RTH vs ETH

RTH vs ETH is the definitive clean build for trading the RTH vs ETH split. On intraday charts it shades the extended-hours session, plots the developing ETH high and low and projects the completed overnight range across the day session, and carries the prior RTH close forward as a dotted gap reference. Both US presets pin RTH to the 09:30-16:00 New York cash session, and a dashboard compares the two sessions statistically over a rolling lookback.

How to Trade the RTH vs ETH?

• Open vs ETH range: an RTH open above the overnight high or below the overnight low starts the day out of balance. Alerts flag both cases, plus gap up and gap down against the prior close.
• ETH High/Low tests: the projected overnight extremes are the first references the day session tends to revisit; alerts fire the first time each is touched.
• Gap status: price trading back to the dotted prior RTH close fills the opening gap; the dashboard shows today's gap, its status, and the historical fill rate.

The dashboard also splits average range, volume share, and where the combined day's extremes tend to print, the participation lens of the time & seasonality family.
