Weis Wave Max█ Overview
Weis Wave Max is the result of my weis wave study.
David Weis said,
"Trading with the Weis Wave involves changes in behavior associated with springs, upthrusts, tests of breakouts/breakdowns, and effort vs reward. The most common setup is the low-volume pullback after a bullish/bearish change in behavior."
THE STOCK MARKET UPDATE (February 24, 2013)
I inspired from his sentences and made this script.
Its Main feature is to identify the largest wave in Weis wave and advantageous trading opportunities.
█ Features
This indicator includes several features related to the Weis Wave Method.
They help you analyze which is more bullish or bearish.
Highlight Max Wave Value (single direction)
Highlight Abnormal Max Wave Value (both directions)
Support and Resistance zone
Signals and Setups
█ Usage
Weis wave indicator displays cumulative volume for each wave.
Wave volume is effective when analyzing volume from VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) perspective.
The basic idea of Weis wave is large wave volume hint trend direction. This helps identify proper entry point.
This indicator highlights max wave volume and displays the signal and then proper Risk Reward Ratio entry frame.
I defined Change in Behavior as max wave volume (single direction).
Pullback is next wave that does not exceed the starting point of CiB wave (LH sell entry, HL buy entry).
Change in Behavior Signal ○ appears when pullback is determined.
Change in Behavior Setup (Entry frame) appears when condition of Min/Max Pullback is met and follow through wave breaks end point of CiB wave.
This indicator has many other features and they can also help a user identify potential levels of trade entry and which is more bullish or bearish.

Triple CCI Strategy MFI Confirmed [Skyrexio]Overview
Triple CCI Strategy MFI Confirmed leverages 3 different periods Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator in conjunction Money Flow Index (MFI) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability setups. Fast period CCI is used for having the high probability to enter in the direction of short term trend, middle and slow period CCI are used for confirmation, if market now likely in the mid and long-term uptrend. MFI is used to confirm trade with the money inflow/outflow with the high probability. EMA is used as an additional trend filter. Moreover, strategy uses exponential moving average (EMA) to trail the price when it reaches the specific level. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Four layers trade filtering system: Strategy utilizes two different period CCI indicators, MFI and EMA indicators to confirm the signals produced by fast period CCI.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level scrip activate the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
Fast period CCI shall crossover the zero-line.
Slow and Middle period CCI shall be above zero-lines.
Price shall close above the EMA. Crossover is not obligatory
MFI shall be above 50
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with EMA. If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.75)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 2.25)
CCI Fast Length (by default = 14, used for calculation short term period CCI)
CCI Middle Length (by default = 25, used for calculation short term period CCI)
CCI Slow Length (by default = 50, used for calculation long term period CCI)
MFI Length (by default = 14, used for calculation MFI
EMA Length (by default = 50, period of EMA, used for trend filtering EMA calculation)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20)
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Before understanding why this particular combination of indicator has been chosen let's briefly explain what is CCI, MFI and EMA.
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum-based technical indicator that measures the deviation of a security's price from its average price over a specific period. It helps traders identify overbought or oversold conditions and potential trend reversals.
The CCI formula is:
CCI = (Typical Price − SMA) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation)
Typical Price (TP): This is calculated as the average of the high, low, and closing prices for the period.
Simple Moving Average (SMA): This is the average of the Typical Prices over a specific number of periods.
Mean Deviation: This is the average of the absolute differences between the Typical Price and the SMA.
The result is a value that typically fluctuates between +100 and -100, though it is not bounded and can go higher or lower depending on the price movement.
The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the strength of money flowing into and out of a security. It combines price and volume data to assess buying and selling pressure and is often used to identify overbought or oversold conditions. The formula for MFI involves several steps:
1. Calculate the Typical Price (TP):
TP = (high + low + close) / 3
2. Calculate the Raw Money Flow (RMF):
Raw Money Flow = TP × Volume
3. Determine Positive and Negative Money Flow:
If the current TP is greater than the previous TP, it's Positive Money Flow.
If the current TP is less than the previous TP, it's Negative Money Flow.
4. Calculate the Money Flow Ratio (MFR):
Money Flow Ratio = Sum of Positive Money Flow (over n periods) / Sum of Negative Money Flow (over n periods)
5. Calculate the Money Flow Index (MFI):
MFI = 100 − (100 / (1 + Money Flow Ratio))
MFI above 80 can be considered as overbought, below 20 - oversold.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that places greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. It is widely used in technical analysis to smooth price data and identify trends more quickly than the Simple Moving Average (SMA).
