Split VolumeThe Split Volume indicator displays 'Upwards' and 'Downwards' volume with an additional method for distributing 'split' candle volume.
A 'split' candle is a candle whose direction is...'Split'...since the open and close are equal. (Ex. Doji)
Upwards and Downwards Volume is tracked by comparing the Open and Closes of the Lower Timeframes.
If the Close is Greater-than the Open, we track the Volume as 'Upwards' Volume.
If the Close is Less-than the Open, we track the Volume as 'Downwards' Volume.
If the Close and Open are Equal, we assume that the Volume is an even split 50/50, and track it as such.
The indicator pulls data from lower timeframes to achieve more granular Open,Close,& Volume Data
Specifically:
<5m Timeframe: 1 Second LTF
<60m Timeframe: 5 Second LTF
<1D Timeframe: 1 Minute LTF
>1D Timeframe: 60m LTF
We have also included some nice-to-have features
50% Volume Line: This line splits each columns in half, this is used as quick reference to see exactly which side the volume is on.
High Volume Candle Identification: We are detecting bars with high relative volume and coloring them on the upper chart for use as important zones.
Status Line Readouts: The Status line for this indicator is formatted for simple reading. It Reads(Left-to-Right):Total Volume, Downwards Volume, 50% Value, Upwards Volume

VWAP LEVELS [PRO]32 VWAP levels with labels and a table to help you identify quickly where current price is in relation to your favorite VWAP pivot levels. To help reduce cognitive load, 4 colors are used to show you where price is in relation to a VWAP level as well as the strength of that respective level. Ultimately, VWAP can be an invaluable source of support and resistance; in other words you'll often see price bounce off of a level (whether price is increasing or decreasing) once or multiple times and that could be an indication of a price's direction. Another way that you could utilize this indicator is to use it in confluence with other popular signals, such as an EMA crossover. Many traders will wait till a bar's close on the 5m or 10m time frame above a VWAP level (developing 1D VWAP would be a popular choice) before making a decision on a potential trade especially if price is rising above the 1D VWAP *and* there's been a recent 100 EMA cross UP of the 200 EMA. These are 2 bullish signals that you could look for before possibly entering in to a trade.
I've made this indicator extremely customizable:
⚡Each VWAP level has 2 labels: 1 "at level" and 1 "at right", each label and price can be disabled
⚡Each VWAP label has its own input for label padding. The "at right" label padding input allows you to zoom in and out of a chart without the labels moving along their respective axis. However, the "at level" label padding input doesn't work the same way once you move the label out of the "0" input. The label will move slightly when you zoom in and out
⚡Both "current" and "previous" VWAP levels have their own plot style that can be changed from circles, crosses and lines
⚡Significant figures input allows you to round a price up or down
⚡A price line that allows you to identify where price is in relation to a VWAP level
⚡A table that's color coded the same way as the labels. The labels and table cells change to 1 of 4 colors when "OC Check Mode" is enabled. This theory examines if the VWAP from the Open is above or below the VWAP from Close and if price is above or below normal VWAP (HLC3). This way we have 4 states:
Red = Strong Downtrend
Light Red = Weak Downtrend
Light = Weak Uptrend
Green = Strong Uptrend
Something to keep in mind: At the start of a new year, week or month, some levels will converge and they'll eventually diverge slowly or quickly depending on the level and/or time frame. You could add a few labels "at level" to show which levels are converging at the time. Since we're at the beginning of a new year, you'll see current month, 2 month, 3 month etc converge in to one level.
🙏Thanks to (c)MartinWeb for the inspiration behind this indicator.
🙏Thanks to (c)SimpleCryptoLife for the libraries and code to help create the labels.
Volume Exhaustion [AlgoAlpha]Introducing the Volume Exhaustion by AlgoAlpha, is an innovative tool that aims to identify potential exhaustion or peaks in trading volume , which can be a key indicator for reversals or continuations in market trends 🔶.
Key Features:
Signal Plotting : A special feature is the plotting of 'Release' signals, marked by orange diamonds, indicating points where the exhaustion index crosses under its previous value and is above a certain boundary. This could signify critical market points 🚨.
