How It Works
1. Session Detection

3. Volume and Delta Metrics

• Tracks session volume, separating inflows and outflows based on price movements.
  
• Calculates delta to gauge net buying/selling activity.
  

4. Performance Metrics

• Tracks win/loss rates and percentage changes across sessions.
  
• Stores session metrics (volume, delta, win/loss) for up to 100 sessions.
  

5. Dynamic Visualization

• Continuously updates session levels and metrics in real time for actionable insights.
  

Usage Examples

2. Breakout Analysis: Monitor price action beyond session highs or lows to confirm breakouts.
   
3. Volume Trends: Compare session volumes to identify high-activity periods.
   
4. Delta Shifts: Assess delta changes to determine market sentiment at key levels.
   
5. Session Comparison: Identify which session drives significant activity using the performance table.
   
6. Multi-Session Strategies: Plan trades based on extended session levels to anticipate reactions at previously tested zones.

Important Notes

Known Weaknesses and Mitigation Strategies
1. Extreme Volatility

• Issue: During sudden, significant price movements (e.g., news-driven events), session levels and delta metrics may become less reliable as the market temporarily disregards historical patterns.
  
• Mitigation: Combine ZenAlgo - Sessions with volatility indicators like ATR (Average True Range) or a news alert system to adjust expectations during these periods.
  

2. Low Liquidity Periods

• Issue: During holidays or outside peak trading hours, session metrics may misrepresent actual market activity due to reduced participant involvement.
  
• Mitigation: Focus on sessions with higher activity (e.g., overlapping US and European sessions) to ensure more accurate insights.
  

3. Non-Standard Trading Hours

• Issue: Market-specific differences, such as extended hours or daylight saving adjustments, can misalign session boundaries.
  
• Mitigation: Verify session times align with your market and adjust settings accordingly.
  

4. Historical Data Dependencies

• Issue: Historical metrics rely on consistent session patterns; deviations (e.g., extended or shortened sessions) can impact trend accuracy.
  
• Mitigation: Regularly review and interpret historical data alongside real-time metrics to ensure alignment.