Formula:
1. Calculate the multiplier
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1) , Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
This strategy leverages Fast period CCI, which shall break the zero line to the upside to say that probability of short term trend change to the upside increased. This zero line crossover shall be confirmed by the Middle and Slow periods CCI Indicators. At the moment of breakout these two CCIs shall be above 0, indicating that there is a high probability that price is in middle and long term uptrend. This approach increases chances to have a long trade setup in the direction of mid-term and long-term trends when the short-term trend starts to reverse to the upside.
Additionally strategy uses MFI to have a greater probability that fast CCI breakout is confirmed by this indicator. We consider the values of MFI above 50 as a higher probability that trend change from downtrend to the uptrend is real. Script opens long trades only if MFI is above 50. As you already know from the MFI description, it incorporates volume in its calculation, therefore we have another one confirmation factor.
Finally, strategy uses EMA an additional trend filter. It allows to open long trades only if price close above EMA (by default 50 period). It increases the probability of taking long trades only in the direction of the trend.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements. It’s also important to make a note, that script uses another one EMA (by default = 20 period) as a trailing profit level.

Z The Good Stuff +I created this script to have a couple datapoints that I want to look at when going through charts to find trade ideas. Qullamaggie is one of my biggest inspirations and I built in a couple of his concepts with a touch to help me with sizing properly, all explained below:
Box 1: ADR %, Average Daily Range, gives and indication of how volatile the stock is. It uses the 20 day average % move of the current stock on the chart.
Box 2: LOD Distance, low of day distance is a quality of life element I created. It calculates the low for the current candle and color codes it red or green depending on if it's higher or lower than the daily ADR. The logic is that if a stock has an average speed, buying on a setup it is preferred if the stop distance (assuming a low of day stop) should be less than the ADR to improve the odds of more upside.
Box 3: Todays DV, this shows a rough estimate of how much money was traded on the particular day.
Box 4: ADV 20 days, similar to above this shows the 20 day $ traded average. The point to look at it is to have a better idea what position size is possible to not get stuck in something too illiquid.
Box 5: Market cap, just shows the market cap of the stock to know what size the company is.
Box 6: Number of shares, this is an additional quality of life aspect. If using low of day stops, this part calculates based on the users' inputted portfolio size and portfolio risk preference and then calculates how many stocks to buy to stay within the risk parameters. It is obviously not a sole decision making parameter nor does it guarantee any execution, but if a stock is showing an entry you want to take you can use the number of shares to help you know how many to buy. The preset is a portfolio of 10000 and a risk of 0.25%. This means that the number of shares to buy will be at the current price with lod stop that would result in a 0.25% portfolio loss. OF COURSE the actual loss depends on the execution and if the user places a stop loss order.
Hope you find it useful and feel free to give feedback! Cheers!
Ultimate Volatility RateUltimate Volatility Rate
This indicator measures the volatility of price movements.
Support and Resistance Identification:
High volatility periods indicate larger price movements, which can be useful in assessing the potential for support and resistance levels to be broken.
Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) Calculations:
The average volatility can be used to calculate dynamic Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels:
SL: Placing it at a certain volatility multiplier below/above the entry price.
TP: Setting it at a certain volatility multiplier below/above the entry price.
For example:
SL: Entry price +/- (UVR × 1.5)
TP: Entry price +/- (UVR × 2)
Market Condition Analysis:
When the indicator value is high, it suggests that the market is volatile (active).
When the value is low, it indicates the market is in consolidation (sideways movement).
This information helps traders decide whether to take trend-following or consolidation-based positions.
Trend Reversal Monitoring:
A sudden increase in volatility often signals the start of a strong trend.
Conversely, a decrease in volatility can signal the slowing down or end of a trend.
BTC InsightThis script is a comprehensive tool for analyzing Bitcoin's daily price range, trend predictions, and significant volume-based order block levels. It combines multiple technical analysis concepts, including exponential moving averages (EMAs), logarithmic calculations, and custom indicators for advanced forecasting and visualization.
Key Features and Technical Details
1. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
The script calculates two smoothed EMAs:
EMA1 and EMA2 are derived from the logarithmic price of Bitcoin (log(close)).
The smoothing periods and multipliers are user-configurable through inputs:
Smoothed EMA1 Period (default: 728)
Smoothed EMA2 Period (default: 728)
Initial EMA Multipliers (default: 1.0 for EMA1, 5.0 for EMA2)
A time decay factor is applied to the multipliers to adjust sensitivity over time, making the EMAs adaptive to market dynamics.
