The Normalizer [BVCC]The Normalizer adds an indicator to your chart with the option to view regular Volume, normalized Volume or normalized price.
Normalized Volume divides the current Volume bar into a moving average and multiplies by 100. The resulting plot is a histogram showing how far above or below the moving average that volume bar was.
Normalized Price does the exact same thing, but uses the close price of the current candle.
The result of a normalized bar chart is that sometimes activities of unusually low or high patterns can be seen that are not obvious when looking at the standard data points.
Customizable Settings include;
1) Check/Uncheck the first box to set the view to Volume or Price
2) Check 'Normalize' when on Volume to toggle between standard Volume and Normalized Volume
3) Price is always Normalized
4) Normalization is calculated from the SMA and the default is set to 9 - John Bollinger suggest setting this to 50
5) Normalization period can be set with the 'Period' option
This indicator was created for members of the BVCC trading community as an example of the normalization methods described in John Bollinger's "Bollinger on Bollinger Bands". Mr. Bollinger talks extensively about normalization and specifically volume normalization. I added the price normalization as a fun bonus just because. :)
Cumulative Force IndexVolume indicator adapted from Elder's Force Index.

Trader Set - Volume MetricThe last tool in my methodology set, another one of those tools that has unique unpublished formulas, this one purely for following volume and reading smart money's hand, YES it's possible. This indicator has few Alerts built in that you can use, will update the rest of the scripts for additional alerts. You can easily set the alert to play a sound that is not disturbing in long run and check mark open ending and have easy time being alerted when some crossings are happening.
Please, don't ask for access, only my students from my classes will have access to this indicator. The English version of the website and learning material is under development and the moment they get ready I will announce it under each related script.
Ultimate Volume (UV) Supply/Demand Absorption [cI8DH]This is a variant of my ADV indicator which adds low/high volume trend, supply/demand absorption detection and separate buy/sell volume moving averages. When aggregation is set to cumulative, it can replicate my ADL indicator as well. It shows both regular volume bars and the accumulated/distributed (A/D) portions of volume.
Green line shows buy volume/accumulation and red line shows sell volume/distribution. This can help with assessing buy/sell pressure (read "why invent a new indicator" for more info about why this is more accurate than CMF , MFI, OBV and Williams AD for this purpose).
Volume trend shows high and low volume periods in blue and yellow respectively. This could help with avoiding over-trading during low market activity periods.
Supply/demand absorption is shown at the top (below volume trend). It shows that market is resisting the trend which could most often lead to sideways or minor/major trend change. Darker colors show stronger resistance. This feature is configured with two parameters that might require tuning depending on the asset and time frame.
The equation to calculate accumulation/distribution (A/D) is elegant and intuitive. It calculates candle body to candle height ratio and multiplies it by volume: volume*(close-open)/(high-low). This is the building block of my three other indicators ADMF , ADP and ADL ( UMF includes all these three indicators). The volume bars has two shades of green and red. The dark shade shows amount of A/D and the light shade shows total volume (what you see on a regular volume indicator).
When money volume is enabled, volume is multiplied by price. As you can see in the chart below, trade volume in terms of USD was growing over the past years while it has not made a new ATH in terms of the instrument (BTC).
Notes
- Uncheck "Money Volume" for Bitmex or any other exchange that shows volume in terms of money.
- Smooth MA length N = EMA length 2*N-1
- Combined tickers, e.g. (COINBASE:BTCUSD+BITSTAMP:BTCUSD+KRAKEN:XBTUSD)/3, can mitigate inconsistency issues between different exchanges (I recommend not mixing USD and USDT pairs together)
Here is a TL;DR list of my indicators to save you some time from looking at my obsolete indicators.
Δ Volume Finder Vol Delta v1.0 by 🇨🇷🇾🇵🇹🇴🇷🇹🇭🇾🇭🇲🇸Δ Volume Finder Vol Delta v1.0 by 🇨🇷🇾🇵🇹🇴🇷🇹🇭🇾🇭🇲🇸
General Description
💰This indicator is given FREE to all our premium indicator subscribers.
🔊Volume Finder is an indicator designed to provide additional insights, and actionable information from the vanilla volume indicator you are all used to.
ℹ More information is never a bad thing! This indicator gives you several tools in one package. The aim is to give volume some additional depth and utility.
🕞The indicator works on any timeframe and any market that has basic volume data (stocks, forex, crypto).
📜 Features
🎚 First off the volume bars are split into positive volume and negative volume. This allows you to more easily visualize the amount of a "green" candle that was actually SELLS, and vice versa - the amount of a "red" candle that were actually BUYS.
🌈It will auto gradient the volume levels based on historical volume range for whatever instrument you are looking at. Yellow bars are deviated outside the lower range (many times this will precede a breakout / breakdown).
🚫If you do not wish to set the auto gradient, you can manually set the levels you would like via settings, or turn it off.
🚦 Next is the Volume Delta. This is the line that is oscillating above and below zero. This shows you the net positive or negative volume. In other words, it shows you the total positive or negative volume.
➕➖ Third are options for EMA plots of the total positive volume and total negative volume. This should be pretty self explanatory.
📩 Lastly is a system that generates alerts when volume breaks out past a certain user defined level. You can plot these alerts as one or both of the following: colored bars on the price chart, or alert bubbles within the indicator pane.

