Regime & Session Watch for Price Action Traders [RCOHelpline]

❗ This is NOT a signal indicator

This tool does not tell you where to buy or sell.
It tells you WHEN NOT TO TRADE and WHAT TYPE OF PRICE ACTION is allowed.

If you trade Gold using Price Action, SMC, ICT, or Scalping, this indicator acts as a context filter above your execution timeframe.

🧠 What This Indicator Solves

Most traders lose not because of bad entries —
but because they trade against context:

Trading inside mid-range

Chasing late trends

Trading during NY open stop-runs

Forcing scalps during compression or chaos

This indicator prevents exactly that.

⚙️ Dual Engine Logic (Professional Design)
🔹 Engine 1 — Regime / Veto Engine (User-Selectable TF)

You choose the context timeframe (15m / 30m / 60m).

The engine classifies the market into 6 regimes based on pure price action:

Regime Meaning
TREND (Healthy) Continuation only
TREND (Late) No chasing
RANGE (Flat) Mid-range forbidden
COMPRESSION Fake breakouts likely
CHAOS Stop-run / News behavior
TRANSITION Wait for structure

The panel updates only when that timeframe candle closes.

🔹 Engine 2 — Session Watch Windows (Real-Time)

This engine watches live session behavior, independent of candles.

Pre-configured windows for:

Tokyo

London

New York (H1 / H2)

Especially important for Gold:

NY First Hour = NO TRADE (data build / stop-run)

NY Second Hour = Reaction only (SMC / PA refinement)

The panel updates when a watch window starts or ends.

🚫 Trade Protection Logic

The indicator enforces professional restrictions:

❌ No trading in chaos

❌ No mid-range scalping

❌ No chasing late trends

❌ No trading during NY no-trade window

⚠️ Optional hard veto during any watch window

You always know:

“Is trading allowed right now — and if yes, HOW?”

📊 Panel Output (What You See)

The table shows:

Regime (higher timeframe context)

Current global session

Active watch window (if any)

Forbidden actions

What to wait for on lower TF

Final status: ALLOW / VETO

Clean. Minimal. Actionable.

🔔 Alert Meanings (Very Important)

Every alert has a clear semantic meaning:

Regime Alerts

TREND (Healthy) → Continuation only (no countertrend)

TREND (Late) → Pullback or sweep required

RANGE → Trade edges only, no mid-range

COMPRESSION → Wait sweep + displacement

CHAOS → No trading allowed

TRANSITION → Wait for BOS + retest

Session Alerts

TOKYO / LONDON Watch → Liquidity probes & traps

NY H1 → Observe only (stop-runs)

NY H2 → Reaction trades only

WATCH UPDATE → A critical time window started or ended

🎯 How to Use (Recommended)

Use this indicator on any chart timeframe

Execute trades on 1m / 45s / lower

Only trade setups that match the current context

Ignore signals when panel says VETO

This is how professional discretionary traders survive Gold.

⚠️ Disclaimer

This tool does not predict price.
It protects you from bad timing.

Use it as a context layer, not a signal generator.
