Time Profile [QuantVue]The Time Profile indicator provides traders with a comprehensive view of volume and time-based price activity. The indicator combines two essential components into one indicator: the volume profile and the time profile.
The volume profile represents the distribution of trading volume at different price levels over a specified period and is displayed as a circle on the chart.
It provides a visual representation of where the majority of trading volume occurred and often highlights significant support and resistance levels. The volume profile is calculated as the closing price of the highest volume intraday bar, based on the user selected lower time frame.
On the other hand, the time profile focuses on analyzing the time spent at certain price levels. The indicator divides the current bars range into 10 blocks and counts the number of user selected lower time frame closes within each time block.
The block with the most lower time frame closes in it is deemed the time point of control. Traders can use this information to identify time blocks where price movement was most significant.
The time profile is drawn on the Y axis of the current bar to allow for an easy visualization of where price spent most of its time. Historical time profiles are also noted on previous bars with a dash marking the level.
The Time Profile indicator offers several customization options. Traders can adjust the timeframe for the lower time frame data, decide whether to display the time profile, and customize colors for visual clarity.
Additionally, traders can choose to highlight instances where the Volume POC and Time POC align, indicating a strong concentration of volume and price activity.
Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.
We hope you enjoy!
Cheers.
Volum
Volume accumulation on past range [TCS] | VTAThe indicator calculates buy and sell volume values for different look-back periods based on the high, low, close, and tick volume data of the chart.
The range can be selected by adding the end date and the look-back period, which starts from the end date. It can calculate a maximum of 100 candlesticks.
The calculated buy and sell volume values are stored in separate variables, representing cumulative volume values over their respective look-back periods. It's important to note that the provided code calculates the buy and sell volume values individually for each look-back period and then sums them.
This information can be useful in understanding who is in control of the market during the selected range. The 'heatmap' is particularly helpful in identifying areas of high or low trading activity, which can help define support and resistance levels.
For example, if there is a greater accumulation of bullish volume than bearish volume and a break occurs in a resistance area, it may present a good entry opportunity.
Please note that this indicator is for educational purposes only and should not be used for trading without further testing and analysis.
Pip Counter with AlertsThis script can be used to count number of pips on a candle , use settings to change precision(decimals) , look back candles and alerts for number of pips change and percentage change on a candle. This works for only forex. Mention any suggestions or improvements in the comments. Hope it is useful for you all .
Volume+The enhanced Volume+ Indicator is a valuable tool that builds upon the traditional Volume indicator by incorporating a technique known as linear prediction.
In traditional Volume analysis, the volume data for a bar is only known once the bar has closed. However, with the enhanced Volume+ Indicator, we utilize linear prediction to estimate the closing volume of the k-bar before it actually closes. This estimation is based on historical volume observed in the market.
By employing this indicator, traders and investors can gain an early insight into the potential volume of the current bar, even before it concludes. This can be particularly useful for those who wish to make informed decisions based on volume analysis and its impact on price movements.

Volume Change Indicator 0.1 [PATREND]
(Volume Change Indicator)
It is an analytical tool that studies the trading volume and its changes.
This indicator uses the Simple Moving Average (SMA) to calculate the average volume for a specific period of time.
Only candles that meet the required conditions are determined when the trading volume is greater than or equal to the calculated average.
This means that the indicator identifies a volume candle only when there is a significant change in trading volume compared to the average.
This indicator is distinguished from other similar indicators in that it allows the user to determine the required percentage of change as an additional condition for determining the volume candle.
If the conditions are correct, the indicator will display a diamond below the candle that meets the requirements specified by the user.
The indicator also displays lines above and below the candle and places "A" and "B" marks next to them to determine the start and end points.

Fixed Range Anchored VWAPFixed Range Anchored VWAP
Description:
This indicator expands upon the popular Anchored VWAP concept by introducing user-defined start and end dates, allowing traders to select and analyze specific zones of interest. The VWAP is a widely recognized benchmark utilized by traders to assess the average price paid for a security, factoring in both volume and price. By incorporating volume data, the VWAP offers a comprehensive view of market sentiment and provides significant insights into intraday price action.
