CVD with Moving Average (Trend Colors) [SYNC & TRADE]Yesterday I wrote a simple and easy code for the indicator "Cumulative Delta Volume with a moving average" using AI.
Introduction:
Delta is the difference between buys and sells. If there are more purchases, the delta is positive, if there are more sales, the delta is negative. We look at each candle separately on a particular time frame, which does not give us an overall picture over time.
Cumulative volume delta is in many ways an extension of volume delta, but it covers longer periods of time and provides different trading signals. Like the volume delta indicator, the Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator measures the relationship between buying and selling pressure, but does not focus on one specific candle (or other chart element), but rather gives a picture over time.
What did you want to get?
I have often seen that they tried to attach RSI and the Ichimoku cloud to the cumulative delta of volume, but I have never seen a cumulative delta of volume with a moving average. A moving average that takes data from the cumulative volume delta will be different from the moving average of the underlying asset. It has been noted that often at the intersection of the cumulative volume delta and the moving average, this is a more accurate signal to buy or sell than the same intersections for the underlying asset.
Initially, 5 moving averages were made with values of 21, 55, 89, 144 and 233, but I realized that this overloads the chart. It is easier to change the length of the moving average depending on the time frame you are using than to overload the chart. The final version with one moving SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, HMA.
The logic for applying a moving average to a cumulative volume delta:
You choose a moving average, just like you would on your underlying asset. Use the moving average you like and the period you are used to working with. Each TF has its own settings.
What we see on the graph:
This is not an oscillator, but an adapted version for a candlestick chart (line only). Using it, you can clearly see where the market is moving based on the cumulative volume delta. The cool thing is that you can include your moving average applied to the cumulative volume delta. Thanks to this, you can see a trend movement, a return to the moving average to continue the trend.
Opportunities not lost:
The most interesting thing is that it remains possible to observe the divergence of the asset and the cumulative delta of the volume. This gives a great advantage. Those who have not worked with divergence do not rush into it right away. There may be 3 peaks in divergence (as with oversold/overbought), but it works many times more clearly than RSI and MACD.
Here's a good example on the daily chart. The moment we were all waiting for 75,000. The cumulative Delta Volume fell with each peak, while the price chart (tops) were approximately level.
Usually they throw (allow to buy) without volume for sales (delta down, price up) in order to merge at a more interesting price. And they also drain without the volume of purchases for a squeeze (price down / delta up) and again I buy back at a more interesting price. There are more complex estimation options; you can read about the divergence of the cumulative delta of the CVD volume. I just recommend doing a backtest.
Recommendations:
One more moment. Use the indicator on the stock exchange, where there is the most money, by turnover and by asset. Choose Binance, not Bybit. Those. choose the BTC asset, for example, but on the Binance exchange. Not futures, but spot.
The greater the turnover on the exchange for an asset, and the fewer opportunities to enter with leverage, the less volatile the price and the more beautiful and accurate the chart.
Works on all assets. There is a subscription limit (the number of calculated bars) that has little effect on anything. Can be applied to any asset where there is volume (not SPX, but ES1, not MOEX, but MX1!).
Перевод на русский.
Вчера написал с помощью AI простой и легкий код индикатора "Кумулятивная Дельта Объема со скользящей средней".
Введение:
Дельта (Delta) — это разница между покупками и продажами. Если покупок больше — дельта положительная, если больше продаж — дельта отрицательная. Мы смотрим на каждую свечу отдельно на том или ином таймфрейме, что не дает нам общей картины во времени.
Кумулятивная дельта объема — во многом продолжение дельты объёмов, но она включает более длительные периоды времени и дает другие торговые сигналы. Как и индикатор дельты объёма, индикатор кумулятивной дельты объема (Cumulative Volume Delta, CVD) измеряет связь между давлением покупателей и продавцов, но при этом не фокусируется на одной конкретной свече (или другом элементе графика), а дает картину во времени.
Что хотел получить?
Часто видел, что к кумулятивной детьте объема пытались прикрепить RSI и облако ишимоку, но никогда не видел кумулятивную дельту объема со скользящей средней. Скользящая средняя которая берет данные от кумулятивной дельты объема будет отличатся от скользящей средней основного актива. Было замечено, что часто в местах пересечения кумулятивной дельты объема и скользящей средней - это более точный сигнал к покупке или продаже, чем такие же пересечения по основному активу.
Изначально было сделанно 5 скользящих со значениями 21, 55, 89, 144 и 233, но я понял, что это перегружает график. Проще менять длину скользящей средней от используемого таймфрейма, чем перегружать график. Финальный вариант с одной скользящей SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, HMA.
Логика применения скользящей средней к кумулятивной дельте объема:
Вы выбираете скользящую среднюю, так же как и на основном активе. Применяйте ту скользящую среднюю, которая вам нравится и период, с которым привыкли работать. На каждом TF свои настройки.
