Rolling Angled Volume Profile [Trendoscope®]🎲 Volume Profile Indicators
🎯Traditional Volume Profile
Volume profile indicators visually represent the distribution of volume across price levels. These indicators typically operate on horizontal price levels, making them effective in identifying supply and demand zones in ranging markets. However, they are less useful in trending markets where price movements follow a slope.
🎯The Need for Angled Volume Profiles
Just as support and resistance levels differ from trendlines, volume profile indicators require an equivalent method to account for volume distribution along a sloped trajectory. This would enable more accurate volume analysis in trending markets.
We identified the need of Angled Volume profile and have already published few indicators that implements the concept.
Angled Volume Profile calculates volume distribution along a slope. Users interact with the indicator by selecting the starting point, after which the volume profile is calculated for the selected trajectory.
Volume Forks is another tool that extends angled volume profile analysis, aligning volume profiles along the trajectory of pitchforks.
🎲 Rolling Volume Profile Indicator
The Rolling Volume Profile offers a new approach to angled volume profile calculations, addressing some limitations of earlier implementations:
🎯 Rolling Calculation
The volume profile is calculated for the last N bars of the instrument
The slope of the profile lines is determined by the closing prices of the starting and ending bars
Profiles are drawn in the direction of price movement between the start and end bars.
🎯 Dynamic Updates
As new bars are added, the calculations are updated, and the profile is redrawn based on the latest data.
This dynamic behavior earns it the name "Rolling Volume Profile."
🎯 Advantages Over Earlier Versions
Unlimited Profile Lines : Unlike previous implementations limited to 500 profile lines, this indicator uses polyline objects, overcoming the restriction.
Live Updates : Previous angled volume profile tools lacked real-time updates when new bars appeared. This limitation is resolved in the Rolling Volume Profile Indicator.
The Rolling Volume Profile provides an efficient and scalable solution for analyzing volume in trending markets.

ATR-Based Suitability CheckerPurpose:
This indicator helps traders identify the most suitable timeframe for trading by comparing fees to market volatility (ATR). Instead of filtering out specific assets or strategies, it focuses on finding optimal trading conditions for the selected timeframe. It is designed to adapt dynamically, ensuring that traders can align their approach with the current market environment.
Key Features:
Dynamic ATR Analysis: Measures volatility using the Average True Range (ATR) and evaluates how fees impact potential profitability across timeframes.
Fee-to-ATR Ratio: Calculates the proportion of fees to ATR, highlighting conditions where fees are too large relative to price movements.
Visual Feedback: **Red Background:** Indicates unsuitable trading conditions where fees dominate. **Green Background:** Highlights suitable conditions for trading efficiency. Markers provide quick visual identification of suitability.
Custom Transparency: Enables users to adjust the background’s transparency for better chart visibility.
How to Use:
Timeframe Optimization: When volatility rises, price movements become larger, making shorter timeframes more suitable for trading. Conversely, during periods of low volatility, longer timeframes are preferable to avoid overtrading within a narrow price range.
Spot & Leverage Trading: For spot trading, this tool identifies conditions where fees (e.g., 0.25%-0.3%) might excessively impact profitability. For instance, if ATR is comparable to fees, the trading environment may not be ideal. In leveraged trading, the indicator helps assess whether the current volatility supports your chosen leverage level, ensuring that leverage does not amplify undue risks.
Efficiency Focus: The indicator emphasizes finding a balance between market conditions and your trading strategy. Not all timeframes need to be "suitable" at all times; instead, it highlights the best opportunities based on current market dynamics. Utilize the suitability ratio across different timeframes to guide and adjust your trading strategies effectively.
Input Parameters:
ATR Length: Defines the period for ATR calculation (default: 14).
Fee Percentage (%): Trading fee as a percentage of the closing price (default: 0.1%).
Unsuitable Threshold (% of 1 ATR): Sets the maximum acceptable fee-to-ATR ratio for suitable conditions (default: 20%).
Background Transparency (0-100): Adjusts the opacity of the background highlight (default: 80).
Who Should Use This:
This tool is ideal for traders seeking to align their strategy with market conditions by finding the most suitable timeframe. It applies to both spot and leveraged markets, helping optimize efficiency while managing fees and volatility.
