Volume Block Order AnalyzerCore Concept
The Volume Block Order Analyzer is a sophisticated Pine Script strategy designed to detect and analyze institutional money flow through large block trades. It identifies unusually high volume candles and evaluates their directional bias to provide clear visual signals of potential market movements.
How It Works: The Mathematical Model
1. Volume Anomaly Detection
The strategy first identifies "block trades" using a statistical approach:
```
avgVolume = ta.sma(volume, lookbackPeriod)
isHighVolume = volume > avgVolume * volumeThreshold
```
This means a candle must have volume exceeding the recent average by a user-defined multiplier (default 2.0x) to be considered a significant block trade.
2. Directional Impact Calculation
For each block trade identified, its price action determines direction:
- Bullish candle (close > open): Positive impact
- Bearish candle (close < open): Negative impact
The magnitude of impact is proportional to the volume size:
```
volumeWeight = volume / avgVolume // How many times larger than average
blockImpact = (isBullish ? 1.0 : -1.0) * (volumeWeight / 10)
```
This creates a normalized impact score typically ranging from -1.0 to 1.0, scaled by dividing by 10 to prevent excessive values.
3. Cumulative Impact with Time Decay
The key innovation is the cumulative impact calculation with decay:
```
cumulativeImpact := cumulativeImpact * impactDecay + blockImpact
```
This mathematical model has important properties:
- Recent block trades have stronger influence than older ones
- Impact gradually "fades" at rate determined by decay factor (default 0.95)
- Sustained directional pressure accumulates over time
- Opposing pressure gradually counteracts previous momentum
Trading Logic
Signal Generation
The strategy generates trading signals based on momentum shifts in institutional order flow:
1. Long Entry Signal: When cumulative impact crosses from negative to positive
```
if ta.crossover(cumulativeImpact, 0)
strategy.entry("Long", strategy.long)
```
*Logic: Institutional buying pressure has overcome selling pressure, indicating potential upward movement*
2. Short Entry Signal: When cumulative impact crosses from positive to negative
```
if ta.crossunder(cumulativeImpact, 0)
strategy.entry("Short", strategy.short)
```
*Logic: Institutional selling pressure has overcome buying pressure, indicating potential downward movement*
3. Exit Logic: Positions are closed when the cumulative impact moves against the position
```
if cumulativeImpact < 0
strategy.close("Long")
```
*Logic: The original signal is no longer valid as institutional flow has reversed*
Visual Interpretation System
The strategy employs multiple visualization techniques:
1. Color Gradient Bar System:
- Deep green: Strong buying pressure (impact > 0.5)
- Light green: Moderate buying pressure (0.1 < impact ≤ 0.5)
- Yellow-green: Mild buying pressure (0 < impact ≤ 0.1)
- Yellow: Neutral (impact = 0)
- Yellow-orange: Mild selling pressure (-0.1 < impact ≤ 0)
- Orange: Moderate selling pressure (-0.5 < impact ≤ -0.1)
- Red: Strong selling pressure (impact ≤ -0.5)
2. Dynamic Impact Line:
- Plots the cumulative impact as a line
- Line color shifts with impact value
- Line movement shows momentum and trend strength
3. Block Trade Labels:
- Marks significant block trades directly on the chart
- Shows direction and volume amount
- Helps identify key moments of institutional activity
4. Information Dashboard:
- Current impact value and signal direction
- Average volume benchmark
- Count of significant block trades
- Min/Max impact range
Benefits and Use Cases
This strategy provides several advantages:
1. Institutional Flow Detection: Identifies where large players are positioning themselves
2. Early Trend Identification: Often detects institutional accumulation/distribution before major price movements
3. Market Context Enhancement: Provides deeper insight than simple price action alone
4. Objective Decision Framework: Quantifies what might otherwise be subjective observations
5. Adaptive to Market Conditions: Works across different timeframes and instruments by using relative volume rather than absolute thresholds
Customization Options
The strategy allows users to fine-tune its behavior:
- Volume Threshold: How unusual a volume spike must be to qualify
- Lookback Period: How far back to measure average volume
- Impact Decay Factor: How quickly older trades lose influence
- Visual Settings: Labels and line width customization
This sophisticated yet intuitive strategy provides traders with a window into institutional activity, helping identify potential trend changes before they become obvious in price action alone.

█ TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS
Exceeding Bars Management
The script dynamically adjusts the number of bars used in the volume profile calculation based on the selected timeframe and the maximum allowed bars (max_bars_back).
If the total number of bars exceeds the predefined threshold (6000 bars), the script reduces the lookback period (lookback_bars) by trimming some of the historical data, ensuring the chart does not become overloaded with data.
The adjustment is made based on the ratio of bars per candle (bars_per_candle), ensuring that the volume profile remains computationally efficient while maintaining its relevance.
█ EXAMPLE USE CASES
1. Visible Range Mode
For analyzing a recent trend and focusing on only the visible part of the chart, enabling the "Use Visible Chart Range" option calculates the profile based on the current view, without considering historical data outside the visible area.
2. Fixed Lookback Depth
For analyzing a specific period in the past (e.g., the last 200 bars), disabling the visible range and setting a fixed lookback depth of 200 bars ensures the profile always considers the last 200 bars, regardless of the visible range.