🥢 Crypto-Sticks: Commodity Channel Index 1.0 by Cryptorthyhms🥢 Crypto-Sticks™ CCI
A new series of indicators brought to you by Cryptorthyhms...giving you an alternate look at your trusted favorites!
🚀 Indicator Specific Info
I have found this indicator to show divergences as shown on the main chart. It also iuncludes the standard signaling system from CCI allowing you to define overbought and oversold zones. This indicator is freely available for anyone from the public library.
🚀 Crypto-Sticks General Info
💭This series isnt polished 100%, and I have some more options I will add in the future. But for now, I want to just release them, as I am not sure when I will have the time to put more work into them (many other big projects I am working on).
📊Its basically reinterpretations of all your favorite indicators. I calculate the values a little bit differently than normal, but the end result is creating a candlestick chart (for the indicator!). Then I added the option to plot them as Heiken Ashi candles to smooth out noise and make signaling easier. Here's how it looks as Heiken Ashi:
🔊Lastly I implemented a Volume Weighting system for them all which simply integrates volume into the formulas for these indicators. For the most part this feature is experimental and doesn't provide huge utility (yet - I have other ways I want to try it as well - just no time). Though on some of the indicators it already shows great promise. Here is Volume Weighted + Heiken Ashi:
👍Enjoying this indicator or find it useful? Please give me a like and follow! There are many more indicators to be released in this series, not to mention I post crypto analysis and other free indicators regularly.