2. Logarithmic Domain Calculations
The script uses logarithmic transformations to enhance accuracy when dealing with large price changes.
Adjustments to EMAs are made in the logarithmic domain and converted back to the price domain for plotting.
3. EMA Forecasting
The script performs a linear regression analysis over a specified period (728 bars by default) to estimate future price trends for both EMAs.
Slope Adjustments:
RSI (Relative Strength Index) is incorporated to modify the forecast slope dynamically:
RSI > 70: Bearish adjustment (-0.5)
RSI < 30: Bullish adjustment (+0.5)
Forecasts are plotted as dashed lines, projecting future values of EMA1 (green) and EMA2 (red).
4. Order Block Detection
Detects order block levels based on high volume spikes relative to the average volume over a lookback period (default: 100 bars).
A volume multiplier (default: 1.5x) is applied to identify significant volume activity.
Two types of order blocks are identified:
Below EMA1: A price zone where significant buying occurred below EMA1.
Above EMA2: A price zone where significant selling occurred above EMA2.
Order blocks are visualized as shaded rectangles:
Green boxes represent order blocks below EMA1.
Red boxes represent order blocks above EMA2.
5. Customization Inputs
The script allows fine-tuning via the following parameters:
EMA Settings: Periods, multipliers, and time factors for both EMAs.
Volume Analysis Settings: Lookback period and volume multiplier for order block detection.
Order Block Box Settings: Height of the range as a percentage of the detected price.
6. Visualization
EMAs: Two smoothed exponential moving averages are plotted with configurable offsets.
Forecast Lines: Dashed lines project future EMA trends based on regression analysis.
Order Block Boxes: Highlight areas of high volume below EMA1 and above EMA2, indicating potential support or resistance zones.
How It Works in Practice
EMAs and Trend Analysis:
The EMAs represent long-term market trends, adjusted dynamically using custom multipliers and time decay.
The script forecasts the EMAs' future trajectories to anticipate potential price movements.
Order Blocks:
High-volume zones indicate areas where significant market activity occurred, providing insights into potential price reversal points or continuation zones.
RSI Integration:
RSI-based slope adjustment fine-tunes the EMA forecast, adding an extra layer of dynamic market context.
Comprehensive View:
By combining trend forecasts with volume-based zones, the script delivers a robust analysis tool for identifying potential entry/exit points, support/resistance levels, and long-term trend predictions.
Dix$on's Weighted Volume FlowDixson's Weighted Volume Flow
Dixson's Weighted Volume Flow is a technical indicator designed to analyze and visualize the distribution of buy and sell volume within a given timeframe. It dynamically calculates the proportional allocation of volume based on price action within each bar, providing insights into market sentiment and activity. This indicator displays horizontal volume bars in a separate pane and annotates them with precise volume values.
How It Works
1. Volume Allocation:
- The indicator calculates buy and sell volume using the following formulas:
- Buy Volume = (Close - Low) / (High - Low) Total Volume
- Sell Volume = (High - Close) / (High - Low) Total Volume
- These formulas allocate volume proportionally based on the bar's price range, attributing more volume to buying or selling depending on the relationship between the close, high, and low prices.
2. Dynamic Scaling:
- The buy and sell volumes are scaled relative to their combined total for the period.
- The resulting values determine the length of the horizontal bars, providing a comparative view of buy and sell activity.
3. Bar Visualization:
- Buy Volume Bars: Displayed as green horizontal bars.
- Sell Volume Bars: Displayed as red horizontal bars.
- The lengths of the bars represent the dominance of buy or sell volume, scaled dynamically within the pane.
4. Labels:
- Each bar is annotated with a label showing its calculated buy or sell volume value.
5. Timeframe Adjustment:
- The indicator uses the request.security() function to fetch data from the selected timeframe, allowing users to customize their analysis for intraday, daily, or longer-term trends.
6. Customization Options:
- Enable or disable the indicator using a toggle.
- Adjust colors for the buy/sell bars and text labels to suit your chart theme.
How to Use It
1. Enable the Indicator:
- Activate the indicator using the "Enable/Disable" toggle in the settings.
2. Select a Timeframe:
- Choose the timeframe for analysis (e.g., 1-minute, 1-hour, daily). The indicator fetches volume data specific to the selected timeframe.
