Silver Bullet 5 minutes Box - By KaVeH This indicator plots high-low range boxes based on selected intraday time windows on the 5-minute chart. It's inspired by the "Silver Bullet" trading concept, highlighting key liquidity grabs and volatility pockets at predefined times. It helps traders visually identify potential smart money trading windows during the New York session and other time anchors. ⚠️ This script only works on the 5-minute chart. 📦 Main Features: ⏰ Customizable Time Boxes: Define up to 4 separate time windows per day: 3:00 AM – 3:05 AM (New York time) (Box 1) 10:00 AM – 10:05 AM (New York time) (Box 2) 2:00 PM – 2:05 PM (New York time) (Box 3) 8:00 PM – 8:05 PM (New York time) (Box 4) 🎨 Color and Visibility Control: Each box can be independently toggled and colored for visual distinction. 🕔 New York Time Based: All timestamps are automatically adjusted to New York Time, aligning with institutional market behavior. 📉 Post-Box Projection: After each time window closes, a box extends forward 6 hours (72 bars on a 5-minute chart) to highlight the range. 💡 Use Case: These boxes are best used to: Detect liquidity sweeps. Mark potential entry or exit zones. Track price behavior after specific time-based events. For example, the 10 AM box is often used to identify setups just after the NYSE open and into the first hour of volatility. ⚠️ TradingView Compliance Notes: This script is original and does not replicate or resell premium/paid indicators.

Chart Box Session Indicator [The Quant Science]This indicator allows highlighting specific time sessions within a chart by creating colored boxes to represent the price range of the selected session. Is an advanced and flexible tool for chart segmenting trading sessions. Thanks to its extensive customization options and advanced visualization features, it allows traders to gain a clear representation of key market areas based on chosen time intervals. The indicator offers two range calculation modes: Body to Body: considers the range between the opening and closing price. Wick to Wick: considers the range between the session's low and high. Body To Body Wick to Wick Key Features 1. Session Configuration - Users can select the time range of the session of interest. - Option to choose the day of the week for the calculation. - Supports UTC timezone selection to correctly align data. 2. Customizable Visualization - Option to display session price lines. - Ability to show a central price line. - Extension of session lines beyond the specified duration. 3. Design Display Configuration - Three different background configurations to suit light and dark themes. - Two gradient modes for session coloring: - Centered: the color is evenly distributed. - Off-Centered: the gradient is asymmetrical. How It Works The indicator determines whether the current time falls within the selected session, creating a colored box that highlights the corresponding price range. Depending on user preferences, the indicator draws horizontal lines at the minimum and maximum price levels and, optionally, a central line. During the session: - The lowest and highest session prices are dynamically updated. - The range is divided into 10 bands to create a gradient effect. - A colored box is generated to visually highlight the chosen session. If the Extend Lines option is enabled, price lines continue even after the session ends, keeping the range visible for further analysis. This indicator is useful for traders who want to analyze price behavior in specific timeframes. It is particularly beneficial for strategies based on market sessions (e.g., London or New York open) or for identifying accumulation and distribution zones.

Color candle by time This indicator, written in Pine Script v5, allows you to highlight candles (using a user-selected color) that fall within a user-defined time range. Candles outside this range maintain their original appearance. How it Works and Key Benefits: - Time Interval Customization: By specifying start and end hours/minutes, you can emphasize only the desired market session. - Choice of Preferred Color: The body, wicks, and borders of the candles within the selected range are uniformly colored, based on the user’s chosen tone. - Enhanced Focus on Price Action: By focusing on the most relevant trading hours, your analysis becomes more streamlined and intuitive, without altering the rest of the session’s candle appearance. !! DO NOT FORGET TO SELECT THE OPTION: 'BRING TO FRONT' IN THE INDICATOR'S VISUAL ORDER !!

