Power Hour Trendlines

Power Hour Trendlines applies trendline analysis to a deliberately filtered dataset: only the closes printed during the final hour of the regular session, 3:00–4:00 p.m. New York time by default. The premise is a classic time-of-day tendency: prices formed while institutions rebalance into the close carry more informational value than quiet-hours noise. A middle line regresses every Power Hour close in memory; the upper line is fitted to the closes sitting above that regression, the lower line to those below.

How to Trade the Power Hour Trendlines?

• Slope: rising lines say uptrend, falling lines say downtrend, flat says the market is ranging, a clean directional filter for intraday work.
• Channel width: a wide gap between upper and lower lines signals aggressive swings; a narrow gap signals controlled price behavior, context for risk management and sizing.
• Dynamic support and resistance: the lines mark where late-session participants accepted or rejected price; watch behavior on each retest for reactions, breakouts, or reversals.
• Sessions Memory as horizon: the same market can trend over 10–40 sessions yet look range-bound over 70. Vary the lookback to match the horizon your trade lives on.

Because the Power Hour is the session's final hour, intraday data is required: timeframes above 1 hour aren't supported and trigger a warning. Stocks, indices, forex, crypto, and futures all work as long as the instrument has a defined session.
