Money Flow Divergence IndicatorOverview
The Money Flow Divergence Indicator is designed to help traders and investors identify key macroeconomic turning points by analyzing the relationship between U.S. M2 money supply growth and the S&P 500 Index (SPX). By comparing these two crucial economic indicators, the script highlights periods where market liquidity is outpacing or lagging behind stock market growth, offering potential buy and sell signals based on macroeconomic trends.
How It Works
1. Data Sources
S&P 500 Index (SPX500USD): Tracks the stock market performance.
U.S. M2 Money Supply (M2SL - Federal Reserve Economic Data): Represents available liquidity in the economy.
2. Growth Rate Calculation
SPX Growth: Percentage change in the S&P 500 index over time.
M2 Growth: Percentage change in M2 money supply over time.
Growth Gap (Delta): The difference between M2 growth and SPX growth, showing whether liquidity is fueling or lagging behind market performance.
3. Visualization
A histogram displays the growth gap over time:
Green Bars: M2 growth exceeds SPX growth (potential bullish signal).
Red Bars: SPX growth exceeds M2 growth (potential bearish signal).
A zero line helps distinguish between positive and negative growth gaps.
How to Use It
✅ Bullish Signal: When green bars appear consistently, indicating that liquidity is outpacing stock market growth. This suggests a favorable environment for buying or holding positions.
❌ Bearish Signal: When red bars appear consistently, meaning stock market growth outpaces liquidity expansion, signaling potential overvaluation or a market correction.
Best Timeframes for Analysis
This indicator works best on monthly timeframes (M) since it is designed for long-term investors and macro traders who focus on broad economic cycles.
Who Should Use This Indicator?
📈 Long-term investors looking for macroeconomic trends.
📊 Swing traders who incorporate liquidity analysis in their strategies.
💰 Portfolio managers assessing market liquidity conditions.
🚀 Use this indicator to stay ahead of market trends and make informed investment decisions based on macroeconomic liquidity shifts! 🚀
ZenAlgo - BenderThis script combines several volume-based methodologies into a single chart overlay to help traders analyze market participation and volume distribution. It aggregates volume from multiple sources—spot and perpetual markets across different exchanges—and processes it to display various insights directly on the chart.
The script provides a detailed view of both individual-bar volume and broader aggregated trends. It calculates certain values, plots different shapes and overlays, and includes an optional informational table. However, it does not offer financial signals or predict future price movements. Instead, it presents multiple volume and range-related highlights for educational or analytical observations.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the core elements in this script:
Core Data Calculation and Aggregation
To build a comprehensive volume picture, the script retrieves volume data from multiple predefined exchanges for both Spot and Perpetual pairs. The volume for each bar is processed in Aggregated mode , meaning it combines data across selected sources to produce a single composite volume value.
The script applies average-based aggregation to calculate the final volume figures. The total volume is then used as the basis for further calculations, such as buy/sell volume decomposition and Delta analysis.
Buy/Sell Volume Decomposition
Each bar’s total volume is separated into an estimated buy portion and a sell portion. This decomposition uses logic that considers wick length, body size, and whether the bar closed higher or lower than it opened. The script assigns fractions of the total volume to the upper wick, lower wick, and body, then multiplies these by the total aggregated volume to estimate buy and sell volumes.
This breakdown is calculated separately for spot-only volume , perp-only volume , and their aggregated sums, allowing traders to analyze how much of each bar’s volume is estimated as "buy" or "sell."
Delta and Cumulative Delta
The script computes a Delta (buy volume minus sell volume) for each bar. A positive Delta suggests more buying during that bar, while a negative Delta suggests more selling.
It also computes Cumulative Delta , summing this Delta over 14 bars (a fixed period). This allows users to observe how short-term buy/sell imbalances accumulate over time.
Visual Bar Coloring (PVSRA Logic)
The script includes logic based on PVSRA (Price Volume Support Resistance Analysis) , which examines average volume over a recent lookback period to determine whether a bar meets certain "climax" or "above-average" thresholds.
Bars are categorized as:
Climax Up or Climax Down: If a bar meets strong volume and range conditions, it is identified as a high-activity bar.
Neutral Colors: Bars that do not meet the threshold are identified as standard volume bars.
Table Summaries
The script includes an optional Spot vs. Perpetual volume table that provides:
Aggregated Spot vs. Perpetual buy/sell volumes
The net difference between buying and selling
The total sum across all included sources
Percentage breakdown of buying vs. selling
A separate multi-timeframe table calculates volume-related metrics for fixed timeframes (15, 60, and 240 minutes), allowing traders to compare their current timeframe with broader trends.
Highlighted Shapes and Diamonds
The script places shape markers above or below bars when certain conditions are met, including:
Dots (circles): Representing a significant increase in net Delta compared to the previous bar.
Diamonds: Markers that appear when volume-based conditions align with predefined thresholds. These vary in size and include an optional "Hardcore Mode" , which applies stricter filtering.
Crossover Triangles: These appear when the internally computed Delta MA (a moving average of Delta) crosses above or below a predefined EMA.
These markers highlight notable changes in volume, Delta, or price action but do not constitute predictive trading signals.
Delta Averages and Overlaid EMAs
The script plots a histogram of the current net Delta (buy minus sell) . Additionally, a Delta Moving Average (Delta MA) is used for tracking trends. The Delta MA is plotted alongside predefined Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) , such as:
A Delta MA calculated using an exponential moving average (EMA) over 21 bars.
A set of predefined EMAs (lengths such as 3, 5, 7, 10, 13, 16, 21, 25, etc.) plotted to visualize momentum changes.
Areas between these EMAs can be filled with translucent shading to highlight momentum shifts.
Comparing the Delta MA to the overlaid EMAs helps track changes in Delta momentum over time.
Interpreting the Elements
When using this script, consider the following:
Volume Aggregation: The script aggregates volume across multiple Spot and Perpetual sources to provide a broad market view.
Delta and Cumulative Delta: The Delta histogram may spike positively or negatively, highlighting areas of potential buying or selling pressure.
Table Data: If enabled, the tables display buy/sell volume splits for Spot and Perpetual markets, along with multi-timeframe comparisons.
EMA Overlays on Delta: The stacked EMAs help visualize short-term vs. longer-term Delta changes.
Shape Markers: Dots, diamonds, and triangles emphasize notable shifts in volume or Delta but do not imply recommendations for action.
Usage Tips
Toggle "Hardcore Mode" to apply stricter filtering to highlight conditions.
Enable or disable the Spot vs. Perpetual Table to see if the breakdown of volume sources is useful.
Use the multi-timeframe table to compare intraday data with broader trends.
If the chart appears too cluttered, toggle off features like PVSRA color tints or some EMAs to focus on specific elements.
