Session Kill Zone Volume Map [StrixEDGE]

Session Kill Zone Volume Map [StrixEDGE]
A session-aware overlay that maps institutional kill zones — London, New York, and Asia — directly onto your chart with volume-weighted session boxes, Opening Range Breakout levels, and a unified analytics dashboard. Built to give intraday traders immediate visual context on where volume clusters, how sessions develop relative to their historical norms, and when a confirmed breakout is underway.
🔍 What This Indicator Does
The indicator automatically detects the three major forex/futures sessions based on UTC time and draws color-coded session boxes whose fill intensity scales dynamically with real-time volume. High-volume sessions appear visually heavier; low-volume sessions fade into the background. This gives you an instant read on whether today's session is running hotter or cooler than average — without checking a single number.
On top of each session, it tracks the Opening Range (first 15, 30, or 60 minutes) and plots ORB-High and ORB-Low levels as dashed reference lines extending through the session. When price breaks an ORB level with volume confirmation, a directional marker (▲ or ▼) prints on the chart and an alert fires.

A single unified dashboard panel consolidates everything: live session volume, percentage distribution with a visual bar, historical average range, ORB win rate, and session sample count — all in one clean table.
⚡ Key Features
Session Auto-Detection
London (08:00–17:00 UTC)
New York (13:00–22:00 UTC)
Asia (00:00–09:00 UTC)
are detected automatically. All session start and end times are fully customizable down to the minute, so you can adjust for DST shifts or align to your broker's server time.
Volume-Weighted Session Boxes
Each session box fills with the session's assigned color at a transparency that adjusts in real time based on cumulative volume relative to the historical session average. A session running at 2× its normal volume will render noticeably more vivid than one at 0.5×. The base transparency is user-controlled.
Opening Range Breakout (ORB) Levels
The indicator captures the high and low of the first N minutes of each session (configurable: 15 / 30 / 60 min) and draws them as horizontal reference lines. These extend through the rest of the session, serving as the breakout thresholds traders watch for directional continuation.
Volume-Confirmed Breakout Signals
When price closes beyond an ORB level and the breakout bar's volume exceeds the 20-period SMA × a user-defined multiplier (default 1.5×), a directional triangle prints on the chart. No volume confirmation = no signal. This filters out low-conviction breaks.
Unified Session Dashboard
A single professional table displays all session data at a glance:
- Live session volume (absolute + percentage share)
- Volume distribution bar per session
- Historical average session range over your chosen lookback
- ORB win rate (percentage of confirmed breakouts that held direction through session close)
- Session sample count
Table position, text size, and visibility are all input-controlled.
Session High/Low Break Alerts
Separate alert conditions fire when price crosses the previous session's high or low with volume confirmation, giving you an additional layer of inter-session breakout detection.
9 Alert Conditions
Individual bull/bear ORB break alerts per session, a unified "any ORB break" alert, and session high/low break alerts — all configurable in TradingView's alert manager.
⚙️ Inputs & Settings
| Group | Setting | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Session Times | Start/End Hour & Minute | Full control over each session's UTC boundaries |
| ORB Settings | Period (15/30/60 min) | Opening range duration |
| ORB Settings | Line Style / Width | Visual style of ORB levels |
| Display | Show/Hide Sessions | Toggle individual session boxes |
| Display | Base Box Transparency | Controls how transparent session boxes are at normal volume |
| Display | Dashboard Position | Table corner placement |
| Display | Dashboard Text Size | Tiny / Small / Normal / Large |
| Display | Stats Lookback | Number of past sessions for avg range and ORB win rate |
| Alerts | Volume Confirm Multiplier | How far above SMA(20) breakout volume must be |
| Colors | Session & Breakout Colors | Full color customization per session and direction |
📖 How To Use
Session Context
Load on a 5m–1H chart. The session boxes immediately frame where London, New York, and Asia operated. The fill intensity tells you which session carried the most conviction — use that to weight your analysis toward the active kill zone.
ORB Strategy
After the opening range completes, the ORB-H and ORB-L lines become your breakout thresholds. A volume-confirmed break (▲/▼ marker) signals directional intent. Traders often look for price to retest the broken ORB level as support/resistance before committing to a continuation trade.
▲
▼
Dashboard Read
Check the Vol % column to see which session is dominating flow. The ORB WR column tells you how reliable ORB breakouts have been historically for each session on the current instrument — if London shows 85% and Asia shows 50%, that's actionable edge for session selection.
Alerts
Set up any of the 9 alert conditions to get notified without watching the chart. Combine the unified "Any ORB Break" alert with a mobile notification for hands-free monitoring.

📋 Notes
- Designed for intraday timeframes (15m and below recommended for ORB accuracy). A warning displays if loaded on Daily or higher.
- During the London/NY overlap window (13:00–17:00 UTC by default), volume is attributed to both sessions. The percentage distribution shows relative contribution, not mutually exclusive slices.
- ORB win rate is a binary metric: did price close beyond the broken ORB level at session end? It does not measure how far price traveled.
- The volume gradient uses transparency modulation, not a multi-stop color gradient, due to Pine Script rendering constraints.
- Works on any instrument with volume data (forex via tick volume, futures, crypto, equities).