Calculation Length Customization : Users can adjust the calculation and Signal lengths to suit their trading style, allowing for flexibility in analysis over different time periods. ☝️
len = input(50, "Calculation Length")
len2 = input(8, "Signal Length")
Visual Appeal : The script offers customizable colors (col for the indicator and col1 for the background) enhancing the visual clarity and user experience 💡.
col = input.color(color.white, "Indicator Color")
col1 = input.color(color.gray, "Background Color")
Advanced Volume Processing : At its core, the script utilizes a combination of Hull Moving Average (HMA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) applied to the volume data. This sophisticated approach helps in smoothing out the volume data and reducing lag.
sv = ta.hma(volume, len)
ssv = ta.hma(sv, len)
Volume Exhaustion Detection : The script calculates the difference between the volume and its smoothed version, normalizing this value to create an exhaustion index (fff). Positive values of this index suggest potential volume exhaustion.
f = sv-ssv
ff = (f) / (ta.ema(ta.highest(f, len) - ta.lowest(f, len), len)) * 100
fff = ff > 0 ? ff : 0
Boundary and Zero Line : The script includes a boundary line (boundary) and a zero line (zero), with the area between them filled for enhanced visual interpretation. This helps in assessing the relative position of the exhaustion index.
Customizable Background : The script colors the background of the chart for better readability and to distinguish the indicator’s area clearly.
Overall, Volume Exhaustion is designed for traders who focus on volume analysis. It provides a unique perspective on volume trends and potential exhaustion points, which can be crucial for making informed trading decisions. This script is a valuable addition for traders looking to enhance their trading experience with advanced volume analysis tools.
Whalemap [BigBeluga]The Whalemap indicator aims to spot big buying and selling activity represented as big orders for a possible bottom or top formation on the chart.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator uses volume to spot big volume activity represented as big orders in the market.
for i = 0 to len - 1
blV.vol += (close > close ? volume : 0)
brV.vol += (close < close ? volume : 0)
When volume exceeds its own threshold, it is a sign that volume is exceeding its normal value and is considered as a "Whale order" or "Whale activity," which is then plotted on the chart as circles.
🔶 DETAILS
The indicator plots Bubbles on the chart with different sizes indicating the buying or selling activity. The bigger the circle, the more impact it will have on the market.
On each circle is also plotted a line, and its own weight is also determined by the strength of its own circle; the bigger the circle, the bigger the line.
Old buying/selling activity can also be used for future support and resistance to spot interesting areas.
The more price enters old buying/selling activity and starts producing orders of the same direction, it might be an interesting point to take a closer look.
🔶 EXAMPLES
The chart above is showing us price reacting to big orders, finding good bottoms in price and good tops in confluence with old activity.
🔶 SETTINGS
Users will have the options to:
Filter options to adjust buying and selling sensitivity.

Order Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Volumized Order Blocks indicator! This new indicator can render order blocks with their volumetric information. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Volumized Order Blocks indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Order Blocks
Enable / Disable Volumetric Information
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
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 formations on the chart.
The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenario, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.
🚩UNIQUENESS
The ability to render the total volume of Order Blocks as well as bullish / bearish volume ratio is what sets this Order Block indicator apart from others. Also the ability to combine overlapping Order Block zones will result in cleaner charts for traders.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Volumetric Info -> The volumetric information of the Order Blocks will be rendered if activated.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
Breaker Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Volumized Breaker Blocks indicator! This new indicator can render breaker blocks with their volumetric information. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Volumized Breaker Block indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Breaker Blocks
Enable / Disable Volumetric Information
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Breaker blocks form when an order block fails, or "breaks". It is often associated with market going in the opposite direction of the broken order block, and they can be spotted by following order blocks and finding the point they get broken, ie. price goes below a bullish order block.
The volume of a breaker block is simply the total volume of the bar that the original order block is broken.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator can not only detect breaker blocks, but it can also detect them with their volumetric information. Volumetric information can be crucial when considering an breaker block's strength, which can be a crucial form of confluence in certain trading strategies.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Volumetric Info -> The volumetric information of the Breaker Blocks will be rendered if activated.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Breaker Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding breaker block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller breaker blocks.
