Overview
This indicator tracks and displays the highest high and lowest low of the three major trading sessions (Asia, London, and New York). It draws horizontal lines on the chart to represent these key price levels.

Unlike basic session range indicators, this script ensures that the horizontal lines start exactly at the candle where the high or low wick occurred, and extend a user-defined number of bars into the future.

These levels often act as significant support and resistance zones, making this indicator useful for intraday and short-term swing traders.

Trading Sessions Tracked
The script defines the following trading sessions using the Europe/Zurich timezone:

Asia: 00:00 – 09:00

London: 09:00 – 14:30

New York: 15:30 – 23:00

Each session is processed independently. The indicator finds the high and low of each session and displays the result as a horizontal line.

Technical Details
The indicator uses time() with session strings and a timezone to determine whether the current bar belongs to a session.

When a session begins, it initializes the high, low, and their corresponding bar_index.

During the session, it updates the high and low if a new wick surpasses the previous extremes, and saves the bar_index of that bar.

At the end of the session, it draws a horizontal line starting at the exact bar_index where the high or low occurred, and extends it rightward by the number of bars set in the input.

Each new session removes the previous session’s lines to keep the chart clean.

Use Cases
Identifying key intraday support and resistance zones

Anticipating breakouts or rejections at previous session highs/lows

Combining with other indicators (e.g., volume, order flow, VWAP) for confluence

Planning entries, exits, or stop placements based on session ranges

Customization Ideas (Optional Enhancements)
Add session labels (e.g., "London High") at the line start or end

Make line color change dynamically if price breaks through it

Support plotting multiple previous sessions, not just the last one

Add alerts when price touches or breaks a session high or low
