What it means
A session template controls the start and end of a session on the chart. That directly affects session highs, lows, opening ranges, pivots, and many other reference tools.
What to watch
A chart using regular trading hours can produce very different levels than one using overnight or extended hours. Template choice is not a cosmetic setting.
Where traders usually run into this
Session Template matters most when it starts affecting an actual chart read, indicator setting, or workflow choice rather than staying as an abstract definition.
- Session Levels Indicator keeps this term attached to a real indicator instead of leaving it as standalone jargon.
- Opening Range keeps this term attached to a real glossary instead of leaving it as standalone jargon.
- NinjaTrader Indicator Installation Guide keeps this term attached to a real guide instead of leaving it as standalone jargon.