Saty Volume StackBreaks volume into buy and sell volume and stacks them based on which side has higher volume.
Dynamic Buy / Sell Stack
Unlike other buy/sell volume indicators, which statically display this information (typically green over red), this indicator dynamically stacks the higher volume side on top. For example, green over red indicates more buy-side volume, red over green indicators more sell-side volume.
Current Candle Volume Buy/Sell %
A label shows the % buy vs sell volume for the current candle in real-time. This label is also dynamic with the left position being higher volume.
How the Buy/Sell Volume is Calculated
Buy/Sell % is calculated based on price.
Buy % is calculated using the distance between the low of the candle to the closing value of the candle and dividing that by the total range of the candle high to low.
Sell % is calculated using the distance between the high of the candle to the closing value of the candle and dividing that by the total range of the candle high to low.
Please note this is a proxy metric and while it is incredibly useful, it is not going to match up exactly with actual buy/sell volume that can be found on tape.

Rolling VWAP [QuantraSystems]Rolling VWAP
Introduction
The Rolling VWAP (R͜͡oll-VWAP) indicator modernizes the traditional VWAP by recalculating continuously on a rolling window, making it adept at pinpointing market trends and breakout points.
Its dual functionality includes both the dynamic rolling VWAP and a customizable anchored VWAP, enhanced by color-coded visual cues, thereby offering traders valuable flexibility and insight for their market analysis.
Legend
In the Image you can see the BTCUSD 1D Chart with the R͜͡oll-VWAP overlay.
You can see the individually activatable Standard Deviation (SD) Bands and the main VWAP Line.
It also features a Trend Signal which is deactivated by default and can be enabled if required.
Furthermore you can find the coloring of the VWAP line to represent the Trend.
In this case the trend itself is defined as:
Close being greater than the VWAP line -> Uptrend
Close below the VWAP line -> Downtrend
Notes
The R͜͡oll-VWAP can be used in a variety of ways.
Volatility adjusted expected range
This aims to identify in which range the asset is likely to move - according to the historical values the SD Bands are calculated and thus their according probabilities displayed.
Trend analysis
Trending above or below the VWAP shows up or down trends accordingly.
S/R Levels
Based on the probability distribution the 2. SD often works as a Resistance level and either mid line or 1. SD lines can act as S/R levels
Unsustainable levels
Based on the probability distributions a SD level of beyond 2.5, especially 3 and higher is hit very seldom and highly unsustainable.
This can either mean a mean reversion state or a momentum slowdown is necessary to get back to a sustainable level.
Please note that we always advise to find more confluence by additional indicators.
Traders are encouraged to test and determine the most suitable settings for their specific trading strategies and timeframes.
Methodology
The R͜͡oll-VWAP is based on the inbuilt TV VWAP.
It expands upon the limitations of having an anchored timeframe and thus a limited data set that is being reset constantly.
Instead we have integrated a rolling nature that continuously calculates the VWAP over a customizable lookback.
To also keep the base utility it is possible to use the anchored timeframes as well.
Furthermore the visualization has been improved and we added the coloring of the main VWAP line according to the Trend as stated above.
The applicable Trend signals are also part of that.
The parameter settings and also the visualizations allow for ample customizations by the trader.
For questions or recommendations, please feel free to seek contact in the comments.
Intraday Volume Profile [BigBeluga]The Intraday Volume Profile aims to show delta volume on lower timeframes to spot trapped shorts at the bottom or trapped longs at the top, with buyers pushing the price up at the bottom and sellers at the top acting as resistance.
🔶 FEATURES
The indicator includes the following features:
LTF Delta precision (timeframe)
Sensibility color - adjust gradient color sensitivity
Source - source of the candle to use as the main delta calculation
Color mode - display delta coloring in different ways
🔶 DELTA EXAMPLE
In the image above, we can see how delta is created.
If delta is positive, we know that buyers have control over sellers, while if delta is negative, we know sellers have control over buyers.
Using this data, we can spot interesting trades and identify trapped individuals within the candle.
🔶 HOW TO USE
In the image above, we can see how shorts are trapped at the bottom of the wick (red + at the bottom), leading to a pump also called a "short squeeze."
