Volume Peak LineA fully configurable “Volume Peak Line” indicator that draws a horizontal threshold at the highest volume over the last X candles (default 5).
Custom lookback (X volume candles)
Optional alert when current volume exceeds that peak
Separate up/down volume bars (green/red) or hide them to use your own volume overlays
Use it to spot surges in trading activity on any timeframe—ideal for intraday or swing setups where a barn-burner volume bar can signal a reversal or the start of a new trend.
BuySell Volume Bar Chart• Separates estimated Buy and Sell volume per bar using price action logic
• Plots them in a dual-axis format: buy volume goes up, sell volume goes down
• Colors are dynamic — whichever side dominates gets the stronger color, the weaker side is shaded
• Includes a live difference metric (Δ Volume) as a third value in the indicator title
• Automatically filters out flat/no-move bars to avoid misleading spikes
The live difference metric ("Δ Volume") can be controlled.
This metric calculates the difference between the buying and selling volume live, where it takes the Buy Volume - Sell Volume.
This difference is then displayed in either green (BV > SV) or red (SV > BV). You can toggle it on/off by entering the indicator's settings or double tapping the indicator name on the TV chart.
Another pretty cool thing is the modular colors - you can customize your candle colors and shades to your liking within the code!
Delta Volume Candles [LucF]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator plots on-chart volume delta information using candles that can replace your normal candles, tops and bottoms appended to normal candles, optional MAs of those tops and bottoms levels, a divergence channel and a chart background. The indicator calculates volume delta using intrabar analysis, meaning that it uses the lower timeframe bars constituting each chart bar.
█ CONCEPTS
Volume Delta
The volume delta concept divides a bar's volume in "up" and "down" volumes. The delta is calculated by subtracting down volume from up volume. Many calculation techniques exist to isolate up and down volume within a bar. The simplest use the polarity of interbar price changes to assign their volume to up or down slots, e.g., On Balance Volume or the Klinger Oscillator . Others such as Chaikin Money Flow use assumptions based on a bar's OHLC values. The most precise calculation method uses tick data and assigns the volume of each tick to the up or down slot depending on whether the transaction occurs at the bid or ask price. While this technique is ideal, it requires huge amounts of data on historical bars, which considerably limits the historical depth of charts and the number of symbols for which tick data is available. Furthermore, historical tick data is not yet available on TradingView.
This indicator uses intrabar analysis to achieve a compromise between the simplest and most precise methods of calculating volume delta. It is currently the most precise method usable on TradingView charts. TradingView's Volume Profile built-in indicators use it, as do the CVD - Cumulative Volume Delta Candles and CVD - Cumulative Volume Delta (Chart) indicators published from the TradingView account . My Delta Volume Channels and Volume Delta Columns Pro indicators also use intrabar analysis. Other volume delta indicators such as my Realtime 5D Profile use realtime chart updates to calculate volume delta without intrabar analysis, but that type of indicator only works in real time; they cannot calculate on historical bars.
This is the logic I use to determine the polarity of intrabars, which determines the up or down slot where its volume is added:
• If the intrabar's open and close values are different, their relative position is used.
• If the intrabar's open and close values are the same, the difference between the intrabar's close and the previous intrabar's close is used.
• As a last resort, when there is no movement during an intrabar, and it closes at the same price as the previous intrabar, the last known polarity is used.
Once all intrabars making up a chart bar have been analyzed and the up or down property of each intrabar's volume determined, the up volumes are added, and the down volumes subtracted. The resulting value is volume delta for that chart bar, which can be used as an estimate of the buying/selling pressure on an instrument. Not all markets have volume information. Without it, this indicator is useless.
Intrabar analysis
Intrabars are chart bars at a lower timeframe than the chart's. The timeframe used to access intrabars determines the number of intrabars accessible for each chart bar. On a 1H chart, each chart bar of an active market will, for example, usually contain 60 bars at the lower timeframe of 1min, provided there was market activity during each minute of the hour.
This indicator automatically calculates an appropriate lower timeframe using the chart's timeframe and the settings you use in the script's "Intrabars" section of the inputs. As it can access lower timeframes as small as seconds when available, the indicator can be used on charts at relatively small timeframes such as 1min, provided the market is active enough to produce bars at second timeframes.
The quantity of intrabars analyzed in each chart bar determines:
• The precision of calculations (more intrabars yield more precise results).
• The chart coverage of calculations (there is a 100K limit to the quantity of intrabars that can be analyzed on any chart,
so the more intrabars you analyze per chart bar, the less chart bars can be calculated by the indicator).
The information box displayed at the bottom right of the chart shows the lower timeframe used for intrabars, as well as the average number of intrabars detected for chart bars and statistics on chart coverage.
Balances
This indicator calculates five balances from volume delta values. The balances are oscillators with a zero centerline; positive values are bullish, and negative values are bearish. It is important to understand the balances as they can be used to:
• Color candle bodies.
• Calculate body and top and bottom divergences.
• Color an EMA channel.
• Color the chart's background.
• Configure markers and alerts.
The five balances are:
1 — Bar Balance : This is the only balance using instant values; it is simply the subtraction of the down volume from the up volume on the bar, so the instant volume delta for that bar.
2 — Average Balance : Calculates a distinct EMA for both the up and down volumes, and subtracts the down EMA from the up EMA.
The result is akin to MACD's histogram because it is the subtraction of two moving averages.
3 — Momentum Balance : Starts by calculating, separately for both up and down volumes, the difference between the same EMAs used in "Average Balance" and
an SMA of twice the period used for the "Average Balance" EMAs. The difference for the up side is subtracted from the difference for the down side,
and an RSI of that value is calculated and brought over the −50/+50 scale.
4 — Relative Balance : The reference values used in the calculation are the up and down EMAs used in the "Average Balance".
From those, we calculate two intermediate values using how much the instant up and down volumes on the bar exceed their respective EMA — but with a twist.
If the bar's up volume does not exceed the EMA of up volume, a zero value is used. The same goes for the down volume with the EMA of down volume.
Once we have our two intermediate values for the up and down volumes exceeding their respective MA, we subtract them. The final value is an ALMA of that subtraction.
The rationale behind using zero values when the bar's up/down volume does not exceed its EMA is to only take into account the more significant volume.
If both instant volume values exceed their MA, then the difference between the two is the signal's value.
The signal is called "relative" because the intermediate values are the difference between the instant up/down volumes and their respective MA.
This balance flatlines when the bar's up/down volumes do not exceed their EMAs, which makes it useful to spot areas where trader interest dwindles, such as consolidations.
The smaller the period of the final value's ALMA, the more easily it will flatline. These flat zones should be considered no-trade zones.
5 — Percent Balance : This balance is the ALMA of the ratio of the "Bar Balance" over the total volume for that bar.