3. Interpret the Visualization:
- Compare Bar Lengths:
- Longer buy volume bars (green) indicate stronger buying activity.
- Longer sell volume bars (red) suggest dominant selling pressure.
- Labels:
- Use the labels to view the exact buy and sell volume values for precise analysis.
4. Combine with Other Tools:
- Use the indicator alongside price action analysis, support/resistance levels, or trend indicators to confirm market sentiment and detect potential reversals.
5. Monitor Imbalances:
- Significant disparities between buy and sell volume can signal shifts in market sentiment, such as the end of a trend or the start of a breakout.
Practical Applications
- Trend Confirmation:
- Align the dominance of buy or sell volume with price trends to confirm market direction.
- Reversal Signals:
- Watch for volume imbalances or a sudden shift in the dominance of buy or sell volume to identify potential reversals.
- High-Activity Zones:
- Identify areas with increased volume to anticipate significant price movements or key support/resistance interactions.
Dixson's Weighted Volume Flow provides a clear and systematic way to analyze market activity by visualizing the dynamics of buy and sell volume. It is particularly useful for traders looking to enhance their understanding of volume-based sentiment and its impact on price movements.
Real-Time Custom Candle Range Color Indicator
The script allows the user to input a custom range value (default set to 100 points) through the userDefinedRange variable. This value determines the minimum range required for a candle to change color.
Calculating Candle Range:
The script calculates the range of each candle by subtracting the low from the high price.
Determining Bullish or Bearish Candles:
It checks whether the close price is higher than the open price to determine if a candle is bullish (isBullish variable).
Coloring Candles:
Based on the custom range input, the script changes the color of the candles:
If the candle's range is greater than or equal to the custom range and it is bullish, the candle color is set to blue (bullishColor).
If the range condition is met and the candle is bearish, the color is set to orange (bearishColor).
If the range condition is not met, the color is set to na (not applicable).
Plotting Colored Candles:
The plotcandle function is used to plot candles with colors based on the custom range and bullish/bearish conditions. The candles will have a higher z-order to be displayed in front of default candles.
Displaying High and Low Price Points:
Triangular shapes are plotted at the high and low price levels using the plotshape function, with colors representing bullish (blue) and bearish (orange) conditions.
In trading, this indicator can help traders visually identify candles that meet a specific range criteria, potentially signaling strength or weakness in price movements. By customizing the range parameter, traders can adapt the indicator to different market conditions and trading strategies. It can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to make informed trading decisions based on candlestick patterns and price movements.
TechniTrend: CandleMetrics🟦 Overview
The TechniTrend: CandleMetrics Indicator is a powerful tool designed to give traders an in-depth analysis of candlestick structures. This indicator allows users to identify potential reversal points, trend continuations, and other crucial market behaviors by examining key ratios between candle components—such as body, shadow, and overall range—alongside volume conditions. The advanced filtering options offer flexibility for both novice and experienced traders, enabling tailored setups to suit different trading strategies.
🟦 Key Features
🔸Customizable Ratios: Set thresholds for Body-to-Range, Shadow-to-Range, Upper Shadow-to-Range, and Lower Shadow-to-Range ratios.
🔸Volume-Based Filters: Integrate volume conditions to strengthen the reliability of signals.
🔸Flexible Conditions: Choose whether filters should work independently or in combination, allowing for precise pattern identification.
🔸Visual Markers: Mark potential signals with a distinct background color and symbols on the chart.
🔸Alerts: Receive notifications for each selected condition, ensuring you never miss an opportunity.
🟦 How It Works
The CandleMetrics Indicator operates by analyzing the relationship between different components of each candlestick, combined with volume data to determine the strength of signals. Here’s a detailed breakdown of each feature:
🔸 Body to Range Ratio:
This filter compares the size of the candle's body to its total range (from high to low).
Example Setting: If you’re interested in spotting candles with small bodies relative to their total range, you might set the Body-to-Range Ratio to “Less than 0.3.”
🔸 Shadow to Range Ratio:
This examines the combined size of both shadows (upper and lower) relative to the entire candle range.
Example Setting: Use a Shadow-to-Range Ratio set to “More than 0.8” to find candles with significant wick lengths, suggesting market indecision.
🔸 Upper Shadow to Range Ratio:
This filter assesses the proportion of the upper shadow (wick) in relation to the candle’s full range.
Example Setting: “Less than 0.05” can help identify situations where the upper shadow is minimal, indicating strong downward pressure.