Same example as before, but with trapped longs (blue + at the top).
This can also work as basic support and resistance, for example, trapped shorts at the bottom with positive delta at the bottom acting as strong support for price.
Users can have the option to also display delta data within the corresponding levels, showing Buyers vs Sellers for more precise trading ideas.
NOTE:
User can only display the most recent data for the last 8 buyers and sellers.
It is recommended to use a hollow candle while using this script.
VWAP RangeThe VWAP Range indicator is a highly versatile and innovative tool designed with trading signals for trading the supply and demand within consolidation ranges.
What's a VWAP?
A VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) represents an equilibrium point in the market, balancing supply and demand over a specified period. Unlike simple moving averages, VWAP gives more weight to periods with higher volume. This is crucial because large volumes indicate significant trading activity, often by institutional traders, whose actions can reflect deeper market insights or create substantial market movements. The VWAP is also often used as a benchmark to evaluate the efficiency of executed trades. If a trader buys below the VWAP and sells above it, they are generally considered to have transacted favourably.
This is how it works:
Multiple VWAP Anchors:
This indicator uses multiple VWAPs anchored to different optional time periods, such as Daily, Weekly, Monthly, as well as to the highest high a lowest low within those periods. This multiplicity allows for a comprehensive view of the market’s average price based on volume and price, tailored to different trading styles and strategies.
Dynamic and Fixed Periods:
Traders can choose between using dynamic ranges, which reset at the start of each selected period, and specifying a date and time for a particular fixed range to trade. This flexibility is crucial for analyzing price movements within specific ranges or market phases.
Fixed ranges allow VWAPs to be calculated and anchored to a significant market event, the beginning of a consolidation phase or after a major news announcement.
Signal Generation:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the relationship of the price to the VWAPs. It also allows for setting a maximum number of signals in one direction to avoid overtrading or pyramiding. Be sure to wait for the candle close before trading on the signals.
Average Buy/Sell Signal Lines:
Lines can be plotted to display the average buy and sell signal prices. The difference between the lines shows the average profit per trade when trading on the signals in that range. It's a good way to see how profitable a range is on average without backtesting the signals. The lines will also often turn into support and resistance areas, similar to value areas in a volume profile.
Customizable Settings:
Traders have control over various settings, such as the VWAP calculation method and bar color. There are also tooltips for every function.
Hidden Feature:
There's a subtle feature in this indicator: if you have 'Indicator values' turned on in TradingView, you'll see a Sell/Buy Ratio displayed only in the status line. This ratio indicates whether there are more sell signals than buy signals in a range, regardless of the Max Signals setting. A red value above 1 suggests that the market is trending upward, indicating you might want to hold your long positions a bit longer. Conversely, a green value below 1 implies a downward trend.
MCV - Meme Coin Volume [Logue]Meme Coin Volume. Investor preference for meme coin trading may signal irrational exuberance in the crypto market. If a large spike in meme coin volume is observed, a top may be near. Therefore, the volume of the most popular meme coins was added together in this indicator to help indicate potential mania phases, which may signal nearing of a top. A simple moving average of the meme coin volume also helps visualize the trend while reducing the noise. In back testing, I found a 10-day sma of the meme coin volume works well.
Meme coins were not traded heavily prior to 2020. Therefore, there is only one cycle to test at the time of initial publication. Also, the meme coin space moves fast, so more meme coins may need to be added later.
The total volume is plotted along with a moving average of the volume. For the indicator, you are able to change the raw volume trigger line, the sma trigger line, and the period (daily) of the sma to your own preferences. The raw volume or sma going above their respective trigger lines will print a different background color.
Use this indicator at your own risk. I make no claims as to its accuracy in forecasting future trend changes of Bitcoin or the crypto market.
Short Interest Tracker [SS]This is a simple indicator that is designed to provide you with a synopsis of short interest on the daily, weekly and monthly timeframes.
How it works:
It pulls FINRA ticker data on short volume for whichever ticker you are on. It works with all tickers provided they are listed on FINRA (which is all tickers).
It will not work with futures, for futures, you would want to use a COT-based indicator, but for indices and equities, this indicator will provide you with the short volume information.