Multi Time Frame VolumeThis is a standard Volume indicator with options to allow different configurable daily and weekly MA length. All other chart time frame (besides daily and weekly) will be using the default MA length value.
On top of the configurable daily and weekly MA length, a dot is displayed for volume x% > current MA length. This is to indicate institutional buying when volume is above certain %.
Default, daily and weekly MA length are configurable. % of increase above the MA length is also configurable. Here are the default value, Default = 20, Daily MA length = 50, Weekly MA length = 10, Institutional Purchase (blue dot) = 40%.
Ultimate Money Flow (UMF), Stoch, Multi Time Frame (MTF) [cI8DH]This indicator adds stochastic, multi time frame, signal line, histogram, and bar coloring options to my previous indicators. It can also replicate standard Money Flow Index ( MFI ), Chaikin's Accumulation/Distribution Line ( ADL ), On Balance Volume ( OBV ) and Price-Volume Trend ( PVT ). This indicator can be used for analyzing momentum, buy/sell pressure, overbought/oversold conditions, and trendiness/choppiness, as well as identifying swings (stoch). Chart below shows example multi-TF setup with bar coloring.
For analyzing price, I made a similar indicator based on Absolute and Relative Strength Indices, which you can find in the link below.
Equation
Here is part of the code used in the script: pastebin.com
Standard MFI, OBV, ADL and PVT
To validate the calculations, I stacked UMF on MFI, OBV, ADL, and PVT in the chart below (100% overlaps validate the calculations). It also shows how you can replicate these indicator if you'd like to use them, or if you want to make your own custom indicator by combining features from different indicators. I do not recommend MFI, ADL or OBV; read "why invent a new indicator" section below. (bear in mind that MFI scale is 0-100, while UMF scales is -100 to 100)
Money Flow based on "Balance of Power" (this is the default mode)
Balance of Power (BoP) equation is: (close - open) / (high - low)
In my opinion, BoP is the most accurate equation to measure the amount of volume accumulated or distributed. I used BoP in my previous open source indicators ADV , ADL , ADP and ADMF . I applied the "True Range" fix to BoP equation similar to what Twiggs did on CMF .
Aggregation Method
By changing aggregation methods, you can replicate my previous indicators which are also linked at the bottom of this page. Please read more about their applications in their respective pages.
aggregation method = Cumulative => ADL indicator: accumulation/distribution (price factoring should be turned off)
aggregation method = MA => ADMF indicator: accurate buy/sell pressure, momentum and divergence
aggregation method = MA Percent => ADP indicator: overbought/oversold conditions, buy/sell pressure, momentum and divergence, failure swings
Smoothing, signal line and histogram to detect trend and choppiness
You can apply additional smoothing to UMF. Also, you can add a signal line and histogram (histogram is the difference between main line and signal line). To do so, set the signal length to a number greater than one. Signal line can help you detect changes in trend similar to the signal line on MACD. If signal line criss-crosses UMF, it shows market is choppy. The worst case is when this criss-crossing coincides with UMF flattening near neutral line and histogram height is short; that means market is ded (until it is not; expansion following a contraction period is a common phenomena)! (Bear in mind that histogram will not show in stoch mode.)
Stochastic
To enable stoch, change the stoch length to a number greater than 1 (default stoch length for the built-in stoch RSI is 14). This length should be calibrated depending on TF and asset. If done correctly, it can be a powerful tool for identifying swings. Stoch can be combined with any aggregation method. I recommend using stoch with MA or cumulative aggregation methods. For conventional uses of stochastic, please read www.tradingview.com(STOCH) and www.tradingview.com(STOCH_RSI).
Experimental Bar coloring Feature
There is an option to color bars depending on UMF's position relative to the signal line. If both TFs are used in coloring and they are in disagreement, the TF with greater histogram height wins. There are two shades of green and red. The darker shade means both TFs agree. If you use the signal line, bar coloring can help with calibrating the indicator (play with parameters until you see a good looking chart i.e. a lot of green candles followed by a lot of red candles in a row). Please note that bar colors might change until candle(s) close(s). The bar coloring rules will most likely change in the future.
Notes
- Uncheck "Factor Price" for Bitmex or any other exchange that shows volume in terms of money.
- UMF is a replacement to ADP , ADMF and ADL , so no more updates for the old indicators!
- Smooth MA length N = EMA length 2*N-1
- Combined tickers, e.g. (COINBASE:BTCUSD+BITSTAMP:BTCUSD+KRAKEN:XBTUSD)/3, can mitigate inconsistency issues between different exchanges (I recommend not mixing USD and USDT pairs together)
Why invent a new indicator
I have spent a great deal of time to find the best equation that represents accumulation/distribution. Each of the well-known methods have a major flaw.
- Winner-take-all problem
MFI, OBV and to some extent Williams AD assign accumulation or distribution based on the direction of change in price. They don't account for the amount of change. That means the indicator does not differentiate between a full candle and a doji candle.
- Extreme divergence problem
Chaikin tried to avoid winner-take-all problem. However, he ended up with a solution that, in my opinion, is even worse. A big flaw of Chaikin's indicators is that they can diverge too much from price. Most responsive indicators in this class, require at least two candles to diverge from price, but CMF/ADL can diverge in a single candle. Chaikin used the same component ( aka Chaikin's money flow multiplier) in both CMF and ADL. CMF 's flaws may not be as visible because it is a normalized oscillator. However, this common flaw is more evident in accum/dist indicator which keeps all past information in its memory. As you can see in the chart below, accum/dist is constantly rising during an obviously distribution period.

