Time Period Highlighter V2

8 juil.

This indicator highlights custom time periods on any intraday chart in TradingView, making it easier to visualize your preferred trading sessions.

You can define up to three separate time ranges per day, each with precise start and end times down to the minute (e.g., 08:30 - 12:15, 14:00 - 16:45, and 20:00 - 22:30). The indicator shades the background of your chart during these periods, helping you quickly identify when you're most active or when specific market conditions occur.

Key Features:

Set start and end times (hours and minutes) for up to three trading sessions.

Automatically highlights these periods across any intraday timeframe.

Uses 24-hour time format aligned with your TradingView chart timezone.

Perfect for day traders, scalpers, or anyone needing clear visual cues for their trading windows.

This tool is especially useful for reviewing trading strategies, backtesting, or ensuring you're focusing on high-probability market hours.

Tip: Double-check that your chart timezone matches your desired session times for accurate highlighting.

### ✅ **WORKAROUND for Higher Timeframes**