Notes:
The ATR-Based Suitability Checker is a supplementary tool. Combine it with other forms of analysis for comprehensive decision-making.
Regularly adjust the parameters to match your trading preferences and market conditions.

Analysis Explanation:
I’m forecasting that Bitcoin will retest its November 12th low (~$85,098.75) around January 20th, 2025, where the horizontal support line intersects with the downtrend line. This conclusion is based on the following:
Trend Analysis:
The chart shows a clear downtrend with price respecting the descending trendline.
The intersection of the horizontal support and the downtrend line on January 20th indicates a confluence point where price action may gravitate.
Volume and Activity Insights:
Using the Retail vs Institutional Activity indicator, the chart highlights periods dominated by institutional (red background) or retail (green background) activity.
Current price action is in a green zone, suggesting predominantly retail participation with lower volume and insignificant price movements.
Retail vs Institutional Dynamics:
Institutional activity (red zones) aligns with significant price movements and volume spikes, often marking key turning points or trends.
The recent green retail-dominated periods suggest a lack of strong momentum, which may lead to continued price decline until institutions re-enter around the confluence area.
Volume Observations:
Volume remains relatively low during the current retail phase, indicating weak buying pressure.
A potential surge in institutional activity (red zones) near the support level could trigger a rebound or breakdown.
I expect Bitcoin’s price to drop further and test the November 12th low near $85,098.75 on January 20th, 2025. This projection is supported by the convergence of the downtrend line and horizontal support, low retail-driven volume, and historical institutional activity patterns observed using the "Retail vs Institutional Activity" indicator.
Choppiness Index (levels)This Pine Script is a Choppiness Index Indicator with gradient visual enhancements. The Choppiness Index is a technical analysis tool that measures the "choppiness" or sideways movement of the market. It ranges from 0 to 100, where higher values indicate a more consolidated or sideways market, and lower values suggest a trending market.
Key Features:
Choppiness Index Calculation:
The script calculates the Choppiness Index based on the Average True Range (ATR) and the highest and lowest prices over a user-defined period (length).
Visual Bands:
Horizontal dashed lines are drawn at levels 55 (Upper Band), 50 (Middle Band), and 45 (Lower Band) to define key levels for interpreting the indicator.
Gradient Fills:
A blue fill is applied between the upper and lower bands (45–55) for visual clarity.
Dynamic gradients are applied to the areas:
Above the Upper Band (55–100): A green gradient fill where the color intensity increases with higher values.
Below the Lower Band (0–45): A red gradient fill where the color intensity increases with lower values.
Offset Option:
The offset input allows users to shift the Choppiness Index plot horizontally for visualization or alignment purposes.
Usage:
This indicator helps traders quickly assess market conditions:
Values above 55 indicate a choppy, non-trending market.
Values below 45 indicate a trending market.
The gradient fills make it easier to spot extreme conditions visually.
Customization:
Users can adjust:
length: The calculation period for the Choppiness Index.
offset: Horizontal shift of the Choppiness Index plot.
The gradient colors (green and red) and transparency levels are customizable in the script.
This enhanced visualization is ideal for traders who want a clear and intuitive representation of market choppiness, combined with visually striking gradient fills for quick analysis of market conditions.
[GrandAlgo] Liquidity HeatmapThe Liquidity Heatmap is a unique indicator designed to identify and highlight zones where price is likely to react based on liquidity dynamics. Unlike tools that analyze volume across all price levels, this indicator focuses specifically on liquidity concentrated around potential reversal zones. By evaluating price action and volume at these critical levels, it identifies areas of heightened interest for traders.
Key Features:
Dynamic Liquidity Zones:
Automatically calculates liquidity zones based on historical price activity, ensuring real-time relevance.
Volume-Based or Candle Interaction Analysis:
Choose between volume-based evaluation to focus on order flow or candle-based interaction for a broader perspective.
Customizable Percentile Threshold:
Filter zones based on their significance by setting a threshold to display only the top liquidity areas.
Lookback Period Control:
Define how many candles the indicator should analyze, allowing you to focus on short-term or long-term liquidity levels.
Color-Coded Visuals:
Liquidity zones are displayed using gradients, with green representing potential bullish zones (below price) and red representing potential bearish zones (above price). Stronger zones are indicated with darker colors.