Volume spikesSimple indicator which shows volume spikes.
By default spike is defined as such when volume is 2 times higher than average volume for last 10 volume bars (this can be changed in settings)
Also instead of using average volume (SMA is used in this case) you can use WMA or EMA by changing settings
Volumezones-mtfso adding MTF function to the volumezone indicator make it nicer
i suggest that you play with setting untul you find best optimazation (here it set to one hour graph with 120 min time frame)
you can put the exit on 90 instead of 70 for better result
so have fun
Institucional VolumeAccording to Anna Colling, we should analyze the spreads together with the volume "VSA", the work in this script was to make the study of the volume of visual form, in this way we focus only on the candle spread, since the volume is represented by colors and their respective activities
Red Candles = Ultra High Volume
Orange Candles = Very Hight Volume
Candles Yellow = Volume Hight
White Candles = normal volume
Aqua Candle = Low Volume
GapologyThis indicator can be used as a simple measure of price action tradability. It's an alternative to volume that focuses on the gaps between close and open candle prices. The bigger the gaps, the more spread and slippage you'll get when trading.

PlutusX BreakoutHello PlutusX Family,
We created this GBPUSD breakout strategy for you all. This strategy can be easily automated on your broker account. This strategy is SPECIFICALLY for people who have no time to stare at charts (like me), or do not necessarily want to learn technical analysis.
Currency Pair: GBPUSD
Time Frame: Any (H1 is better)
Trading Rules:
1- Open your chart on 08:00 AM (GMT), or 02:00AM MST.
2- This strategy will find Max & Min price to use for later, in addition to 2 t/p zones.
3- You have 2 numbers. Maximum Price & Minimum Price. Now should open 2 pending orders:
Buy Stop:
At: Maximum Price Line + 2 pips
T/P: 1st dotted line above the Maximum Price Line
T/P: 2nd dotted line above the Maximum Price Line
S/L: Minimum Price Line - 2 pips
Expiratory: Next trading day at 08:00 AM (GMT)
Sell Stop:
At: Minimum Price Line - 2 pips
T/P: 1st dotted line below the Minimum Price Line
T/P: 2nd dotted line below the Minimum Price Line
S/L: Maximum Price Line + 2 pips
Expiratory: Next trading day at 08:00 AM (GMT)
4- Now you can even turn off your computer and sleep. If any of above pending orders activated, let it touch T/P or S/L itself. It may take some hours or even some days. Please never close it manually.
Inactive pending orders will expire next trading day at 08:00 AM (GMT). At this time you should go to the first stage and repeat this cycle for the next day.

I'd recommend that you use this in addition to your technical analysis. Be aware of fundamental news such as NON-Farm, FOMC, etc. Those news sources tend to create intense volatility in the FX market and could trigger buy & sell orders simultaneously. In which, I'd suggest a technique called fading. Video on that soon.
Now that my TED Talk is over on blockchain I can be more active with the trading series and technical analysis.
Be sure to use the PlutusX EMA script that I created for BTC as well.

I created this script as a "study" with TV so that means there are now values assigned to W/L ratio or P/L. However, you can easily visualize the P/L and W/L ratio and from our count, we are experiencing a 73% win ratio with ~120% gains YoY. Not bad for an easily automated strategy.