Что мы видим на графике:
Это не осциллятор, а адаптированная версия к свечному графику (только линия). С помощью него вы можете наглядно посмотреть куда движется рынок по кумулятивной дельте объема. Самое интересное, что вы можете включить свою скользящую среднюю, применимую к кумулятивной дельте объема. Благодаря этому вы можете видеть трендовое движение, возврат к средней скользящей для продолжения тренда.
Не потерянные возможности:
Самое интересное, что осталась возможность наблюдать за дивергенцией актива и кумулятивной дельтой объема. Это дает большое преимущество. Те кто не работал с дивергенцией не бросайтесь на нее сразу. Может быть и 3 пика в дивергенции (как с перепроданностью / перекупленностью), но работает в разы четче чем RSI и MACD.
Вот хороший пример на дневном графике. Момент когда мы все ждали 75000. Кумулятивная Дельта Объема падала с каждым пиком, в то время как ценовой график (вершины) были примерно на уровне.
Обычно закидывают (разрешают покупать) без объема на продажи (дельта вниз цена вверх), чтобы слить по более интересной цене. И также сливают без объема покупок для сквиза (цена вниз / дельта вверх) и опять откупаю по более интересной цене. Существуют более сложные варианты оценки, можете почитать про дивергенцию кумулятивной дельты объема CVD. Только рекомендую сделать бэктест.
Рекомендации:
Еще момент. Используйте индикатор, на бирже, там где больше всего денег, по обороту и по активу. Выбирайте не Bybit, а Binance. Т.е. выбираете актив BTC, к примеру, но на бирже Binance. Не фьючерс, а спот.
Чем более большие обороты на бирже, по активу, и меньше возможностей заходить с плечами, тем менее волатильная цена и более красивый и точный график.
Работает на всех активах. Есть ограничение по подписке (количество рассчитываемых баров) мало влияет на что. Можно применить к любому активу где есть объем (не SPX, а ES1, не MOEX, а MX1!).

VWMA Multiple TimeframesVWMA Multiple Timeframes Indicator
This TradingView indicator plots the Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) across multiple timeframes on your chart. The VWMA is a type of moving average that gives more weight to periods with higher volume, making it a valuable tool for traders who want to incorporate volume into their technical analysis.
Features:
Multi-timeframe Analysis: This indicator calculates and plots the VWMA on five different timeframes:
Weekly (W)
Daily (D)
4 Hours (240 minutes)
1 Hour (60 minutes)
15 Minutes
Visual Representation: Each timeframe's VWMA is plotted with a different color, making it easy to distinguish between them on the chart:
Weekly VWMA: Gray
Daily VWMA: Blue
4 Hours VWMA: Red
1 Hour VWMA: Green
15 Minutes VWMA: Purple
How to Use:
Trend Identification: Use the VWMA to identify the direction of the trend on different timeframes. For example, if the VWMA is trending upwards on multiple timeframes, it indicates a strong upward trend.
Support and Resistance: The VWMA can act as dynamic support or resistance levels. Price bouncing off a VWMA line might indicate a continuation of the trend.
Volume Confirmation: The VWMA considers volume, making it useful for confirming the strength of price movements. High volume moves that cause the VWMA to change direction can be more significant than low volume moves.
This indicator is ideal for traders who use multi-timeframe analysis and want to incorporate volume into their trend and support/resistance identification. Feel free to customize the periods and timeframes to suit your trading style.
Stef's Dollar Volume CounterStef's Dollar Volume Counter is my second script that I've worked on and coded. I am proud of this script because it does something very, very important: it counts the AMOUNT of money traded, not just the amount shares/contracts traded. This is key for understanding where the big and small money is.
This script is totally different from other Volume scripts because it shows the amount of money traded, NOT the shares/contracts/coins etc. Also, more importantly, it is different from other volume indicators in the same space because this script is specifically focused on showcasing specific dollar volume amounts either as a table or as a label.
Here are the 5 key features you can utilize with this:
1. Customizable Gradient Colors for BIG money and SMALL money: Visually distinguishes between high and low dollar volumes. Change the colors as needed in the indicator settings menu.
2. Dollar Volume Counter Table: Positioned at the bottom right of the chart, this table provides quick insights into the highest, lowest, and average dollar volumes over a specified period. You can customize the time period in the settings menu.
3. "Wow! Much Money!" Labels: Highlights the top three recent highest dollar volumes within the visible chart area, emphasizing significant trading periods. Also, it's hilarious :)
4. Customize the period for volume analysis, ranging from 1 to 12 months or more, with the selected timeframe displayed in the table.
5. It opens as a new pane below the chart so that you can still analyze price and more, as needed.
Thanks for reading! I look forward to hearing your feedback. This script will be updated to expand on more concepts and I'll add some cool features soon.

TASC 2024.08 Volume Confirmation For A Trend System█ OVERVIEW
This script demonstrates the use of volume data to validate price movements based on the techniques Buff Pelz Dormeier discusses in his "Volume Confirmation For A Trend System" article from the August 2024 edition of TASC's Traders' Tips . It presents a trend-following system implementation that utilizes a combination of three indicators: the Average Directional Index (ADX), the Trend Thrust Indicator (TTI), and the Volume Price Confirmation Indicator (VPCI).