3. Custom Resolution
If there’s a need for greater control over the timeframe used for volume profile calculations (e.g., using a 5-minute resolution on a 15-minute chart), enabling custom resolution and setting the desired timeframe provides this control.

These could indicate:
A breakout when aligned with strong buyer pressure.
A sell-off when aligned with strong seller pressure.
React to Background Colors:
* Green Background (Strong Buyer Pressure):
Suggests buyers are dominating the market, and upward momentum is likely.
Use this signal to consider buying opportunities, especially if volume is above average.
* Red Background (Strong Seller Pressure):
Indicates sellers are in control, and prices might fall.
Use this signal to consider selling or shorting opportunities.
* Gray Background (Neutral Market):
Reflects indecision; avoid entering trades during these periods unless other signals support a strategy.
Volume Confirmation:
Combine volume analysis with buyer/seller pressure to confirm trends.
Example: A high daily volume with strong buyer pressure signals a high-probability uptrend.
Set Alerts:

Who Can Benefit:
* Day Traders: Quickly assess intraday market dynamics and volume trends.
* Swing Traders: Identify breakout opportunities or reversal points based on strong buyer/seller pressure.
* Volume Analysts: Compare historical volume averages to current conditions for deeper insights.
Limitations:
Does not guarantee success—should be combined with other technical indicators or strategies.
In low-volume markets, signals may produce false positives or unreliable results.
Assumes traders have basic knowledge of price action and volume analysis.
By integrating this indicator into your strategy, you gain a powerful tool to analyze buyer/seller dominance alongside volume trends, improving your market timing and trade execution.
The Buyer and Seller Pressure components in this indicator provide crucial insights into the market's sentiment and momentum by analyzing the price action relative to the trading volume. Here's how they are used:
1. Buyer Pressure:
Formula:
Buyer Pressure = (Close − Open) / (High − Low )
Interpretation:
* A high buyer pressure (≥ 0.75) indicates strong bullish sentiment, where the price closes much higher than it opened, and the range (high-low) is sufficiently wide.
* It identifies periods of aggressive buying, often signaling potential bullish trends or confirming upward momentum.
2. Seller Pressure:
Formula:
Seller Pressure = (Close − Open ) / (High -Low )
Interpretation:
*A high seller pressure (≥ 0.75) suggests strong bearish sentiment, where the price closes much lower than it opened, within a wide range.
*It helps identify periods of aggressive selling, signaling potential bearish trends or downward momentum.
Purpose in the Indicator:
1. Market Sentiment Analysis:
* Buyer Pressure and Seller Pressure allow traders to gauge market sentiment—whether buyers or sellers dominate a particular time frame.
* This helps in identifying trend reversals or confirmations.
2. Decision-Making Framework:
* The indicator uses thresholds (default 0.75) to classify the market into:
* Strong Buy Signal: When buyer pressure is dominant.
* Strong Sell Signal: When seller pressure is dominant.
* Neutral Signal: When neither buyer nor seller pressure dominates.
*This classification provides a straightforward decision-making tool for traders.
Risk Management:
*By identifying periods of strong buying or selling, traders can avoid entering trades in highly volatile or one-sided markets, which helps reduce risk.
Volume Confirmation:
*Integrating volume data with buyer/seller pressure helps confirm trends. For example:
*High buyer pressure accompanied by higher-than-average volume strengthens the bullish signal.
*Similarly, high seller pressure with higher-than-average volume confirms bearish signals.
Trade Timing:
*The indicator highlights conditions of potential entry (strong buy) or exit (strong sell), allowing traders to time their trades better based on real-time market activity.
Use Case:
*Example:
*Suppose the indicator shows Buyer Pressure = 0.85 with daily volume above the 3-day average. This combination suggests strong bullish activity with momentum, signaling a buy opportunity.
*Conversely, if Seller Pressure = 0.80 with volume above the 5-day average, it signals strong bearish momentum, ideal for selling or shorting.
This indicator combines buyer/seller pressure with volume dynamics, making it valuable for short-term and intraday traders looking for precise market entries and exits.
The background color in this indicator plays an important visual role in helping traders quickly identify the market sentiment based on buyer and seller pressure. It provides a dynamic, color-coded background that changes depending on the strength of the market's buying or selling activity.
Here's how it works:
Background Color Logic:
1. Green Background (Strong Buy Signal):
*Condition: The background turns green when buyer pressure is greater than or equal to 0.75 (strong buying pressure).
*Interpretation: A green background indicates that there is significant bullish sentiment in the market, with strong buying activity. Traders can interpret this as an environment conducive to buying or holding long positions.
*Visual Effect: This helps to quickly spot bullish market conditions, reinforcing potential entry signals for buyers.
2.Red Background (Strong Sell Signal):
*Condition: The background turns red when seller pressure is greater than or equal to 0.75 (strong selling pressure).
*Interpretation: A red background indicates that the market is dominated by selling, showing strong bearish sentiment. Traders can consider this as a signal to sell or short the asset.
*Visual Effect: The red background highlights moments when the market is heavily selling, prompting traders to either exit long positions or take short positions.
Gray Background (Neutral/Indecision Zone):
Condition: The background turns gray when neither buyer nor seller pressure exceeds 0.75. This means the market is neutral, with no dominant bullish or bearish sentiment.
Interpretation: A gray background suggests market indecision or balance between buyers and sellers. It can indicate periods of consolidation or sideways movement where no strong trend is forming.