Final Thoughts
This script integrates multiple volume-based calculations, range analysis, aggregated volume from predefined tickers, and various moving averages for Delta. Its visual layers—color-coded bars, histograms, shape markers, and tables—offer a rich perspective on market activity.
Users can analyze these elements across any timeframe or market combination they prefer. The script does not provide buy/sell signals or make predictions —it is purely an analytical tool for understanding volume-based market dynamics.
Traders should interpret these visual elements according to their own strategy and trading approach.

Volume Delta & Order Block Suite [QuantAlgo]Upgrade your volume analysis and order flow trading with Volume Delta & Order Block Suite by QuantAlgo, a sophisticated technical indicator that leverages advanced volume delta calculations, along with dynamic order block detection to provide deep insights into market participant behavior. By calculating the distribution of volume between buyers and sellers and tracking pivotal volume zones, the indicator helps traders understand the underlying forces driving price movements. It is particularly valuable for those looking to identify high-probability trading opportunities based on volume imbalances and key price levels where significant activity has occurred.
🟢 Technical Foundation
The Volume Delta & Order Block Suite utilizes sophisticated volume analysis techniques to estimate buying and selling pressure within each price candle. The core volume delta calculation employs a formula that estimates buy volume as: Volume × (Close - Low) ÷ (High - Low) , with sell volume calculated as the remainder of total volume. This approach assumes that when price closes near the high of a candle, most volume represents buying pressure, and when price closes near the low, most volume represents selling pressure.
For order block detection, the indicator implements a multi-step process involving volume pivot identification and price state tracking. It first detects significant volume pivot points using the ta.pivothigh function with a user-defined pivot period. It then tracks the market's order state based on whether the high exceeds the highest high or the low falls below the lowest low. When a volume pivot occurs, the indicator creates order blocks based on price levels at that pivot point. These blocks are continuously monitored for invalidation based on subsequent price action.
🟢 Key Features & Signals
1. Volume Delta Representation on Candles
The Volume Delta visualization on candles shows the buy/sell distribution directly on price bars, creating an immediate visual representation of volume pressure.
When buyers are dominant, candles are colored with the bullish theme color (default: green/teal).
Similarly, when sellers are dominant, candles are colored with the bearish theme color (default: red).
This visualization provides immediate insights into underlying volume pressure without requiring separate indicators, helping traders quickly identify which side of the market is in control.
2. Buy/Sell Pressure Information Table
The Volume Analysis Table provides a comprehensive breakdown of volume metrics across multiple timeframes, helping traders identify shifts in market behavior.
The table is organized into four timeframe columns:
Current Volume
1 Bar Before
1 Day Before
1 Week Before
For each timeframe, the table displays:
Buy volume: The estimated buying volume based on price action
Sell volume: The estimated selling volume based on price action
Total volume: The sum of buy and sell volume
Delta: The difference between buy and sell volume (positive when buyers are dominant, negative when sellers are dominant)
Additionally, the table shows both absolute values and percentage distributions, with trend indicators (Up, Down, or Neutral) at the bottom row of each timeframe column.
This multi-timeframe approach helps traders:
→ Identify volume imbalances between buyers and sellers
→ Track changes in volume delta across different periods
→ Compare current conditions with historical patterns
→ Detect potential reversals by watching for shifts in delta direction
The delta values are particularly useful as they provide a clear indication of market dominance – positive delta (Up) when buyers are dominant, and negative delta (Down) when sellers are dominant.
3. Order Blocks and Their Confluence
Order blocks represent significant price zones where volume pivots occur, potentially indicating areas of significant market participant activity.
The indicator identifies two types of order blocks:
Bullish Order Blocks (support): Highlighted with a green/teal color, these represent potential support areas where price might bounce when revisited
Bearish Order Blocks (resistance): Highlighted with a red color, these represent potential resistance areas where price might reverse when revisited
Each order block is visualized as a colored rectangle with a dashed line showing the average price within the block. The blocks are extended to the right until they are invalidated.
Order blocks can serve as key reference points for trading decisions, for example:
Support/resistance identification
Stop loss placement (beyond the opposite edge of the block)
Potential reversal zones
Target areas for profit-taking
When price approaches an order block, traders should look for confluence with the volume delta on candles and the information in the volume analysis table. Strong setups occur when all three components align – for example, when price approaches a bearish order block with increasing sell volume shown on the candles and in the volume table.
🟢 Practical Usage Tips
→ Volume Analysis and Interpretation: The indicator visualizes the buy/sell volume ratio directly on price candles using color intensity, allowing traders to immediately identify which side (buyers or sellers) is dominant. This information helps in assessing the strength behind price movements and potential continuation or reversal signals.
→ Order Block Trading Strategies: The indicator highlights significant price zones where volume pivots occur, marking these as potential support (bullish order blocks) or resistance (bearish order blocks). Traders can use these levels to identify potential reversal points, stop placement, and profit targets.
→ Multi-timeframe Volume Comparison: Through its comprehensive volume analysis table, the indicator enables traders to compare volume patterns across current, recent, daily, and weekly timeframes. This helps in identifying shifts in market behavior and confirming the strength of ongoing trends.
🟢 Pro Tips
Adjust Pivot Period based on your timeframe:
→ Lower values (3-5) for more frequent order blocks
→ Higher values (7-10) for stronger, less frequent order blocks
Fine-tune Mitigation Method based on your trading style:
→ "Wick" for more conservative invalidation
→ "Close" for more lenient order block survival
Look for confluence between components:
→ Strong volume delta in the expected direction when price touches an order block
→ Corresponding patterns in the volume analysis table
→ Overall market context aligning with the expected direction
Use for multiple trading approaches:
→ Support/resistance trading at order blocks
→ Trend confirmation with volume delta
→ Reversal detection when volume delta changes direction
→ Stop loss placement using order block boundaries
Combine with:
→ Trend analysis using trend-following indicators for trade confirmation
→ Multiple timeframe analysis for strategic context
ZenAlgo - DetectorThis script combines multiple volume data sources, calculates several forms of volume-based metrics, displays a table for Spot vs. Perpetual volumes, and visualizes several technical elements (such as cumulative delta, divergences, fractals, and specialized moving averages). The primary objective is to help analyze volume activity across different exchanges, compare Spot vs. Perpetual markets, and observe how shifting volumes may coincide with price action characteristics. This description aims to clarify each component, explain how the calculations are performed, and show you how to interpret the various chart markings.
Why Combine These Metrics in One Script?
Many publicly available volume-related tools focus only on a single exchange or a single type of volume (like spot or futures). This script merges multiple exchange sources for spot and perpetual data into a unified view. By doing so, users can detect discrepancies or confirm alignment between different markets without juggling multiple indicators. It also processes volume-derived signals (delta, divergences, fractals, etc.) in one place, sparing you from manually combining various standalone scripts. Through this integration, it becomes easier to observe how price and volume interact across different market segments.
