Session Lines V1.4 is a powerful and easy-to-use MetaTrader 4 indicator that automatically plots the major global trading sessions. Tokyo, London, and New York. Each session is clearly marked with a vertical line at open, and an optional colored box highlighting the full session range.

💡 How It Works

Session Lines V1.4 uses your broker’s server time and the UTC offset you provide to determine when each global session starts and ends. It then scans each candle in the session window to find the highest high and lowest low, draws a box to enclose that range, and display the pip distance between them. The high/low range can be setup to update on the live current bar, or when the bar closes, on M1 or M5 time frames this ensures accurate plotting without excess CPU usage.