█ CONCEPTS
In his article, Buff Pelz Dormeier recounts his search for an optimal trend-following strategy enhanced with volume data, starting with a simple system combining the ADX , MACD , and OBV indicators. Even in these early tests, the author observed that the volume confirmation from OBV notably improved trading performance. Subsequently, the author replaced OBV with his VPCI, which considers the proportional weights of volume and price, to enhance the validation of trend momentum. Lastly, the author explored the inclusion of his TTI, a modified MACD that features volume-based enhancements, as a strategy component for improved trend-following performance.
According to the author's research, the ADX+TTI+VPCI system outperformed similar strategies he tested in the article, yielding significantly higher returns and enhanced perceived reliability. Because the system's design revolves around catching pronounced trends, it performs best with a portfolio of individual stocks. The author applies the system in the article by allocating 5% of the equity to long positions in S&P 500 components that meet the ADX+TTI+VPCI entry criteria (see the Calculations section below for details). He uses the proceeds from closing positions to enter new positions in other stocks meeting the screening criteria, holding any excess proceeds in cash.
█ CALCULATIONS
The TTI is similar to the MACD. Its calculation entails the following steps:
Calculate fast (short-term) and slow (long-term) volume-weighted moving averages (VWMAs).
Compute the volume multiple (VM) as the square of the ratio of the fast VWMA to the slow VWMA.
Adjust these averages by multiplying the fast VWMA by the VM and dividing the slow VWMA by the VM.
Calculate the difference between the adjusted VWMAs to determine the TTI value, and take the average of that series to determine the signal line value.
The VPCI utilizes differences and ratios between VWMAs and corresponding simple moving averages (SMAs) to provide an alternative volume-price confirmation tool. Its calculation is as follows:
Subtract the slow SMA from the VWMA of the same length to calculate the volume-price confirmation/contradiction (VPC) value.
Divide the fast VWMA by the corresponding fast SMA to determine the volume-price ratio (VPR).
Divide the short-term VWMA by the long-term VWMA to calculate the VM.
Compute the VPCI as the product of the VPC, VPR, and VM values.
The long entry criteria of the ADX+TTI+VPCI system are as follows:
The ADX is above 30.
The TTI crosses above its signal line.
The VPCI is above 0, confirming the trend.
Signals to close positions occur when the VPCI is below 0, indicating a contradiction .
NOTE: Unlike in the article, this script applies the ADX+TTI+VPCI system to one stock at a time , not a portfolio of S&P 500 constituents.
█ DISCLAIMER
This strategy script educates users on the trading system outlined by the TASC article. By default, it uses 10% of equity as the order size and a slippage amount of 5 ticks. Traders should adjust these settings and the commission amount when using this script.
Auto Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) [TANHEF]Auto Volume Spread Analysis (visible volume and spread bars auto-scaled): Understanding Market Intentions through the Interpretation of Volume and Price Movements.
All the sections below contain the same descriptions as my other indicator "Volume Spread Analysis" with the exception of 'Auto Scaling'.
█ Auto-Scaling
This indicator auto-scales spread bars to match the visible volume bars, unlike the previous "Volume Spread Analysis " version which limited the number of visible spread bars to a fixed count. The auto-scaling feature allows for easier navigation through historical data, enabling both more historical spread bars to be viewed and more historical VSA pattern labels being displayed without requiring using the bar replay tool. Please note that this indicator’s auto-scaling feature recalculates the visible bars on the chart, causing the indicator to reload whenever the chart is moved.
Auto-scaled spread bars have two display options (set via 'Spread Bars Method' setting):
Lines: a bar lookback limit of 500 bars.
Polylines: no bar lookback limit as only plotted on visible bars on chart, which uses multiple polylines are used.
█ Simple Explanation:
The Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) indicator is a comprehensive tool that helps traders identify key market patterns and trends based on volume and spread data. This indicator highlights significant VSA patterns and provides insights into market behavior through color-coded volume/spread bars and identification of bars indicating strength, weakness, and neutrality between buyers and sellers. It also includes powerful volume and spread forecasting capabilities.
█ Laws of Volume Spread Analysis (VSA):
The origin of VSA begins with Richard Wyckoff, a pivotal figure in its development. Wyckoff made significant contributions to trading theory, including the formulation of three basic laws:
The Law of Supply and Demand: This fundamental law states that supply and demand balance each other over time. High demand and low supply lead to rising prices until demand falls to a level where supply can meet it. Conversely, low demand and high supply cause prices to fall until demand increases enough to absorb the excess supply.
The Law of Cause and Effect: This law assumes that a 'cause' will result in an 'effect' proportional to the 'cause'. A strong 'cause' will lead to a strong trend (effect), while a weak 'cause' will lead to a weak trend.
