Introducing our new Session Alerts indicator, designed for traders who focus on intraday market activity. This Pine Script tool allows you to track the start and end of a user-defined session, without waiting for the final session bar to close. Instead of relying on traditional time markers, it counts the number of bars on a lower timeframe, offering more flexibility and precision for active traders.
Key Features
Custom Session Tracking: Set your preferred session hours (default: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM) to receive alerts at the start and end of your trading day. The indicator adapts to intraday charts and works in real-time.
Granular Timeframe Counter: The indicator counts the elapsed bars on a lower timeframe, which makes session tracking more responsive and avoids delays from waiting for the close of a session bar.
Visual Alerts: The indicator uses background color changes and shapes to signal key moments, such as the start and end of your session. These visual cues keep you informed without cluttering the chart.
Real-Time Alerts: Receive notifications when the session starts, ends, or hits your predefined target count of lower timeframe bars. This feature helps you manage trades with precision, ensuring you're always in sync with market movements.
User Customization: You can adjust the timeframe, set a bar target, and even enable a detailed counter display, providing full control over how the indicator works with your strategy.
How to Use
This indicator is designed for automated traders who would like to send a closing signal to flat positions before a session ends. To get started, apply the indicator to your chart and set your session time. Enable lower timeframe tracking for more granularity or simply rely on the session time range. Then create your alert choosing 'Session End' as your option.