How It Works:
The Liquidity Heatmap divides the price range into multiple levels, evaluating each level for interaction with historical price data. Liquidity zones are calculated based on:
Volume Concentration: When enabled, the indicator evaluates zones using historical volume, highlighting areas with significant order flow.
Candle Interactions: When volume-based analysis is disabled, the indicator calculates the number of candles interacting with each zone to determine its importance.
Zones that meet the user-defined percentile threshold are highlighted on the chart. Color gradients indicate the strength of each zone, allowing traders to prioritize the most significant areas. Real-time alerts notify users when the price touches these zones, providing actionable insights.
The image illustrates the volume-based analysis feature of the Liquidity Heatmap indicator. Liquidity zones are dynamically highlighted with intuitive color gradients—green for bullish volume and red for bearish volume—providing a clear visual representation of areas with concentrated liquidity at potential reversal points. This feature helps traders focus on zones with significant market activity, enhancing their decision-making process.

This indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to assist traders by providing insights into market conditions. It does not guarantee future price movements or trading outcomes and should not be relied upon as a sole decision-making tool. The effectiveness of this indicator depends on its application, which requires your trading knowledge, experience, and judgment.
Trading involves significant financial risk, including the potential loss of capital. Past performance of any tool or indicator does not guarantee future results. This script is intended for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial or investment advice. Users are strongly encouraged to perform their own analysis and consult with a qualified financial professional before making trading decisions.
Volume Equilibrium Overlay(2 of 2)This is an overlay for a prior script I've created: Volume Equilibrium.
To sum it up in a brief manner, this script plots when there is "volume-equilibrium" aka prices that the market may see as "fair-value" relative to the specified timeframe. This script provides what my last code lacked and that is a visual representation of critical prices.
The arrows beside the indications indicate the direction that the buying/selling volume was heading towards.
UP ARROW - indicates that equilibrium was had via increasing buy volume
DOWN ARROW - indicates that equilibrium was had via decreasing buy volume
Remember, this doesn't inherently mean that a stock is supposed to go up or down. Its just a representation of 'fair-value' points using volume. Also remember... both indicators provide what the other lacks. It isn't necessary to use both but for a broad overview of volume it definitely helps to at least be aware of how this information can be represented. Perhaps... consider switching between the two to see what you may be missing.
I believe finding 'fair-value' points via volume and price action provides a more objective way to measure what prices one should look at rather then arbitrary lines plotted on a chart. For more information feel welcome to look at the script that this code is based off of.

Custom Volume Ratio Indicator
The Custom Volume Ratio Indicator is a unique tool designed for traders to analyze price movements in relation to trading volume. This indicator calculates the ratio of the price range (the difference between the highest and lowest prices of a candle) to the volume of that candle. By visualizing this ratio, traders can gain insights into market dynamics and potential price movements.
Key Features:
1. Price Range Calculation: The indicator computes the price range for each candle by subtracting the lowest price from the highest price. This gives traders an understanding of how much price fluctuated during that specific time frame.
2. Volume Measurement: It utilizes the trading volume of each candle, which reflects the number of shares or contracts traded during that period. Volume is a critical factor in confirming trends and reversals in the market.
3. Ratio Visualization: The primary output of the indicator is the ratio of price range to volume. A higher ratio may indicate increased volatility relative to volume, suggesting potential trading opportunities. Conversely, a lower ratio could imply a more stable market environment.
4. Color-Coded Bars: The bars representing the ratio are color-coded based on the candle's closing price relative to its opening price. Green bars indicate bullish candles (where the close is higher than the open), while red bars indicate bearish candles (where the close is lower than the open). This visual cue helps traders quickly assess market sentiment.
5. Background Highlighting: The indicator also features a subtle background color to enhance visibility, making it easier for traders to focus on key areas of interest on the chart.
Use Cases:
• Trend Confirmation: Traders can use the volume ratio to confirm existing trends. A rising ratio alongside increasing volume may suggest a strong bullish trend, while a declining ratio could indicate weakening momentum.
• Volatility Assessment: By analyzing the price range relative to volume, traders can identify periods of high volatility. This information can be crucial for setting stop-loss orders or determining entry points.