🔸 Lower Shadow to Range Ratio:
It measures the lower shadow compared to the entire candle range.
Example Setting: “More than 0.7” is useful for detecting potential rejection patterns at lower prices, hinting at a possible bullish reversal.
🔸 Volume Filter:
Integrates volume data to verify the reliability of each candle pattern.
Example Setting: Apply a Volume Filter Length of 100 with an SMA type to smooth volume data over a longer period, filtering out short-term noise and focusing on significant volume shifts.
🟦 Combining Filters
The indicator offers an option to Combine Filters. When this setting is enabled, all selected conditions must be met simultaneously for a candle to be marked. If disabled, each condition functions independently, allowing more flexibility in detecting diverse patterns.
🟦 Examples & Use Cases
🔸Example 1: Spotting Reversal Opportunities
I used the following configuration to find potential bullish reversals:
Upper Shadow to Range Ratio: “Less than 0.05” – Looking for candles with almost no upper shadow.
Lower Shadow to Range Ratio: “More than 0.7” – Highlighting candles with a significant lower shadow.
Volume Filter Length: 100 with SMA.
This setup effectively highlights candles where price rejection is happening at lower levels, suggesting a potential trend reversal to the upside.
🔸Example 2: Detecting Market Uncertainty
If you want to focus on candles showing market hesitation, try:
Shadow to Range Ratio: “More than 0.85” – Emphasizing long-wick candles that could indicate indecision.
Disable Combine Filters to allow flexibility, marking any candle meeting the above criteria.
🟦 Detailed Explanation of Each Option
Here’s a clear and concise breakdown of each option for a better understanding:
1. Body to Range Ratio
Purpose: This ratio shows how significant the candle's body is compared to its overall range. A smaller body-to-range ratio can indicate a potential reversal if the market appears indecisive.
How to Use: Increase the ratio to filter for stronger trend candles; decrease it to identify reversal or indecision candles.
2. Shadow to Range Ratio
Purpose: This filter captures the size of both shadows relative to the candle's total range. A larger ratio often points to market hesitation, while a smaller ratio suggests a decisive move.
How to Use: Adjust this filter to focus on candles with long wicks (indecision) or short wicks (decisiveness).
3. Upper Shadow to Range Ratio
Purpose: Helps to identify candles with strong downward moves by focusing on the upper wick length. A small upper shadow can imply sellers' dominance.
How to Use: Lower the ratio to detect candles with minimal upward rejection.
4. Lower Shadow to Range Ratio
Purpose: Targets candles with strong buying pressure by analyzing the lower shadow. A larger lower shadow may indicate a bullish reversal.
How to Use: Increase the ratio to spot rejection candles with significant lower shadows.
5. Volume Filter
Purpose: Adds a volume component to verify the validity of each candlestick pattern. Higher-than-average volume often signifies the strength of a move.
How to Use: Adjust the filter length and type to smooth out volume fluctuations based on your trading timeframe.
🟦 Indicator Alerts
Each filter has its own alert configuration, enabling traders to stay updated on market conditions that meet their selected criteria. You can customize alerts to trigger whenever a condition is met, helping to manage trades even when away from the screen.
Market GhostGhost Candles: Volume-Based Transparency Indicator
Before adding the indicator to the chart, hide the chart candles (the chart would get blank) otherwise no changes will be visible on your chart due to the display of the original candles (transparencies won't be visible because the full-opaque candles cover them)
This unique indicator dynamically adjusts the transparency of candles based on their volume relative to the past X candles. Candles with low volume become more transparent, while those with higher volume appear more opaque, creating a smooth gradient effect. This allows for a visual representation of market activity where low-volume candles "fade" into the background, making high-volume candles stand out more clearly.
Customizable Lookback Period: Adjust the lookback period (X candles) to suit your analysis.
Volume-Based Visualization: A smooth gradient of transparency helps to visualize volume strength relative to recent market activity.
Unique Aesthetic: Adds a unique, "ghostly" aesthetic to the chart, ideal for identifying volume trends without the clutter of traditional indicators.
This script is perfect for traders who want to visually highlight volume strength while maintaining a clean, easy-to-read chart.

The midpoint of each session is marked with a dashed line. The indicator also marks a developing session while it being formed as well to identify potential secondary levels.
Usage
It can be used to trade session breakouts, false breaks and also divide the daily movement into parts and identify possible patterns while trading.
2. Volumes
Inputs
The volume part has 2 inputs - Smoothing and Normalisation. The smoothing period can simply be used to take in charge volumes of last X bars and normalisation can be used for calculating relative volumes based on last Y bars.
