Volume Profile and Volume Indicator by DGT 

Bitcoin / TetherUSBinance

Huraian

Volume Profile (also known as Price by Volume) is an charting study that displays trading activity over a specified time period at specific price levels. It is plotted as a horizontal histogram on the finacial isntrumnet's chart that highlights the trader's interest at specific price levels.

The histogram is used by traders to predict areas of support and resistance. Price levels where the traded volume is high could be assumed as support and resistance levels.

Price may experience difficulty moving above or below areas with large bars. Usually there is a great deal of activity on both the buy and sell side and the market stays at that price level for a great deal of time

It is advised to use volume profile in conjunction with other forms of technical analysis to maximize the odds of success

Light version of Volume Profile is added to Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGT

* updated to Interactive mode
Instead of specifying lookback length value from input widgets, you can now select locations of your interest by clicking on the chart. Just as with the drawing tool simply drag the line, that apears on the chart when clicked on the indicator plotting area, to whereever you need to position the starting point of calculations
please note, while switch between timeframes you may need to adjust the location in case the plotting is damaged

* alert added when Price touches/crosses Point Of Control Line, note that this may result with many alerts triggered when price hovers around the PoC Line

* vertical offset is added for volume histogrm

thnaks to pine team's update now visable range option is available. default option is fixed range, the users can control the behaviour using the 'lookback range' option of the script

When visibale range is selected, then as the user zooms on their chart – causing the range of visible bars on the chart to change – the script will automatically re-calculate and visuals can adapt to the new context

major update

🔹 core functionality enhancements
  • usage of lower timeframe data: added the ability to benefit from lower timeframe data, hence allowing to increase the accuracy of the created profiles

🔹 new features of the indicator
  • supply and demand zones
  • developing point of control
  • new polarity method: buying/selling pressure


and some other enchantments requested/reported by the users. thanks to all for sharing their valuable comments to make this script even better

volume profile is a charting tool that truly does have a wide array of uses. the data that is provided by the volume profile is indisputable, leaving it to the trader to find new and creative ways to use it.

@dgtrd, Hi! Awesome indicator. I started using it and I actually started earning money! Thank you! However, this is the reason of why I started to pay attention to how this indicator works. And I can't figure out one thing: why exactly the bull/bear dominance differs on one timeframe from another. Given that the indicator captures the same trading area and excludes any additional candles from the captured area on both timeframes.

It's hard to explain without pictures, if you're interested in a discussion please write me to telegram @neron_lordoff or mail pxlens@gmail.com. Or any other platform that supports sharing pictures - whatever comfortable for you, I'm really willing to figure this out, got screenshots prepared :)

thank you @pxlens, i get you point, the diiference arises from the candles.
This study is build on assumption, a bullish candle is considered upVolume and bearish candle downVolume, hence the difference arises.
For same time interval (not length) the lower the timeframe the closer the approximation of the result, more details. Like the candles themself on higher time frame you have lets say a sngle bullish candle but when you switch to lower timeframe for the same time interval you get more candles and some are bullish some bearish
please try to test with 'Volume Profile - Custom Range' which keeps time range still when you swithc between timeframes
please find here my comment to the guy who suggested having this feature : tradingview.com/script/Qwj6TO5I-Volume-Profile-and-Volume-Indicator-by-DGT/

it will worth to explain this also in the tooltips of the indicator, thnak you for the feedback with you observations
pxlens
@dgtrd, ah I see! Thank you for the explanation, best wishes!

dgtrd
thnak you very much @RDreesmann 💙

is you sugestion to have single profile starting from Day, Week or Month? or it is have multiple profiles showing each day, Week or Month separetly?
RDreesmann

dgtrd