• Market Sentiment Analysis: The color-coded bars provide immediate insight into market sentiment, allowing traders to make informed decisions based on recent price action.
Overall, the Custom Volume Ratio Indicator serves as a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, providing essential insights into market behavior and helping to inform trading strategies.
Williams POIV By King OsamaWilliams POIV Indicator
By King Osama
The Williams POIV (Price and Open Interest From COT Data) is a technical indicator designed to combine price movement with open interest data to provide valuable insights into market strength and sentiment. By integrating price changes and open interest (a measure of market participation), the indicator aims to detect shifts in market dynamics and highlight potential turning points.
The Williams POIV works by calculating the relationship between price changes and the true range, combined with open interest data, to generate a composite value that reflects the accumulation or distribution of market positions. This gives traders a deeper understanding of market trends and potential reversals.
Key Features:
Price and Open Interest Integration: Merges price movements with open interest data to assess market strength.
Market Sentiment Insights: Helps identify periods of accumulation or distribution, offering a clearer picture of market conditions.
Trend Analysis: Can be used to spot divergences and potential trend reversals.
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to analyze the interplay between price movements and open interest, offering enhanced insight into market trends and price action.
X.Y Format Candle Volume & CompressionThe Volume & Compression Indicator is designed to help traders identify significant market moves by displaying two key metrics above each candle. The top number represents the Volume Ratio, which compares the current candle's volume to the average volume of recent candles. For example, a reading of 2.5 means the current volume is 2.5 times higher than average. When volume exceeds 9.9 times the average, the indicator displays an up or down arrow instead of a number, indicating extremely high volume in that direction.
The bottom number shows the Compression Ratio, which measures the relationship between volume and price movement. This helps identify when large amounts of volume are moving price significantly (low compression) versus when high volume isn't resulting in much price movement (high compression). High compression often indicates accumulation or distribution phases, while low compression with high volume typically suggests strong directional moves.
The indicator includes visual cues to help spot patterns. Dots appear above candles when both high volume and high compression persist over several candles, potentially indicating accumulation phases. Arrows mark possible pivot points after these accumulation periods. Additionally, the candles themselves can display a gradient color that intensifies with increased compression, making it easier to spot areas of interest.
For trading purposes, watch for volume spikes (top number above 2.0) as they can signal potential reversal points or confirm breakouts. High compression readings might precede breakouts, while low compression with high volume often confirms strong trend moves. The most significant signals often come when both metrics show high readings over multiple candles, suggesting sustained institutional interest.
Big Whale Finder (BWF)The Big Whale Finder (BWF) indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to detect large, hidden orders in financial markets. These orders, often placed by institutional traders or "whales," are significant in size but executed in a way that minimizes their impact on the market price.
This tool uses volume-based analysis to identify these orders, focusing on the detection of unusual volume spikes occurring in price regions where the market remains stagnant or shows minimal movement. The indicator aims to help traders identify potential areas of institutional activity, providing a strategic advantage by recognizing patterns of hidden liquidity.
Core Logic and Methodology
The BWF indicator combines two key factors to identify potential "whale" activity:
Volume Analysis: The first condition evaluates the volume relative to its average over a defined period. This is done by calculating the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume and comparing current volume levels against this average. When the volume is significantly higher than the historical average, it signals the presence of a potentially large order.
Volume Threshold=Current Volume>(Average Volume×Threshold Factor)
Volume Threshold=Current Volume>(Average Volume×Threshold Factor)
According to market theory, large trades or "whale" activities often require substantial volumes to be executed. Identifying these anomalies can offer insights into the behavior of institutional players who seek to execute large transactions without disturbing the market (Lo, 2004).
Price Movement Analysis: The second condition considers the price change in relation to the volume. Specifically, if high volumes are detected but the price remains relatively stable, this suggests that large orders are being executed without significantly impacting the market price.
This phenomenon often occurs in "liquidity pools" or through algorithms designed to mask the true size of the orders. The indicator uses a price change threshold to identify this stagnation, with the condition that price movement remains below a certain percentage threshold.
Price Stagnation=(∣Close−Open∣Open)<Price Change Threshold
Price Stagnation=(Open∣Close−Open∣)<Price Change Threshold
This principle is aligned with research on market microstructure, which suggests that large institutional orders often attempt to hide their true size to avoid influencing the market (Hasbrouck, 1991).
