Which named session window is live right now?

This tool checks the current Eastern time (or a time you enter) against the named windows used by The Trading Session Setups Pack and shows which one is active, plus which setups apply to it.

Does this tool detect gaps, spikes, or reversals for me?

No. It tracks time only. Setups marked Watch For still need their own stated price trigger to actually happen before they count as a live setup, this tool does not read your chart.

Trading Session Window Clock: Which Setup Window Is Live Right Now?

Check A Time

This clock runs on U.S. Eastern time, the same clock every setup in The Trading Session Setups Pack is built around, regardless of which time zone you trade from.

How this is calculated

Windows are drawn straight from the timing each setup in The Trading Session Setups Pack already states for itself: Opening Bell and First 15 Minutes both start at the 9:30am open, Mid-Morning is 10:00-11:30am, Midday runs 11:30am-3:00pm with Lunch Hour as a narrower 12:00-1:00pm window inside it, and Power Hour is 3:00-4:00pm.
Setups tagged In Play are the ones this window's own clock time is enough to put in play. Setups tagged Watch For also need their own stated trigger to actually happen first, a gap forming, an opening spike or flush starting to stall, before they're an actual setup and not just a name on the clock. This tool tracks time only, it does not read price, volume, or your chart.
Pre-Market Gap-and-Go, Pre-Market Gap-and-Crash, and Overnight Gap Fill Fade all execute at the regular-session open even though their setups are named for the session before it, so they show up as Watch For items in the Opening Bell window, not in Pre-Market or Overnight.
9:45am to 10:00am and 4:00am pre-market boundary lines are approximate. Use your own broker's actual extended-hours schedule for order routing decisions, this tool is a setup-timing reference, not a market-hours authority.