From the balances and marker conditions, two more values are calculated:
1 — Marker Bias : This sums the up/down (+1/‒1) occurrences of the markers 1 to 4 over a period you define, so it ranges from −4 to +4, times the period.
Its calculation will depend on the modes used to calculate markers 3 and 4.
2 — Combined Balances : This is the sum of the bull/bear (+1/−1) states of each of the five balances, so it ranges from −5 to +5.
The periods for all of these balances can be configured in the "Periods" section at the bottom of the script's inputs. As you cannot see the balances on the chart, you can use my Volume Delta Columns Pro indicator in a pane; it can plot the same balances, so you will be able to analyze them.
Divergences
In the context of this indicator, a divergence is any bar where the bear/bull state of a balance (above/below its zero centerline) diverges from the polarity of a chart bar. No directional bias is assigned to divergences when they occur. Candle bodies and tops/bottoms can each be colored differently on divergences detected from distinct balances.
Divergence Channel
The divergence channel is the space between two levels (by default, the bar's open and close ) saved when divergences occur. When price (by default the close ) has breached a channel and a new divergence occurs, a new channel is created. Until that new channel is breached, bars where additional divergences occur will expand the channel's levels if the bar's price points are outside the channel.
Prices breaches of the divergence channel will change its state. Divergence channels can be in one of three different states:
• Bull (green): Price has breached the channel to the upside.
• Bear (red): Price has breached the channel to the downside.
• Neutral (gray): The channel has not yet been breached.
█ HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
I do not make videos to explain how to use my indicators. I do, however, try hard to include in their description everything one needs to understand what they do. From there, it's up to you to explore and figure out if they can be useful in your trading practice. Communicating in videos what this description and the script's tooltips contain would make for very long videos that would likely exceed the attention span of most people who find this description too long. There is no quick way to understand an indicator such as this one because it uses many different concepts and has quite a bit of settings one can use to modify its visuals and behavior — thus how one uses it. I will happily answer questions on the inner workings of the indicator, but I do not answer questions like "How do I trade using this indicator?" A useful answer to that question would require an in-depth analysis of who you are, your trading methodology and objectives, which I do not have time for. I do not teach trading.
Start by loading the indicator on an active chart containing volume information. See here if you need help.
The default configuration displays:
• Normal candles where the bodies are only colored if the bar's volume has increased since the last bar.
If you want to use this indicator's candles, you may want to disable your chart's candles by clicking the eye icon to the right of the symbol's name in the top left of the chart.
• A top or bottom appended to the normal candles. It represents the difference between up and down volume for that bar
and is positioned at the top or bottom, depending on its polarity. If up volume is greater than down volume, a top is displayed. If down volume is greater, a bottom is plotted.
The size of tops and bottoms is determined by calculating a factor which is the proportion of volume delta over the bar's total volume.
That factor is then used to calculate the top or bottom size relative to a baseline of the average candle body size of the last 100 bars.
• An information box in the bottom right displaying intrabar and chart coverage information.
• A light red background when the intrabar volume differs from the chart's volume by more than 1%.
The script's inputs contain tooltips explaining most of the fields. I will not repeat them here. Following is a brief description of each section of the indicator's inputs which will give you an idea of what the indicator can do:
Normal Candles is where you configure the replacement candles plotted by the script. You can choose from different coloring schemes for their bodies and specify a unique color for bodies where a divergence calculated using the method you choose occurs.
Volume Tops & Botttoms is where you configure the display of tops and bottoms, and their EMAs. The EMAs are calculated from the high point of tops and the low point of bottoms. They can act as a channel to evaluate price, and you can choose to color the channel using a gradient reflecting the advances/declines in the balance of your choice.
Divergence Channel is where you set up the appearance and behavior of the divergence channel. These areas represent levels where price and volume delta information do not converge. They can be interpreted as regions with no clear direction from where one will look for breaches. You can configure the channel to take into account one or both types of divergences you have configured for candle bodies and tops/bottoms.
Background allows you to configure a gradient background color that reflects the advances/declines in the balance of your choice. You can use this to provide context to the volume delta values from bars. You can also control the background color displayed on volume discrepancies between the intrabar and the chart's timeframe.
Intrabars is where you choose the calculation mode determining the lower timeframe used to access intrabars. The indicator uses the chart's timeframe and the type of market you are on to calculate the lower timeframe. Your setting there should reflect which compromise you prefer between the precision of calculations and chart coverage. This is also where you control the display of the information box in the lower right corner of the chart.
Markers allows you to control the plotting of chart markers on different conditions. Their configuration determines when alerts generated from the indicator will fire. Note that in order to generate alerts from this script, they must be created from your chart. See this Help Center page to learn how. Only the last 500 markers will be visible on the chart, but this will not affect the generation of alerts.
Periods is where you configure the periods for the balances and the EMAs used in the indicator.
The raw values calculated by this script can be inspected using the Data Window.
█ INTERPRETATION
Rightly or wrongly, volume delta is considered by many a useful complement to the interpretation of price action. I use it extensively in an attempt to find convergence between my read of volume delta and price movement — not so much as a predictor of future price movement. No system or person can predict the future. Accordingly, I consider people who speak or act as if they know the future with certainty to be dangerous to themselves and others; they are charlatans, imprudent or blissfully ignorant.
I try to avoid elaborate volume delta interpretation schemes involving too many variables and prefer to keep things simple:
• Trends that have more chances of continuing should be accompanied by VD of the same polarity.
In trends, I am looking for "slow and steady". I work from the assumption that traders and systems often overreact, which translates into unproductive volatility.
Wild trends are more susceptible to overreactions.
• I prefer steady VD values over wildly increasing ones, as large VD increases often come with increased price volatility, which can backfire.
Large VD values caused by stopping volume will also often occur on trend reversals with abnormally high candles.
• Prices escaping divergence channels may be leading a trend in that direction, although there is no telling how long that trend will last; could be just a few bars or hundreds.
When price is in a channel, shifts in VD balances can sometimes give us an idea of the direction where price has the most chance of breaking.
• Dwindling VD will often indicate trend exhaustion and predate reversals by many bars, but the problem is that mere pauses in a trend will often produce the same behavior in VD.
I think it is too perilous to infer rigidly from VD decreases.
