CandelaCharts - Quadratic Killzones

2 015
📝 Overview

The Quadratic Killzones indicator is a specialized tool for visualizing key trading sessions and their price ranges divided into quadrants.

These session ranges are significant because they help traders identify potential support and resistance zones based on session highs and lows. The indicator tracks multiple sessions (Asia, London Open, NY AM, NY Lunch, NY PM) and displays their price ranges with quadrant levels (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%).

  • Session Visualization: Boxes and lines highlight trading session ranges directly on the chart.
  • Quadrant Levels: Price ranges are divided into quadrants for precise level identification.
  • Level Invalidation: Lines extend until price invalidates the level, providing dynamic support/resistance tracking.


Session highs and lows serve as key reference points for intraday traders. The quadrant divisions help identify premium (above 50%) and discount (below 50%) zones within each session's range.

📦 Features

Key features of the indicator include:
  • Multi-Session Support: Track up to 6 different sessions (Asia, London Open, NY AM, NY Lunch, NY PM, Custom).
  • Quadrant Division: Session ranges divided into 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% levels.
  • Level Invalidation: Lines automatically terminate when price invalidates the level.
  • Session Boxes: Visual boxes showing the session range with optional session name labels.
  • Customizable Styling: Configurable colors, line styles, and display options per session.
  • Time Dividers: Optional vertical dividers at specified timeframe intervals.

🌟 Benefits

Why use Quadratic Killzones over standard session indicators?
  • Granularity: The quadratic division (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) allows you to identify "Premium" and "Discount" pricing within a specific session's range, offering more precision than simple High/Low markers.
  • Clean Charts: The "Level Invalidation" feature automatically stops drawing lines once price breaks them. This keeps your chart clean and focused only on active, defended levels.
  • Time Alignment: With the "New York Midnight" setting, you ensure your session data is aligned with the true institutional trading day, regardless of your broker's server time.
  • Structure Identification: Quickly spot when a session range is being respected (ranging/consolidation) or broken (expansion/trend).