Visual Effect: The gray background helps traders avoid entering trades when the market lacks a clear direction or when the sentiment is neutral, reducing risk during indecisive times.
Practical Use:
Instant Visual Confirmation:
*Traders can use the background color as an instant confirmation of the market’s sentiment. For instance, if the background turns green, traders might feel more confident in making a long (buy) trade.
*If the background turns red, it serves as a strong visual cue to short or exit a long position.
Helps with Trade Timing:
*The background color can be used in conjunction with other indicators and volume data to time entries and exits more effectively. For example:
*A green background with strong volume indicates a strong trend that could justify a buy.
*A red background with a significant volume surge signals strong selling pressure, which could prompt a sell.
Simplifies Market Analysis:
*For traders who prefer visual cues over complex analysis, the background color simplifies market conditions. Instead of focusing on individual numbers or values, the color-coded background gives them a quick, intuitive view of the market sentiment.
Summary:
* Green background = Strong buying pressure (bullish sentiment)
* Red background = Strong selling pressure (bearish sentiment)
* Gray background = Neutral market (indecision or balance between buyers and sellers)
This background color functionality helps traders stay aware of the prevailing market sentiment at a glance, providing an intuitive way to guide trading decisions.

Multi-Timeframe Volume-Weighted RSIA multiple timeframe volume-weighted RSI.
Blue Line = Current Time Frame
Orange Line = Select your desired Time Frame
e.g. Blue = Daily, Orange = Weekly
1. Incorporates Market Commitment
Value: By factoring in volume, the volume-weighted RSI captures the intensity of trading activity behind price movements.
Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI measures price momentum but does not differentiate between moves with high or low trading activity.
A volume-weighted RSI assigns greater importance to price changes occurring on high volume, reflecting stronger market conviction.
2. Improved Signal Reliability
Value: Signals generated by a volume-weighted RSI (e.g., overbought or oversold conditions) may be more reliable because they account for the level of trader participation.
Why it’s useful:
Low-volume price movements often result in false signals or "noise."
A volume-weighted RSI helps filter out such noise, reducing the likelihood of false breakouts or fake reversals.
3. Better Divergence Detection
Value: Divergences between price action and the RSI (bullish or bearish divergences) are more meaningful when confirmed by volume.
Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI might show divergence in price momentum, but this divergence might lack substance if the underlying volume is weak.
A volume-weighted RSI ensures that divergence signals align with periods of significant market participation.
4. Enhanced Trend Analysis
Value: Trends supported by strong volume are given more weight, helping traders better identify and follow trends.
Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI might show overbought or oversold signals prematurely during strong trends.
Volume-weighted RSI considers whether trends are backed by significant market activity, helping avoid early exits.
5. More Meaningful Overbought/Oversold Levels
Value: Levels like 70 (overbought) and 30 (oversold) are more credible when supported by volume.
Why it’s useful:
In a regular RSI, overbought or oversold levels might occur on light trading, leading to false reversals.
A volume-weighted RSI ensures these levels are triggered by substantial market participation, increasing their reliability.
Practical Applications:
Trend Confirmation: Use the volume-weighted RSI to confirm whether momentum in a trend is supported by strong participation.
Divergence Spotting: Identify divergences with more confidence by prioritizing those with volume support.
Filtering False Breakouts: Avoid entering trades during weak volume phases by focusing on volume-weighted RSI signals.
Limitations:
Market Type Dependency: Its usefulness may diminish in low-volume assets or markets where volume data is unavailable (e.g., forex).
Volume Flow ConfluenceVolume Flow Confluence (CMF-KVO Integration)
Core Function:
The Volume Flow Confluence Indicator combines two volume-analysis methods: Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) and the Klinger Volume Oscillator (KVO). It displays a histogram only when both indicators align in their respective signals.
Signal States:
• Green Bars: CMF is positive (> 0) and KVO is above its signal line
• Red Bars: CMF is negative (< 0) and KVO is below its signal line
• No Bars: When indicators disagree
Technical Components:
Chaikin Money Flow (CMF):
Measures the relationship between volume and price location within the trading range:
• Calculates money flow volume using close position relative to high/low range
• Aggregates and normalizes over specified period
• Default period: 20
Klinger Volume Oscillator (KVO):
Evaluates volume in relation to price movement:
• Tracks trend changes using HLC3
• Applies volume force calculation
• Uses two EMAs (34/55) with a signal line (13)
Practical Applications:
1. Signal Identification
- New colored bars after blank periods show new agreement between indicators
- Color intensity differentiates new signals from continuations
- Blank spaces indicate lack of agreement
2. Trend Analysis
- Consecutive colored bars show continued indicator agreement
- Transitions between colors or to blank spaces show changing conditions
- Can be used alongside other technical analysis tools
3. Risk Considerations
- Signals are not predictive of future price movement
- Should be used as one of multiple analysis tools
- Effectiveness may vary across different markets and timeframes

Volume-Adjusted Schaff Trend Cycle (VASTC)Volume-Adjusted Schaff Trend Cycle (VASTC)
The VASTC is a fairly fast-moving oscillator designed to identify trends early and signal when trends may be nearing their end. While it can be used for both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies , it shines in trend-following setups. It’s particularly useful for catching the start of a trend and giving early warnings that a trend might end soon, making it a valuable addition to a multi-indicator system.