Divergence Channel
Here I have configured the divergence channels to be visible. First, I set the bodies to display divergences on the default Bar Balance. They are indicated by yellow bodies. Then I activated the divergence channels by choosing to draw levels on body divergences and checked the "Fill" checkbox to fill the channel with the same color as the levels. The divergence channel is best understood as a direction-less area from where a breach can be acted on if other variables converge with the breach's direction:
Tops and Bottoms EMAs
I find these EMAs rather interesting. They have no equivalent elsewhere, as they are calculated from the top and bottom values this indicator plots. The only similarity they have with volume-weighted MAs, including VWAP, is that they use price and volume. This indicator's Tops and Bottoms EMAs, however, use the price and volume delta. While the channel differs from other channels in how it is calculated, it can be used like others, as a baseline from which to evaluate price movement or, alternatively, as stop levels. Remember that you can change the period used for the EMAs in the "Periods" section of the inputs.
This chart shows the EMAs in action, filled with a gradient representing the advances/decline from the Momentum balance. Notice the anomaly in the chart's latest bars where the Momentum balance gradient has been indicating a bullish bias for some time, during which price was mostly below the EMAs. Price has just broken above the channel on positive VD. My interpretation of this situation would be that it is a risky opportunity for a long trade in the larger context where the market has been in a downtrend since the 5th. Intrepid traders choosing to enter here could do so with a "make or break" tight stop that will minimize their losses should the market continue its downtrend while hopefully preserving the potential upside of price continuing on the longer-term uptrend prevalent since the 28th:
█ NOTES
Volume
If you use indicators such as this one which depends on volume information, it is important to realize that the volume data they consume comes from data feeds, and that all data feeds are NOT created equally. Those who create the data feeds we use must make decisions concerning the nature of the transactions they tally and the way they are tallied in each feed, and these decisions affect the nature of our volume data. My Volume X-ray publication discusses some of the reasons why volume information from different timeframes, brokers/exchanges or sectors may vary considerably. I encourage you to read it. This indicator's display of a warning through a background color on volume discrepancies between the timeframe used to access intrabars and the chart's timeframe is an attempt to help you realize these variations in feeds. Don't take things for granted, and understand that the quality of a given feed's volume information affects the quality of the results this indicator calculates.
Markets as ecosystems
I believe it is perilous to think that behavioral patterns you discover in one market through the lens of this or any other indicator will necessarily port to other markets. While this may sometimes be the case, it will often not. Why is that? Because each market is its own ecosystem. As cities do, all markets share some common characteristics, but they also all have their idiosyncrasies. A proportion of a city's inhabitants is always composed of outsiders who come and go, but a core population of regulars and systems is usually the force that actually defines most of the city's observable characteristics. I believe markets work somewhat the same way; they may look the same, but if you live there for a while and pay attention, you will notice the idiosyncrasies. Some things that work in some markets will, accordingly, not work in others. Please keep that in mind when you draw conclusions.
On Up/Down or Buy/Sell Volume
Buying or selling volume are misnomers, as every unit of volume transacted is both bought and sold by two different traders. While this does not keep me from using the terms, there is no such thing as “buy only” or “sell only” volume. Trader lingo is riddled with peculiarities. Without access to order book information, traders work with the assumption that when price moves up during a bar, there was more buying pressure than selling pressure, just as when buy market orders take out limit ask orders in the order book at successively higher levels. The built-in volume indicator available on TradingView uses this logic to color the volume columns green or red. While this script’s calculations are more precise because it analyses intrabars to calculate its information, it uses pretty much the same imperfect logic. Until Pine scripts can have access to how much volume was transacted at the bid/ask prices, our volume delta calculations will remain a mere proxy.
Repainting
• The values calculated on the realtime bar will update as new information comes from the feed.
• Historical values may recalculate if the historical feed is updated or when calculations start from a new point in history.
• Markers and alerts will not repaint as they only occur on a bar's close. Keep this in mind when viewing markers on historical bars,
where one could understandably and incorrectly assume they appear at the bar's open.
To learn more about repainting, see the Pine Script™ User Manual's page on the subject .
Superfluity
In "The Bed of Procrustes", Nassim Nicholas Taleb writes: To bankrupt a fool, give him information . This indicator can display a lot of information. The inevitable adaptation period you will need to figure out how to use it should help you eliminate all the visuals you do not need. The more you eliminate, the easier it will be to focus on those that are the most useful to your trading practice. Don't be a fool.
█ THANKS
Thanks to alexgrover for his Dekidaka-Ashi indicator. His volume plots on candles were the inspiration for my top/bottom plots.
Kudos to PineCoders for their libraries. I use two of them in this script: Time and lower_tf .
The first versions of this script used functionality that I would not have known about were it not for these two guys:
— A guy called Kuan who commented on a Backtest Rookies presentation of their Volume Profile indicator.
— theheirophant , my partner in the exploration of the sometimes weird abysses of request.security() ’s behavior at lower timeframes.
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.
Volume Breakout (ValueRay)Easy visuals on, if volume is way over average. Good for Mean Reverting. Higher Volume tends to higher breakout chances.
Please whisper me for for ideas how to make this better. Its a very simple script, but got some alpha. If you know how to improve, let me know and i will code it into.
Open/Close VolumeOpen/Close Volume Indicator
The Open/Close Volume Indicator provides a breakdown of trading volume based on Open Interest (OI) changes. It helps identify whether the trading volume is driven by opening new positions (Open Volume) or closing existing positions (Close Volume).
Key Features:
Visual Breakdown of Volume:
Green bars represent Open Volume (new positions being added).
Red bars represent Close Volume (existing positions being closed).
Dynamic Open Interest Data:
Tracks changes in Open Interest to calculate the distribution of Open and Close Volumes.
Adapts automatically to the current chart's symbol or a custom user-specified symbol.
Error Handling:
Displays an alert when Open Interest data is unavailable for the selected symbol.
Zero-Line Reference:
Includes a gray dotted line at 0 for easy reference between Open and Close Volumes.
Use Case:
This indicator is ideal for futures traders who want to analyze market sentiment and understand whether market activity is being driven by the initiation of new trades or the closing of existing ones.
How It Works:
Open Interest Change:
Positive OI change → Open Volume .
Negative OI change → Close Volume .
No OI change → All trading volume is considered Close Volume.
Data Representation:
Open Volume is plotted above the zero line (positive values).
Close Volume is plotted below the zero line (negative values).
Volume Insignts AnalyzerDescription:
The Volume Insight Analyzer is an advanced Pine Script designed for traders who want a comprehensive view of volume dynamics on their charts. This script combines multiple volume-based indicators to help identify key trading opportunities, including significant volume days, volume dry-ups, and pocket pivots.
Key Features:
VDU (Volume Dry-Up) Detection: Automatically identifies and marks days when the volume is significantly below its moving average, helping to spot potential breakout or breakdown points. Customizable volume thresholds allow for tailored analysis based on your trading strategy. The Volume Dry-Up label appears when the volume is substantially below its average level and the price is near a key moving average. This condition indicates a period of equilibrium between supply and demand, suggesting a potential low-risk entry point for traders.