Volume Oscillator Divergence PointerThis script points regular and optionally hidden types of bullish and bearish Volume Oscillator divergences on the chart by drawing the divergence lines and optionally labels.
Hidden divergence is disabled by default, it can be enabled over settings window.
Regular divergence is enabled by default, it can be disabled over settings window.
There is an option to display the price channel additionally.
Note : This is not a highly accurate indicator. You can use it with other indicators for confirmation.
Relative Volume - VPA / VSA / Better VolumeVolume is important.
Volume is VERY important.
But all the existing methods of volume analysis and order flow analysis fall into the same trap: they're all extremely complicated, hard to learn, and difficult for the human brain to distill down to an actual, tradable signal.
The Relative Volume Gradient Paintbars indicator seeks to address this issue by reducing and simplifying concepts from Volume Price Analaysis (VPA), Volume Spread Analysis (VSA), and Market Profile / Volume Profile into a single indication with varying levels of intensity. Rather than adding more complex symbology and cluttering up your charts with arrows and signals and lines as many volume indicators do, relative volume intuitively takes advantage of the dimension of color, and plays to your brain's automatic recognition of color intensity to highlight areas of interest on a chart where large volumes are being traded. These areas can in turn point out levels of support and resistance, or show strength in a move, exposing the actions of larger market participants that are behind a move.
The Relative Volume indicator can calculate based on a time-segmented / time-based / bar-specific average of volume, adjusting for some of the typical spikes in volume that happen at the beginning and end of a trading day; Or it can be calculated based on any length and type of moving average of volume that is desired: simple, exponential, weighted, Wilders, price-weighted, Hull, or TEMA.
This indicator does more than just normal relative share volume. It can also do relative volume-per-range. The idea behind this setting is that when more volume is being traded but very little movement is happening, this can indicate substantial support or resistance, where a lot of trades are likely being absorbed by larger operators. You can choose your own range calculation for this setting, whether you prefer True Range, high-low range, candle body range, close to close range, or any of several other custom settings.
Moreover, the levels or thresholds at which the color intensity changes are completely user-controlled, so you can adjust them upward to tune out more noise, or downward to increase the level of sensitivity. In addition, all of the colors for each of the thresholds are completely user-controlled.
We hope to see TradingView add support for Richard Arms' CandleVolume or Equivolume before too long, as well as Tick Volume or Trade Count Volume data, all of which can add a lot of power to this method of trading.
Manipulation IndicatorThis indicator is based on SMA, EMA, Volume, Price Action and more! All in order to find where the BIG BEARS & BIG BULLS are at! This big fishes are able to add huge ammounts of volume in the direction they want, and move the prices. Fact is this indicator shows if the big fish is either a bull or a bear, best entries, targets, exits, and more!
Trade with the trend, not against it

Inquires: emilianomesauribe2000@live.com
How it Works?
When the oscillator turns the background red a BIG BEAR has been found. When it turns Green a powerfull bull has been found, furthermore the blue histogram shows high ammount of volume.
The indicator has been tested on 5 min stocks. And with the default values.
JSE Wyckoff Wave Volume Code// The Stock Market Institute (SMI) describes an propriety indicator the "SMI Wyckoff Wave" for US Stocks. This code is an attempt to make a Wyckoff Wave for the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE).
// The JSE Wyckoff Wave is in a separate code. This is the code for the volume of the wave. Please see code for the JSE Wyckoff Wave which goes with this indicator.
//
// The Wave presents a normalized price for the 10 selected stocks (An Index for the 10 stocks).
// The theory is to select stocks that are widely held, market leaders, actively traded and participate in important market moves.
// This is only my attempt to select 10 stocks and a different selection can be made.
// I am not certain how SMI determine their weightings but what I have done it to equalize the Rand value of the stock volumne so that moves are of equal magnitude.
// The then provides a view of the overall condition of the market and volume flow in the market.
//
// I have used the September 2018 price to normalize the stock price for the 10 selected stocks based. The stocks and weightings can be changed periodically depending on the performance and leadership.
//
// Please, let me know if there is a better work around this.