How It Works:
The VASTC adapts the traditional Schaff Trend Cycle by adjusting the MACD component with volume data. This volume-adjusted MACD is run through two stochastic processes , applying exponential smoothing to enhance responsiveness. Volume sensitivity allows the VASTC to adapt dynamically to periods of high or low trading activity, providing more reliable trend signals.
Recommended Use:
Use VASTC in confluence with other indicators to confirm trend entries and exits. It’s best for identifying early trend setups rather than sustaining prolonged trend trades. When used alongside other indicators, especially those with a longer-term outlook or momentum based trend indicators, you’ll gain a clearer signal for potential exits or entries. Always backtest the VASTC on your chosen assets to determine the most effective input parameters, as the defaults may not suit all markets or assets. Different assets behave differently, and adjustments in parameters can improve its ability to analyze the assets you're looking at.
Parameters:
Length : Sets the primary smoothing length.
Fast/Slow Length : Adjust the speed of the volume-adjusted MACD component.
Factor : Controls the final smoothing applied to the STC.
Overbought/Oversold Levels : Defines overbought/oversold levels.
Experiment with these settings to customize the VASTC to your trading strategy and asset.
Disclaimer : This indicator is a tool to complement your trading analysis and should not be used in isolation. Always backtest and use other confluence signals for best results. The assets I looked at when making this indicator are almost certainly different than what you're looking at.
Layered Volume Delta (LVD) BarsThis volume indicator shows buying and selling delta pressure in each bar.
Volume Wave Trend ConfirmationUtility of the Indicator
The core utility of this indicator lies in its ability to utilize volume, a less frequently exploited metric in MACD analysis, providing several strategic advantages:
Trend Confirmation: By focusing on volume, the indicator confirms whether movements in price are backed by significant trading activity. A rising MACD line above the signal line, paired with increasing volume, can confirm the strength of an uptrend. Conversely, if the histogram turns negative while the MACD line falls below the signal line during a price drop, it confirms a robust downtrend.
Early Warning Signals: Changes in the histogram and divergences between the MACD and Signal lines can serve as early warnings of potential reversals or slowdowns in market momentum. For instance, a shrinking histogram in an uptrend might suggest that the upward movement is losing steam.
Market Sentiment: The integration of volume into the MACD framework allows the indicator to provide insights into underlying market sentiment. Higher volumes during price movements indicate stronger conviction among traders, making the trend more reliable.
Indicator Functionality
The "Volume Wave Trend Confirmation" indicator is built on the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) framework, but with a unique twist: it uses the smoothed moving averages (SMA) of trading volumes instead of price. The indicator calculates two specific SMAs of the volume — a shorter 33-period SMA and a longer 100-period SMA — and computes their difference. This difference is then used as the input for the MACD calculation, with typical parameters set at 12, 26, and a signal line of 9.
MACD Line (Blue): Represents the main line, calculated as the difference between the 12-period and 26-period exponential moving averages (EMA) of the volume difference.
Signal Line (Orange): A 9-period EMA of the MACD line, acting as a trigger for buy or sell signals.
Histogram (Blue/Purple): Measures the distance between the MACD line and the Signal line, colored blue when positive (above the Signal line) and purple when negative (below the Signal line).
Candlestick based on volume
This code is an indicator for drawing custom candle charts based on volume and analyzing price fluctuations and trends. A specific description is provided below:
Main functions and analysis details
Cumulative Volume Calculation
Accumulates the volume of all bars and calculates the cumulative volume. This gives an idea of the total volume of volume.
Counter Calculation
The value of the counter is determined by continuously dividing the accumulated volume by 2. This counter shows the change in volume.
Calculation of Counter Change and Duration
When the value of the counter changes, the duration of the change is calculated. This tells us how long the change in volume lasted.
Calculation of slope and angle
The slope is calculated from the amount of change in the counter and the period of time it took for the counter to change, and the angle is calculated from the slope. This allows you to visualize the trend of the volume change and the direction of the trend.
Setting Counter Color and Background Color
Set the color of the counter based on the period of change. Longer periods are displayed in red, and shorter periods in green. The background color also changes based on the angle, indicating the strength and direction of the trend.
Drawing Custom Candles
Draw custom candles based on volume changes. As the counter changes, a new candle is formed, highlighting the price movement.
Display of simple moving averages (SMA)
Calculates the average of prices over a selected period of time and displays that average. This smoothes out price trends and fluctuations and clearly shows the direction of the trend.
Comparison of the upper and lower lengths of candles
Calculates the upper and lower lengths of each candle (lower half and upper half) and changes the color of the SMA based on which is longer. This visualizes the effect of price fluctuations due to the shape of the candles.
Key Points of Use
Trend Analysis: Analyze the direction and strength of a trend using custom candles based on volume, background color, and tilt angle.
Change highlighting: Visually highlight important points with counter changes and flags.
Price Averaging: Use SMA to smooth price trends, reduce noise, and determine trend direction.
Volume DiffusionIndicator Overview
This indicator calculates potential volume (volume) based on the highest and lowest prices within a specified time period and displays it on the chart. This allows you to visually analyze the relationship between price fluctuations and volume.
How to use
Enter set values:.
setlength: Specify the period of time. The default value is 20. The calculation is based on the highest and lowest prices within this period.
sample_interval: Specifies the sampling interval. The default value is 1, sampling is done every bar. This is used to adjust the amount of data.