Pocket Pivot Analysis using 5 and 10 Length Pocket Pivots: Highlights days with exceptionally high volume compared to recent history, indicating potential pocket pivots. Visual markers on the chart and volume bars color-coded for 5 and 10-day lengths. Pocket pivot points are identified when the volume on a given day exceeds the maximum volume observed over the past several days. Specifically, a 5-day pocket pivot point is marked when today's volume surpasses the highest selling volume of the last 5 days. A cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points within a base is a strong indicator of stock strength. Similarly, a 10-day pocket pivot point following a Volume Dry-Up (VDU) suggests a potential entry opportunity. Moreover, a pre-existing cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points before a 10-day pocket pivot point provides greater conviction in the trade.
Volume Moving Averages: Set different lengths for primary and secondary moving averages to track volume trends over daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes. Options to display moving average lines on the volume chart.
Volume Visualization:
a. Major and Minor Volume Bars: Option to display bars that are either above or below average volume levels. Adjustable settings to show or hide these bars based on user preference.
b. Volume Bar Coloring: Volume bars are color-coded based on significant volume thresholds, including green for bullish signals, red for bearish signals, and orange for volume dry-ups.
Volume Metrics Table: A customizable table that displays real-time volume metrics including Relative Volume (RVOL), Turnover, and the number of high volume days. The table can be oriented horizontally or vertically and styled according to your theme preferences.
Visual Indicators:
a) Volume Dry-Up (VDU) Labels: Clearly marked VDU events with textual annotations on the chart.
b) Bullish and Bearish Arrows: Arrows indicating potential bullish or bearish closes based on volume analysis, enhancing decision-making.
Customization Options:
a) Dark and Light Theme Support: Toggle between dark and light themes to match your chart settings.
b) Adjustable Parameters: Easily configure input settings such as volume thresholds, MA lengths, and table display options to fit your trading style.
How to Use:
Set Parameters: Adjust the script settings such as volume thresholds, moving average lengths, and display preferences according to your analysis needs.
Analyze Volume Patterns: Use the indicators and visual markers provided by the script to identify significant volume patterns and potential trading signals.
Monitor Metrics: Refer to the volume metrics table for a quick overview of key volume-related statistics and trends.

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.
VWAP Volume Profile [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
VWAP Volume Profile is an advanced hybrid of the VWAP and volume profile concepts. It visualizes how volume accumulates relative to VWAP movement—separating rising (+VWAP) and declining (−VWAP) activity into two mirrored horizontal profiles. It highlights the dominant price bins (POCs) where volume peaked during each directional phase, helping traders spot hidden accumulation or distribution zones.
🔵 CONCEPTS
VWAP-Driven Profiling: Unlike standard volume profiles, this tool segments volume based on VWAP movement—accumulating positive or negative volume depending on VWAP slope.
Dual-Sided Profiles: Profiles expand horizontally to the right of price. Separate bins show rising (+) and falling (−) VWAP volume.
Bin Logic: Volume is accumulated into defined horizontal bins based on VWAP’s position relative to price ranges.
Gradient Coloring: Volume bars are colored with a dynamic gradient to emphasize intensity and direction.
POC Highlighting: The highest-volume bin in each profile type (+/-) is marked with a transparent box and label.
Contextual VWAP Line: VWAP is plotted and dynamically colored (green = rising, orange = falling) for instant trend context.
Candle Overlay: Price candles are recolored to match the VWAP slope for full visual integration.
🔵 FEATURES
Dual-sided horizontal volume profiles based on VWAP slope.
Supports rising VWAP , falling VWAP , or both simultaneously.
Customizable number of bins and lookback period.
Dynamically colored VWAP line to show rising/falling bias.
POC detection and labeling with volume values for +VWAP and −VWAP.
Candlesticks are recolored to match VWAP bias for intuitive momentum tracking.
Optional background boxes with customizable styling.
Adaptive volume scaling to normalize bar length across markets.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use POC zones to identify high-volume consolidation areas and potential support/resistance levels.
Watch for shifts in VWAP direction and observe how volume builds differently during uptrends and downtrends.
Use the gradient profile shape to detect accumulation (widening volume below price) or distribution (above price).
Use candle coloring for real-time confirmation of VWAP bias.
Adjust the profile period or bin count to fit your trading style (e.g., intraday scalping or swing trading).
🔵 CONCLUSION
VWAP Volume Profile merges two essential concepts—volume and VWAP—into a single, high-precision tool. By visualizing how volume behaves in relation to VWAP movement, it uncovers hidden dynamics often missed by traditional profiles. Perfect for intraday and swing traders who want a more nuanced read on market structure, trend strength, and volume flow.
Delta Volume Profile [BigBeluga]🔵Delta Volume Profile
A dynamic volume analysis tool that builds two separate horizontal profiles: one for bullish candles and one for bearish candles. This indicator helps traders identify the true balance of buying vs. selling volume across price levels, highlighting points of control (POCs), delta dominance, and hidden volume clusters with remarkable precision.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Split Volume Profiles (Bull vs. Bear):
The indicator separates volume based on candle direction:
If close > open , the candle’s volume is added to the bullish profile (positive volume).
If close < open , it contributes to the bearish profile (negative volume).
ATR-Based Binning:
The price range over the selected lookback is split into bins using ATR(200) as the bin height.
Each bin accumulates both bull and bear volumes to form the dual-sided profile.
Bull and Bear Volume Bars:
Bullish volumes are shown as right-facing bars on the right side, colored with a bullish gradient.
Bearish volumes appear as left-facing bars on the left side, shaded with a bearish gradient.
Each bar includes a volume label (e.g., +12.45K or -9.33K) to show exact volume at that price level.
Points of Control (POC) Highlighting:
The bin with the highest bullish volume is marked with a border in POC+ color (default: blue).
The bin with the highest bearish volume is marked with a POC− color (default: orange).
Total Volume Density Map:
A neutral gray background box is plotted behind candles showing the total volume (bull + bear) per bin.
This reveals high-interest price zones regardless of direction.
Delta and Total Volume Summary:
A Delta label appears at the top, showing net % difference between bull and bear volume.
A Total label at the bottom shows total accumulated volume across all bins.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator captures all candles within the lookback period .
It calculates the price range and splits it into bins using ATR for adaptive resolution.
For each candle:
If price intersects a bin and close > open , volume is added to the positive profile .
If close < open , volume is added to the negative profile .
The result is two side-by-side histograms at each price level—one for buyers, one for sellers.
The bin with the highest value on each side is visually emphasized using POC highlight colors.
At the end, the script calculates:
Delta: Total % difference between bull and bear volumes.
Total: Sum of all volumes in the lookback window.
🔵 USAGE
Volume Imbalance Zones: Identify price levels where buyers or sellers were clearly dominant.