The Law of Effort vs. Result: This law asserts that the result should reflect the effort exerted. In trading terms, a large volume should result in a significant price move (spread). If the spread is small, the volume should also be small. Any deviation from this pattern is considered an anomaly.
█ Volume and Spread Analysis Bars:
Display: Volume and spread bars that consist of color coded levels, with the spread bars scaled to match the volume bars. A displayable table (Legend) of bar colors and levels can give context and clarify to each volume/spread bar.
Calculation: Levels are calculated using multipliers applied to moving averages to represent key levels based on historical data: low, normal, high, ultra. This method smooths out short-term fluctuations and focuses on longer-term trends.
Low Level: Indicates reduced volatility and market interest.
Normal Level: Reflects typical market activity and volatility.
High Level: Indicates increased activity and volatility.
Ultra Level: Identifies extreme levels of activity and volatility.
This illustrates the appearance of Volume and Spread bars when scaled and plotted together:
█ Forecasting Capabilities:
Display: Forecasted volume and spread levels using predictive models.
Calculation: Volume and Spread prediction calculations differ as volume is linear and spread is non-linear.
Volume Forecast (Linear Forecasting): Predicts future volume based on current volume rate and bar time till close.
Spread Forecast (Non-Linear Dynamic Forecasting): Predicts future spread using a dynamic multiplier, less near midpoint (consolidation) and more near low or high (trending), reflecting non-linear expansion.
Moving Averages: In forecasting, moving averages utilize forecasted levels instead of actual levels to ensure the correct level is forecasted (low, normal, high, or ultra).
The following compares forecasted volume with actual resulting volume, highlighting the power of early identifying increased volume through forecasted levels:
█ VSA Patterns:
Criteria and descriptions for each VSA pattern are available as tooltips beside them within the indicator’s settings. These tooltips provide explanations of potential developments based on the volume and spread data.
Signs of Strength (🟢): Patterns indicating strong buying pressure and potential market upturns.

A volume profile provides an in-depth look at trading activity over a period of time by plotting a histogram on the price axis. This indicator can also give weight to volumes based on their distance to the current time, essentially determining their importance for the profile. The range which the volume profile will cover is determined by the latest pivot points. Here is how it works step-by-step :
1. Determine how much candlesticks the volume profile will cover (Analyze Bars setting)
2. Find the latest pivot points. If the mode is set to "Pivots", the pivot points are the candlesticks which has the highest / lowest wick in X amount of bars (Swing Length setting). If the mode is set to "Order Blocks", the volume profile range is the area between the latest buyside order block and the sellside order block. Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific candlestick formations on the chart. For more information about the order block detection, I suggest you checking the write-up of our "Volumized Order Blocks" script. Increasing the "Swing Length" setting is recommended when the mode is set to "Pivots", as this will help in finding stronger pivot points.
3. Make a range using the latest pivot points, then divide it into rows (Row Count setting)
4. Then for each candlestick, add it's volume to the corresponding row in the range. Note that the volume can be added into several rows if it overlaps with them all.
5. If the candlestick is a bullish candlestick, we add it's volume into the bullish volume of the row, if it's a bearish candlestick, we add it to the bearish volume of the row.
With the weighted volume mode, which is activated if "Volume Weighthing" setting is set to "Recent" or "Past", all volumes get a penalty based on their distance to the latest candletstick. For example, if the setting is set to "Recent", the latest candlestick contributes it's volume by 100% to the corresponding row, but the candlestick which is 50 candlesticks far from the current candlestick only contributes it's volume by ~17% to the row. The same applies to the "Past" setting, but in the reversed order, where past candlesticks have more priority than the current ones.
Volume contribution percent for "Recent" setting : ((100 * 0.85) / (i + 1)) + (100 * (1.0 - 0.85))
Volume contribution percent for "Past" setting : ((100 * 0.85) * ((i + 1) / N)) + (100 * (1.0 - 0.85))
Where i = candlestick index from right to left, N = total number of candlesticks analyzed by the volume profile.
The Point Of Control (POC) line is drawn from the row with the most total volume, and is generally considered as a strong level because a lot of trading volume happened on that particular row. Traders may use this line as a support & resistance level.
We believe that automatically ranging the volume profile to important pivot points will help traders see crucial volume information easier without unnecessary hassle. Traders can use this indicator to have an insight of areas which price moves quickly without much volume, or see areas that holds the price still for much longer and plan their trades accordingly.

Volume Weighted Average Price Ratio (log) [ilyaQwerty]The VWAP Ratio indicator is a valuable tool for traders aiming to assess market trends and price movements in relation to the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). Volume Weighted Average Price Ratio represents the ratio of the price of the asset compared to total traded volume in US Dollars. In a context of Bitcoin, VWAP ratio helps traders assess the market state, if it is overvalued or undervalued. High values of the indicator can suggest that the market is highly overvalued and low values can indicate a great buying opportunity.
Ratio Calculation: The VWAP Ratio is computed by dividing the current price by the VWAP (Price / VWAP). VWAP represents a ratio between a cumulative sum of a traded value (price multiplied by the volume) and a cumulative traded volume.