Practical Use and Benefits
The Big Whale Finder (BWF) indicator is useful for identifying zones where large, potentially hidden orders are being executed. Traders often seek to detect these areas to better understand market dynamics and anticipate price movements. The benefits of using such an indicator include:
Increased Market Awareness: By identifying areas of high volume with minimal price movement, traders can spot potential "whale" activity that may indicate significant institutional involvement. These hidden large orders are not immediately visible in the market price, but their impact can become evident over time (Kyle, 1985).
Strategic Entry and Exit Points: Identifying areas with hidden liquidity can help traders make more informed decisions about where to enter or exit positions. A large institutional order may signal strong interest in a specific price level, and understanding this can guide strategic decisions regarding support and resistance levels.
Mitigating Price Impact: Knowing where these large orders are placed can also assist traders in avoiding price levels where they are more likely to face slippage. For instance, avoiding areas where whales are accumulating or distributing assets may help reduce the risk of unfavorable price movements.
Scientific Foundations and References
The underlying logic of this indicator draws heavily on established theories in market microstructure and behavioral finance, particularly the concept of hidden liquidity and information asymmetry. Market participants, especially institutional traders, frequently employ strategies to hide the true size of their orders to avoid influencing the market (Hasbrouck, 1991). These strategies include the use of dark pools, where large trades are executed privately and away from public view, and algorithmic trading systems that spread large orders across multiple price levels to minimize market impact (Lobel, 2012).
Research has shown that understanding these hidden liquidity dynamics can give traders a significant edge. For example, Hasbrouck (1991) emphasized that large, hidden orders may signal upcoming price trends, as they often precede significant market moves. Similarly, Lo (2004) highlighted that institutional traders' strategies to hide orders are a critical factor in market behavior, suggesting that the ability to detect these activities could enhance trading strategies.
Conclusion
The Big Wale Finder (BWF) indicator provides a powerful tool for identifying areas where large orders are being executed without significantly impacting the price. By analyzing volume and price stagnation, it helps traders uncover hidden liquidity, which is critical for anticipating potential price movements. This indicator's effectiveness lies in its ability to detect "whale" activity, offering traders insights into the actions of institutional market participants. Understanding and leveraging these insights can provide a strategic advantage in the highly competitive and information-rich landscape of financial markets.

Time-Based VWAP (TVWAP)(TVWAP) Indicator
The Time-Based Volume Weighted Average Price (TVWAP) indicator is a customized version of VWAP designed for intraday trading sessions with defined start and end times. Unlike the traditional VWAP, which calculates the volume-weighted average price over an entire trading day, this indicator allows you to focus on specific time periods, such as ICT kill zones (e.g., London Open, New York Open, Power Hour). It helps crypto scalpers and advanced traders identify price deviations relative to volume during key trading windows.
Key Features:
Custom Time Interval:
You can set the exact start and end times for the VWAP calculation using input settings for hours and minutes (24-hour format).
Ideal for analyzing short, high-liquidity periods.
Dynamic Accumulation of Price and Volume:
The indicator resets at the beginning of the specified session and accumulates price-volume data until the end of the session.
Ensures that the TVWAP reflects the weighted average price specific to the chosen session.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots the TVWAP line only during the specified time window, providing a clear visual reference for price action during that period.
Outside the session, the TVWAP line is hidden (na).
Use Cases:
ICT Scalp Trading:
Monitor price rebalances or potential liquidity sweeps near TVWAP during important trading sessions.
Mean Reversion Strategies:
Detect pullbacks toward the session’s average price for potential entry points.
Breakout Confirmation:
Confirm price direction relative to TVWAP during kill zones or high-volume times to determine if a breakout is supported by volume.
Inputs:
Start Hour/Minute: The time when the TVWAP calculation starts.
End Hour/Minute: The time when the TVWAP calculation ends.
Technical Explanation:
The indicator uses the timestamp function to create time markers for the session start and end.
During the session, the price-volume (close * volume) is accumulated along with the total volume.
TVWAP is calculated as:
TVWAP = (Sum of (Price × Volume)) ÷ (Sum of Volume)
Once the session ends, the TVWAP resets for the next trading period.