Fade or Follow Volume Clusters: Use POC+ or POC− levels for reaction trades or breakouts.
Delta Strength Filtering: Strong delta values (> ±20%) suggest momentum or exhaustion setups.
Volume-Based Anchoring: Use profile levels to mark hidden support/resistance and execution zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Delta Volume Profile offers a unique advantage in market reading by separating buyer and seller activity into two visual layers. This allows traders to not only spot where volume was high, but also who was more aggressive. Whether you’re analyzing trend continuations, reversals, or absorption levels, this indicator gives you the transparency needed to trade with confidence.
Volume Range Map [BigBeluga]This volume-based tool identifies the highest and lowest price extremes within a lookback period and constructs two dynamic range zones. Each zone is filled with horizontal volume profiles that visualize the distribution of traded volume across price bins, helping traders pinpoint key areas of accumulation and distribution.
🔵Key Features:
Dynamic High/Low Zones:
➣ Automatically detects the highest and lowest price levels within a custom lookback window.
➣ Draws two shaded zones: one near the high and one near the low, representing potential supply and demand areas.
Volume Profiles per Zone:
➣ Each zone is filled with a volume profile histogram divided into bins.
➣ The length of each horizontal bar represents the relative volume traded at that price level.
➣ Bins collectively account for 100% of the zone’s volume.
POC Highlighting:
➣ The price bin with the highest volume is marked as the Point of Control (POC), along with a label showing its share of total volume in percentage.
➣ A dashed line is drawn at the middle level of the zone.
Customizable Display:
➣ Traders can adjust the number of bins, zone width, and toggle midline visibility to match their strategy needs.
➣ Colors of upper and lower volume zones are fully customizable.
🔵Usage:
Supply/Demand Analysis: Use upper/lower volume zones to find key reversal or continuation areas where market participants were most active.
Volume Confirmation: Confirm breakout or rejection trades by watching how price reacts to high-volume areas inside each zone.
POC Strategy: Treat POC levels as magnet zones — price tends to revisit them due to high liquidity.
Trade Planning: Use volume-weighted levels instead of raw price action to plan entries, stop-losses, and targets.
Volume Range Map offers a clean and powerful way to analyze volume distribution at price extremes. By combining precise volume histograms, POC highlights, and adaptive zone drawing, it brings market structure into sharper focus for range and breakout traders alike.
Volume Profile Heatmap [UAlgo]The "Volume Profile Heatmap " indicator is a tool designed to visualize the distribution of trading volume across different price levels over a specified period. This heatmap-style indicator helps traders identify significant price levels where a high volume of trading activity has occurred, which can be crucial for making informed trading decisions. The indicator divides the price range into multiple levels and calculates the volume of trades occurring at each level, presenting this data in a visually intuitive manner using a gradient of colors.
By analyzing the volume profile, traders can gain insights into areas of support and resistance, as well as the Point of Control (POC)—the price level with the highest traded volume. This information is valuable in assessing market sentiment, potential reversal points, and key areas of interest where price action might consolidate or react.
🔶 Key Features
Customizable Analysis Period: The indicator allows users to specify the analysis period, defining the historical range over which the volume profile is calculated.
Adjustable Number of Levels: Users can set the number of price levels to divide the price range, offering flexibility in the granularity of the volume analysis.
Color-Coded Heatmap: The indicator uses a gradient color scheme to visually represent volume intensity at each price level. Higher volume areas are shaded differently than lower volume areas, making it easy to spot significant price levels.
Opacity Control: Users can adjust the opacity of the volume boxes, enabling a clearer or more subtle visualization according to their preferences.
Point of Control (POC) Display: The indicator highlights the Point of Control, the price level with the highest traded volume, with a distinct line on the chart, allowing traders to easily identify this critical level.

Volume Spread Analysis [AlgoAlpha]Unleash the power of Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) with our state-of-the-art indicator designed to detect market divergences and convergences, helping you make informed trading decisions. 📈
Key Features:
Detects bullish and bearish divergences based on volume and price movements. 📊🔍
Identifies bullish and bearish convergences, signaling potential trend continuations or reversals. 🔄📉
Customizable parameters for period length, volume SMA period, and outlier reduction factor. ⚙️🔧
Visual highlights for detected effects, with color-coded boxes and labels. 🟩🟥
Provides alerts for divergences and convergences, keeping you updated on market conditions. 🔔📬
📚 Introduction to Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) :
Volume Spread Analysis is a method used to interpret the relationship between volume and price to identify the intentions of market participants. By analyzing the spread (range) of a price bar and its corresponding volume, VSA helps traders discern market strength and potential reversals.
In VSA, harmony occurs when price and volume move in sync, such as when increasing prices(aka "Effect" in the script) are accompanied by increasing volume. This indicates a strong and healthy trend. Conversely, divergence happens when price and volume move in opposite directions. For example, if prices are rising lesser but volume is still high, it may signal a weakening trend and a potential reversal. Identifying these patterns helps traders understand market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
🛠 Quick Guide to Using the Volume Spread Analysis Indicator
⭐ Add the Indicator: Add the indicator to favorites by pressing the star icon. Customize settings such as period length, volume SMA period, and outlier reduction factor to fit your trading style.
📊 Market Analysis: Watch for color-coded boxes indicating effects and labels showing effort values. Look for divergences and convergences to identify potential trading opportunities. A higher work done suggests that the markets are needing to work harder to move the price and users can use that information as displayed below each trend impulse box to analyze the likely hood of trend continuation/reversals.
🔔 Alerts: Enable alerts for divergences and convergences to stay informed of critical market conditions without constant chart monitoring.
🔍 How It Works:
Our indicator meticulously analyzes volume and price data to detect significant market movements. It identifies periods where volume is above or below a moving average, marks these points, and tracks the price effect over a user-defined range. By calculating the effort (volume) and effect (price movement), it distinguishes between divergences and convergences based on predefined conditions. Bullish and bearish conditions are visually represented with color-coded boxes and labels, making it easy to spot trading opportunities. Alerts can be set to notify you of critical market conditions, ensuring you never miss a potential trade setup.
Happy trading! 📈🚀
Volumetric Volatility Blocks [UAlgo]The Volumetric Volatility Blocks indicator is designed to identify significant volatility blocks based on price and volume data. It utilizes a combination of the Average True Range (ATR) and Simple Moving Average (SMA) to determine the volatility level and identify periods of heightened market activity. The indicator highlights these volatility blocks, providing traders with visual cues for potential trading opportunities. It differentiates between bullish and bearish volatility by analyzing price movement and volume, offering a nuanced view of market sentiment. This tool is particularly useful for traders looking to capitalize on periods of high volatility and momentum shifts.