The Fixed Range Anchored VWAP takes the VWAP concept a step further by enabling traders to define a custom start and end date. This feature allows them to zoom in on specific periods of interest, such as earnings announcements, major news events, or significant price swings. By narrowing the focus to a specific time range, traders can gain a more detailed understanding of how the VWAP interacts with price movements within that specific zone.
How to Use:
1. Set the Start and End Dates: Define the desired start and end dates for the analysis period.
2. Analyze Price Movements: Observe how the VWAP interacts with price action within the defined range.
Price & Volume Profile (Expo)█ Overview
The Price & Volume Profile provides a holistic perspective on market dynamics by simultaneously tracking price action and trading volume across a range of price levels. So it is not only a volume-based indicator but also a price-based one. In addition to illustrating volume distribution, it quantifies how frequently the price has fallen within a particular range, thus offering a holistic perspective on market dynamics.
This unique and comprehensive approach to market analysis by considering both price action and trading volume, two crucial dimensions of market activity. Its distinctive methodology offers several advantages:
Holistic Market View: By simultaneously tracking the frequency of specific price ranges (Price Profile) and the volume traded at those ranges (Volume Profile), this indicator provides a more complete picture of market behavior. It shows not only where the market is trading but also how much it's trading, reflecting both price acceptance levels and market participation intensity.
Point of Control (POC): The POC, as highlighted by this indicator, serves as a significant reference point for traders. It identifies the price level with the highest trading activity, thus indicating a strong consensus among market participants about the asset's fair value. Observing how price interacts with the POC can offer valuable insights into market sentiment and potential trend reversals.
Support and Resistance Levels: Price levels with high trading activity often act as support or resistance in future price movements. The indicator visually represents these levels, enabling traders to anticipate potential price reactions.
Price Profile
Price and Volume Profile
█ Calculations
The algorithm analyzes both trade frequency and volume across different price levels. It identifies these levels within the visible chart range, then examines each bar to determine if the selected price falls within these levels. If so, it increases a counter and adds the trading volume. This process repeats across the visible range and is visualized as a horizontal histogram, each bar representing a price level and the bar length reflecting trade frequency and volume. Additionally, it calculates the Point of Control (POC), signifying the price level with the highest activity.
In summary: The histogram presents a dual perspective - not only the traded volume at each price level but also the frequency of the price hitting each range. The longer the bar, the more times the price has frequented that specific range, revealing key insights into price behavior and acceptance levels. These frequently visited areas often emerge as strong support or resistance zones, helping traders navigate market movements.
Please note that the indicator adjusts to the visible price range, making it adaptable to changing market conditions. This dynamic analysis can provide more relevant and timely information than static indicators.
█ How to use
This indicator is beneficial for traders as it offers insights into the distribution of trading activity across different price levels. It helps identify key areas of support and resistance and gives a visual representation of market sentiment and liquidity.
The point of control (POC) , which is the price level with the highest traded volume or frequency count, becomes even more crucial in this context. It marks the price at which the most trading activity occurred, signaling a strong consensus among market participants about the asset's fair value. If the market price deviates significantly from the POC, it could suggest an overbought or oversold condition, potentially leading to a price reversion.
Fair Price Areas/gaps are specific price levels or zones where an asset has spent limited time in the past. These areas are considered interesting or significant because they may have an impact on future price action.
Similar to the concept of fair value gaps, which refers to discrepancies between an asset's market price and its estimated intrinsic value, Fair Price Areas/gaps focus on price levels that have been relatively underutilized in terms of trading activity. When an asset's price reaches a Fair Price Area/gap, traders and investors pay attention because they expect the price to react in some way. The rationale behind this concept is that price tends to gravitate towards areas where it has spent less time in the past, as the market perceives them as significant levels.