Core Concept: Aggregated Volume
The script begins by collecting volumes from multiple exchanges in two categories:
Spot volumes – Typically aggregated under symbols ending with "USDT" or a user-selected currency, and
Perpetual volumes – From perpetual futures contracts (e.g., symbols ending in "USD.P" or "USDT.P").
All these exchange volumes are requested via the built-in request.security() function in a single line for each exchange. The user can enable or disable each exchange in the inputs. The script then calculates an "aggregated volume" for Spot, an aggregated volume for Perpetual, and an overall combined total.
This aggregated volume is used later to break down how much of each bar's volume can be considered "buy" or "sell" based on the bar's candle structure (body vs. wicks).
Volume-Based Calculations: Buy vs. Sell Volume and Delta
For each bar, the script estimates how much of the aggregated volume can be associated with a "buy side" and a "sell side."
Volume Buy is computed if the bar's close is above the open , giving more weight to the candle's body and allocating some portion of volume to the wicks as well.
Volume Sell is similarly computed if the bar's close is below the open .
This results in a Delta value: Delta = (Buy Volume) – (Sell Volume).
Additionally, the script accumulates these values over a user-defined "lookback length" to provide Cumulative Delta . This can help show longer-term directional volume bias.
Table: Spot vs. Perpetual Comparison
There is a toggle ("Show Spot vs Perpetual Table") that displays an on-chart table comparing volumes:
Buy Volume and Sell Volume for each aggregated category (Spot, Perp, and their sum).
Delta (the difference between Buy and Sell).
Percentage breakdowns of buy vs. sell portions.
This table only appears on the most recent bar and helps users quickly assess how Spot and Perpetual volumes compare, plus the overall total.
PVSRA Color Coding
A "PVSRA-style" color approach classifies each bar based on volume and candle range:
Climax Up (lime) or Climax Down (red) occurs if volume is extremely high relative to a simple moving average of volume and range.
Above-Average Up (blue) or Down (fuchsia) occurs if volume is moderately higher than average.
Otherwise, colors fall back to neutral up/down colors.
This allows you to spot potentially high-volume "climax" bars vs. bars with only moderate or typical volume levels.
Fractals and Divergences
The script detects certain fractal points on the aggregated volumes (sum of buy or sell volumes). It looks for a 5-bar pattern (with the current bar in the middle for top or bottom fractals).
When a fractal is confirmed on buy volume, the script checks if new higher price highs coincide with lower buy-volume peaks (or vice versa) to highlight regular or hidden divergences.
Similar logic is applied on the sell-volume side if new lower price lows occur alongside higher sell-volume troughs (or the opposite).
If enabled in the settings, lines and labels may appear on the chart to mark these divergence points.
"Delta Dot" Events
This script draws small circles above or below bars when the total delta changes magnitude relative to the previous bar by certain user-defined multipliers. It segregates "tiny," "small," "large," and "extra" expansions in bullish or bearish delta.
Bullish Dots : Appear above the bar when the new positive delta is multiple times bigger than the previous positive delta.
Bearish Dots : Appear below the bar in a similar fashion for negative delta.
These dots emphasize large or sudden shifts in buy/sell pressure from one bar to the next.
Delta MA and its Direction
A moving average is calculated on the total delta and optionally multiplied by a factor (in the code, by 4) to make it visually prominent. The user can pick from SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA as the smoothing technique.
Delta MA Direction : The script compares the current delta MA to a short SMA of itself to define whether it is rising or falling.
A color is assigned—blue if rising, orange if falling, gray if they're roughly equal.
This helps quickly visualize longer-term momentum in the net delta metric.
Divergences on the Delta MA
After computing the "Delta MA" line, the script detects pivot highs or lows on that line. If the price makes a new high but the Delta MA pivot is lower (and vice versa), it draws lines and small labels indicating potential divergence.
Bearish Divergence : Price makes a higher high, while the Delta MA pivot forms a lower high.
Bullish Divergence : Price makes a lower low, while the Delta MA pivot forms a higher low.
RSI + MFI Computation
The script also calculates a simplified form of RSI+MFI by comparing (close – open) / (high – low) * a multiplier , then smoothing it with a simple average. This is purely for an optional observational measure to see if the price action is leaning bullish or bearish in terms of these combined indicators.
EMA Overlay and Diamond Shapes
There are two standard EMAs (13 and 21). The script checks whether price is above or below these EMAs, in addition to other conditions (like changes in delta, volume, or RSI+MFI direction) to draw diamond shapes at the top or bottom of the chart:
Green Diamonds near the bottom if the conditions line up to suggest that the environment is more favorable for bullish pressure.
Red Diamonds near the top if the environment suggests more bearish pressure.
These diamonds come in two sizes:
Normal – More pronounced, typically plotted if RSI+MFI result is above/below zero.
Small – Plotted if RSI+MFI is on the other side of that threshold.
An optional "Hardcore Mode" adds special tiny diamonds under specific delta color/condition mismatches.
How to Interpret the Chart Elements
Line Plots of Buy and Sell Volumes : A positive line for buy volume, a negative line for sell volume, and a zero-line for reference. This provides at-a-glance perspective on how buy or sell volumes add up per bar.
Histogram "Total Delta" : A color-coded bar that quickly shows whether overall buy vs. sell volume is dominant. The color is governed by the PVSRA logic (e.g., potential climax or above-average conditions).
Volume Table (when enabled): Summarizes volumes in numeric and percentage form for Spot, Perp, and total categories on the last bar.
Delta Dots : Small circles highlighting abrupt changes in delta magnitude. Larger multiples indicate bigger jumps compared to the previous bar.
Fractals & Divergence Lines : Connect pivot points in buy/sell volume or in the Delta MA line with price highs/lows to indicate potential divergences.
Delta MA Plot : Smooth curve (scaled up x4) to reflect longer-term accumulation or distribution in the delta. Colored by whether the MA is above or below a short average of itself.
Diamonds : Appear when certain volume, price, RSI+MFI, and delta conditions converge. Green diamonds near the bottom typically coincide with bullish conditions, red diamonds near the top with bearish conditions.
Practical Usage Notes
Use the Spot vs. Perp breakdown to see if these two market segments differ significantly in their contributions to total volume. This can be informative when a certain type of market (futures vs. spot) might be "driving" price action.
The PVSRA color scheme highlights "climax" or "above-average" volume bars, which can sometimes appear around major reversals or breakouts.
Observing divergences in aggregated buy/sell volume (or in the Delta MA line) can provide additional context on whether certain price moves are backed by strong volume involvement.