🔶 Key Features
Volatility Measurement Length: Controls the period used to calculate the ATR.
Smooth Length of Volatility: Defines the period for the SMA used to smooth the ATR.
Multiplier of SMA: Sets the minimum threshold for the ATR to be considered a "high volatility" block.
Show Last X Volatility Blocks: Determines how many of the most recent volatility blocks are displayed on the chart.
Mitigation Method: Choose between "Close" or "Wick" price to filter volatility blocks based on price action. This helps avoid highlighting blocks broken by the chosen price level.
Volume Info: Displaying the volume associated with each block.
Up/Down Block Color: Sets the color for bullish and bearish volatility blocks.
🔶 Usage
The Volumetric Volatility Blocks indicator visually represents periods of high volatility with blocks on the chart. Green blocks indicate bullish volatility, while red blocks indicate bearish volatility.
Bullish Volatility Blocks: When the ATR surpasses the smoothed ATR multiplied by the set multiplier, and the price closes higher than it opened, a bullish block is formed. These blocks are generally used to identify potential buying opportunities as they indicate upward momentum.
Bearish Volatility Blocks: Conversely, bearish blocks form under the same conditions, but when the price closes lower than it opened. These blocks can signal potential selling opportunities as they highlight downward momentum.
Volume Information: Each block can display volume data, providing insight into the strength of the market movement. The percentage shown on the block indicates the relative volume contribution of that block, helping traders assess the significance of the volatility.
The volume percentages in the Volumetric Volatility Blocks indicator are calculated based on the total volume of the most recent volatility blocks. For each of the most recent volatility blocks, the percentage of the total volume is calculated by dividing the block's volume by the total volume:

High/Low VolumeIn this indicator, I show you a better way to define high/low values of volume (or any other indicator).
Quite often, I get requests from my clients that an indicator level should be “high” or that it should be above a certain absolute level.
The first request is hard to interpret mathematically, but traders can easily spot it on the chart. The second one is not flexible, and it might not make sense in another market regime.
To solve that, you can compute dynamic high/low levels that represent unexpected extreme values that are adaptable to recent conditions.
There are two pretty simple methods I’m using quite often in my scripts percentiles and sigma (standard deviations).
Percentile looks back at X bars and computes the value under which a certain % of data points are located. So, for example, if we’re computing 90%tile and we’re looking at 100 bars, we’ll get a value under which we have values of precisely 90 bars for this indicator. It’s a good idea to use something like 5%tile for low level and 95%tile for high level.
Sigma(σ) is related to standard deviation. If we assume that our data is normally distributed, then 68% of data points should be in the range of mean +-1σ, 95% → mean +-2σ. So we can assume that something above 2σ is a pretty rare and extreme event.
In this script, I give you an example of how to compute both on volume, but you can easily change this to another indicator.
The issue with volume is that it’s not normally distributed, and your low level will be quite often too low to detect any low levels. Ideally, we have to use a more sophisticated formula that fits volume distribution better.
In this indicator, you can set the following parameters:
Choose type: Percentile or Sigma
Lookback Period
High/Low Percentiles
Sigmas #
You can also receive alerts for high/low volume events.

Please remember that past performance may not indicate future results.
Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, the strategy may no longer perform as well as in historical backtesting.

Volume Profile AnalysisThe Volume Profile Dashboard is a professional-grade analysis tool built for TradingView. It focuses on displaying a comprehensive volume profile breakdown within a dashboard format directly on the chart. The purpose of this tool is to help traders quickly assess buy versus sell volume dynamics, momentum, and sentiment in order to support informed trading decisions.
Instead of plotting simple bars, this indicator uses a detailed table and visual progress bar to summarize live and historical market activity. By condensing key metrics into a structured format, traders can analyse market behaviour without manually calculating or switching between multiple indicators.
________________________________________
How the Script Works
1. Data Gathering
The script uses lower-timeframe price and volume data to calculate buy volume, sell volume, and total traded volume for the current and previous candles.
2. Volume Allocation
Buy and sell volumes are estimated by looking at the candle’s range (high to low) and how the closing price aligns within that range. The closer the close is to the high, the stronger the buying pressure. The closer the close is to the low, the stronger the selling pressure.
3. Delta and Momentum
o Delta measures the difference between buy and sell volume.
o Volume momentum compares the current candle’s activity to the previous one, showing if interest is rising or fading.
4. Point of Control (POC)
An average of high, low, and close is calculated to give an approximate “point of control” level—an area of balance where buyers and sellers previously agreed on price.
5. Dashboard Visualization
All these calculations are displayed inside a clean dashboard table with separate rows for the current candle, previous candle, and a summary row. Icons, colors, and progress bars make it visually intuitive.
6. On-Chart Progress Indicator
A dynamic horizontal progress bar is plotted on the chart above price, showing the balance between buy and sell volume for the latest activity.
7. Alerts
Built-in alerts trigger when strong buying or selling pressure is detected or when there is a significant spike in total traded volume.
________________________________________
How This Tool Can Be Used
• Intraday Trading: Quickly gauge whether buyers or sellers are in control of the market at any moment.
• Swing Trading: Compare momentum shifts between candles to identify early trend reversals.
• Risk Management: Use delta and sentiment signals to confirm whether to hold or reduce exposure.
• Confirmation: Align the volume profile dashboard with other indicators (such as RSI, MACD, or trendlines) for stronger trading conviction.
________________________________________
Using Mixed Indicators for Decisions
This dashboard alone provides volume insights, but better decisions come when it is combined with other tools:
• Pairing it with an RSI can show whether heavy buying is happening in overbought conditions.
• Combining with a SuperTrend or moving averages can confirm if volume momentum aligns with the price trend.
• Overlaying support/resistance levels can identify whether strong buy/sell signals occur at critical levels.
Mixed indicators prevent relying on one signal alone, reducing false trades.

Bharat Jhunjhunwala v2- Volume Color CodingPurpose of the Script
This script is designed for traders in India to visualize and analyze trading volume in the stock market. It colors the volume bars based on how the current trading volume compares to its average over the past 20 periods. This helps traders quickly identify unusual trading activity.
How It Works Step by Step
Setting Up the Indicator
Name & Display: The script is named "Bharat Jhunjhunwala- Volume Color Coding" and it displays below the main stock chart (overlay=false).
Volume Format: It formats the data specifically for volume (format=format.volume).
User Input
Volume Moving Average Period: Users can set how many periods (e.g., days) to consider for calculating the average volume. By default, it's set to 20 periods, and users can adjust this if needed.
Predefined Volume Ratios
The script uses fixed ratios to categorize the current volume:
Ultra High Volume: 3.0 times the average volume.
High Volume: 1.8 times the average volume.
Ultra Low Volume: Between 0.4 and 0.7 times the average volume.