What it shows:
It breaks short volume down into current short volume, the 14-period SMA of short volume over the day, week and month, it also provides you with a short volume to SMA ratio. This is Short Volume divided by the SMA. Anything below 1 is good, it means short interest is low. Anything above 1 is not good, it means that short volume is above the SMA.
It also will show you the weekly, daily and monthly short volume change.
And last but not least, it will tell you whether short interest is falling, rising or steady. How it does this is by tracking whether the SMA is increasing, decreasing or stagnant.
Customization:
You can customize the SMA length and the assessment of whether short volume is increasing or decreasing. The default SMA length is 14 and the default assessment of rising/falling short volume is 4. This means, short volume has to rise or fall over a 4-period timeframe for it to register. So on the week, if it displays short volume increasing, it means that, over the past 4 weeks, the sma has steadily risen. Inverse if it decreases. If you want it to be more sensitive, you can reduce it to 2 or 3. If you want it to be more strict, you can increase it to 5 or 6.
NOTE:
If the volume information for a ticker is not available, it will return a runtime error indicating as such.
And that's the indicator!
I wanted something similar to COT data for equities and indices, so this was my attempt to bridge that gap.
Hope you enjoy and find it useful! Leave your suggestions below.
Take care everyone!
Modified On Balance VolumeModified On Balance Volume (mOBV) Indicator
The "Modified On Balance Volume" (mOBV) indicator is designed to provide insights into the cumulative buying and selling pressure in the market, with modifications for close, high, and low prices. It incorporates On Balance Volume (OBV) calculations for each of these price types and further refines the analysis by applying Simple Moving Averages (SMA).
Key Features:
Calculation of OBV for Close, High, and Low Prices:
Traditional OBV values are computed for close, high, and low prices, reflecting the cumulative volume based on the sign of price changes.
SMA Smoothing:
Simple Moving Averages (SMA) are applied to the calculated OBV values, introducing a smoothing effect to highlight trends in the buying and selling pressure.
Relative Values for High and Low OBV:
The script transforms the OBV values for high and low prices into relative values compared to the SMA of the OBV for close prices.
User-Defined SMA Length:
Users can customize the length of the SMA through a parameter, allowing flexibility in adapting the indicator to different market conditions.
Error Handling:
The script includes a mechanism to detect if no volume data is provided by the data vendor, alerting users to potential issues with the dataset.
Visual Representation:
The calculated OBV values for close, high, and low prices, as well as the SMA of the OBV for close prices, are visually represented on the chart with customizable colors and transparency settings.
Usage Tips:
Rising values indicate increasing buying pressure, while falling values suggest increasing selling pressure.
Crosses between the OBV lines and the SMA line may be used to identify potential trend changes.
Note:
This script is intended for informational purposes and should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for comprehensive market analysis.
Best scalping toolExplanation:
This script is a comprehensive indicator that combines three essential technical analysis tools: Money Flow Index (MFI), Relative Strength Index (RSI), and Bollinger Bands (Bollinger %B). It provides insights into market conditions related to cross points of mfi,rsi and B%B.
A buy condition is created when the last candle RSI and MFI are under the bollinger bands, and then in the actual candle the RSI cross up the bollinger low band.
A sell condition is created when the last candle RSI and MFI are above the bollinger bands, and then in the actual candle the RSI cross down the bollinger high band.
Key Components:
MFI (Money Flow Index):
Utilizes the MFI indicator based on a specified length.
Overbought and oversold levels (80 and 20, respectively).
RSI (Relative Strength Index): (Adapted to the mfi chart)
Allows selection of different moving average types (SMA, EMA, etc.) for the RSI calculation.
RSI along with upper and lower bands (70 and 30).
Bollinger Bands:
Provides upper and lower Bollinger Bands based on the RSI's standard deviation.
Visualization Options:
Allows the user to choose between show the buy (green arrow) and the sell (red arrow) .
How It Works:
The indicator amalgamates these three powerful technical indicators to help traders identify potential entry or exit points. The green arrow its a buy signal and the red arrow is a sell signal.