The script's fractal divergences rely on short pivot detection. Signals will appear only after enough bars have passed for confirmation, so these are effectively "after-the-fact" notations to illustrate possible volume/price divergences.
The diamonds do not necessarily instruct any buy/sell action; rather, they mark conditions where multiple volume and momentum criteria line up in one direction.
Important Considerations
This script displays aggregated volumes from potentially multiple exchanges. Each exchange or pair might have different time zones, liquidity, or data availability, which can occasionally result in incomplete or zero values.
All references to "buy" or "sell" volume are approximate breakdowns based on candle structure. They are not absolute measures of real-time order flow.
Divergences and fractal points are provided strictly for analytical insight. They can repaint or shift if the fractal conditions were not fully confirmed in real time.
The color-coded lines, histograms, diamonds, and tables are strictly to guide analysis of volume fluctuations and do not claim to predict future price performance.
If you enable "Hardcore Mode," you will see additional diamond markers. This mode is mainly intended as an extra highlight of certain "contradictory" delta conditions.
Summary
The "ZenAlgo - Detector" script brings together a variety of volume-based analyses:
Aggregated volumes from multiple exchanges
A breakdown into Spot vs. Perpetual activity
Delta calculations, fractal divergences, and a specialized Delta Moving Average
Color-coded bars reflecting possible PVSRA concepts
A table to highlight numeric differences and percentages
Additional overlays (e.g., diamonds, RSI+MFI synergy, etc.)
In contrast to many free, single-exchange indicators, this script centralizes multiple exchange volumes in one place, making it easier to observe and compare volume flows across different market types (spot vs. perpetual). Users no longer need to rely on scattered tools or separate overlays to check volume divergences, fractals, or specialized MA calculations—everything is unified here. By carefully monitoring the table, Delta histogram, color-coded bars, divergence lines, and diamond markers, traders can more comprehensively evaluate how volume and price interact. Each plot is designed to showcase different aspects of volume flow—such as whether spot or derivatives markets dominate, if volume is skewed toward buying or selling, and if there are divergences between volume momentum and price movement.
All computations are displayed to help you carry out a more informed market analysis. It is strongly advised to combine these observations with other risk management or analytical methods, rather than relying on any single indicator alone.

⧎ Total Volume At Level (Total volume at the price area)
◭ Total Buy Volume At Level (Total buy volume at the price area)
⧩ Total Sell Volume At Level (total sell volume at the price area)
Each metric comes with a corresponding symbol.
That said, until you become comfortable with the symbol, you can also turn on the descriptive labels setting!
The image above exemplifies the feature.
The image above shows Footprint IQ's full power!
Additionally, traders with an upgraded TradingView plan can make use of the "1-Second" feature Footprint IQ offers!
The image above shows each footprint generated using 1-second volume data. 1-second data is highly granular compared to 1-minute data and, consequently, each footprint is exceptionally more accurate!
Imbalance Detection
Footprint IQ pro is capable of detecting user-defined delta imbalances.
The image above further explains how Footprint IQ detects imbalances!
The imbalance percentage is customizable in the settings, and is set to 70% by default.
Therefore,
When net delta is positive, and the positive net delta constitutes >=70% of the total volume, a buying imbalance will be detected (upwards triangle).
When net delta is negative, and the negative net delta constitutes >=70% of the total volume, a buying imbalance will be detected (downwards triangle).
Stacked Imbalance Detection
In addition to imbalance detection, Footprint IQ Pro can also detect stacked imbalances!
The image above shows Footprint IQ Pro detecting stacked imbalances!
Stacked imbalances occur when consecutive imbalances at sequential price areas occur. Stacked imbalances are generally interpreted as significant price moves that are supported by volume, rather than a significant result with disproportionate effort.
The criteria for stacked imbalance detection (how many imbalances must occur at sequential price areas) is customizable in the settings.
The default value is three. Therefore, when three imbalances occur at sequential price areas, golden triangles will begin to print to show a stacked imbalance.
Additionally, traders can set alerts for when stacked imbalances occur!
Highest +Delta and Highest -Delta Levels
In addition to being a fully-fledged Footprint indicator, Footprint IQ Pro goes one step further by detecting price areas where the greater +Delta and -Delta are!
The image above shows price behavior near highest +Delta price areas detected by Footprint IQ!
These +Delta levels are considered important as there has been strong interest from buyers at these price areas when they are traded at.
It's expected that these levels can function as support points that are supported by volume.
The image above shows a similar function for resistance points!
Blue lines = High +Delta Detected Price Areas
Red lines = High -Delta Detected Price Areas
Value Area Detection
Similar to traditional volume profile, Footprint IQ Pro displays the value area per bar.
Green lines next to each footprint show the value area for the bar. The value area % is customizable in the settings.
CVD Levels
Footprint IQ Pro is capable of storing historical volume delta information to provide CVD measurements at each price area!
The image above exemplifies this feature!
When this feature is enabled, you will see the CVD of each price area, rather than the net delta!
And that's it!
Thank you so much to TradingView for offering the greatest charting platform for everyone to create on!
If you have any feature requests you'd like to see for Footprint IQ, please feel free to share them with us!
Thank you!

Volume Delta with PVSRAVolume Delta with PVSRA
Volume Delta with PVSRA is an advanced volume indicator that dissects each bar’s volume into its directional components using higher resolution data. It visually distinguishes between buying and selling volume, so that for a bullish candle the bottom portion represents buying volume and for a bearish candle it represents selling volume. A dot is plotted at the 50% mark of the candle’s total volume, serving as a clear reference point.
Key Features:
Directional Volume Breakdown:
The indicator calculates the delta volume by analyzing lower timeframe data. The bottom portion of a bullish candle (displayed in green) represents buying volume, while that of a bearish candle (displayed in red) represents selling volume.
PVSRA Analysis:
Using Price-Volume Spread Range Analysis, the indicator compares the current volume to the 10-bar average. When volume is significantly higher (using thresholds of 150% and 200%), the candle borders are highlighted in custom colors, indicating medium or strong volume conditions.
Volume Moving Averages:
Three moving averages are plotted:
Total Volume MA (yellow): Tracks overall volume.
Buying Volume MA (green) and Selling Volume MA (red): These are re-centered around the total volume MA. A crossover of the green over the red typically signals rising buying pressure, while the opposite indicates increasing selling pressure.
Scalable Volume Bars:
The indicator scales the volume bars to provide optimal visualization on your chart.
Setup Instructions:
For best results, open your chart settings, navigate to the Canvas tab, and set the bottom margin to 0%. This ensures the indicator displays like a standard volume indicator without any unwanted gaps at the bottom.
Customize the various settings—including colors, border opacity, and moving average parameters—to suit your trading style.