Customization Ideas:
Alerts: Add notifications when the price touches or deviates significantly from TVWAP.
Different Colors: Use different line colors based on upward or downward trends.
Multiple Sessions: Add support for multiple TVWAP lines for different time periods (e.g., London + New York).

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.
Enhanced VFI Buyer/Seller PressureThe "Enhanced VFI Buyer/Seller Pressure" indicator serves multiple roles in technical analysis and trading decision-making. Here's an overview of its purpose and functionality:
1. Understanding Market Dynamics
* Buyer Pressure: Indicates how strongly buyers are influencing the price movement during a specific period.
* Seller Pressure: Reflects the intensity of selling activity and its impact on price movement.
Helps assess the balance of power between buyers and sellers.
2. Identifying Key Trading Signals
* Strong Buy Signal: Triggered when buyer pressure exceeds the threshold, suggesting strong upward momentum and a potential opportunity to buy.
* Strong Sell Signal: Triggered when seller pressure exceeds the threshold, indicating strong downward momentum and a potential opportunity to sell.
* Neutral Zone: Represents periods of indecision, where neither buyers nor sellers dominate, often leading to consolidation or reduced volatility.
3. Visualizing Volume Flow Index (VFI)
VFI: Measures the money flow in and out of the market, factoring in both price and volume dynamics.
Helps identify bullish or bearish trends through crossovers:
* VFI Crossover EMA: Signals a bullish shift.
* VFI Crossunder EMA: Signals a bearish shift.
4. Supporting Decision-Making
Histogram Visualization: Provides an easy-to-read representation of buyer and seller pressure over time.
Faded bars indicate weak pressure, discouraging action during periods of low market activity.
Background Color Dynamics: Offers immediate visual cues for prevailing market conditions:
* Green for strong buy signals.
* Red for strong sell signals.
* Gray for neutral conditions.
Zero Line: Acts as a baseline to differentiate positive and negative pressure, simplifying interpretation.
5. Alerts for Automation
Configurable alerts ensure traders are notified when:
Buyer or seller pressure exceeds predefined thresholds.
VFI crosses above or below the EMA, indicating potential trend changes.
Use Cases in Trading:
Momentum Trading: Identify when momentum strongly favors buyers or sellers.
Trend Confirmation: Use VFI crossover signals to confirm the direction of a trend.
Risk Management: Avoid trading in neutral or low-pressure zones where market direction is uncertain.
Volume-Driven Analysis: Leverage VFI to gauge the impact of volume on price trends, especially in high-volatility markets.
This indicator combines price action, volume analysis, and trend identification to provide a comprehensive tool for traders seeking an edge in market analysis.
Candles Volume HeatMap [BigBeluga]Candles Volume HeatMap
The Candle Volume HeatMap indicator is a unique and advanced tool that visualizes lower timeframe volume activity within higher timeframe candles, offering traders a granular perspective on volume distribution.
⚠️Important note: before using the indicator, it is necessary to apply it to the candles
🔵Key Features:
Volume HeatMap Visualization: The indicator breaks down each higher timeframe candle into 10 equal vertical segments (boxes) based on its high-to-low range. Each box represents a lower timeframe candle's volume activity, with more intense colors indicating stronger volume levels.
Lower Timeframe Integration: Automatically uses a timeframe 10x lower than the current chart. For example, on a 10-hour chart, it uses 1-hour candles to extract volume data.
POC (Point of Control): The highest volume box within each candle is marked with the volume value. The indicator also plots a horizontal POC line at the level of this box, highlighting significant areas of price interest. The POC line is removed once the price crosses it, ensuring the chart stays clean.
Delta Display (Optional): Traders can enable the Delta feature to analyze buyer vs. seller activity within each higher timeframe candle.
Delta is calculated by summing 10 lower timeframe candles: a bullish candle adds to buyers, while a bearish candle adds to sellers. Displays the net Delta percentage: positive values (white) indicate buyer dominance, while negative values (red) indicate seller dominance.
Dynamic Volume Scaling: The highest volume value in each candle is displayed inside its respective box, providing quick insights into critical price-volume levels.
