I struggle to find a solid solution how to show all the 3 sessions Asia/London/US printing the high/lows of each session as a line extended to right side of chart until broken by candles.

The only way so far I found is to do this with volume per price study but it makes the chart sluggish (I dont need the volume profile).

Is there a better way to get the high/low per each of the 3 sessions and line extended to right until break?

I think that maybe you can code an indicator on ACSIL with Chatgpt or Claude Sonnet.

Define the hours of each session to the IA, be very specific about the trading hours sessions, and tell them to draw a line till future intersection for the high or the low of the each session. And give them a color for each one.

For example:

Asia session trading hours: From A to B.
London session trading hours: From B to C.
New York Session trading hours: From C to D.

then define A, B, C ,D (the trading hours sessions)

Then tell the IA to highlight the high and the low for the A to B session, the B C and the C D till future intersection with another candle.

1. Add the High/Low for Time Period study, set the Start Time and End Time for one of the sessions, and Hide the study.

2. Add the Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study,
- Set 'Output When Condition True' to "Study Subgraph Reference'
- Set 'Study Subgraph Reference Value When True' to ID1.SG1, where ID1 is the High/Low...study.
- Set 'Draw Extension Lines at Color Bar Value' to 'Extend to Future Intersection'
- Set the Draw Style of SG1 to Text, and leave the Text to Draw field blank.
- Set the Draw Style of SG2 to Dash, and choose the color.
- Enter =1 on the Alert tab.
(This will create the extension lines for the High)

3. Duplicate the above Color Bar study.
- Set 'Study Subgraph Reference Value When True' to ID1.SG2, where ID1 is the High/Low...study.
(This will create the extension lines for the Low)

Repeat steps 1,2,3 for the other two sessions.
