Tradovate Feature Requests

Do we have an indicator similar to this “Trading Sessions” Indicator on tradingView? Checked the SuperSessions one and it fills the whole page with colors, didn’t really like it.

There isn’t a direct 1:1 of that TradingView “Trading Sessions” indicator in Tradovate, but you can get close without the whole chart being washed out. Two options that worked for me:

  1. Session Breaks / session dividers on the chart - just gives you vertical lines at the RTH/ETH boundaries instead of coloured blocks, much cleaner if you mainly want to see where the session starts.
    1. SuperSessions but turn the opacity/transparency way down on each session colour (and switch off the sessions you don’t care about, e.g. keep London + NY open only). Most of the “fills the page” complaint goes away once you’re only shading one or two windows at ~10-15% opacity.
  3. If you want it exactly like the screenshot, the practical route is a custom indicator drawing boxes on a time filter - the Custom Indicators section here has a couple of session-box scripts you can adapt rather than writing from scratch.

let me check what works… already trying option 3, though I’m so off with js