By offering configurable settings and clear visual cues, this indicator assists traders in recognizing critical market conditions and potential trading opportunities.
Disclaimer: This indicator should be used as a tool in a broader trading strategy and not solely for making trading decisions. It's recommended to combine it with other technical or fundamental analysis for comprehensive trading decisions.
Volume Heatmap 2024 | NXT2017 Christmas EditionHi big players around the world,
I wish you a merry christmas time.
Today I have a nice present for you: a new volume heatmap indicator for free using!
HISTORY
My first volume heatmap project got a lot of feedback and a big demand. You can find it here:
In this time pinescript version 4 was the newest one and I worked the first time with arrays.
Today we have pinescript version 5 and some new features. This is why I tried again with matrix function and the results are better than I expected.
HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates similar like the volume profile. It looks back and every volume where the close price is on the same row area, the volume will cumulated. How much rows the new chart view is showing, you can choose manually.
The mind behind this is to find high volume levels, where high volume catch the price in a range or get function as support/resistance line.
PICTURES
I hope it helps for your trading. You are welcome to give some comments.
Merry christmas and best regards

Volume Points of Control and No Control [NariCapitalTrading]Overview:
The "Volume Points of Control and No Control" (VPOC/VPONC) is a trading indicator/concept I designed to identify key price levels based on volume activity. It shows (on the price label on the y-axis) where there was the most (red) and the least (blue) volume over a specified lookback period. Read below for interpretation.
Key Features:
Identifies key price levels based on volume
Customizable lookback period and trade timeframe
Plots Volume Point of Control (VPOC) and Volume Point of No Control (VPONC)
Inputs and Calculations:
Custom Trade Timeframe: Allows users to set the desired timeframe for analysis (e.g., Daily, Weekly).
Lookback Period: Users can specify the period over which to analyze volume data.
VPOC Calculation: Determines the price level with the highest volume within the lookback period.
VPONC Calculation: Finds the price level with the lowest volume within the lookback period.
Indicator Usage:
The VPOC is considered a significant level where traders have shown the most interest, often acting as a strong support or resistance level. The VPONC, conversely, is a concept I made up. It represents a price level where 1) in an trending market, this price was accepted quickly, thus suggesting continuation of an trend. 2) price retracements will typically revisit thinly-traded price areas, the VPONC can sometimes signal an area of support in a downtrend.
Chart Representation:
VPOC Label: Plotted on the y-axis in red, indicating the price level with the highest volume.
VPONC Label: Displayed on the y-axis in blue, showing the price level with the least volume.
These labels are dynamically updated based on the user-specified lookback period and trade timeframe.
Enhanced Cumulative Volume Delta [NariCapitalTrading]Enhanced Cumulative Volume Delta (eCVD) Technical Guide
Introduction
The Enhanced Cumulative Volume Delta (eCVD) is a technical indicator in trading that measures the cumulative difference between buying and selling volume over a user-defined period. It helps in understanding market sentiment by showing whether buyers or sellers dominate.
Calculation
Inputs
Period : Number of bars for cumulative volume calculation (default: 14).
MA Period : Period for the moving average of eCVD (default: 20).
Volume Delta Calculation
Buying Volume (buyVolChange) : Counted as buying volume if the current close is greater than the previous.
Selling Volume (sellVolChange) : Counted as selling volume if the current close is less than the previous.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)
Cumulative buying ( cumBuyVol ) and selling volumes ( cumSellVol ) are calculated.
Every period bars, these cumulative volumes are reset.
eCVD is the difference between cumulative buying and selling volumes.
CVD Moving Average
Simple Moving Average (SMA) of eCVD calculated over maPeriod .
Interpretation
eCVD Histogram
Plotted as a histogram.
Color Coding :
Green : Positive eCVD (more buying volume).
Red : Negative eCVD (more selling volume).
Black : No significant difference between buying and selling volume.
CVD Moving Average
Moving average line (yellow) indicates eCVD trend direction and strength.
Application
Trend Confirmation : Rising eCVD suggests an uptrend; falling eCVD suggests a downtrend.
Divergence : Opposite movements in price and eCVD can indicate potential reversals.
Volume Analysis : High eCVD values signal high trading activity, significant at market extremes.