Aggregation BTC CVDThe script calculates the Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) for multiple cryptocurrency exchanges, then averages these values and plots them.
Indicator Setup:
The script sets up an indicator called "BTC Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) for multiple cryptocurrency exchanges", displayed as a separate panel (not overlaid on the price chart) with volume format.
Getting 1-minute data from multiple exchanges:
It retrieves 1-minute data (buy and sell volumes) for Bitcoin (BTC) against USD or USDT from several exchanges: Binance, OKEx, Coinbase (both BTCUSDT and BTCUSD), Bitfinex, Bybit, Huobi, and Kraken.
Calculating total buying and selling volume for each exchange:
For each exchange, it calculates the total buying volume (buy_vol_...), selling volume (sell_vol_...), and the difference between them (delta_vol_...).
It then computes the cumulative delta volume (cum_delta_vol_...), which is a running total of delta_vol_....
Calculating the average CVD:
It calculates the average cumulative delta volume (average_cum_delta_vol) by summing the cumulative delta volumes from all exchanges and dividing by the number of exchanges.
Plotting the average CVD:
Finally, it plots the average CVD with white color, and a line width of 2.
This script essentially provides an averaged Cumulative Volume Delta across multiple exchanges, giving a comprehensive view of buying and selling pressure in the Bitcoin market across these platforms.
Volume Zones Internal Visualizer [LuxAlgo]The Volume Zones Internal Visualizer is an alternate candle type intended to reveal lower timeframe volume activity while on a higher timeframe chart.
It displays the candle's range, the highest and lowest zones of accumulated volume throughout the candle, and the Lower Timeframe (LTF) candle close, which contained the most volume in the session (Candle Session).
🔶 USAGE
The indicator is intended to be used as its own independent candle type. It is not a replacement for traditional candlesticks; however, it is recommended that you hide the chart's display when using this indicator. Another option is to display this indicator in an additional pane alongside the normal chart, as displayed above.
The display consists of candle ranges represented by outlined boxes, within the ranges you will notice a transparent-colored zone, a solid-colored zone, and a line.
Each of these displays different points of volume-related information from an analysis of LTF data.
In addition to this analysis, the indicator also locates the LTF candle with the highest volume, and displays its close represented by the line. This line is considered as the "Peak Activity Level" (PAL), since throughout the (HTF) candle session, this candle's close is the outcome of the most volume transacted at the time.
We are further tracking these PALs by continuing to extend them into the future, looking towards them for potential further interaction. Once a PAL is crossed, we are removing it from display as it has been mitigated.
🔶 DETAILS
The indicator aggregates the volume data from each LTF candle and creates a volume profile from it; the number of rows in the profile is determined by the "Row Size" setting.
With this profile, it locates and displays the highest (solid area) and lowest (transparent area) volume zones from the profile created.
🔶 SETTINGS
Row Size: Sets the number of rows used for the calculation of the volume profile based on LTF data.
Intrabar Timeframe: Sets the Lower Timeframe to use for calculations.
Show Last Unmitigated PALs: Choose how many Unmitigated PALs to extend.
Style: Toggle on and off features, as well as adjust colors for each.
ZenAlgo - Aggregated DeltaZenAlgo - Aggregated Delta is an advanced market analysis tool designed to provide traders with a holistic view of market sentiment by leveraging multi-exchange volume aggregation, cumulative delta analysis, and divergence detection. Unlike traditional indicators that rely on a single data source, this tool aggregates order flow data from multiple exchanges, reducing the impact of exchange-specific anomalies and liquidity disparities.
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to enhance their understanding of market dynamics, trend confirmations, and order flow patterns. By intelligently combining multiple analytical components, it eliminates the need for manually interpreting separate indicators and offers traders a streamlined approach to market analysis.
This indicator was inspired by aggregated volume analysis techniques. Independently developed with a focus on cumulative delta and divergence detection.
Key Features & Their Interaction
Multi-Exchange Volume Aggregation: Aggregates buy and sell volumes from up to nine major exchanges, including Binance, Bybit, Coinbase, and Kraken. Unlike traditional single-source indicators, this ensures a robust, diversified measure of market sentiment and smooths out exchange-specific volume fluctuations.
Cumulative Delta Analysis: Tracks the net difference between buy and sell volumes across all aggregated exchanges, helping traders identify true buying/selling pressure rather than misleading short-term volume spikes.
Advanced Divergence Detection: Unlike basic divergence indicators, this tool detects divergences not only between price and cumulative delta but also across multiple analytical layers, including moving averages and temperature zones, offering deeper confirmation signals.
Dynamic Market Temperature Zones: Unlike fixed overbought/oversold indicators, this feature applies adaptive standard deviation-based filtering to classify market conditions dynamically as "Extreme Hot," "Hot," "Neutral," "Cold," and "Extreme Cold."
Intelligent Market State Classification: Determines whether the market is in a Full Bull, Bearish, or Neutral state by analyzing multi-exchange volume flow, cumulative delta positioning, and market-wide liquidity trends.
Real-Time Alerts & Adaptive Visualization: Provides fully configurable real-time alerts for trend shifts, divergences, and market conditions, allowing traders to act immediately on high-confidence signals.
What Makes ZenAlgo - Aggregated Delta Unique?
Unlike free or open-source alternatives, ZenAlgo - Aggregated Delta applies a multi-layered data processing approach to smooth inconsistencies and improve signal reliability. Instead of using raw exchange feeds, the system incorporates adaptive volume aggregation and standard deviation-based market classification to ensure accuracy and reduce noise. These enhancements lead to more precise trend signals and a clearer representation of market sentiment.
Multi-Exchange Order Flow Validation: Unlike single-source indicators that rely on individual exchange feeds, this tool ensures cross-market consistency by aggregating volume data dynamically.
Fractal-Based Divergence Detection: Detects divergences using fractal logic rather than contextual volume trends, reducing false-positive divergence signals while maintaining accuracy.
Automated Sentiment Analysis: Classifies market sentiment into structured phases (Full Bull, Bearish, etc.), reducing the manual effort needed to interpret order flow trends.
How It Works (Technical Breakdown)
Multi-Exchange Volume Aggregation: The system fetches and validates buy/sell volume data from multiple exchanges, applying volume aggregation techniques to smooth out inconsistencies. It ensures that data from low-liquidity exchanges does not disproportionately influence the analysis.
Cumulative Delta Computation: Cumulative delta is computed as the net difference between buy and sell volumes over a given period. By summing up these values across multiple exchanges, traders can identify real accumulation or distribution zones, reducing false signals from isolated exchange anomalies.