chrono_utils Library "chrono_utils" 📝 Description Collection of objects and common functions that are related to datetime windows session days and time ranges. The main purpose of this library is to handle time-related functionality and make it easy to reason about a future bar checking if it will be part of a predefined session and/or inside a datetime window. All existing session functionality I found in the documentation e.g. "not na(time(timeframe, session, timezone))" are not suitable for strategy scripts, since the execution of the orders is delayed by one bar, due to the script execution happening at the bar close. Moreover, a history operator with a negative value that looks forward is not allowed in any pinescript expression. So, a prediction for the next bar using the bars_back argument of "time()"" and "time_close()" was necessary. Thus, I created this library to overcome this small but very important limitation. In the meantime, I added useful functionality to handle session-based behavior. An interesting utility that emerged from this development is data anomaly detection where a comparison between the prediction and the actual value is happening. If those two values are different then a data inconsistency happens between the prediction bar and the actual bar (probably due to a holiday, half session day, a timezone change etc..) 🤔 How to Guide To use the functionality this library provides in your script you have to import it first! Copy the import statement of the latest release by pressing the copy button below and then paste it into your script. Give a short name to this library so you can refer to it later on. The import statement should look like this: import jason5480/chrono_utils/2 as chr To check if a future bar will be inside a window first of all you have to initialize a DateTimeWindow object. A code example is the following: var dateTimeWindow = chr.DateTimeWindow.new().init(fromDateTime = timestamp('01 Jan 2023 00:00'), toDateTime = timestamp('01 Jan 2024 00:00')) Then you have to "ask" the dateTimeWindow if the future bar defined by an offset (default is 1 that corresponds th the next bar), will be inside that window: // Filter bars outside of the datetime window bool dateFilterApproval = dateTimeWindow.is_bar_included() You can visualize the result by drawing the background of the bars that are outside the given window: bgcolor(color = dateFilterApproval ? na : color.new(color.fuchsia, 90), offset = 1, title = 'Datetime Window Filter') In the same way, you can "ask" the Session if the future bar defined by an offset it will be inside that session. First of all, you should initialize a Session object. A code example is the following: var sess = chr.Session.new().from_sess_string(sess = '0800-1700:23456', refTimezone = 'UTC') Then check if the given bar defined by the offset (default is 1 that corresponds th the next bar), will be inside the session like that: // Filter bars outside the sessions bool sessionFilterApproval = view.sess.is_bar_included() You can visualize the result by drawing the background of the bars that are outside the given session: bgcolor(color = sessionFilterApproval ? na : color.new(color.red, 90), offset = 1, title = 'Session Filter') In case you want to visualize multiple session ranges you can create a SessionView object like that: var view = SessionView.new().init(SessionDays.new().from_sess_string('2345'), array.from(SessionTimeRange.new().from_sess_string('0800-1600'), SessionTimeRange.new().from_sess_string('1300-2200')), array.from('London', 'New York'), array.from(color.blue, color.orange)) and then call the draw method of the SessionView object like that: view.draw() 🏋️‍♂️ Please refer to the "EXAMPLE DATETIME WINDOW FILTER" and "EXAMPLE SESSION FILTER" regions of the script for more advanced code examples of how to utilize the full potential of this library, including user input settings and advanced visualization! ⚠️ Caveats As I mentioned in the description there are some cases that the prediction of the next bar is not accurate. A wrong prediction will affect the outcome of the filtering. The main reasons this could happen are the following: Public holidays when the market is closed Half trading days usually before public holidays Change in the daylight saving time (DST) A data anomaly of the chart, where there are missing and/or inconsistent data. A bug in this library (Please report by PM sending the symbol, timeframe, and settings) Special thanks to @robbatt and @skinra for the constructive feedback 🏆. Without them, the exposed API of this library would be very lengthy and complicated to use. Thanks to them, now the user of this library will be able to get the most, with only a few lines of code!

Open Range This is a simple script that will look back a set number of candles at a specified time (example: Ny Open) and find the "High and Low " of the range/ market in the given look back period. It will then draw two lines and the range zone as a box. Breakout traders can use these levels to help find interesting areas for a breakout. Reversal traders can use these levels to help locate false breakouts. Simple type in your time zone Example: GMT-4 Set the time you want the indicator to draw the start line Example: 8:30am then set the candle look back Example: 60 Hope this script helps spark some ideas Happy trading

Highlighted your own time range This is just a tool to highlight the specific time range. Thanks.

Session Time Ranges Have you ever wondered if you are trading at the right time of the day or feel like all the good trades happen when you are sleeping? Well now you can check your theory :) This Script allows you to highlight a time range on your chart over a 24hour time period. For example 3AM to 6AM The script has two time variables, set your start time and end time based on a 24 hour clock and set the time zone offset variable to match your charts time zone. For example New York -4 (for utc just enter 0 for no offset ) This is a quick script I put together so hopefully it is error free enjoy :)
