Line Levels & Structure
Daily pivots, previous session extremes, and opening ranges lay down the raw structural boundaries where the market traditionally reacts.
The Confluence Zones
Our engine groups the most densely populated price levels into actionable 'Hot Zones', eliminating the guesswork of choosing which line to trade.
You're probably running six indicators to do what this one does.
Previous day high/low from one indicator. Pivots from another. VWAP from a third. Opening range from a fourth. Globex levels from a fifth. Maybe a volume profile tool on top. Each with its own settings panel, its own color scheme, its own performance overhead, its own quirks around holidays and weekends.
And even after all that setup, you're still eyeballing where levels cluster. You're mentally stacking daily pivots against previous highs, VWAP bands, and opening range extremes, then deciding in real time whether that's a meaningful zone or just noise.
Key Levels Pro replaces that entire stack. Pivot points, previous period OHLC, VWAP, Volume Profile, session ranges, and Globex references feed into a confluence zone builder that does the clustering for you, scores each zone by strength, and renders it directly on your chart.
One indicator. One config panel. Levels you can trust.

Ten engines. One unified system.
We don't do "all-in-one" indicators that lag. Key Levels Pro is a collection of ten purpose-built engines running on a shared confluence data layer.
Previous Day, Week & Month OHLC
The foundation of any level-based trading approach. Yesterday's high, low, open, close. Previous week and month extremes. Calculated using NinjaTrader's higher-timeframe data series so you don't need to load months of 1-minute bars to get accurate weekly levels.
- 01Weekend and holiday safe - automatically resolves to the last valid trading day
- 02Uses HTF secondary series for week/month accuracyregardless of primary chart resolution
- 03Fallback chain: HTF series, BarsRequest, then primary-series accumulation
- 04Individual toggle for each level (PDH, PDL, PDO, PDC, PWH, PWL, PMH, PML)
See it in action
ES futures — price approaches a zone where five different levels converge (ASL, ORL, LDH, VAH, PVAL) and gets rejected twice. This is the kind of edge confluence scoring gives you.

Daily, Weekly & Monthly Pivot Points
Classic floor pivots are only the start. Key Levels Pro adds daily, weekly, and monthly pivot frameworks with selectable formulas, so you can trade standard pivot structure, tighter mean-reversion grids, or higher-timeframe reference ladders from the same indicator.
- 01Supports Classic, Woodie, Camarilla, DeMark, and Fibonacci pivot styles
- 02Independent enable/disable controls for Daily, Weekly, and Monthly pivot families
- 03Per-tier visibility controls for PP, R1/S1, R2/S2, R3/S3, and R4/S4 where supported
- 04Uses the same previous-day session logic as the Previous Day engine, so RTH vs ETH pivots stay consistent with your chart mode
Opening Range & Initial Balance
The opening range captures the first N minutes of the session — a widely used reference window in futures trading. The initial balance is the classic market profile concept: the first 60 minutes of trade, defining the range that sets the day's tone.
- 01Configurable OR duration in minutes
- 02Wick vs. close mode: use extremes or the candle close
- 03Automatic midpoint calculation for both OR and IB
- 04IB fixed at 60 minutes following market profile convention
Globex / Asia / London Levels
Overnight session highs and lows are among the most-watched reference points in futures trading. Key Levels Pro tracks Asia and London session windows separately with exchange-timezone-aware presets.
- 01Pre-configured Asia and London session windows
- 02User override capability for custom session start/end times
- 03Automatic timezone handling - no manual DST adjustments needed
- 04High and Low tracked independently per session window
Chart Example: Multiple Rejections at Previous Day High (PDH)
VWAP + Standard Deviation Bands
Session-anchored Volume Weighted Average Price with 1, 2, and 3 standard deviation bands. The most common reference line in intraday futures trading, now integrated alongside every other level on your chart.
- 01Session-based VWAP anchored to the trading day open
- 02Three standard deviation bands (SD1, SD2, SD3) above and below
- 03Feeds into the confluence engine for multi-level intersection detection
- 04Optional exclusion from confluence zones via dedicated toggle
Tick-Replay Accurate Volume Profile
Point of Control, Value Area High, and Value Area Low derived from actual tick-level volume data - not approximated from OHLC bars like most tools. When tick replay is enabled, every trade prints at its real price.
- 01Uses NinjaTrader tick replay for true volume-at-price accuracy
- 02Current session and previous session POC/VAH/VAL
- 03OHLC intrabar traversal fallback when tick data is unavailable
- 04Performance-guarded with recompute throttling
Granular Control: Session-Anchored VWAP & Standard Deviation Settings
Dynamic Confluence Engine
The heart of Key Levels Pro. It monitors all active engines and automatically highlights areas where multiple levels converge. It builds weighted zones that show you exactly where the most price friction exists.
- 01Configurable proximity threshold (Ticks/Points)
- 02Dynamic zone building with strength scoring
- 03Detailed tooltips showing contributors to each zone
- 04Gradient-based intensity rendering for visual clarity
Visual Intel: Overlapping Levels Building High-Probability Zones
Zone Logic: Customizable Proximity Thresholds & Scoring
Alert System
Never miss a level touch or zone entry again. The alert engine provides granular control over touch, cross, and proximity triggers for every level and confluence zone in the system.
- 01Touch, Cross, Proximity, and Zone-Entry alerts
- 02On-chart markers + NinjaTrader standard alert integration
- 03Per-engine toggle and custom sound assignments
- 04Intelligent cooldown system to prevent alert fatigue
RTH, ETH & Custom Sessions
Switch between Regular Trading Hours, Extended Trading Hours, and fully custom session definitions. All level engines recalculate cleanly on mode change with no stale artifacts left on the chart.
- 01RTH, ETH, and Custom modes with seamless switching
- 02Timezone source derived from NinjaTrader chart templates
- 03Custom mode accepts precise session start/end times
- 04Clean teardown and recalculation on every transition
NinjaTrader Strategy Automation
Stop manually tracking levels. Key Levels PRO exposes all 40+ levels as public plots and indices, allowing you to build fully automated trading systems in NinjaTrader 8 without custom code.
- 01Full Strategy Builder support: all levels available as selectable plots
- 02Coded NinjaScript ready: public Series<double> access for every engine
- 03Deterministic NaN handling: reliable value checks for entry logic
- 04Automation-ready for NinjaTrader Strategy, Strategy Builder, and third-party tools
Confluence Zones
This is the feature that doesn't exist in any other NinjaTrader indicator. When levels from different engines land near the same price, Key Levels Pro automatically clusters them into a zone, scores it by strength, and renders a gradient visualization directly on your chart.
Set one distance. Done.
Define a single merge distance in ticks. Levels within that range cluster into a zone automatically. Zone color and opacity reflect member count — 2 levels is weak, 3 is medium, 4+ is strong. No configuration required.
Choose how zones get ranked.
Pick a ranking mode, set minimum members, cap visible zones, and control overlap suppression. 7 settings total — enough to tune for your market and timeframe without getting lost in percentages.
Advanced ranking modes
One dropdown replaces four configurable scoring weights. Pick what matters most to you.
Member Count
Rank purely by how many levels land in the zone. Simple and effective for most setups.
Source Diversity
Zones where OHLC, VWAP, and Volume Profile all agree score higher than three pivots at the same price.
Higher Timeframes
Monthly and weekly levels pull significantly more weight. Best for swing traders.
Balanced
Equal consideration of count, source diversity, and timeframe importance. The default.
Advanced confluence — 7 settings, one dropdown for ranking
On the chart: Zones render as gradient-filled boxes anchored from the current session start with configurable forward projection. Each zone shows its strength score and the member levels that form it. When a level is absorbed into a zone, its individual line is hidden to reduce clutter. Individual levels that don't cluster with anything remain as standard reference lines.