Divergence Detection Methodology: The tool uses a fractal-based logic approach to detect high-confidence divergences across price, volume, and delta trends. This allows for a more structured detection process compared to simple peak/trough analysis, reducing noise in the signals.
Temperature Zones Filtering: Market conditions are dynamically classified using a rolling standard deviation model, ensuring that hot/cold states adjust automatically based on recent volatility levels. This means that instead of using arbitrary fixed thresholds, the tool adapts based on historical data behavior.
Market Sentiment State Calculation: The tool evaluates liquidity conditions, volume trends, and cumulative delta flow, categorizing the market into predefined states (Bullish, Bearish, Neutral). This helps traders assess the broader context of price movements rather than reacting to isolated signals.
Real-Time Adaptive Alerts: The system provides fully configurable alerts that notify traders about key trend shifts, high-confidence divergences, and changes in market conditions as they occur. This ensures that traders can make timely and well-informed decisions.
Why This Approach Works
By aggregating data from multiple exchanges, it reduces the impact of exchange-specific liquidity disparities and anomalies, leading to a more holistic view of order flow.
The cumulative delta analysis ensures that price movements are validated by actual buying/selling pressure, filtering out misleading short-term spikes.
Dynamic market classification adapts to current conditions rather than using outdated fixed thresholds, making it more relevant in different market regimes.
Fractal-based divergence detection avoids common pitfalls of traditional divergence analysis, reducing false signals while maintaining accuracy.
Combining real-time adaptive alerts with well-structured classification improves traders’ ability to respond to market shifts efficiently.
Practical Use Cases
Identifying High-Probability Trend Reversals: If cumulative delta shows bullish divergence while the market is in an Extreme Cold zone, it signals a strong potential for reversal.
Confirming Trend Continuation: When bullish moving average crossovers align with a rising cumulative delta, traders can enter positions with higher confidence.
Detecting Exhaustion in Market Moves: If price enters an "Extreme Hot" zone but cumulative delta starts declining, this suggests trend exhaustion and a possible reversal.
Filtering False Breakouts: If price breaks a resistance level but aggregated buy volume fails to increase, this invalidates the breakout, helping traders avoid bad trades.
Cross-Exchange Sentiment Confirmation: If cumulative delta on aggregated exchanges contradicts price action on an individual exchange, traders can identify localized exchange-based distortions.
Customization & Settings Overview
Exchange Selection: Traders can fine-tune exchange sources for aggregation, allowing for custom market-specific insights.
Adaptive Divergence Settings: Configure detection thresholds, lookback periods, and divergence filtering options to reduce noise and focus on high-confidence signals.
Moving Average Adjustments: Select custom MA types, lengths, and visualization preferences to match different trading styles.
Market Temperature Thresholds: Adjust hot/cold sensitivity to align with preferred risk levels and volatility expectations.
Configurable Alerts & Theme Customization: Full control over notification triggers, color themes, and label formatting to enhance user experience.
Important Considerations
Market Context Dependency: This tool provides order flow analysis, which should be used in conjunction with broader market context and risk management.
Data Source Variability: While multi-exchange aggregation improves reliability, some exchanges may report inaccurate or delayed data.
Extreme Volatility Handling: Large price swings can temporarily distort delta readings, so traders should always validate with additional context.
Liquidity Limitations: In low-liquidity conditions, order flow signals may be less reliable due to fragmented market participation.
Volume Delta with Bollinger Bands [EMA]TL;DR
This indicator displays a “Volume Delta” candle chart based on a lower timeframe approximation of up vs. down volume. Bollinger Bands (using an EMA and a configurable standard deviation multiplier) highlight when Volume Delta exceeds typical volatility thresholds. Green bars will darken when Volume Delta is above the upper Bollinger band, and red bars will darken when Volume Delta is below the lower Bollinger band. You can optionally include wicks in the Bollinger calculations. Note : TradingView uses tick-based volume data, so these values may not precisely match true market orders.
What Is Volume Delta ?
• Volume Delta is a metric that identifies buying vs. selling activity in a market by distinguishing between orders transacting at the ask (buy volume) and orders transacting at the bid (sell volume).
• A positive Volume Delta indicates more buy volume during a bar, while a negative Volume Delta indicates more sell volume.
How TradingView Calculates Volume Delta
• TradingView relies on tick data to approximate up/down volume. This may not perfectly capture true order-flow distribution, particularly on higher timeframes or illiquid symbols.
• While it can provide useful insights into volume flow, keep in mind the underlying data’s limitations.
Key Features of This Indicator
1. Automatic or Custom Lower Timeframe Data
• The script can automatically select a lower timeframe for Volume Delta, or you can manually specify one in the settings.
2. Bollinger Bands on Volume Delta
• Uses an EMA of the Volume Delta (or a wick-based average) and calculates a standard deviation.
• The upper and lower bands highlight when activity deviates from typical volatility.
3. Configurable Wick Inclusion
• Decide whether to use only the “close” (lastVolume) of the Volume Delta bar or the average of its wicks ((maxVolume + minVolume) / 2) for Bollinger calculations.
4. Dynamic Bar Colors
• Positive Volume Delta bars turn dark green if they exceed the upper Bollinger band, otherwise lighter green .
• Negative Volume Delta bars turn dark red if they fall below the lower Bollinger band, otherwise lighter red .
How To Use
1. Add the Indicator to Your Chart
• Apply it to any symbol and timeframe in TradingView.
• Configure the lower timeframe for Volume Delta if desired.
2. Adjust Bollinger Settings
• Bollinger Length defines the EMA and standard deviation period.
• Bollinger Multiplier sets how far the bands lie from the EMA.
3. Choose Whether To Use Wicks
• Toggle to use the average of high/low for a potentially more volatile reading.
• Turn it off to rely solely on the Volume Delta “close.”
4. Interpret the Signals
• Dark Green Above the Upper Band : Suggests strong buying pressure above normal.
• Lighter Green : Positive but within typical volatility bounds.
• Dark Red Below the Lower Band : Suggests strong selling pressure below normal.
• Lighter Red : Negative but within typical volatility.
Important Caveats
• TradingView Volume Data : Tick-based and aggregated data may not reflect actual order-flow precisely.
• Context Matters : Combine Volume Delta with other forms of analysis (price action, support/resistance, etc.) to form a more comprehensive strategy.
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).
Liquidity Trap Detector (LTD)The Liquidity Trap Detector is an advanced trading tool designed to identify liquidity zones and potential traps set by institutional players. It provides traders with a comprehensive framework to align with smart money movements, helping them avoid common retail pitfalls such as bull and bear traps.
The indicator focuses on detecting liquidity sweeps, breaker blocks, and areas of institutional accumulation/distribution. It integrates multiple technical analysis methods to offer high-probability signals and insights into how liquidity dynamics unfold in the market.