Note: These ratios are hardcoded, meaning users cannot change them.
Calculating the Average Volume
The script calculates the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume over the specified number of periods (default is 20). This average helps determine what "normal" volume looks like.
Determining Volume Levels
Ultra High Volume: If the current volume is 3 times or more the average, it's flagged as ultra high.
High Volume: If the current volume is 1.8 times or more but less than ultra high, it's flagged as high.
Ultra Low Volume: If the current volume is between 0.4 and 0.7 times the average, it's flagged as ultra low.
Normal Volume: Any volume that doesn't fit the above categories is considered normal.
Color Coding the Volume Bars
Based on the volume level determined:
Red: Ultra High Volume
Orange: High Volume
Blue: Ultra Low Volume
Green: Normal Volume
This color coding makes it easy to spot unusual trading activity at a glance.
Plotting on the Chart
Volume Bars: The script plots the actual trading volume as colored bars according to the categories above.
Volume Moving Average Line: It also plots the 20-period moving average of the volume as a green line. This line serves as a reference to compare current volumes against the average.
Why This is Useful
Quick Identification: Traders can instantly see when there's unusually high or low trading activity, which might indicate significant market moves or investor interest.
Trend Analysis: By comparing current volume to the moving average, traders can assess whether the current market behavior is stronger or weaker than usual.
Decision Making: Colored volume bars can help in making informed trading decisions, such as entering or exiting positions based on volume spikes or drops.
Customization
Adjusting the Moving Average: While the volume ratios are fixed, traders can change the number of periods used to calculate the moving average to better fit different trading strategies or time frames.
Summary
This script enhances the standard volume indicator by adding color-coded signals based on predefined volume thresholds relative to a moving average. It's a helpful tool for Indian stock traders to monitor and react to changes in trading volume effectively.
OPINICUS VOLUME DATA - Time Of Day Relative Volume (RVOL)This tool calculates the relative volume (RVOL) based on the normal average volume at that particular time of day.
Relative volume is a powerful piece of information because it offers a gauge as to whether a stock is in play or not. If RVOL is less than 1 it is not in play on this trading day or during this timeframe. If RVOL is above 2, it IS in play and can potentially be traded.
This script allows you to determine if relative volume is average, above average, 2x, or 3x via different color volume bars, at that particular time of day.
There are 2 different settings on this volume indicator.
The first setting is "Gradient." This is the preferred setting, and the one I personally use. Gradient is going to show you different color volume bars based on the RVOL multiple.
The color scheme is as follows:
Gray for average volume
Red if RVOL is between 1.0 and 1.5
Orange if RVOL is between 1.5 and 2
Green if RVOL is between 2.0 and 3.0
Lime green (bright green) if RVOL is greater than 3.
The second setting is "Price." This setting simply shows you the color of the candlestick. This is useful if you find the gradient setting to be too distracting, but still want to see if there is increased relative volume.
There is an alerts setting, which I find to be useful but can also be very distracting. If you leave the "Alert At RVOL %" setting at 0, then alerts will only be triggered if the current candle exceeds the 1.0 (100%) RVOL level. This happens far too frequently, so I prefer to put the alert at 2 or 3. If you change the "Alert At RVOL %" setting then alerts will be triggered if the RVOL percentage (blue number) exceeds your given value. The blue number is a percentage of the average, so if it’s at 1, then it’s 100% of the average.
Note: This tool does not work if you have after-hours or pre-market data displayed. The preferred setting for this tool is the 15' chart, with a 21 day look back period. It is also very useful on the daily chart when doing higher timeframe research.

Volume Spike LevelsThis trading indicator finds specific high volume patterns that we have found to be the most likely to act as strong support and resistance levels and plots them on the chart. Using those high probability levels, the indicator will show lines in real time, as well as lines and important zones at the beginning of higher time frames to give you specific levels and areas where price is likely to react.
The most important volume zone for each time frame will have a color fill between the top and bottom lines of that high probability zone so you know to pay extra close attention to that area and look for price reactions there. If you can be patient enough to wait for price to hit these important areas and start to reverse, you will get great entries and help keep yourself from overtrading.
The levels shown can be adjusted to suit your preference, allowing you to get the right amount of levels for your trading strategy, whether that be scalping the 1 minute chart or long term investing via the daily chart.
HOW TO USE
For best results with this indicator, look for 2 types of setups. The first setup is a continuation bounce. You should be looking for these when price has broken out of its recent trading range either to the upside or the downside. When price is extending like this, look to take entries once a volume spike level shows up on the chart and price retraces back to that level. Then take your entry in the same direction as the trend. You can scalp quick wins this way, or you can wait for the next volume spike level to show up and price can’t hold that level any more, then get out. Place your stop loss just beyond the pivot that bounced off of the volume level.
The second type of setup you should look for is a reversal setup. This setup should be used when the market is ranging. Look for the top and bottom of the recent range and find the volume spike levels near the top or bottom of that range and wait for price to reach those levels. Once price hits that level and starts to show a reversal in price, take your entry. You can take quick scalps from those reversals for quick wins, or you can wait for price to reach the next major volume spike level and get out there or just before it. Place your stop loss just beyond the pivot that price made at the volume spike level where you entered your trade.
No matter which setup you are trading, it is never a bad idea to trail your stop loss as price moves towards your take profit level. Whatever volume spike timeframes you are using for your overall trend, you can use a lower time frame volume spike level to give you price points to trail your stop loss to there once price gets supportive at those levels and moves past them.
You should also pay close attention to how price reacts to the important volume zones shown. Many times, price will range inside or near these zones for a while and then form an accumulation just above or below that zone. When this happens, it is likely that price will start to move quickly in the direction that price moved away from that important zone. So when you see the price range inside of these zones and then go just beyond the zone on either side and accumulate, look to trade that breakout of the zone in the same direction that it moved away from the zone.
Note that on lower time frame charts, you will not be able to get some higher time frame levels because Tradingview limits the number of historical bars it can calculate on. So if you are on the 1-5 minute chart, you won’t be able to get yearly or quarterly levels late in the year/quarter due to the number of bars it has to calculate for those levels to populate is beyond the number of allowed bars. You can work around this by manually going to the daily chart and getting the yearly levels and drawing a horizontal line on your chart at the levels shown so that you still have those levels on your lower time frame charts. Unfortunately there is no way for us to work around this with code.
Each setting in the settings panel has a tooltip that will explain that specific setting so you understand how to use it. Just hover your mouse over the “i” icon and it will show a popup with the info. For the non-real time levels, the daily level settings will have the tooltips explaining everything and that info applies to all of the non-real time levels.