BTC-Specific Optimization: Although the indicator can be applied to various assets, the VWAP Ratio indicator is particularly useful for Bitcoin (BTC) due to its significant trading volume and unique market behaviour.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator [UAlgo]The "Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator " is designed to identify and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVG) within a given lookback period on a trading chart. This indicator helps traders by highlighting areas where price gaps may signify potential trading opportunities, specifically bullish and bearish patterns. By leveraging volume and Average True Range (ATR) data, the FVG Oscillator aims to enhance the accuracy of pattern recognition and provide more reliable signals for trading decisions.
🔶 Identification of Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) are specific price areas where gaps occur, and they are often considered significant in technical analysis. These gaps can indicate potential future price movements as the market may return to fill these gaps. This indicator identifies two types of FVGs:
Bullish FVG: Occurs when the current low price is higher than the high price two periods ago. This condition suggests a potential upward price movement.
Obtains with:
low > high
Bearish FVG: Occurs when the current high price is lower than the low price two periods ago. This condition suggests a potential downward price movement.
Obtains with:
high < low
The FVG Oscillator not only identifies these gaps but also verifies them using volume and ATR conditions to ensure more reliable trading signals.
🔶 Key Features
Lookback Period: Users can set the lookback period to determine how far back the indicator should search for FVG patterns.
ATR Multiplier: The ATR Multiplier is used to adjust the sensitivity of the ATR-based conditions for verifying FVG patterns.
Volume SMA Period: This setting determines the period for the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume, which helps in identifying high volume conditions.
Why ATR and Volume are Used?
ATR (Average True Range) and volume are integrated into the Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator to enhance the accuracy and reliability of the identified patterns. ATR measures market volatility, helping to filter out insignificant price gaps and focus on impactful ones, ensuring that the signals are relevant and strong. Volume, on the other hand, confirms the strength of price movements. High volume often indicates the sustainability of these movements, reducing the likelihood of false signals. Together, ATR and volume ensure that the detected FVGs are both significant and supported by market activity, providing more trustworthy trading signals.
Normalized Values: The FVG counts are normalized to enhance the visual representation and interpretation of the patterns on the chart.
Visual Customization and Plotting: Users can customize the colors for positive (bullish) and negative (bearish) areas, and choose whether to display these areas on the chart, also plots the bullish and bearish FVG counts, a zero line, and the net value of FVG counts. Additionally, it uses histograms to display the width of verified bullish and bearish patterns.

BooBee Digital - Enhanced Buy & Sell Alerts Suite
BooBee Digital - Enhanced Buy & Sell Alerts Suite
Introduction:
The “BooBee Digital - Enhanced Buy & Sell Alerts Suite” is a comprehensive trading tool designed to provide traders with precise buy and sell signals by integrating the Average True Range (ATR) trailing stop technique and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) indicator. This script is tailored to help traders make informed decisions by considering both market volatility and trading volume.
How It Works:
1. ATR Calculation:
• Purpose: Measures market volatility to set dynamic stop levels.
• Details: The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated over a user-defined period. The ATR value reflects the average range of price movements over the specified period, which is crucial for assessing market volatility.
2. ATR Trailing Stop:
• Purpose: Identifies potential trend reversals by setting trailing stops based on market volatility.
• Details: The ATR trailing stop is dynamically adjusted using the ATR value and a user-defined sensitivity factor. This trailing stop level helps identify trend reversals by moving in accordance with price fluctuations.
3. VWAP Calculation:
• Purpose: Provides a volume-weighted average price to benchmark fair value.
• Details: The VWAP is calculated by taking the sum of the product of price and volume, divided by the total volume. This indicator gives traders a reference point for the average price at which the asset has traded throughout the day, considering trading volume.
4. EMA Crossover:
• Purpose: Adds a confirmation layer for buy and sell signals.
• Details: A 1-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is used to identify short-term price movements. Buy and sell signals are generated based on the crossover of the EMA and the ATR trailing stop, adding an extra layer of confirmation for trade entries and exits.
Signal Generation:
Buy Signal:
• Generated when the price is above the ATR trailing stop and there is a bullish crossover of the EMA and ATR trailing stop.
• Indicator: Green label below the bar with “Buy” text.
Sell Signal:
• Generated when the price is below the ATR trailing stop and there is a bearish crossover of the EMA and ATR trailing stop.
• Indicator: Red label above the bar with “Sell” text.
VWAP Line:
• The VWAP line is plotted on the chart to help traders identify significant price levels based on trading volume.
• Indicator: Blue line representing the VWAP.
How to Use:
• Chart Type: The script is designed for use on standard chart types such as Candlestick and OHLC. It does not support non-standard chart types like Heikin Ashi, Renko, Kagi, Point & Figure, and Range, as they may produce unrealistic results.
• Clean Chart: Ensure your chart is clean and free of other indicators to avoid confusion. The signals and colors plotted by the script should be easily identifiable.