Note : This indicator is not designed for beginners; it is intended for traders who already have a solid understanding of trading fundamentals. It is tailored for individuals who are familiar with concepts like liquidity, order blocks, and traps. Traders with at least 6 months to 1 year of trading experience will fully appreciate the power and potential of this indicator, as they will have the necessary knowledge to leverage its features effectively. Beginners may find it challenging to grasp the advanced concepts embedded in this tool.
Why Combine These Elements?
The components of the Liquidity Trap Detector are carefully chosen to address the core challenges of identifying institutional activity and liquidity traps. Here’s why each element is included and how they work together:
1. Order Blocks:
• Purpose: Identify zones where large institutional players accumulate or distribute positions.
• Role in the Indicator: These zones act as primary liquidity areas, where price is likely to reverse or consolidate due to significant order flow.
2. Breaker Blocks:
• Purpose: Highlight areas where liquidity has been swept, leading to potential price reversals or continuations.
• Role in the Indicator: Confirms whether a liquidity trap has occurred and provides actionable levels for entry or exit.
3. ATR-Based Volatility Zones:
• Purpose: Filter signals based on market volatility to ensure trades align with statistically significant price movements.
• Role in the Indicator: Defines dynamic support and resistance zones, improving the accuracy of signal generation.
4. Volume Delta:
• Purpose: Measure the imbalance between aggressive buyers and sellers, often indicating institutional activity.
• Role in the Indicator: Validates whether a liquidity trap is backed by smart money absorption or retail-driven momentum.
5. Trend Confirmation (EMA):
• Purpose: Align liquidity trap signals with the broader market trend, reducing false positives.
• Role in the Indicator: Ensures trades are executed in the direction of the prevailing trend.
What Makes It Unique?
1. Gen 1 Liquidity Zones and Traps:
• The indicator identifies Gen 1 Liquidity Zones, which represent the first areas where liquidity is accumulated or swept. While these zones often lead to reversals, they can sometimes fail, resulting in continuation moves. The indicator highlights these scenarios, helping traders adapt.
• For example, a bull trap identified in a Gen 1 Zone may see price move higher after an initial red candle, completing a secondary liquidity sweep before reversing.
2. Multi-Layer Signal Validation:
• Signals are only generated when liquidity, volume, trend, and volatility align. This ensures high-probability setups and reduces noise in choppy markets.
3. Dynamic Adaptability:
• ATR-based zones and volume delta filtering allow the indicator to adapt to different market conditions, from trending to range-bound environments.
4. Institutional Insights:
• By focusing on liquidity sweeps, order blocks, and volume imbalances, the indicator helps traders align with institutional strategies rather than retail behavior.
How It Works
The Liquidity Trap Detector uses a step-by-step process to identify and validate liquidity traps:
1. Identifying Liquidity Zones:
• Order Blocks: Mark key zones of institutional activity where price is likely to reverse.
• Breaker Blocks: Highlight areas where liquidity sweeps have occurred, signaling potential traps.
2. Filtering with Volatility (ATR):
• ATR defines dynamic support and resistance zones, ensuring signals are only generated near significant price levels.
3. Validating Traps with Volume Delta:
• Volume delta shows whether liquidity sweeps are backed by aggressive buying/selling from institutions, confirming the trap’s validity.
4. Aligning with Market Trends:
• EMA ensures signals align with the broader trend to reduce false positives.
5. Monitoring Gen 1 Liquidity Zones:
• The indicator highlights Gen 1 Liquidity Zones where price may initially reverse or sweep further before a true reversal. Traders are alerted to potential continuation scenarios if volume or momentum suggests unmet liquidity above/below the zone.
How to Use It
Buy Signal:
• Triggered when:
• Price sweeps below an order block and forms a breaker block, indicating a liquidity trap.
• Volume delta confirms aggressive selling absorption.
• ATR volatility zone supports the reversal.
• EMA confirms a bullish trend.
• Action: Enter a Buy trade and set:
• Stop Loss (SL): Below the order block.
• Take Profit (TP): Near the next resistance or liquidity zone.
Sell Signal:
• Triggered when:
• Price sweeps above an order block and forms a breaker block, indicating a liquidity trap.
• Volume delta confirms aggressive buying absorption.
• ATR volatility zone supports the reversal.
• EMA confirms a bearish trend.
• Action: Enter a Sell trade and set:
• SL: Above the order block.
• TP: Near the next support or liquidity zone.
Timeframes:
• Best suited for scalping and intraday trading on lower timeframes (5m, 15m, 1H).
• Can also be applied to swing trading on higher timeframes.
Example Scenarios:
1. Bull Trap in a Gen 1 Zone:
• Price sweeps above a resistance order block, forms a breaker block, and reverses sharply. However, if momentum persists, price may continue higher after a minor pullback. The indicator helps traders anticipate this by monitoring volume and trend shifts.
2. Bear Trap with Secondary Sweep:
• Price sweeps below a support order block but fails to reverse immediately, instead forming a secondary liquidity sweep before turning bullish. The indicator highlights both scenarios, allowing for flexible trade management.
Why Use It?
The Liquidity Trap Detector offers:
1. Precision: Combines multiple filters to identify institutional liquidity traps with high accuracy.
2. Adaptability: Works across trending and range-bound markets.
3. Smart Money Alignment: Helps traders avoid retail traps by focusing on liquidity sweeps and institutional behavior.
Enhanced Cumulative Volume Delta + MAThe Enhanced Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator is designed to help traders analyze the cumulative buying and selling pressure in the market by examining the delta between the up and down volume. By tracking this metric, traders can gain insights into the strength of a trend and potential reversals. This indicator uses advanced volume analysis combined with customizable moving averages to provide a more detailed view of market dynamics.
How to Use This Indicator:
Volume Delta Visualization:
The indicator plots the cumulative volume delta (CVD) using color-coded candles, where teal represents positive delta (buying pressure) and soft red represents negative delta (selling pressure).
Moving Averages:
Use the moving averages to smooth the CVD data and identify long-term trends. You can choose between SMA and EMA for each of the three available moving averages. The first and third moving averages are typically used for short-term and long-term trend analysis, respectively, while the second moving average can serve as a medium-term filter.
Arrow Markers:
The indicator will display arrows (green triangle up for crossing above, red triangle down for crossing below) when the CVD volume crosses the 3rd moving average. You can control the visibility of these arrows through the input parameters.
Volume Data:
The indicator provides error handling in case no volume data is available for the selected symbol, ensuring that you're not misled by incomplete data.
Practical Applications:
Trend Confirmation: Use the CVD and moving averages to confirm the overall trend direction and strength. Positive delta and a rising CVD can confirm an uptrend, while negative delta and a falling CVD indicate a downtrend.