MODES
The indicator has two different modes you can use that will affect how the real time levels show up on your chart but will not affect the higher time frame levels. The default mode will give you static horizontal lines only. This means that when a high probability volume spike level comes in, a horizontal line will be drawn and will extend as long as the timeframe that the level is set to. For example a 60 minute volume spike time frame will extend the line for 60 minutes on the chart and then end. These lines will be drawn individually and will not update.
The second mode will give you variable lines and will show a color fill based on where price is in relation to all of the real time levels that are turned on. So if the price is above a level, it will color the background green and if the price is below a level, it will color the background red. This helps identify the trend of price compared to where the high probability volume spike levels came in so you can trade in the direction of the trend. With this mode, the lines for each time frame will update to the new level when a new volume spike for that time frame happens.
ALERTS
The indicator has alerts programmed for each different type of volume spike level that is available to add to your chart. So you can set an alert for when a new volume spike happens on any of the real time volume spike time frames, when price crosses the most recent real time volume spike level for each time frame, alert when any real time volume spike happens, alert when price crosses any of the higher time frame volume levels and also when price has crossed the upper or lower level of any of the important volume zones. Each alert is labeled the same as in the indicator settings so you can easily select which one you want.
For alerts to work properly, you have to have the levels turned on for whatever alerts you use. For example if you want an alert for Realtime 2 Volume Spikes, the Realtime 2 Volume Spike Levels must be turned on and shown on your chart.
Note that when using the alerts for price crossing a level, it will only alert when price crosses the most recent volume spike level. It will not alert when price crosses a previous level of the same time frame.
CUSTOMIZATION
You can customize nearly every feature of this indicator to tailor it to your specific trading style. Some of the customizable features are as follows: turn on or off labels for each time frame, turn on or off the color fills for important volume zones for each time frame, turn on or off the levels for each time frame, adjust the number of previous levels shown for each time frame, change the length of the lines for each time frame, extend the lines right for each time frame, change the color of the lines for each time frame, adjust the color fill colors for important volume zones, adjust the label colors and adjust the label offset length.
We also included some master settings to allow you to control various settings across all time frames with one click. These settings are as follows: turn on or off all labels, turn on or off all realtime levels, remove all lines except the most important volume zone on every time frame, turn on or off all color fills of important zones, adjust the background color fill of the trend coloring when set to variable lines and adjust the background color of all important zones.
There is also a feature that may need to be adjusted when you are looking at charts that do not have a lot of historical data. It will say the index is out of bounds, so look at the index number that the error shows by hovering over the red exclamation point next to the indicator name and adjust the setting labeled “Bar Index Threshold To Fix Errors” to a number that is slightly higher than the index number in the error message. This will fix the error by changing the calculations slightly to adjust for the bar indexes of that specific chart.

Follow the Volumes / Path of Least ResistanceThis indicator tracks price movements following significant volume increases. It identifies volume spikes by comparing recent average volume to a longer-term average. After a spike, it monitors price changes over a specified number of bars.
In plain English, the point of this is to “let the market show it’s hand”, vs. other common and preemptive methods of execution.
You can think of it as a better version of a volume up/down indicator which only uses opening and closing prices to identify "bullish" or "bearish" behavior.
To optimize this, I used a very small range chart, hence the small values. You will need to experiment with other values, ESPECIALLY the % change. If you do not do this, the indicator will generate a lot of noise.
The indicator has three main conditions:
1. Significant price increase, bullish: A green triangle appears below the bar.
2. Significant price decrease, bearish: A red triangle appears above the bar.
3. Price change within thresholds: A fuschia triangle appears, pointing up or down based on the overall (short-term) trend. This is common behavior during trends. A spike in volume will appear, and price simply does not budge. Volume/price is essentially declaring a new found value, in which case prices tend to follow the impulse movement (see market profile theory).
The color scheme is intuitive: green for positive moves, red for negative, and fuschia for subtle changes following the existing trend. Blue circles mark volume spikes for reference, which I recommend using only for reference, and disabling to remove unneeded noise.
Because this indicator "lags" in the sense of waiting for the market to show its hand, best opportunities are typically found on retests of the volume spikes themselves. On drives, however, the market will unlikely pullback, which (in my view) is one of its best use cases.
Bottom line, you will need to adjust the parameters to the instrument. This is not a plug and play solution, but far more accurate than those which are.
Settings, and what they mean:
Volume spike average bars: length for identification of high volumes. On smaller timeframes, such as my optimization period, you’ll want several bars. But on something such as a 5 minute or higher, only 1.
Lookback period: for identification of high volumes.
Volume Increase Threshold (%): % which constitutes a jump in volume
Bars After Spike: How long to wait for ensuing price movement. Also sensitive to the timeframe you are using. 1-2 recommended for 5m+, more for smaller range-based.
Negative Price Change Threshold (%): For red arrows (Volume + Price Movement)
Positive Price Change Threshold (%): Inverse of above
WMA Period for Stability Function: When price spikes on high volumes but does not move (price is “trapped” between negative and positive price change thresholds) the indicator marks direction (in fuchsia) in the direction of the underlying trend. This short-term MA identifies that trend.
Finally, because this indicator is volume-based, I recommend using primary instruments only and discourage its use on CFDs or other firm-generated instruments. Just use the primary. I would ignore signals off the open, which is subject to erroneous behavior. Other methods are far more effective for that.
This script is purposely uncomplicated. Feel free to play with settings and change code to suit your needs.
Volume Breakout by Chosen VolumeDescription:
The Volume Breakout indicator (VB) is a technical analysis tool that highlights candles with significant trading volume. It helps traders identify potential breakout periods characterized by high volume activity.
How it Works:
The Volume Breakout indicator compares the volume of each candle with a user-defined minimum volume threshold. If the volume of a candle exceeds or is equal to the specified minimum volume requirement, the indicator identifies it as a volume breakout and marks it accordingly.
Usage:
To effectively utilize the Volume Breakout indicator, follow these steps:
1. Apply the VB indicator to your chart by adding it from the available indicators.
2. Customize the minimum required volume parameter according to your trading preferences. This parameter determines the threshold volume level that a candle must meet or exceed to be considered a breakout candidate.
3. Observe the candles on the chart:
- Candles that meet or exceed the minimum required volume are highlighted with a specific color (yellow by default), indicating potential breakout periods.
4. Pay attention to the volume breakout indications within the candles, as they suggest periods of increased trading activity.
5. Analyze the price action accompanying the volume breakout candles. Breakouts often indicate a surge in buying or selling pressure, potentially leading to significant price moves or trend reversals.
6. Combine the analysis of volume breakout candles with other technical analysis tools, such as trend lines, support and resistance levels, or indicators, to confirm potential trade setups.
7. Implement appropriate risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders and position sizing, to manage your trades effectively and protect your capital.