• Trade Confirmation: Use the buy and sell signals generated by the script in conjunction with other analysis methods to confirm trades.
Key Concepts:
• ATR Trailing Stop: This technique sets dynamic stop levels based on market volatility, helping to identify trend reversals.
• VWAP: This indicator provides a benchmark for the average price considering trading volume, helping traders identify fair value.
• EMA Crossover: This adds a layer of confirmation for buy and sell signals, improving the accuracy of trade entries and exits.
Aggressor Volume ImbalanceAggressor volume imbalance represents the ratio between market aggressor buy volume (market buy orders) and market aggressor sell volume (market sell orders). This ratio enables traders to evaluate the interest of market aggressors and whether aggressive market activity favours the price's direction.
Analysing aggressor volume is critical in understanding market sentiment and aids in identifying shifts in momentum and potential exhaustion points in the market. When the aggressor buy volume significantly exceeds the sell volume, it typically indicates strong buying interest, driving prices higher if the offer-side liquidity cannot contain it, and vice versa.
How it Works
The imbalance ratio is calculated as follows, according to the selected session timeframe (see settings):
imbalance := ((buyVolumeAccumulator - sellVolumeAccumulator)
/ (buyVolumeAccumulator + sellVolumeAccumulator)) * 100
Aggressive Volume Imbalance uses lower timeframe historical data to calculate Historical Aggressor Volume Imbalances, while live data is used for live aggressor volume imbalances.
How to Use It
You can set the indicator to use any historical data timeframe you prefer. However, it is highly recommended to use lower timeframes (e.g., 1 second), as the lower the timeframe, the more granular the data.
The indicator resets to 0% whenever a new session timeframe begins (e.g., a new day) and calculates new values for the rest of the session. This can be configured in the settings.
Candle Patterns with Volume ValidationHey Guys !
█ This indicator shows validated Hammer and Shooting Star candle patterns based on volume.
This indicator identifies Hammer and Shooting Star patterns and validates them using volume analysis.
Hammer and Shooting Star patterns are candlestick patterns that signal potential reversals in the market.
█ Usages:
A hammer is formed when in a session, the price has fallen, only to reverse and recover to close back near the opening price. This is a sign of strength with the selling having been absorbed in sufficient strength for the buyers to overwhelm the sellers, allowing the market to recover. The hammer is so called as it is ‘hammering out a bottom’, and just like the shooting star, is immensely powerful when combined with Volume Price Analysis (VPA).
The shooting star is a bearish reversal pattern that appears at the top of uptrends. It signifies that prices have peaked and a downward reversal is likely. The presence of high volume strengthens this signal, indicating that the insiders are offloading their positions.
When combined with volume analysis, these patterns become powerful signals. The volume provides context to the price action, helping traders confirm the validity of the pattern. For example, a hammer with high volume suggests strong buying interest, whereas a shooting star with high volume indicates strong selling pressure.
█ Features:
• Detects Hammer and Shooting Star patterns.
• Validates patterns with volume thresholds.
• Color codes patterns based on volume validation.
• Allows customization of volume thresholds and pattern criteria.
• Option to show or hide signals.
█ Parameters:
• Volume Average Period: The period used to calculate the average volume.
• Higher Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define higher volume threshold.
• Much Higher Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define much higher volume threshold.
• Enormous Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define enormous volume threshold.
• Body/Shadow Ratio for Hammer and Shooting Star: Ratio of body to shadow for pattern validation.
• Upper Shadow Limit for Hammer: Upper shadow limit for Hammer pattern.
• Lower Shadow Limit for Shooting Star: Lower shadow limit for Shooting Star pattern.
• Show Hammer Signals: Display signals for Hammer patterns.
• Show Shooting Star Signals: Display signals for Shooting Star patterns.

Significant Volume with Price Changes HighlightedSignificant Volume with Price Changes Highlighted
The "Significant Volume with Price Changes Highlighted" indicator by PappyTrading is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify significant volume spikes and price changes in the market. This indicator overlays the volume bars on the price chart and highlights them based on specific volume and price change conditions, providing a clear visual representation of market activity.
What It Does
This indicator calculates the moving average of the volume over a specified period and compares the current volume to this average. It also calculates the daily percentage change relative to the previous day's close and compares this to its moving average. The volume bars are then color-coded based on the following conditions:
Bright Green (#089981): Indicates a significant volume spike with an above-average price increase.
Bright Red (#f23645): Indicates a significant volume spike with an above-average price decrease.
Green with 60% transparency: Indicates a normal up day with a price increase but not a significant volume spike.
Red with 60% transparency: Indicates a normal down day with a price decrease but not a significant volume spike.
Additionally, the indicator plots a 20-period simple moving average (SMA) of the volume, providing a reference point to understand the general volume trend.
How It Works
Volume Calculation:
The indicator calculates the 20-period SMA of the volume and compares the current volume to this average to determine if there is a significant volume spike.
