher timeframe (1H, 4H, or Daily) to confirm signals.
Buy Signal: Triggered when VWAP breaks above the Opening Range High AND the RSI is below or equal to the buy threshold (default 30).
Sell Signal: Triggered when VWAP breaks below the Opening Range Low AND the RSI is above or equal to the sell threshold (default 70).
Visuals: Plots Opening Range levels and VWAP on the chart with clear buy/sell markers and optional labels showing RSI values.
Alerts: Provides alert conditions for buy and sell signals to facilitate timely trading decisions.
This tool helps traders capture momentum breakouts while filtering trades based on momentum strength indicated by RSI.
RTH Opening Range with ExtensionsTool that maps the opening range, opening range mid and extensions. Defaults are 5min OR with 1x extensions. You can customize to 1min, 5min, 15min or 30min opening ranges. Nothing complicated and certainly vibe coded with the help of Claude AI.
Session Ranges Pro+Session Range Zones – Professional Edition
OVERVIEW
Professional visualization of the classic opening-range / Initial Balance concept across Asian, London, and Regular (US) sessions.
Displays the high/low of the user-defined opening window as thick, hierarchical filled zones with optional Fibonacci and standard-deviation extensions plus full alerting.
CONCEPT BACKGROUND
Using the high and low of the first 30–60 minutes of a session as key support/resistance is public-domain knowledge that has been standard in institutional trading for decades (Initial Balance, Opening Range, Session Range, etc.).
On TradingView the same principle was popularized under the name “Defining / DealingRange / DR/IDR” by TheMas7er and others.
IMPLEMENTATION & VALUE ADDED
This indicator follows the established, public-domain range-calculation methodology but has been completely rewritten with the following original enhancements:
• Clean, filled High / Mid / Low zones for instant visual hierarchy
• Intuitive Asian / London / Regular session labelling and fully custom timing
• Comprehensive dynamic & static Fibonacci and 50%/100% standard-deviation extensions
• Alert conditions on every zone, midline, opening level, and extension line
• Modern, modular code architecture using arrays and custom drawing functions
• No repainting, lightweight performance on any intraday timeframe
HOW TO USE
Apply to 1–15 min charts. Select desired sessions and formation period (30 or 60 min typical).
Shaded zones serve as primary support/resistance; extensions provide measured-move targets.
CREDIT & TRANSPARENCY
Core methodology: public domain (Initial Balance / Opening Range / Session Range).
Early TradingView popularization of the DR/IDR naming and feature set: TheMas7er **(with thanks to community contributors like bmsitiaan and trading-guide for refinements)**.
**Utilizes PineCoders' VisibleChart library for optimized chart rendering.**
This script uses the same foundational principle and logical input options but is an independent implementation. All visual presentation, zone system, multi-session handling, extension systems, alerting framework, and underlying code structure are original.

NQ Manipulation/Distribution Projections + Average RangeThis is not your typical OHLC indicator :)
Overview:
The Manipulation/Distribution Projections (OHLC Stats) indicator is a powerful tool designed to forecast potential price levels for various timeframes. It operates on a simple yet profound principle: price action within a single candle can be broken down into "manipulation" and "distribution" phases. By analyzing over 17 years of historical data for major assets in Python, this script calculates the average (mean) and typical (median) extent of these movements.
These statistical insights are then used to project key levels on your chart based on the current period's opening price, providing a statistically-grounded framework for potential support, resistance, and price targets.
Key Concepts Explained
The indicator's logic is based on how price wicks and bodies form relative to the opening price.
• Manipulation: This refers to the initial move that goes against the candle's eventual direction. For a bullish candle, it's the lower wick (the move from the open down to the low before reversing higher). For a bearish candle, it's the upper wick (the move from the open up to the high before selling off). It represents a "fake out" or a stop hunt.
• Distribution: This is the primary, directional move of the candle from the opening price. For a bullish candle, it's the distance from the open to the high. For a bearish candle, it's the distance from the open to the low. It represents the "real" intended direction of price for that period.
How It Works
This indicator does not calculate these ratios in real-time. Instead, it leverages a comprehensive statistical analysis performed externally in Python on over 17 years of OHLC data. This analysis determined the mean and median ratios for both Manipulation and Distribution movements across different timeframes and, for intraday periods, different times of day.
These pre-computed, static ratios are embedded directly into the script. When a new period begins (e.g., a new day on the Daily timeframe), the indicator:
1. Takes the opening price for that period.
2. Retrieves the corresponding pre-calculated Manipulation and Distribution ratios.
3. Applies these ratios to the opening price to project eight potential price levels:
o + / - Mean Distribution
o + / - Median Distribution
o + / - Mean Manipulation
o + / - Median Manipulation
This approach provides a stable, forward-looking set of levels for the entire duration of the trading period.

Features
• Statistically-Derived Projections: Plots eight key price levels based on historical tendencies, providing clear potential zones for entries, exits, and stop placement.
• Selectable Timeframe: Choose to view projections for the 1H, 4H, 1D, or 1W periods directly from the settings.
• Dynamic Stats Table: A powerful, on-chart dashboard that provides real-time context. For all four timeframes (1H, 4H, 1D, 1W), it shows:
o Position: Where the current price is relative to the projected zones (e.g., "In +Manip Zone," "Below -Dist").
o Range Completed: The percentage of the historical average range that the current period has already covered.
o Current & Average Range: The current high-to-low range in points vs. the historical average.
• Historical Context: You can display levels for previous periods to see how price has interacted with them in the past.
• Full Customization: Control the color, style, and visibility of every line, label, and fill to match your chart's theme.

How to Use
This indicator is versatile and can be integrated into various trading strategies.
• Identifying Targets & Reversal Zones: The Distribution levels (especially the zone between the median and mean) can serve as logical take-profit targets, as they represent a historical point of extension. Conversely, Manipulation levels can indicate areas where price might form a wick and reverse.
• Gauging Volatility: Use the Stats Table's "Range Completed" column to assess market conditions. If the 1D range is only 30% complete by mid-day, there may be room for significant expansion. If it's already at 150%, the market might be overextended and due for consolidation.
• Multi-Timeframe Confluence: Use the Stats Table to quickly check if the price on a lower timeframe (e.g., 1H) is approaching a significant level on a higher timeframe (e.g., 1D), adding more weight to that level.
• Defining Bias: If the price opens and holds above the Manipulation zones, it can signal a strong directional bias for the rest of the period.
