2. **Percentage Metrics**
* % of ADR / ATR covered by the **current H4 bar**.
* ADR / ATR expressed as a percentage of the **current price**.
* % of ADR already reached for the **current day**.
* % of Daily ATR vs current day’s True Range.
3. **Dynamic Chart Lines**

## **How to Use**
### **1. Adding the Indicator**
* Copy and paste the Pine Script into TradingView’s Pine Editor.
* Click **“Add to chart”**.
* Make sure your chart supports the higher timeframes you choose (e.g., H4 and Daily).
### **2. Setting Your Session**
* **Session Start Hour** & **End Hour** → Defines the intraday session to measure ADR/ATR (default: 06:00–13:00).
* **Session Timezone** → Pick “Chart” or a major financial center (e.g., New York, London, Tokyo).
### **3. Choosing Smoothing Methods**
* For each ADR/ATR (H4 and Daily), choose:
* SMA (Simple)
* EMA (Exponential)
* RMA (Wilder’s smoothing)
* WMA (Weighted)
### **4. Adjusting Chart Display**
* **Show H4 Lines** → Displays session open and ADR High/Low for the current H4 session.
* **Show Daily Lines** → Displays daily open and ADR High/Low.
* Customize line colors and widths.
### **5. Reading the Table**
* **H4 Section**
* ADR / ATR values for the selected session.
* % of ADR/ATR covered by the **current H4 bar**.
* ADR/ATR as % of the current price.
* **Daily Section**
* ADR / ATR for the daily timeframe.
* % of ADR already covered by today’s range.
* ADR/ATR as % of price.
### **6. Pro Tips**
* Use **H4 ADR %** to gauge intraday exhaustion — if current range is near 100%, market may slow or reverse.
* Use **Daily ADR %** for swing trade context — if a day has moved beyond its ADR, expect lower continuation probability.
* Combine with support/resistance to identify high-probability reversal zones.