Conclusion
The eCVD can be used to analyze buyer/seller dynamics through volume. It should be used alongside other methods for informed trading decisions.
Liquidity Weighted Moving Averages [AlgoAlpha]Description:
The Liquidity Weighted Moving Averages by AlgoAlpha is a unique approach to identifying underlying trends in the market by looking at candle bars with the highest level of liquidity. This script offers a modified version of the classical MA crossover indicator that aims to be less noisy by using liquidity to determine the true fair value of price and where it should place more emphasis on when calculating the average.
Rationale:
It is common knowledge that liquidity makes it harder for market participants to move the price of assets, using this logic, we can determine the coincident liquidity of each bar by looking at the volume divided by the distance between the opening and closing price of that bar. If there is a higher volume but the opening and closing prices are near each other, this means that there was a high level of liquidity in that bar. We then use standard deviations to filter out high spikes of liquidity and record the closing prices on those bars. An average is then applied to these recorded prices only instead of taking the average of every single bar to avoid including outliers in the data processing.
Key features:
Customizable:
Fast Length - the period of the fast-moving average
Slow Length - the period of the slow-moving average
Outlier Threshold Length - the period of the outlier processing algorithm to detect spikes in liquidity
Significant Noise reduction from outliers:
Volume Profile Histogram [SS]I usually (and by usually, I mean the past year xD) release a significant indicator as my Christmas gift to the community on Christmas Eve. Last year, it was the Z-Score buy and sell signal; this year, it's something a little more conventional. So here is this year’s gift—hope you like it! 🎁
Seems like everyone has their take on Volume Profiles (aka SVP or VSP). I decided to create one, and in true Steversteves fashion, you can expect to find all the goodies that come with most of my stuff, including a volume profile presented in a bell-curve/histogram style (chart above) and statistical frequency tables showing the cases by ranges:
And it wouldn't be a true Steversteves indicator without some kind of ATR thing:
So, what does it do?
At the end of the day, it is a form of an SVP indicator. However, it is meant to operate on a larger scale, sorting volume in a traditional bell-curve style. In addition to displaying volume, it breaks down buying vs. selling volume. Selling volume is classified as such when the open is greater than close, while buying is when close is greater than open. This breakdown allows you to see the distribution, by price range, of where selling and buying occur.
This permits the indicator to provide 2 Points of Control (POCs). A POC is defined as an area of high volume activity. Because buying and selling volumes are broken down into two, we can identify areas with high selling and areas with high buying. Sometimes they coincide, sometimes they differ.
If we look at SQQQ, for example:
We can see that the bearish point of control is one point below the bullish POC. This is interesting because it essentially shows where people may be "panic selling" or setting their stop-outs. If SQQQ drops below 18.8, then it's likely to trigger panic selling, as indicated by the histogram.
Conversely, we can observe that traders tend to position long between $18 and $24. The POC is noted in the stats table and also displayed on the chart. Bullish POC is shown in purple, bearish in yellow. These, of course, can be toggled off.
The Frequency Table:
The frequency table shows how many observations were obtained in each price range. The histogram illustrates the cumulative volume traded, while the frequency simply counts how many cases occurred over the lookback period.
ATR Range Analytics by Volume:
The indicator also has the ability to display range analytics by volume. When you toggle on the range analytics by volume option, a range chart will appear:

The range chart goes from the minimum recorded volume to the maximum recorded volume in the period, showing the average range and direction associated with this volume. This is crucial to pay attention to because not all stocks behave the same way.
For example, in the chart above (AMD), we can see that low volume produces a general bearish bias, and high volume produces a general bullish bias. However, if we look at the range analytics for SPY:
Low volume has the inverse effect. Low volume is associated with a more bullish bias, and high volume indicates a more bearish bias. In the ATR chart, the threshold volume to transition from bullish bias to bearish bias is approximately > 78,607,268 traded shares.
The Stats Table:
The stats table can be toggled on or off. It simply displays the POCs and the time range for the VSP. The default time range is 1 trading year (252 days), assuming you are on the daily timeframe. However, you can use this on any timeframe.