How it works
The indicator takes into account the buy and sell volumes of last X bars and then displays that as a relative smoothed volume which helps to identify longer term build or distribution of volume. It plots the positive volume from 0 to 100 and negative volume from 0 to -100 which has been normalised. The colors identify gradual increase or decrease in volumes
Usage
It can also be used to trade volume spikes well and can identify potential market shifts
Abnormal volume [VG]🪙 INTRODUCTION
This technical indicator helps identify and highlight large volume clusters on the chart.
Abnormal volume refers to unusually large accumulations of volume over short time intervals. Such clusters appear when the amount of assets bought or sold significantly exceeds typical volumes for a specific asset over a given period. These patterns can indicate significant events or intentions of market participants.
Reasons for abnormal volume clusters:
Institutional investments :
Large investment funds and banks may buy or sell significant volumes of assets to rebalance their portfolios.
Impact of news and events :
Important news (e.g., mergers, bankruptcies, management changes) can trigger large-scale buying or selling of assets.
Market manipulation :
Big players may execute large trades to artificially create demand or supply for an asset, affecting its price in the short term.
Insider trading :
Abnormal volumes may signal that someone with insider information has started buying or selling assets in anticipation of future events that could impact the price.
What do abnormal volume clusters mean for traders?
A signal of potential price changes :
High trading volumes are often accompanied by sharp price movements. An increase in volume during price growth might indicate rising interest in the asset, while an increase during a decline could signal a sell-off.
Potential entry or exit points :
For short-term traders, abnormal trades can serve as signals to enter or exit positions. For example, a large volume growth accompanied by a breakout of a key level might be seen as a buy signal.
Caution due to potential manipulation :
Abnormal trades don’t always lead to expected outcomes. Sometimes, they are part of a price manipulation strategy, so it’s essential to consider the broader context and confirm with other signals.
🪙 USAGE
This indicator doesn’t provide trading signals, entry points, or actionable recommendations.
Instead, it simplifies tracking market dynamics and highlights unusual activity worth considering during analysis.
After adding the indicator to the chart, you only need to configure two parameters: the threshold value that determines what constitutes a significant volume cluster and the period over which volumes are aggregated for comparison against the threshold.
It’s recommended to use the shortest available period, as this helps more precisely identify the prevailing volume direction (since this depends on price changes, not trade direction).
The threshold value can be fine-tuned by switching the chart’s timeframe to match the selected period, observing of the significant volume increase on the classic volume histogram, and noting the corresponding market reactions. This allows for selecting a threshold that highlights early signs of impactful trading events on higher timeframes.
Let’s look at an example in the screenshot:
Once the parameters are set, you can also enable an alert to trigger whenever a new volume cluster appears, simplifying event tracking.
Note: in the current version of the indicator, the alert will be triggered only once per bar on the chart at the first detected cluster of abnormal volume.
🪙 IMPLEMENTATION
Technically, the script retrieves volume data from a lower timeframe and estimates whether the volume was primarily generated by buyers or sellers based on price movements.
The lower resolution timeframe is determined as follows:
if the settings base period is less than 1 minute, then the data timeframe will be equal to 1 second
if the settings base period is equals 1 minute or more, then the data timeframe will be equal to 1 minute
The algorithm checks whether the price increased or decreased at each point. If the price rose, the volume is presumed to be driven by buyers and marked as buy volume; otherwise, it’s marked as sell volume.
The total volume at each point is then checked against the user-defined threshold. If the volume exceeds the threshold, a corresponding circle is drawn on the chart, and an alert is generated if created.
The size of the visual representation is proportional to the most recent maximum volume and follows the rules below:
Percentage of max volume -> Volume cluster size
less than 25% -> Tiny
25% to 50% -> Small
50% to 75% -> Normal
75% to 100% -> Large
100% or more -> Huge
🪙 SETTINGS
The indicator is designed to be as simple and minimalist as possible, making configuration effortless. There are only two core parameters, with additional options to customize the colors of volume clusters based on their type.
Trade volume threshold
Defines the volume level above which a cluster is considered significant and displayed on the chart as a circle. The size of the circle depends on the proportion of the current volume relative to the most recent maximum over the chosen period.
Trades base period
Specifies the period for aggregating trade volumes to determine whether they qualify as abnormal. The significance level is set using the Trade volume threshold parameter.