Price Change Calculation:
The indicator calculates the daily percentage change in price relative to the previous day's close and compares this to the 20-period SMA of the percentage change to identify significant price movements.
Color Coding:
The volume bars are color-coded based on the combination of the volume and price change conditions. This visual representation allows traders to quickly identify significant market activities.
How to Use It
Overlay on Chart:
Add the "Significant Volume with Price Changes Highlighted" indicator to your chart. The volume bars will be displayed at the bottom of the chart, color-coded based on the conditions described above.
Identify Market Activity:
Use the color-coded volume bars to identify significant market activities. Bright green bars indicate strong buying pressure, while bright red bars indicate strong selling pressure. Transparent green and red bars indicate normal market activity without significant volume spikes.
Volume Moving Average:
The blue line represents the 20-period SMA of the volume. Use this as a reference to understand the general volume trend and identify deviations from the average.
Concepts Underlying the Calculations
Volume Spikes: Significant volume spikes often precede or accompany major market moves. By highlighting these spikes, traders can gain insights into potential market turning points or continuation patterns.
Price Changes: Large price changes relative to the previous day's close indicate strong market momentum. By comparing these changes to their moving average, the indicator helps traders identify unusually strong buying or selling pressure.

Weighted Volume Profile | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Weighted Volume Profile Indicator! This indicator renders a volume profile based on the volume of latest candlesticks. It can be adjusted to give more weight to recent or past candlesticks, or can be used as a normal volume profile. For more information, please read the full write-up.
Features of the new Weighted Volume Profile indicator :
Renders Volume Profile Of Current Ticker
Adjustable Weighthing Towards Past or Recent
Customizable Row Count & Maximum Distance
Left or Right Alignment
More Styling Options
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator differs from a normal volume profile indicator by it's ability to weight volumes based on their distance to the current time. Giving weight to volumes may offer new trading opportunities to traders as they can now see the most recent Point Of Control (POC) or a more powerful but past POC based on their choice. The indicator also has a variety of useful styling settings such as aligning the volume profile to the right or the left of the chart, POC Line styling and color settings for bullish & bearish volumes.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
A volume profile provides an in-depth look at trading activity over a period of time by plotting a histogram on the price axis. This indicator can also give weight to volumes based on their distance to the current time, essentially determining their importance for the profile. Here is how it works step-by-step :
1. Determine how much candlesticks the volume profile will cover (Analyze Bars setting)
2. Make a range from the highest point of chart to the lowest point of chart, then divide it into rows (Row Count setting)
3. For each candlestick, add it's volume to the corresponding row in the range. Note that the volume can be added into several rows if it overlaps with them.
4. If the candlestick is a bullish candlestick, we add it's volume into the bullish volume of the row, if it's a bearish candlestick, we add it to the bearish volume of the row.
With the weighted volume mode, which is activated if "Volume Weighthing" setting is set to "Recent" or "Past", all volumes get a penalty based on their distance to the latest candletstick. For example, if the setting is set to "Recent", the latest candlestick contributes it's volume by 100% to the corresponding row, but the candlestick which is 50 candlesticks far from the current candlestick only contributes it's volume by ~17% to the row. The same applies to the "Past" setting, but in the reversed order, where past candlesticks have more priority than the current ones.
Volume contribution percent for "Recent" setting : ((100 * 0.85) / (i + 1)) + (100 * (1.0 - 0.85))
Volume contribution percent for "Past" setting : ((100 * 0.85) * ((i + 1) / N)) + (100 * (1.0 - 0.85))
Where i = candlestick index from right to left, N = total number of candlesticks analyzed by the volume profile.
The Point Of Control (POC) line is drawn from the row with the most total volume, and is generally considered as a strong level because a lot of trading volume happened on that particular row. Traders may use this line as a support & resistance level.
Traders can use this indicator to have an insight of areas which price moves quickly without much volume, or see areas that holds the price still for much longer and plan their trades accordingly.

Advanced Order Blocks by AccountantXThe "Advanced Order Blocks by AccountantX" is tool designed to identify and visualize significant order blocks in the market.
This script goes beyond traditional order block detection by integrating advanced features such as volume threshold filtering, ATR-based sizing, and higher timeframe considerations.
How It works:
A. General data :
- Order Block Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish order blocks based on swing highs and lows, with options to filter by volume thresholds to ensure significant levels.
- Volume Threshold: Only displays order blocks where the volume exceeds a user-defined threshold, ensuring the highlighted zones are of particular significance.
- ATR-Based Sizing: Offers the option to use the Average True Range (ATR) for sizing order blocks, allowing for dynamic adjustment based on market volatility.
- Higher Timeframe Integration: Includes the ability to display order blocks from a higher timeframe, providing a broader market perspective.
- Customizable Appearance: Users can customize the colors and transparency of the order blocks, ensuring they fit seamlessly with any chart setup.
B. Code explanation :
- The script allows you to set a minimum volume threshold. Order blocks are only shown if the volume during their formation exceeds this threshold, ensuring that only significant price levels are highlighted.