Frequently asked questions
Key Levels Pro is built exclusively for NinjaTrader 8 on Windows. NinjaTrader 7 is not supported.
Tick replay is recommended for maximum volume profile accuracy, but not required. When tick data isn't available, the indicator falls back to an OHLC intrabar traversal method that still produces reliable POC/VAH/VAL values.
Your license key activates on up to 2 machines simultaneously. If you need to move an activation to a new machine, email [email protected] and we'll reset it for you.
No. Your lifetime license includes all future updates. When alerts and the on-chart volume profile histogram ship, they'll be available to you at no additional cost.
Yes. All level engines work across any chart type NinjaTrader supports. The confluence engine includes price normalization logic that handles the different tick increments across chart types.
The indicator includes an offline grace period. If the license server is temporarily unreachable, your indicator continues working normally using its cached license state. It won't lock you out during a server outage.
Yes. You can mix and match previous period OHLC, daily/weekly/monthly pivots, VWAP bands, Opening Range, Initial Balance, Globex levels, and Volume Profile references. For example, you can keep PDH/PDL and daily pivots on, hide weekly/monthly pivots, and only show VWAP through SD1. Colors, styles, and visibility are all configurable through the NinjaTrader properties panel.
The indicator includes a trading day resolver that correctly handles weekends, market holidays, and shortened sessions. Previous day levels on a Monday correctly reference Friday. Previous week levels account for holiday-shortened weeks. No manual adjustment needed.
Any market available in NinjaTrader 8. It's most commonly used on ES, NQ, YM, RTY, CL, and GC futures, but it works on forex pairs and equities too. The indicator automatically adapts to each instrument's tick size and session times.
Yes — tick charts, 1-minute through monthly, plus Range, Renko, and Heikin-Ashi. The indicator uses 1-minute data internally for time-based calculations like Opening Range and Initial Balance, so those work correctly regardless of your chart type.
The indicator stops functioning, but your settings are preserved. Purchase a license and reactivate — everything picks up right where you left it. No data is lost.
No. Key Levels PRO is a one-time purchase. You get a permanent license and free updates forever. No renewal fees, no recurring charges.
Yes. Key Levels PRO runs independently with no known conflicts. Common combos include footprint/order flow charts, CVD, moving averages, and momentum oscillators like RSI. It works alongside anything NinjaTrader supports.
Opening Range captures the first 30 minutes (configurable) — used for breakout levels. Initial Balance covers the first 60 minutes and defines the range that sets the day's directional tone. Both are calculated automatically with midpoints included.
We recommend NinjaTrader 8 for its professional-grade execution and advanced order management. You can learn more and get started on our [Trading Platform](/ninjatrader) page.
Stop stacking indicators.
Key Levels Pro gives you pivots, previous period structure, session ranges, VWAP, profile references, and actionable confluence zones in a single indicator with a single performance footprint.