Buy/Sell trades
Allows you to set the colors for abnormal volume circles based on the price direction during cluster formation.
🪙 CONCLUSION
Abnormal volume clusters are always a critical indicator requiring attention and analysis, but they are not a guaranteed predictor of trend changes.
VAMA - Volume Adjusted Moving Average [jpkxyz]VAMA is a moving average that adapts to volume, giving more weight to price movements backed by higher relative volume.

VAMA (Volume Adjusted Moving Average) Technical Analysis:
Core Calculation:
1. Volume Influence (v2i):
v2i = volume / ((total_volume/total_periods) * volume_factor)
- total_volume: Sum of volume over sample period
- total_periods: Either full history (nvb=0) or specified sample size
- volume_factor: Controls sensitivity to volume deviation
2. Price Weighting:
weighted_price = source_price * v2i
3. Accumulation Process:
- Iterates through length*10 periods
- Accumulates weighted prices and volume influence values
- Continues until volume influence sum >= specified length or strict rule triggers
4. Final VAMA Value:
vama = (weighted_sum - (volume_sum - length) * last_price) / length
Parameters:
- SampleN: Historical reference length (0=full history)
- Length: Base period for calculation
- VI Factor: Volume influence multiplier (>0.01)
- Strict: Forces exact length period completion when true
- Source: Input price data
Bostian Intraday Intensity Index (BII)The Bostian Intraday Intensity Index (BII) is a metric used to analyze the trading volume and price movements of a specific stock or asset, measuring the strength and pressure of the market. BII captures buy and sell signals by examining the relationship between trading volume and price fluctuations. Below is an explanation of the key components and calculation method for BII:
○ BII Formula:
sum(V*((C-L)^2-(H-C)^2))/(H-L)))
V (Volume): Trading volume
C (Close): Closing price
L (Low): Lowest price
H (High): Highest price
○ Meaning of the Indicator:
Positive Values: When BII is positive, it indicates strong buying pressure. The closer the closing price is to the high, the stronger the buying pressure.
Negative Values: When BII is negative, it indicates strong selling pressure. The closer the closing price is to the low, the stronger the selling pressure.
○ How to Use:
Buy Signal: When the BII value is positive and trending upwards, it may be considered a buying opportunity.
Sell Signal: When the BII value is negative and trending downwards, it may be considered a selling opportunity.
The BII indicator is useful for analyzing the strength and pressure of the market through the correlation of price movements and trading volume. It helps investors capture buy and sell signals to make better investment decisions.
Accumulation Momentum IndicatorEveryone wants to be in a trend, I think this indicator does a great job at showing that key momentum that traders try and capitalize on everyday. I used a Stochastic Momentum Indicator (SMI) indicator. It's a lot like a slower MACD which allows me to capitalize on changing momentum. My goal was to make an indicator that was able to use a weighted mean of many accumulation/momentum indicators. This would give me a well rounded look to really see what direction the momentum and volume is heading.
I did some research on some of the best Accumulation and Momentum Indicators. I landed on 4.
The Accumulation Distribution line which measures the cumulative flow of money in or out of a security. It helps show how quickly money is going in and out of a commodity. The line moving up quickly indicates fast Accumulation while the A/C line is moving down quickly is shows falling Distribution. This can show the momentum and accumulation of a commodity in short and long term based off of Volume.
The On Balance Volume, OBV is a combination of Price Movement and Volume. If price closes higher then the previous bar volume is added while if the price closes lower volume is subtracted. This gives us an overall tally of whether volume is increasing with price or slowing down the momentum in the direction of the current trend. This gives us the ability to see if volume is supporting the price increasing (beginning/middle of a trend) or price is slowing down even though it is still heading in the direction of the current trend (signaling the end of the current trend).
The Force Index, this indicator measures the overall strength of the price movements. It does this by a calculation of price and volume. The close of the current bar subtracted by the previous multiplied by the volume. The result gives us either strong upward or downward motion. This adds magnitude to the overall movement/momentum of the indicator.
Lastly but most certainly not least is the Momentum indicator, (Price Momentum) a simple indicator that shows you the difference between the current close price and the close price from a specified period ago (Most commonly 14 periods/bars ago). Having this indicator is a must because it shows the speed at which price is accelerating or decelerating.
These 4 indicators together help round out the current volume, price movements, accumulation, and momentum of the current market. Since these indicators all have different scales and calculations I had to Normalize the Values to a 0-100 scale. This gives us 1 line and a much more readable easy to understand indicator. After they were normalized I gave them a weighted average that you can control. So lets say you cared more about the Force Index and the OBV rather then the Momentum and the Accumulation Distribution indicators, you would be able to give them more weight in the overall calculation as well as 0 out those you don't even want involved.