Display on chart:.
Blue line: highprice_ (highest price during the period).
Red line: Displays the lowprice_ (lowest price in the period).
Green line: Displays the potential volume (Potential_volume). It is the total volume at which the price changed.
Orange/purple step line: Displays volume_cal (calculated volume). This is the calculated volume change based on historical volume.
Interpretation:.
Change in highs and lows: As highs and lows change, the potential volume is updated accordingly. This allows us to track volume changes at key price levels.
volume_cal changes: Track volume changes and analyze how volume changes when prices reach highs and lows.
Reasons why smaller time frames work better
Data Density:.
Smaller timeframes (e.g., 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes) provide more bars, so price fluctuations and volume changes can be observed in detail. This allows the indicator to update more frequently and accurately reflect the relationship between price and volume.
Quick Reaction:.
With shorter time frames, price fluctuations and volume changes are captured more quickly, making the indicator calculations more sensitive. This allows for immediate analysis of short-term volume changes.
High-precision calculations:.
With longer time frames, there is less data to calculate and volume changes may not be fully reflected. With shorter time frames, the relationship between price changes and volume can be more precisely determined.
Cautions
Data volume limitations: Pine Script™ has limitations on the amount of data that can be used. If you are working with data over a long period of time, errors may occur when attempting to process large amounts of data. It is important to set the sampling interval (sample_interval) appropriately to control the amount of data.
Calculation performance: Even when using small time periods, performance can be affected by the complexity of the calculation. Pay attention to the sampling interval and the efficiency of the calculation.
The indicator can be used to better understand the relationship between price fluctuations and volume to help analyze and improve trading strategies. In particular, it allows for more accurate analysis on shorter time frames.
PriceCatch Volume Analysis Fixed RangeHi TV Community.
It's been sometime since I published any script / utility. But today, I am back with a new script.
Volume Analysis
Studying volume when in trade or before taking one is very important as seasoned traders would tell you. So, this script helps you to look at volume over a specific interval from current bar. You will have to set the look-back period in the settings dialog.
The script will then show over that period :
Number of Up and Down bars
Volume Ratio of Up Volume over Down Volume
Actual Up and Down Volume
Percentage of Up Volume to Down Volume
I use this information in all my trades and hope that you will also find this Script useful.
To my knowledge, I have not seen another volume analysis script that helps see volume in the way this script does.
NOTE:
This script does not give any buy or sell signal if that is what you are looking for. But if you see that Up Volume is 3 times Down Volume, then that should mean something to you. So also when price is slipping down.

I am sharing this Script without any warranties as to its usability. Use it only if you like it. As always when it comes to trading you and you alone are responsible for your actions.
All the best with your trades.

Volume RSIRelative strength index based on volume data.
Indicate volume momentum, and help you define divergences on volume.
The goal is to have an idea and represent in another form volumes and kept eyes on volume momentum on a certain period.
RSI is an indicator about the strength, I keep the oversold/overbought thresholds. I think it still makes sense to interpret.
the calculations is simple, we use the average volume up (avg_vol_up) and average volume down (avg_vol_down) over the period.
then calculate the relatives strength : ( avg_vol_up / ( avg_vol_up + avg_vol_down ) ) * 100
The period is 14 by default. The period is used for calculating mean.
I also add MA it helps to have a global look on the indicator.
In my code I used the idea of @Padronhosnai in his code "positve/negative volume" to get volumes in the right form.
For pictures I also use his indicator it's the one above.
Effective Volume Z-ScoreThis indicator aims at responding the question: is the current trend supported by volume?
The concept and formula
The central concept is the Effective Volume, calculated as follow:
effectiveVolume = volume * (close - open) / (high - low)
Then the Effective Volume Z-Score indicator is calculated by smoothing the effective volume and applying the z-score function:
zscore(x) = (x - mean) / stdev
Essentially, the indicator's value represents the number of standard deviations of the effective volume away from the mean.
How to use it
This indicator should be used for trend confirmation.
For an uptrend, the bigger the indicator value, the greater the volume support, while for a downtrend, the lower the indicator value, the greater the volume support.
Divergences are also important, as with every volume indicator.
Volume Quartile IndicatorThe Volume Quartile Indicator is a tool designed to analyze and classify trading volumes based on quartile levels, offering traders a visual means to assess market strength and momentum. This indicator calculates volume levels using a default length of 60 periods to determine the quartiles at 10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, and 90%. Each quartile range is represented by a specific color, providing a clear, visual representation of volume intensity relative to historical data.
Color-Coded Volume Strength: Volume strength is visually represented through a color-coded system for quick and intuitive analysis:
Red: Volume below the 10% level indicates very weak market activity.
Orange: Volume between 10% and 30% signifies weak market activity.
Gray: Volume in the 30% to 50% range represents medium activity with a weak bias.
Silver: Volume between 50% and 70% indicates medium activity with a strong bias.
Blue: Volume in the 70% to 90% range denotes strong market activity.
Green: Volume above the 90% level signifies very strong market activity.
Special Volume Markers: Yellow diamond markers highlight volumes that stand out due to their significance, providing traders with visual cues for potential market entry or exit points.
Q-Lines: The indicator draws q-lines at the 70%, 90%, and the midpoint between these two levels. The convergence of these q-lines suggests potential volatility in volume, which could significantly impact price movements.
