Key terms for this guide
These glossary pages cover the ideas and platform language most likely to matter as you work through this guide.
Session tools are strongest when you trade intraday
Session level indicators are built around the current trading day and the session that came before it. They help intraday traders stay oriented without forcing a broader swing-analysis workflow.
Pick the session tool by reference type
A prior-session level page, a session VWAP, and an opening-range tool all belong to the same family, but they answer slightly different questions about where today is trading.
Use the smallest session map that keeps you honest
It is usually better to show a few reliable session references than to crowd the chart with every derived level that could possibly matter.
Recommended next step
Try the one you are leaning toward
At some point the comparison has done its job. If one option is already making more sense, it is better to test it than keep rereading the same pros and cons.
