Essa's Indicator V3Essa's Indicator V3 – Advanced Market Structure & Session Levels
A comprehensive TradingView tool designed for market structure analysis, session tracking, and trend identification. It combines session high/low plotting, adaptive exponential moving averages (EMAs), ZigZag patterns, fractals, and higher high/lower low (HH/LL) recognition. This indicator provides insights into price action, volatility, and breakout potential.
Core Features
1. Adaptive Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
Fast EMA (Blue Line, default: 9-period EMA) – Identifies short-term market trends.
Slow EMA (Red Line, default: 21-period EMA) – Highlights longer-term trend direction.
Volatility-Adjusted EMA Calculation – Uses ATR (Average True Range) to dynamically adjust smoothing, making the EMAs more responsive to market conditions.
EMAs can be toggled on or off in the settings.
2. Trading Session Highs and Lows
Tracks and plots the highs and lows of the three major trading sessions:
London Session (Red lines, 08:00-17:00 LDN / 03:00-12:00 NY)
New York Session (Blue lines, 12:00-21:00 LDN / 07:00-16:00 NY)
Asia Session (Yellow lines, 22:00-08:00 LDN / 18:00-03:00 NY)
Highs and lows for each session are marked, with breakouts potentially signaling key trading opportunities.
Background shading distinguishes active session times:
London Session – Light red background.
New York Session – Light blue background.
Asia Session – Light yellow background.
3. Breakout Alerts
Alerts notify traders when price crosses key session highs or lows:
Break Above Session Highs – Signals potential bullish momentum.
Break Below Session Lows – Indicates possible bearish movement.
Customizable alert settings allow users to focus on specific sessions.
4. ZigZag Market Structure Detection
Highlights significant price swings by identifying peaks and troughs.
Helps visualize trend direction and potential reversals.
Configurable ZigZag length for adjusting sensitivity to price movements.
5. Higher Highs (HH), Lower Lows (LL), Higher Lows (HL), and Lower Highs (LH) Identification
Detects and labels key market structure points:
Higher Highs (HH) and Higher Lows (HL) – Indicate an uptrend.
Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL) – Suggest a downtrend.
Provides insights into trend continuation or possible reversals.
6. Fractal Markers
Identifies potential market turning points using fractal-based detection:
Up Fractals (Green Triangles above price) – Indicate potential upward reversals.
Down Fractals (Red Triangles below price) – Signal potential downward reversals.
Useful as a secondary confirmation tool for trade setups.
7. Custom Timezone Options
Allows switching between London (LDN) and New York (NY) timezones to align session markers with the trader’s location.
Ensures session high/low levels are accurately displayed for forex, crypto, and other markets.
Use Cases
Day traders and scalpers can track session high/low breakouts and real-time market structure shifts.
Swing traders can identify trend continuation or reversal opportunities.
Volatility-based traders benefit from adaptive EMAs that dynamically adjust to market conditions.
Price action traders can use market structure indicators to enhance entry and exit strategies.
Essa’s Indicator V3 is a multi-functional tool designed for traders who require a structured approach to technical analysis, with configurable session tracking, adaptive moving averages, and market structure insights.
LOWS
highs&lowsone of my first strategy: highs&lows
This strategy takes the highest high and the lowest low of a specified timeframe and specified bar count.
It will then takes the average between these two extremes to create a center line.
This creates a range of high middle and low.
Then the strategy takes the current market movement
which is the direct average(no specified timeframe and specified bar count) of the current high and low.
Using this "current market movement" within the range of high middle and low it determins when to buy and then sell the asset.
*********note***************
-this strategy is (bullish)
-works good with most futures assets that have volatility/ decent movement
(might add more details if I forget any)

52 Week High/Low Tracking TableThis Indicator helps the User to Quickly view Current Closing Price Compared to the Mentioned Period High and Low.
"Bars Back" indicate the period you need to look back. In case of Daily charts 260 Bars Back usually indicate 52 Weeks/1 year. This is set a default. But you can change it as well.
The Indicator will show the data for below:-
1) High - Highest Close price for the Mentioned Period
2) % from High - The Percentage difference between the Current Close Price Vs Highest Close price for the Mentioned Period. (-) indicate that the current close price is lesser then then High Price.
3) Low - Lowest Close price for the Mentioned Period
4) % from Low - The Percentage difference between the Current Close Price Vs Highest Close price for the Mentioned Period. (-) indicate that the current close price is lesser then then High Price.
You can add this indicator to Quickly Scan multiple stocks to see were they stand.
Essa's Indicator 2.0Essa's Indicator V2: Beginner's Guide
This custom TradingView indicator has been designed to help you identify key trading opportunities based on session highs/lows, volatility, and moving averages. Below is a breakdown of the main features:
1. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
Fast EMA (Blue Line): Tracks the short-term market trend (default: 9-period EMA).
Slow EMA (Red Line): Tracks the longer-term market trend (default: 21-period EMA).
You can turn on/off the EMAs using the "Show EMAs" option in the settings.
EMAs help smooth out price action and give a clearer picture of trends. A crossover of the fast EMA above the slow EMA can signal an upward trend, while the reverse may indicate a downward trend.
2. Session Highs and Lows
The indicator tracks price highs and lows for three major trading sessions:
London Session (Red): Highlighted in red. Active between 08:00 and 17:00 (LDN timezone) or 03:00 and 12:00 (NY timezone).
New York Session (Blue): Highlighted in blue. Active between 12:00 and 21:00 (LDN timezone) or 07:00 and 16:00 (NY timezone).
Asia Session (Yellow): Highlighted in yellow. Active between 22:00 and 08:00 (LDN timezone) or 18:00 and 03:00 (NY timezone).
Highs and lows for each session are plotted on the chart as lines. Breakouts from these levels can signal important trading opportunities:
London High/Low: Red lines.
New York High/Low: Blue lines.
Asia High/Low: Yellow lines.
The background color also changes depending on the active session:
London: Light red background.
New York: Light blue background.
Asia: Light yellow background.
3. Breakout Alerts
You can set alerts when the price breaks above or below session highs/lows:
Break Above London High: Alert triggered when the price crosses the London session high.
Break Below London Low: Alert triggered when the price falls below the London session low.
Similar alerts exist for the New York and Asia sessions as well.
4. Volatility-Adjusted EMA
The EMAs in this indicator are adjusted based on volatility (ATR - Average True Range). This allows the EMAs to respond to market conditions more dynamically, giving you more accurate trend readings in volatile markets.
5. ZigZag Feature (Optional)
You can enable the ZigZag feature to help visualize the price action's highs and lows:
ZigZag Lines: Highlight major peaks and troughs in price movements, helping you spot trends more easily.
This is helpful for identifying reversals or trend continuations.
6. Fractal Markers
This indicator uses fractals to mark potential turning points in the market:
Green Triangles (Above the Price): Indicate up fractals (potential reversal points where the price could move upwards).
Red Triangles (Below the Price): Indicate down fractals (potential reversal points where the price could move downwards).
Fractals can be a helpful confirmation tool when identifying entry and exit points.
7. Custom Timezone Options
You can choose between London (LDN) and New York (NY) timezones in the settings to adapt the session times to your trading location. This ensures the session high/low markers are displayed correctly for your trading region.
By default, the New York (NY) timezone is enabled for FXCM charts in the UK.
For BTC charts, you will need to switch to the appropriate time zone manually.

