Session Opening

The Opening Range Strategy

The opening minutes of a major financial center (like London or New York) set the tone for the entire session. The Initial Balance or Opening Range is often used by traders to define the day's bias.

This tool automatically highlights this critical period and draws the key reference levels for you.

Key Levels

We visualize the "Battlefield" of the opening session:

• Session High: The highest price reached during the opening minutes.

  • Usage: Often acts as intraday resistance. A clean break above this can signal a "Trend Day" upwards.

• Session Low: The lowest price reached during the opening minutes.

  • Usage: Often acts as intraday support. A clean break below this can signal a "Trend Day" downwards.

• Session Mid: The average price of the opening range.

  • Usage: Acts as a "Fair Value" reference. If price is above, bulls are in control. If below, bears are in control.