Volume Breakouts: The arrows marking when the CVD crosses the 3rd moving average can help you spot potential volume breakouts or reversals, making them useful for entry or exit signals.
Volume Divergence: Pay attention to divergences between price and CVD, as these can often signal potential trend reversals or weakening momentum.
Wick Volume AlertThis indicator is intended to find a possible price reversal and is well suited for scalping in the smaller timeframes from 1 to 15min chart. It is important to use it in conjunction with other indicators such as order blocks or price levels.
The advantage over other Wick indicators is that volume is also taken into account.
Unfortunately, the markers on the chart do not work properly as they do not attach themselves when moving vertically. I would be happy if someone could fix the problem, as I am not a professional in Pine scripting.
Smashing Pump Delta [by Oberlunar]Smashing Pump Δ by Oberlunar
This is a Crypto Δ Volumetric Pump indicator specifically designed to detect crypto pumps. Its primary goal is to highlight moments when buying volume significantly outweighs selling volume on a lower timeframe, suggesting strong upward momentum in the market.
I can't access to the data feed thus the core of its functionality lies in calculating the volume delta Δ in a simpler way... by measuring the difference between aggregated buy and sell volumes. Buy volume is recorded when a lower timeframe candle closes higher than it opened (green candles), while sell volume is recorded when a candle closes lower than it opened (red candles). By focusing exclusively on these buy and sell imbalances, the indicator naturally leans toward identifying positive surges in activity—the hallmark of a pump.
Unlike dumps, which are often accompanied by panic selling and rapid downward movement, pumps are driven by aggressive buying pressure which in crypto assets is very interesting. This indicator is designed to highlight those spikes in buying volume, helping traders pinpoint moments when a significant upward move might be unfolding. It achieves this by tracking the largest volume delta over recent candles and marking it clearly on the chart.
So, if you’re looking for a tool to spot when the bulls are charging, this indicator is your ally.

- Customizable Colors: Allows you to set different colors for positive and negative delta circles.
- **Lower Time Frame**: Scans data on a lower time frame for greater accuracy.
Important Note on Data
TradingView does not handle market depth data such as order book information. The volume delta calculation is an approximation based on the asset’s volume and price behavior. This means it does not precisely reflect the actual flow of buy or sell orders in the market, but rather an estimate derived from available data.
Conclusion
The **Volume Delta Filtered Overlay v1.1 by Ramtraderbook** is a visual tool that helps quickly identify significant buy or sell volume movements, making it ideal for strategies that rely on order flow analysis. However, it is recommended to combine it with other tools for a more comprehensive analysis.
Volume Delta Filtered v1.1 by RamtraderbookIndicator Explanation: Volume Delta_RTB (Filtered)
General Description
The Volume Delta_RTB (Filtered) indicator is designed to analyze the volume delta of a financial asset and highlight only significant changes based on a configured threshold. This indicator is useful for detecting moments when buying volume exceeds selling volume (or vice versa), providing a clear view of market pressure.
What is Volume Delta?
Volume delta measures the difference between buying and selling volume over a given time period. A positive delta indicates that buying prevails over selling, while a negative delta indicates the opposite.
Indicator Inputs
The indicator has several customizable parameters to suit the user’s needs:
1. Volume Delta Threshold
- Allows you to set a minimum volume delta value.
- Only indicator values that exceed this absolute delta threshold will be displayed.
- Default value: 100,000.
2. Use of a Lower Time Frame
- Option to analyze data from a lower time frame than the main chart.
Operating Logic
1. Selection of the Lower Time Frame
- The indicator scans data from a lower time frame to accurately calculate the volume delta.
- By default, it automatically selects an appropriate lower time frame, though it can be set manually.
2. Calculation of Volume Delta
- Using the `ta.requestVolumeDelta` function, the indicator calculates:
- Volume delta at the start of the period (`openVolume`).
- Maximum delta (`maxVolume`).
- Minimum delta (`minVolume`).
- Last recorded delta (`lastVolume`).
3. Filtering Values
- If the absolute value of `lastVolume` (the last volume delta) is below the configured threshold (`deltaThreshold`), the data will not be displayed on the chart.
- This allows the indicator to highlight only significant movements, avoiding unnecessary noise.
4. Visualization
- Volume delta is represented by candles to facilitate interpretation:
- Yellow candles for positive delta (buying prevails).
- Pink candles for negative delta (selling prevails).
- A horizontal line at `0` serves as a reference.
- Colors can be configured as needed.
5. Data Validation
- If the data provider does not provide volume information for the asset, the indicator will display an error message.
Indicator Advantages
- Efficient Filtering: Focus on the most relevant movements in terms of volume, ignoring small or insignificant values.
- Adaptable: Offers customization options for both the delta threshold and the time frame.
- Clear Visualization: Colored candles make it easier to spot dominant buying or selling trends.
NOTE:
- Estimated Delta Data: Since TradingView does not have access to market depth data or an exact breakdown of buying and selling volume, the delta calculations are approximations based on price and volume behavior.
- Data Provider Dependency: Some assets or instruments may not have volume information available, limiting the indicator’s use.
Binance Perp Premium/DiscountThis TradingView Pine Script indicator calculates and displays the premium or discount percentage between a cryptocurrency's spot price and its corresponding perpetual futures (perp) price on Binance. It automatically detects whether the current chart symbol represents a spot or perp market by checking for the ".P" suffix. The script then retrieves the closing prices for both the spot and perp symbols using the request.security function. If valid data is available for both markets, it computes the premium or discount as a percentage and visualizes this difference as a histogram below the main chart. Green bars indicate a premium (perp price above spot), while red bars signify a discount (perp price below spot). The indicator includes error handling to display 'n/a' when data for the required symbols is unavailable, ensuring robustness across various chart applications.
CDVDThis script calculates and visualizes the Cumulative Delta Volume Divergence (CDVD) with the MACD indicator. It combines volume-based market analysis with MACD-style momentum to help identify false signals with divergences, trends or potential reversals.
The cumulative delta volume divergence is derived by summing up the differences between uptick volume (volume during price increases) and downtick volume (volume during price decreases) over time.
A Fast EMA and Slow EMA are calculated from the cumulative delta volume to smooth the data.
The difference between these EMAs forms the MACD Line.
A Signal Line is created by applying another EMA to the MACD Line.
The difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line forms the Histogram:
This indicator helps traders:
Identify false signals with divergences unseen on MACD and Price Action.
Identify bullish or bearish momentum in market volume.
Spot potential trend reversals based on changes in cumulative delta volume dynamics.
Analyze the interplay between price momentum and volume flow.
It’s especially useful for traders who focus on volume-based market dynamics.
Snapshot: Use in conjunction with MACD to identify true divergences.