The percentages displayed in the histogram is the cumulative percent of buying and selling volume independently. So when you see the percentage on the selling histogram, its the percent of cumulative selling only. Same for the buying.
And that's the indicator! I hope you enjoy it. Let me know your thoughts. I hope you all have safe holidays, a Merry Christmas for you North Americans, and a Happy Christmas for you UKers, and whatever else you celebrate/care about and do! Safe trades, everyone, and enjoy your holidays! 🎁🎄🎄🎄⭐⭐⭐ 🕎 🕎 🕎
Z-Scored Volume [KFB Quant]The Z-Scored Volume (CSV) indicator is designed to make it easier to identity potential market extremes.
What is the Z-Score?
The Z-Score is a statistical measure that quantifies how far a particular data point is from the mean of a group of data. It's expressed in terms of standard deviations from the mean.
How to calculate the Z-Score?
Z-Score = (Value - Mean) / StDev
How the script works
In this script we calculate the Z-Score of the charts volume.
We get the Mean of the predefined period in the Length Configuration tab by using the ta.sma function.
We get the StDev of the predefined period in the Length Configuration tab by using the ta.stdev function.
The default period is 360.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. This indicator is for informational & educational purposes only.
VDVA - Volume Delta Volatility AmplifierThis script defines an indicator named VDVA (Volume Delta Volatility Amplifier), which combines volume delta (the difference between volume up and volume down) and volatility (ATR) into one line. This line is then smoothed using a moving average and compared with the zero level and a shorter-period moving average. The script also plots shapes when the rate of change of the line exceeds the first standard deviation. Moreover, the script uses Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels to determine the squeeze condition, which is a signal of a potential breakout. Finally, the script plots two bar charts that show the volume up and volume down multiplied by ATR.
dark green line - bullish
light green line - potential bearish
dark red line - bearish
light red line - potential bullish
blue cloud - bullish
yellow cloud - bearish
red triangle - bearish entry
green triangle - bullish entry
purple cross - squeeze
True VolumeThis indicator is designed to provide in-depth analysis of volume data from multiple sources and distinguish highly liquid candles by measuring the density of the volume. By focusing on the density and concentration of volume, rather than just the volume itself, it offers a more nuanced view of the market. This can be particularly beneficial in markets like cryptocurrencies, where understanding the role of market makers versus retail traders is crucial for strategic trading.
This is how it works:
Multiple Asset Integration:
Unlike standard volume indicators, True Volume allows the inclusion of up to four different assets (or the same asset from various exchanges) into its volume calculations. This feature provides a broader and more accurate total volume representation, essential in markets like cryptocurrencies where volume is dispersed across multiple exchanges.
Adjustable Time Anchors:
It offers various time anchor options, allowing traders to analyze volume data over different time periods or a specific amount of lookback candles. This flexibility helps in understanding volume trends over both short and long-term time frames.
Volume Density Analysis:
The core of this indicator is the innovative concept of Volume Density. It's calculated using a sigmoid function that normalizes the volume-to-price movement ratio in a unique way without needing a max cap or having the density column spike off the chart. This method helps in distinguishing between normal volume fluctuations and those that are unusually dense for the given price movement. This distinction is key in identifying potential market maker activities.
The Visuals:
The Volume Density is displayed in a unique way without compromising the original volume bars or cap the density. Infinite density can essentially be represented without having an infinitely large bar or caping out the density data. There's also two different color themes, optional bar color, and an option to flip the density bars up-side down for a different representation. Each of the original volume sources can be displayed separately as well. All colors as customizable as well for your own preference.
Price Volume Trend (PVT):
Included in this indicator is also the Price Volume Trend, which cumulatively measures the density delta, offering insights into the longer-term momentum of the market.
How do I trade it?
This indicator aims to give you insight into 'the other side of the trade', the Market Makers. When you buy, they provide liquidity by selling to you. That drives the Volume Density up.
Consider whether the market maker is currently long or short and might need to cover their position by wicking price back, or "adjust inventory". Especially towards the end of a market session.
Consider dense candles during market gaps or weekends to be market manipulation moves.
The density also goes up when stop losses are hit. If price makes a higher high or lower low, high density could indicate a liquidation event.