🔵How It Works:
For each higher timeframe candle, the indicator analyzes 10 lower timeframe candles and maps their volume into 10 segments (boxes) between the high and low of the current candle.
The intensity of each box's color corresponds to the relative volume of the lower timeframe candle it represents.
The POC highlights the price level with the highest concentration of volume, aiding in identifying potential support/resistance zones.
Delta analysis offers additional insights into market sentiment by breaking down buyer and seller activity in each candle.
🔵Use Cases:
Spotting key volume areas within higher timeframe candles to identify support and resistance levels.
Analyzing volume concentration for potential breakout or reversal zones.
Leveraging Delta analysis to gauge market sentiment and confirm volume-based trends.
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking to combine volume analysis with price action, offering precise insights into volume distribution and market dynamics.
Volume EquilibriumThe intent behind this indicator is to provide comprehensive information relating to volume compared to multiple timeframes. This indicator allows one to see what the market 'theoretically' sees as 'fair-value' whilst also allowing one to gauge where the price of a stock is headed.
Volume Equilibrium
The main indicator finds the difference between buying volume and selling volume, under the basic presumption that more buying volume indicates greater bullish sentiment and vice versa.
Buying Volume = volume when close price is higher than open price.
Selling Volume = volume when close price is lower than open price.
Volume Balance = Cumulative Buying Volume − Cumulative Selling Volume
Volume Balance is then expressed as a percentage by dividing by total volume
This indicator is composed of three different lengths of the same indicator. Short, Mid, and Long term representations of Volume Equilibrium. The difference between the mid and long term are highlighted so to make it easy to see where volume is going relative to a longer time frame.
HOW TO USE:
At 0 ---> Equilibrium ---> Equal Buying/Selling Volume
Above 0 ---> More buying Volume
Below 0 ---> More selling Volume
Using theory, it is assumed that the price is at a 'fair-value' when the buying/selling volume is at 0. This is of course relative to the respective timeframe of your choosing. More weight given to larger timeframes.
Volume Histogram
It is a basic volume chart that represents the total volume though has highlighted bars so to indicate buying(green) and selling(red) volume. This allows one to see what the indicator is based off of.
Open-Close Oscillator(not needed)
Calculates the average open-close for a selected timeframe and then provides the current closing price relative to that average open-close. Very simply put, values below 0 indicate bearish and values above 0 generally indicate bullishness. This indicator is for a quick reference of price action relative to volume.
Another way to use this indicator, though unique, is to analyze the separate open-close lines themselves. Using the open-close bands, bullishness is defined as increasing closing prices and bearish as decreasing closing prices. So, in regard to this indicator, bear sessions can be indicated by the opening line being below the closing line and bull sessions as the opening line being above. Use the 'flip' of these lines to your advantage, they are very helpful at capturing long continuous sentiment.
This indicator is composed of great information though I still think it best to use many different indicators to help you with your trades.
NOTE: Be aware of what we are trying to analyze, Volume. This means that one should also look out for divergences to capture early indications of reversals. This indicator can be leveraged greatly.
Volume Spike IndicatorThe Volume Spike Indicator is designed to identify significant volume spikes in the market. This tool helps traders recognize unusual trading activity, which may indicate potential reversals, breakouts, or increased volatility. The indicator uses a simple moving average (SMA) of volume over a specified period and highlights bars where the current volume exceeds a multiple of this average.
Features:
Volume SMA Calculation:
The indicator calculates the SMA of volume over a customizable period (default: 20 bars).
Spike Multiplier:
A threshold multiplier (default: 4) determines what qualifies as a "spike."
Spikes occur when the current volume is greater than the SMA multiplied by this threshold.
Visual Alerts:
If a spike is detected, a red cross ( Cross ) and X-shape ( X-Cross ) are plotted above the corresponding bar for easy identification.
How to Use:
Spot High-Activity Areas:
Use this indicator to find points of unusually high trading activity, which can signify key levels or moments of interest in the market.
Adjust Settings for Sensitivity:
Length : Change the SMA period to match your trading timeframe.
Spike Multiplier : Lower values detect smaller spikes; higher values focus on extreme events.
Combine with Other Indicators:
This tool works best when combined with price action analysis, support/resistance levels, or trend indicators to confirm trading signals.
