Sessions KillZones Library [TradingFinder]

🔵Introduction

"The Forex Trading Sessions" highlight the active periods across different markets where significant trading volume and influence on the forex market are evident. The primary trading sessions globally include the "Asian Session," "London Session," and "New York Session."

A "Kill Zone" refers to a segment within a session characterized by high trading volume and notably sharper price movements. Consequently, there's a higher probability of encountering price action setups within these zones. Traders capitalize on this phenomenon in pursuit of more successful trading outcomes.

If you aim to integrate sessions or kill zones into your indicators or strategies, utilizing this library can amplify the precision and efficiency of your Python script development.
