Session Kill-Zone Highlighter is a visual indicator designed for trading platforms to display major forex market sessions and ICT Kill Zones directly on price charts. It highlights the Sydney (22:00–07:00 UTC), Tokyo (00:00–09:00 UTC), London (07:00–16:00 UTC), and New York (12:00–21:00 UTC) sessions with transparent colored rectangles. Additionally, it marks the Asian (02:00–04:00 UTC), London (08:00–10:00 UTC), and New York (13:00–15:00 UTC) Kill Zones, which represent periods of high liquidity.
The indicator supports all chart types, including Renko, Candlestick, Line, Tick, Range, Volume, Point & Figure, and Kagi. Users can customize session times, colors, and opacity levels (0.1 to 0.9), and enable optional session labels and vertical boundary lines. It automatically redraws daily and correctly handles overnight sessions such as Sydney.
This tool aids traders in identifying active market sessions and the most liquid trading hours at a glance, facilitating application of the ICT/SMC trading methodology. It works on any timeframe and instrument type, including Forex, Indices, Crypto, Commodities, and Stocks. All times are in UTC, and the indicator is applied directly to the chart panel.