The Volume Quartile Classification Indicator is atool for traders looking to incorporate volume analysis into their trading strategy.
Volume Spike IndicatorHello dear traders,
Today we're discussing an indicator I've coded: the Volume Spike Indicator (VSI).
The indicator isn't a groundbreaking invention and certainly not a novelty. Nevertheless, I haven't seen this version of the indicator on TradingView before, so I'd like to introduce it.
1. The Origin of the Idea:
We're all familiar with volume charts: A volume chart visually represents the trading activity for a specific asset over a certain period, indicating the total number of shares or contracts traded.
We also know that volume spikes can significantly impact the market. A volume spike represents an extreme anomaly, a day, week, or month with an extraordinary amount of trading. However, recognizing these spikes in practice isn't always straightforward. What constitutes high volume? How do we define and identify it? The answers to these questions aren't easy.
It's commonly said that a volume spike could be identified if the volume is 25% more than the average of the two weeks prior, but how do you measure this 25%? It's not always easy to calculate, especially in real-time.
This challenge led me to develop the concept into an indicator.
How Does It Work?
Imagine being able to "feel" the market's energy like a surfer feels the ocean. The VSI does something similar by examining trading volume and comparing it to what has been typical over the past few weeks. Here's a quick look at the magic behind it:
Step 1: Establishing the Baseline: We start by establishing a baseline, i.e., the average trading volume over a given period. Let's use the last 10 days as the default setting. We choose 10 days because, in the traditional stock market, 10 days represent two weeks if you subtract weekends. This gives us a fixed line to compare against.
Step 2: Recognizing Peaks: Next, we look for days when the trading volume significantly exceeds this average. The size of the jump is where you have a say. You can set a threshold, such as 25%, to define what you consider a volume spike.
Step 3: The Calculation: This is where the math comes into play. We calculate the percentage change in today's volume compared to the average volume of the last 10 days. For example, if today's volume is 30% above the average and you've set your threshold at 25%, the VSI will recognize this as a spike.
Step 4: Visual Cue: These spikes are then plotted on a graph, with each spike represented as a bar. The height of the bar indicates the spike's percentage size, so you can see at a glance how significant a spike is.
Step 5: Intuitive Color Coding: For quick analysis, the VSI employs a color-coding system. Exceptionally high peaks, such as those exceeding a 100% increase, are highlighted in blue to emphasize their importance. Other peaks are shown in red, creating a visual hierarchy for quick volume data interpretation.
Why This Matters:
Identifying these spikes can help pinpoint the beginning or end of a trend. The idea is that when trading peaks at a certain level, there might be no more buyers or sellers willing to engage at that price level. Volume peaks, and a reversal is likely imminent. It's a simple yet effective concept. Therefore, it's crucial to use this indicator in the context of the trend, as not every spike carries the same significance.
Customizable:
The beauty of the VSI lies in its flexibility. Trading futures? You might want to adjust the averaging period to 14 days to better suit your market. You have full control over the settings to tailor them to your trading style.
Interpreting the Figures:
A positive percentage indicates a volume spike above the average – the higher the percentage, the more significant the spike.
If the percentage exceeds a certain threshold (which you can set, e.g., 25%), it signals a volume spike, indicating increased market activity that could precede significant price movement.
What makes the VSI genuinely adaptable is your ability to tweak the parameters to suit your needs.
Are you trading in a volatile market? Extend the SMA period to smooth out the noise. Trading in a 24-hour market? Adjust the length of your SMA. Seeking finer details? Shorten it. The VSI is yours to adapt to your trading strategy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As we wrap up this introduction to the Volume Spike Indicator, I hope you're as excited about its potential as I am. This tool, born out of curiosity and a desire for clarity in the vast ocean of market data, is designed to be your ally in navigating the waves of trading activity.
Remember, the true power of the VSI lies not just in its ability to highlight significant volume spikes, but in its adaptability to your unique trading style and needs. Whether you're charting courses through the tumultuous seas of day trading or navigating the broader currents of long-term investments, the VSI is here to offer insights and guidance.
I encourage you to experiment with it, customize it, and see how it can enhance your trading strategy. And as you do, remember that every tool, no matter how powerful, is just one piece of the puzzle. Combine the VSI with your knowledge, experience, and intuition to make informed and strategic trading decisions.
Thank you for taking the time to explore the Volume Spike Indicator with me.

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.
Volume Support and Resistance*In a cutting system, from the lowest price of the red momentum to the highest price of the green momentum of the range of candles, cuts of different heights are created and the volume of transactions is calculated.
*Volumes in red and green candles each layer are calculated separately.
*The start of the candles can be from a candle other than zero.
*The maximum number of cuts for support or resistance will be separate and user-opinionated. This will help us see the most accurate support or resistance independently and quickly.
*The layer that has (1) the highest volume ratio of green to red, (2) the lowest number of red candles and (3) the highest number of green candles is considered as the best resistance and vice versa as the best support. Therefore, by changing the maximum number of cuts, we should look for the largest ratio of green to red volume for resistance and vice versa for support.
*If the current price is in the range of the momentum candle, the distance of the highest or lowest price of the momentum to hlc3 of the momentum candle will be checked.
*if you get an error message (> 500ms), reduce high_slice or loockback.
*Trading volume is formatted because it varies from very small to very large numbers in different markets and time periods.
