AMT Session Tracker
Running session high, low, and midpoint for configurable sessions
Tracks and displays the running high, low, and midpoint for five independently configurable trading sessions: US RTH, Overnight, London, Asian, and Initial Balance. All levels are drawn as dashed lines with color-coded identification.
The Concept
Different trading sessions develop their own ranges. The US RTH session defines the domestic range, London defines the European range, and the Overnight session captures globex activity. The high and low of each session act as natural support and resistance levels. Session Tracker automatically computes these levels in real-time so you can see where each session's boundaries are developing.
How to Read It
Each session shows three levels: High, Low, and Mid.
- Session High/Low define the range for that session — breakouts signal range extension
- Session Mid is the midpoint of the range — price above mid leans bullish for that session, below leans bearish
- Initial Balance (first hour) is especially important — IB range extension is a key AMT concept
- Overnight High/Low are frequently tested during the US open
Practical Tips
All session times are fully configurable — adjust them to match your exchange and timezone. The default times are set for US Eastern CME futures. Enable only the sessions you actively reference to keep the chart clean. Each session uses a distinct color: white for US RTH, purple for Overnight, gold for London, cyan for Asian, orange for Initial Balance.