- When enabled, the ATR (Average True Range) is used to size the order blocks. This means the height of the blocks adjusts dynamically with market volatility, providing a more accurate representation of significant zones.
- The script can display order blocks from a higher timeframe on your current chart. This is useful for aligning shorter-term trading decisions with broader market trends.
C. How to Use:
a) Set the volume threshold to filter out less significant order blocks. Adjust the value according to the typical volume of your trading instrument;
b) Enable the ATR-based sizing and set the period and multiplier to match your trading style. This helps in identifying order blocks relative to market volatility;
c) Choose a higher timeframe if you want to see significant order blocks from a broader market perspective. This can help in making more informed trading decisions.

Pivot Point Profile [LuxAlgo]The Pivot Point Profile indicator groups and displays data accumulated from previous pivot points, providing a comprehensive method for prioritizing and displaying areas of interest directly given by swing highs and lows.
Users have access to common settings present in other profile-type indicators.
🔶 USAGE
The Pivot Point Profile is particularly helpful in identifying highly active reversal zones that have been visited multiple times by price. Because of this, we could generally expect these areas to serve as future points of interest, often acting as support or resistance when re-visited.
The profile displays data associated with both Pivot Highs and Pivot Lows. Each row consists of pivot high and pivot low counts side-by-side, forming the total width of the row.
By analyzing the row as a whole, we can gain a better understanding of WHERE to look for interactions.
By analyzing the pivot counts independently, we can gain a better understanding of WHAT to expect when returning to these areas.
For example:
If a row in the profile contains entirely Pivot Lows, this could be seen as an indication to look for buyers to hold that level for a continuation upwards. A break of this level could be interpreted as a lack of interest from previous buyers at this level, indicating a further move down.
🔹 Concentrated Areas
Each row in the profile displays the current count of high pivots and low pivots within the selected lookback. The largest count for each pivot direction is identified as a "Concentrated Area (CA)", these CAs are highlighted over the chart with a line displaying the average of all pivots within that CA. The CA Average is the average of all pivot points (in the majority direction) within the given row.
These can hold more importance as potential support/resistance areas.
Note: The CA Threshold can be manually adjusted to highlight all rows based on a user-selected value.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Calculation
The idea behind the Pivot Point Profile is a new analysis method for pivot points, taking the idea of a volume profile and adapting it to display pivot points instead of volume. By using this data, in theory, we should be able to better prioritize zones to anticipate reversals, as well as identify key levels to watch for buyer & seller interactions to use as confirmations in direction.
The (vertical) width of each row is the product of the script's "Row Size", this is the number of rows that the profile will consist of. With a max of 250, the profile can be decently granular. That being said, A more granular profile will have fewer overlapping pivot points. By decreasing the row size (Using fewer rows in the profile) you will increase the tolerance for grouping pivot points. Potentially leading to a more comprehensive Profile. Inversely, By reducing the tolerance for grouping, you will better visualize only similar highs and lows but may have noisier data to sift through.
The Profile is calculated based on a "Lookback" parameter, using only the lookback amount of previous high and low pivots to calculate the profile. Configuring this parameter alongside "Pivot Length", will allow for great control over the frame of reference of the profile.
Note: This indicator is capable of utilizing the full chart history of pivot points, this can be done by enabling the "Use Full Chart History" setting, this will cause the script will calculate from everything it has access to on your current chart.
🔹 Display
The Pivot Point Profile display can be customized to fit a various range of chart styles and visual needs. The specific settings to adjust these can be located in the "Profile Display" Section of the User Inputs.
Profile Width: Sets the Left to Right Width of the Profile. This is the maximum width that the profile will occupy and will scale to fit within this width.
Profile Offset: Sets the distance of the Profile's Axis from the current chart candle. This moves the entire profile left and right to enable to user to set the distance between the profile and the current candle.
Direction: Changes the display direction of the profile, allowing for "Left", "Right", or "Center" display styles.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Pivot Point Parameters
Pivot Type: Choose between "Fractal Pivots" or "SMC Structure" to use as the basis for pivots.
Length: Sets the length for the pivot calculations.
🔹 Profile Calculations Parameters
Lookback: Sets the number of pivots to calculate within, in increments of high and low pairs. (Setting this to 1 = 1 Pivot High & 1 Pivot Low)

Row Size: Sets the total number of rows to calculate the profile with.
🔹 Profile Display
Profile Width: Sets the max left & right width (in bars) that the profile will occupy.
Profile Offset: Sets the distance of the profile axis from the last chart bar.
Direction: Sets the display direction
🔹 Concentrated Areas
Highlight CAs: Extends the rows left from concentrated areas.
CA Threshold: Manually set the threshold for determining concentrated areas, when disabled, only the largest rows will be displayed.
CA Averages: Toggles the concentrated area averages for each pivot direction.
Note: CA Averages can be displayed independently without CA Highlights being displayed, and vice versa.