Projected VolumeOverview
The indicator displays the expected volume up to the closing time of the session.
Calculations
The real volume is proportional to the projected volume, just as elapsed session time is proportional to entire trading session. Knowing the actual volume, the elapsed time of the session and the total time of the trading session, it is possible to find out the projected volume.
How It Works
On the last volume bar, the indicator shows the projected volume overlapped with the real volume.
How To Use
Assuming that any price movement is of little relevance if not confirmed with considerable volume, if a strong signal appears on the intraday chart but with low volume, we can overlook it as the projected volume on the daily chart is high and indicates that there is a high chance of directional movement for the day. In short, even if we have an entry signal with low volume on the intraday chart, it will still be viable to open a trade as long as on the daily chart the projected volume is high, i.e, above the moving average.
Inputs
Use 24 hours in Trading Hours input for nonstop markets, like crypto and forex, or set the specific trading hours for other market types like stocks. The projected volume will be displayed on all timeframes if the value is equal to 24. For other values it will be displayed on the 1-day chart only.
Volume-Weighted RSI with Adaptive SmoothingThis indicator is designed to provide traders with insights into the relative strength of a security by incorporating volume-weighted elements, effectively combining the concepts of Relative Strength Index (RSI) and volume-weighted averages to generate meaningful trading signals.
The indicator calculates the traditional RSI, which measures the speed and change of price movements, as well as the volume-weighted RSI, which considers the influence of trading volume on price action. It then applies adaptive smoothing to the volume-weighted RSI, allowing for customization of the smoothing process. The resulting smoothed volume-weighted RSI is plotted alongside the original RSI, providing traders with a comprehensive view of the price strength dynamics.
The line coloration in this indicator is designed to provide visual cues about the relationship between the RSI and the volume-weighted RSI. When the RSI line is above or equal to the volume-weighted RSI line, it suggests a potentially bullish condition with positive market momentum. In such cases, the line is colored lime. Conversely, when the RSI line (fuchsia) is below the volume-weighted RSI line, it indicates a potentially bearish condition with negative market momentum. The line color is set to fuchsia. By observing the line color, traders can quickly assess the relative strength between the RSI and the volume-weighted RSI, aiding their decision-making process.
The bar color and background color further enhance the visual interpretation of the indicator. The bar color reflects the RSI's relationship with the volume-weighted RSI and the predefined thresholds. If the RSI line is above both the volume-weighted RSI line and the overbought threshold (70), the bar color is set to lime, indicating a potentially overbought condition. Conversely, if the RSI line is below both the volume-weighted RSI line and the oversold threshold (30), the bar color is set to fuchsia, suggesting a potentially oversold condition. When the RSI line is between these two thresholds, the bar color is set to yellow, indicating a neutral or intermediate state. The background color, displayed with a semi-transparent shade, provides additional context by reflecting the prevailing market conditions. It turns lime if the volume-weighted RSI is above the overbought threshold, fuchsia if below the oversold threshold, and yellow if it falls between these two thresholds. This coloration scheme aids traders in quickly assessing market conditions and potential trading opportunities.
Calculations:
-- RSI Calculation : The traditional RSI is calculated based on the price movements of the asset. The up and down movements are determined, and exponential moving averages are used to smooth the values. The RSI value ranges from 0 to 100, with levels above 70 indicating overbought conditions and levels below 30 indicating oversold conditions.
-- Volume-Weighted RSI Calculation : The volume-weighted RSI incorporates the trading volume of the asset into the calculations. The closing price is multiplied by the corresponding volume, and the average is taken over a specific length. The up and down movements are smoothed using exponential moving averages to generate the volume-weighted RSI value.
-- Adaptive Smoothing : The indicator offers an adaptive smoothing option, allowing traders to customize the smoothing process of the volume-weighted RSI. By adjusting the smoothing length, traders can fine-tune the responsiveness of the indicator to changes in market conditions. Smoothing helps reduce noise and enhances the clarity of the signals.
Interpretation:
The indicator provides two main components for interpretation:
-- RSI : The traditional RSI reflects the price momentum and potential overbought or oversold conditions. Traders can look for RSI values above 70 as potential overbought signals, suggesting a possible price reversal or correction. Conversely, RSI values below 30 indicate potential oversold signals, indicating a potential price rebound or rally.
-- Volume-Weighted RSI : The volume-weighted RSI incorporates trading volume, which provides insights into the strength of price movements. When the volume-weighted RSI is above the traditional RSI, it suggests that the buying pressure supported by higher volume is stronger, potentially indicating a more reliable trend. Conversely, when the volume-weighted RSI is below the traditional RSI, it suggests that the selling pressure supported by higher volume is stronger, potentially indicating a more significant price reversal.
Potential Strategies:
-- Overbought and Oversold Signals : Traders can utilize the RSI component of the indicator to identify overbought and oversold conditions. A potential strategy is to consider taking short positions when the RSI is above 70 and long positions when the RSI is below 30. These levels can act as dynamic support and resistance areas, indicating possible price reversals.
-- Confirmation with Volume : Traders can use the volume-weighted RSI as a confirmation tool to validate price movements. When the volume-weighted RSI is above the traditional RSI, it may provide additional confirmation for long positions, suggesting stronger buying pressure. Conversely, when the volume-weighted RSI is below the traditional RSI, it may provide confirmation for short positions, indicating stronger selling pressure.
