Session Breaks — Plots a vertical line at the end of each trading day, giving you a clean visual separation between sessions.
Weekly Open Line — Marks the opening price of the week. Often called the Sunday Open because when markets open, it is still Sunday in the US. A key reference level many traders use throughout the week.
Session Coloring — Highlights the Asian, London, and New York sessions directly on your chart. Each session takes out the highs or lows of the previous one before pulling back or reversing — having those boundaries visible is essential.
