How the Script Works
🔹 1. Calculating Buy and Sell Volume
The calculate_buy_sell function separates buy and sell volume based on the candle's open and close price:

If the closing price is higher than the opening price → Buy volume 📈.
If the closing price is lower or equal to the opening price → Sell volume 📉.
🔹 2. Retrieving Volume Data Across Multiple Timeframes
The function get_volumes collects buy and sell volume data for different timeframes using request.security().
The available timeframes are: 1m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, and 1d.

🔹 3. Calculating Volume Moving Averages
The script uses ta.sma() to compute moving averages for volume trends:

ma_vol_short: Short-term moving average (e.g., 5 periods).
ma_vol_long: Long-term moving average (e.g., 14 periods).
🔹 4. Creating and Displaying the Dashboard
A table (table.new()) is generated at the last bar (barstate.islast) to display the volume data:

A title “📊 Volume Dashboard (Buy vs Sell)” in purple.
Column headers:
TIMEFRAME (e.g., 1M, 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H, 1D).
BUY VOLUME (dark blue).
SELL VOLUME (dark red).
Buy and Sell Volume values are displayed in their respective cells for easy reading.