MTF High and Low FractionsMTF High and Low Fractions
Description
An experimental script that prints 1/3, 1/4 and 1/8 levels of the previous timeframe's high and low to the current timeframe. The idea is quite simple. It mirrors the the previous high and low with user selected levels. The default setting is the previous daily high and low but can be customized on user discretion.
New levels are printed after the close of the previous timeframe and open of the new timeframe (user's timeframe setting).
How To Use
Levels should not be used blindly. Levels can be used as confluence when aligned with high probability supply and demand zones, support, resistance, order blocks, and so on.

MTF Market Structure Highs and LowsThe indicator marks the last fractal highs and lows (W,D,4H and 1H options) to help determine current market structure. The script was created to help with directional bias but also as a MTF visual aid for stop hunts/liquidity raids.
Liquidity areas are where we assume trader's stop losses would be when buying or selling. Liquidity lies above and below swing points and institutions need liquidity to fill large orders.
Monitor price action as it hits these areas for a potential reversal trade.
Michigandolf's 30min Opening RangeThis script plots the 30min Opening Range as well as the previous day's high & low.
Description:
Blue Line = Top of the 30min Opening Range for the session
Pink Line = Bottom of the 30min Opening Range for the session
White Line = Mid-Point of the 30min Opening Range for the session
White Transparent Area = The full range of the 30min Opening Range
Green Line = Yesterday's High for the session
Red Line = Yesterday's Low for the session
Use:
The Opening Range will continue to expand until the first 30minutes of trading has passed, at which point the range will lock in place for the remainder of the trading session. Many traders use these important levels to gauge trade entries and exits (e.g. Mark Fisher's ACD strategy).
This script does not work currently work for futures (e.g. ES, NQ, RTY) due to the session start time. Will configure for futures trading in a future update.
Drawdown over Window (in percentage)Unlike other scripts, which compare against the all time high, this allows you to specify the window over which the high should be searched.
If you want to compare against the all time high, just choose a long enough window.
Swing Failure Pattern Inquisitor SFP Inquisitor
v0.2a
coded by Bogdan Vaida
Code for Swing High, Swing Low and Swing Failure Pattern.
Note that we're still in the alpha version, bugs may appear.
Note that the number you set in your Swing History variable
will also be the minimum delay you see until the apples appear.
This is because we're checking the forward "history" too.
The SFP will only check for these conditions:
- high above Swing History high and close below it
- low below Swing History high and close above it
In some cases you may see an apple before the SFP that "doesn't fit"
with the SFP conditions. That's because that apple was drawn later and
the SFP actually appeared because of the previous apple .
20 candles later.
Legend:
🍏 - swing high
🍎 - swing low
🧺 - candle where the last swing was driven from
🍌 - swing failure pattern
🍎🍌 - hungry scenario: swing low but also a SFP compared to the last swing
High_Low level plots for yesterday, pre market , regular, and AHthis study will plot yesterdays, high and low price, pre market's high and low price, regular day's high and low price and post markets high and low price.

Hope TV (pinescript) will get color inputs for line or a type color so we can
easily create inputs for colors for lines. Now its static. If someone knows
another way, pls let me know, i'll integrate it

Generalized SSL by Vts// Generalized SSL:
// This is the very first time the SSL indicator, whose acronym I ignore, is on Tradingview.
// It is based on moving averages of the highs and lows.
// Similar channel indicators can be found, whereas
// this one implements the persistency inside the channel, which is rather tricky.
// The green line is the base line which decides entries and exits, possibly with trailing stops.
// With respect to the original version, here one can play with different moving averages.
// The default settings are (10,SMA)

High Low YearlySorry for the mess above. Not sure how to remove it. It was not what I was looking to post. I added the the clean chart below.
This was requested by "N". It displays the current yearly highs and lows along with the previous years highs and lows. Just a nice way to see the support resistance in all time frames.
