QX SessionBox ORB is an indicator for cTrader that visually overlays trading sessions and Opening Range Breakout (ORB) levels on price charts. It highlights the Asia, London, and New York sessions with customizable time ranges and colors, minimizing chart clutter. The indicator builds the Opening Range for a user-defined number of minutes and displays ORB High and Low lines as key intraday structure levels, with adjustable appearance settings.
A compact dashboard panel provides real-time session status, ORB readiness, bias, and Average True Range (ATR) information for quick context assessment. Optional features include an ORB range highlight box, closed-candle breakout confirmation signals, and an ATR filter to reduce false breakouts. An advanced mode supports overlapping sessions, allowing multiple session boxes to display when session times overlap, with configurable primary session control.
Designed for stability and efficiency, QX SessionBox ORB uses closed-candle logic to avoid intrabar flicker, throttled updates for lower CPU usage, and options to keep a set number of past sessions visible. Users set session UTC offsets manually and can customize parameters such as ORB minutes, signal modes, and update frequency. The tool serves as a visual decision-support aid for intraday breakout trading across various markets including Forex, indices, commodities, and cryptocurrencies.