Customization Options:
Length: Number of bars for SMA calculation (default: 20).
Spike Multiplier: Threshold for defining volume spikes (default: 4).
This indicator is suitable for traders looking to enhance their analysis by identifying abnormal market activity.
Volume ComparisonThis indicator is designed to visually compare the current day's trading volume against the average trading volumes of 3, 5, and 10 days. It highlights certain conditions based on the comparison and provides alerts.
Inputs for Customization:
1. The user can toggle visibility for the 3-day, 5-day, and 10-day average volumes using boolean inputs.
2. Average Volume Calculation:

3.Conditions:
The indicator checks whether the current day's volume is greater than the respective moving averages for 3, 5, and 10 days.
4. Background Color for Visual Indicators:
If the current day's volume is greater than any of the averages and the corresponding option is enabled, the background color is adjusted:
* Green if the volume is greater than the 3-day average.
* Blue if the volume is greater than the 5-day average.
* Red if the volume is greater than the 10-day average.
5. Plotting the Averages:
The moving averages are plotted on the chart, with different colors for each (green for 3-day, blue for 5-day, and red for 10-day).
6. This indicator can be used to help visually track whether today's volume is above the moving average, which can signal increased market activity or interest.

Dominant Smoothed Volume Pro Smoothed Volume Pro provides a useful tool designed to provide traders with a deeper understanding of market dynamics by analyzing buy and sell volume across multiple timeframes. Unlike traditional volume indicators, this script normalizes volume data from lower timeframes to align with the current chart's timeframe, providing an apples-to-apples comparison. The result is a visual histogram representation of the dominant buy or sell activity, smoothed over 5 different periods to reflect momentum shifts and enhance clarity.
Core Methodology
1. Multi-Timeframe Volume Analysis
This indicator leverages data from five different lower timeframes, each chosen dynamically based on the current chart's timeframe. By aggregating and normalizing these granular data points, the indicator captures subtle shifts in buy and sell volume that might otherwise go unnoticed. This multi-timeframe approach allows for a more detailed and accurate representation of market activity.
2. Data Normalization
Normalization is a critical component of this indicator. It ensures that volume data from lower timeframes is scaled appropriately to match the total volume of the current chart's timeframe. This step eliminates discrepancies caused by varying time intervals, providing a more meaningful comparison of volume trends across different periods.
3. Smoothing for Momentum Representation
The indicator employs five customizable smoothing factors to smooth out noisy volume data.
Each smoothing factor is distinctly color-coded in the histogram and table for intuitive analysis, helping traders quickly identify prevailing trends.
Features and Benefits
➖Customizable Smoothing Factors: Choose from five different smoothing factors, each with its unique settings for line styles, colors, and extensions.
➖Normalized Buy and Sell Volume: Displays normalized buy and sell volumes as a percentage of total activity, aiding in quick decision-making.
➖Visual Cues: Color-coded columns and labels help identify dominant trends at a glance, with high-opacity fills for visual clarity.
➖Dynamic Table: A built-in table summarizes smoothed volume data for each smoothing factor, offering a quick overview of bullish and bearish percentages.
➖Momentum Signals: Detect significant shifts in volume momentum with visually distinct alerts for high relative volumes, including special symbols like "⚡" and "🔥."
Practical Applications
➖Identifying Market Sentiment: Quickly determine whether the market is dominated by buyers or sellers at any given moment.
➖Spotting Reversals: Use momentum shifts in smoothed volume to anticipate potential trend reversals.
➖Enhancing Entry and Exit Points: Combine this indicator with other technical tools to refine entry and exit points in your trading strategy.
Why This Indicator Stands Out
Many existing volume indicators focus solely on raw or single-timeframe data, which can be misleading or incomplete. This indicator sets itself apart by:
Utilizing multi-timeframe data to provide a holistic view of market activity.
Applying robust normalization techniques to ensure data consistency.
Offering advanced smoothing options to emphasize actionable momentum signals.
This unique combination of features makes it an indispensable tool for traders seeking to enhance their market analysis and decision-making process.
As always, by combining the Smoothed Volume Pro with other tools, traders ensure that they are not relying on a single indicator. This layered approach can reduce the likelihood of false signals and improve overall trading accuracy.