I hope the flexibility and the combination of 4 strong Accumulation Momentum indicators helps you better gauge the direction a commodity might head. The way it's used is when the Accumulation Momentum line is Above 50 buying pressure is stronger then selling pressure. An Accumulation Momentum line Below 50 suggests that distribution is more dominant in the current market. This indicator combines four different methods of analyzing price and volume to give you a single composite momentum score, making it easier to visualize when a commodity is being accumulated or distributed and how quickly this process is happening. It helps you track market sentiment based on both price movement and volume, with a clear, visual representation of buying and selling pressure.
Please let me know what you think and how you think I might be able to improve the script. Enjoy!

Buying and Selling PressureThis indicator estimates and visualizes the buying and selling pressure within each bar by distributing the volume based on where the closing price falls within the bar's range. It calculates cumulative buying and selling volumes over the last 10 bars and plots these values, allowing traders to assess market sentiment and potential shifts in momentum.
This indicator provides valuable insights into market dynamics by estimating buying and selling pressures over a set period. By visualizing these pressures, you can enhance your understanding of market sentiment and improve decision-making processes. It's most effective when used alongside other forms of analysis, such as price action, support and resistance levels, and additional technical indicators.
Note: Always thoroughly test any new indicator or trading strategy before applying it to live trading. Understanding how it behaves under different market conditions ensures it aligns with your trading objectives and risk management practices.
Buy vs Sell VolumeHow It Works:
BuyVol: Estimates buying volume by calculating the proportion of volume attributed to the upward price movement within each bar.
SellVol: Estimates selling volume by calculating the proportion of volume attributed to the downward price movement within each bar.
Customization:
length: You can adjust the length input parameter to change the period over which the average is calculated.
Visualization:
The buy trendline is plotted in Green and represents the average net buying vs. selling volume over the specified period.
The sell trendline is plotted in Red and represents the average net selling vs. buying volume over the specified period.
Note: This script provides an approximation and should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools to make informed trading decisions.
Multi-Timeframe Volume-Weighted RSIA multiple timeframe volume-weighted RSI.
Blue Line = Current Time Frame
Orange Line = Select your desired Time Frame
e.g. Blue = Daily, Orange = Weekly
1. Incorporates Market Commitment
Value: By factoring in volume, the volume-weighted RSI captures the intensity of trading activity behind price movements.
Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI measures price momentum but does not differentiate between moves with high or low trading activity.
A volume-weighted RSI assigns greater importance to price changes occurring on high volume, reflecting stronger market conviction.
2. Improved Signal Reliability
Value: Signals generated by a volume-weighted RSI (e.g., overbought or oversold conditions) may be more reliable because they account for the level of trader participation.
Why it’s useful:
Low-volume price movements often result in false signals or "noise."
A volume-weighted RSI helps filter out such noise, reducing the likelihood of false breakouts or fake reversals.
3. Better Divergence Detection
Value: Divergences between price action and the RSI (bullish or bearish divergences) are more meaningful when confirmed by volume.
Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI might show divergence in price momentum, but this divergence might lack substance if the underlying volume is weak.
A volume-weighted RSI ensures that divergence signals align with periods of significant market participation.
4. Enhanced Trend Analysis
Value: Trends supported by strong volume are given more weight, helping traders better identify and follow trends.
Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI might show overbought or oversold signals prematurely during strong trends.
Volume-weighted RSI considers whether trends are backed by significant market activity, helping avoid early exits.
5. More Meaningful Overbought/Oversold Levels
Value: Levels like 70 (overbought) and 30 (oversold) are more credible when supported by volume.
Why it’s useful:
In a regular RSI, overbought or oversold levels might occur on light trading, leading to false reversals.
A volume-weighted RSI ensures these levels are triggered by substantial market participation, increasing their reliability.
Practical Applications:
Trend Confirmation: Use the volume-weighted RSI to confirm whether momentum in a trend is supported by strong participation.
Divergence Spotting: Identify divergences with more confidence by prioritizing those with volume support.
Filtering False Breakouts: Avoid entering trades during weak volume phases by focusing on volume-weighted RSI signals.
Limitations:
Market Type Dependency: Its usefulness may diminish in low-volume assets or markets where volume data is unavailable (e.g., forex).