-- Trend Reversal Strategy : Watch for the volume-weighted RSI to reach extreme levels above 70 (overbought) or below 30 (oversold). Look for a reversal signal where the RSI line (green or fuchsia) crosses below or above the volume-weighted RSI line. Enter a trade when the reversal signal occurs, and the RSI line changes color. Exit the trade when the RSI line crosses back in the opposite direction or reaches the opposite extreme level.
-- Divergence Strategy : Compare the direction of the RSI line (green or fuchsia) with the volume-weighted RSI line. A bullish divergence occurs when the RSI line makes higher lows while the volume-weighted RSI line makes lower lows. A bearish divergence occurs when the RSI line makes lower highs while the volume-weighted RSI line makes higher highs. Once a divergence is identified, wait for the RSI line to cross above or below the volume-weighted RSI line as confirmation of a potential trend reversal. Consider using additional indicators or price action analysis to time the entry more accurately. Use stop-loss orders and profit targets to manage risk and secure profits.
-- Trend Continuation Strategy : Assess the overall trend direction by observing the RSI line's position relative to the volume-weighted RSI line. When the RSI line consistently stays above the volume-weighted RSI line, it indicates a bullish trend, while the opposite suggests a bearish trend. Look for temporary pullbacks within the ongoing trend where the RSI line (green or fuchsia) touches or crosses the volume-weighted RSI line. Enter trades in the direction of the dominant trend when the RSI line crosses back in the trend direction. Exit the trade when the RSI line starts to deviate significantly from the volume-weighted RSI line or when the trend shows signs of weakening through other technical or fundamental factors.
Limitations:
-- False Signals : Like any indicator, the "Volume-Weighted RSI with Adaptive Smoothing" may produce false signals, especially during periods of low liquidity or choppy market conditions. Traders should exercise caution and consider using additional confirmation indicators or tools to validate the signals generated by this indicator.
-- Lagging Nature : The indicator relies on historical price data and volume to calculate the RSI and volume-weighted RSI. As a result, the signals provided may have a certain degree of lag compared to real-time price action. Traders should be aware of this inherent lag and consider combining the indicator with other timely indicators to enhance the accuracy of their trading decisions.
-- Parameter Sensitivity : The indicator's effectiveness can be influenced by the choice of parameters, such as the length of the RSI, smoothing length, and adaptive smoothing option. Different market conditions may require adjustments to these parameters to optimize performance. Traders are encouraged to conduct thorough testing and analysis to determine the most suitable parameter values for their specific trading strategies and preferences.
-- Market Conditions : The indicator's performance may vary depending on the prevailing market conditions. It is essential to understand that no indicator can guarantee accurate predictions or consistently profitable trades. Traders should consider the broader market context, fundamental factors, and other technical indicators to complement the insights provided by the "Volume-Weighted RSI with Adaptive Smoothing" indicator.
-- Subjectivity : Interpretation of the indicator's signals involves subjective judgment. Traders may have varying interpretations of overbought and oversold levels, as well as the significance of the volume-weighted RSI in relation to the traditional RSI. It is crucial to combine the indicator with personal analysis and trading experience to make informed trading decisions.
Remember, no single indicator can provide foolproof trading signals. The "Volume-Weighted RSI with Adaptive Smoothing" indicator serves as a valuable tool for analyzing price strength and volume dynamics. It can assist traders in identifying potential entry and exit points, validating trends, and managing risk. However, it should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy that considers multiple factors and indicators to increase the likelihood of successful trades.
High Liquidity Zones and Threshold VolumeThe High Liquidity Zones indicator is designed to identify areas of significant liquidity in the market. It helps traders recognize regions where trading volume is notably higher, indicating potential areas of increased market activity and interest.
The indicator calculates the average volume over a specified lookback period, which can be customized according to individual preferences. This average volume acts as a reference point to determine the threshold volume level. The threshold percentage input allows users to set the sensitivity of the indicator, defining the minimum volume required for an area to be considered a high liquidity zone.
When the current volume surpasses the threshold volume level, the indicator highlights these areas as high liquidity zones. This visual representation allows traders to quickly identify and focus on periods of heightened trading activity. The high liquidity zones are marked with square shapes below the histogram, providing a clear visual indication on the chart.
The first plot line represents the threshold volume level as a histogram, showing the volume levels in relation to the threshold. This histogram helps traders assess the magnitude of the volume in the identified high liquidity zones.
The second plot line represents the threshold volume's simple moving average (SMA) over the lookback period. The SMA acts as a reference line, smoothing out fluctuations in the threshold volume and providing a more stable measure of high liquidity zones. Traders can use this line to better understand the overall trend and dynamics of liquidity.
The High Liquidity Zones indicator offers flexibility, allowing traders to adapt it to their preferred trading style and timeframe. By adjusting the lookback period and threshold percentage, users can fine-tune the sensitivity of the indicator based on their trading strategies and market conditions.
Furthermore, traders can combine the High Liquidity Zones indicator with other technical analysis tools to confirm trading signals or identify areas of potential support and resistance. It can help them locate price levels where market participants have a substantial presence and where significant buying or selling pressure may occur.
Overall, the High Liquidity Zones indicator is a valuable tool for traders seeking to gain insights into market liquidity dynamics. By highlighting areas of intense trading activity, it assists in making informed trading decisions and identifying opportunities within the market.