█ Settings
The indicator is customizable, allowing users to define the number of price levels (rows), the offset, the data source, and whether to display volume or frequency count. It also adjusts dynamically to the visible price range on the chart, ensuring that the analysis remains relevant and timely with changing market conditions.
Source: The price to use for the calculation. Typically, this is the closing price. By considering the user-selected Source (typically the closing price), the indicator determines the frequency with which the price lands within each designated price level (row) over the selected period. In essence, the indicator provides a count of bars where the Source price falls within each range, essentially creating a "Price Profile."
Row Size: The number of price levels (rows) to divide the visible price range into.
Display: Choose whether to display the number of bars ("Counter") or the total volume ("Volume") for each price level.
Offset: The distance of the histogram from the price chart.
Point of Control (POC): If enabled, the indicator will highlight the price level with the most activity.

Discrete Fourier Transformed Money Flow IndexThe Discrete Fourier Transform Money Flow Index indicator integrates the Money Flow Index (MFI) with Discrete Fourier Transform (credit to author wbburgin - May 26 2023 ) smoothing to offer a refined and smoothed depiction of the MFI's underlying trend. The MFI is calculated using the formula: MFI = 100 - (100 / (1 + MR)), where a high MFI value indicates robust buying pressure (signaling an overbought condition), and a low MFI value indicates substantial selling pressure (signaling an oversold condition).
Why is the DFT and MFI combined?
The aim of this combination between DFT and MFI is to effectively filter out short-term fluctuations and noise, enabling a clearer assessment of the overall trend. This smoothing process enhances the reliability of the MFI by emphasizing dominant and sustained buying or selling pressures. This script executes a full DFT but only uses filtering from one frequency component. The choice to focus on the magnitude at index 0 is significant as it captures the dominant or fundamental frequency in the data. By analyzing this primary cyclic behavior, we can identify recurring patterns and potential turning points more easily. This streamlined approach simplifies interpretation and enhances efficiency by reducing complexity associated with multiple frequency components. Overall, focusing on the dominant frequency and applying it to the MFI provides a concise and actionable assessment of the underlying data.
Note: The FMFI indicator provides both smoothed and non-smoothed versions of the MFI, with the option to toggle the original non-smoothed MFI on or off in the settings.
Application
FMFI functions as a trend-following indicator. Bullish trends are denoted by the color white, while bearish trends are represented by the color purple. Circles plotted on the FMFI indicate regular bull and bear signals. Additionally, red arrows indicate a strong negative trend, while green arrows indicate a strong positive trend. These arrows are calculated based on the presence of regular bull and bear signals within overbought and oversold zones. To enhance its effectiveness, it is recommended to combine this indicator with other complementary technical analysis tools and integrate it into a comprehensive trading strategy. Traders are encouraged to explore a wide range of settings and timeframes to align the indicator with their unique trading preferences and adapt it to the current market conditions. By doing so, traders can optimize the indicator's performance and increase their potential for successful trading outcomes.
Utility
Traders and investors can employ this indicator to enhance their trend-following strategies. The white-colored components of the FMFI can help identify potential buying zones, while the purple-colored components can assist in identifying potential selling points. The red and green arrows can be used to pinpoint moments of strong bull or bear momentum, allowing traders to position themselves advantageously in their trading activities. Please note that future performance of any trading strategy is fundamentally unknowable, and past results do not guarantee future performance.
Volume Forks [Trendoscope]🎲 Volume Forks - Advanced Price Analysis with Recursive Auto-Pitchfork and Angled Volume Profile
The Volume Forks Indicator is a comprehensive research tool that combines two innovative techniques, Recursive Auto-Pitchfork and Angled Volume Profile . This indicator provides traders with valuable insights into price dynamics by integrating accurate pitchfork drawing and volume analysis over angled levels. The indicator does following things
Detects Pitchfork formations automatically on the chart over Recursive Zigzag
Instead of drawing forks based on fib levels, volume distribution over ABC of pitchfork is calculated and drawn in the direction of the handle.
🎲 Brief about Pitchfork
Pitchfork is drawn when price forms ABC pattern. Pitchfork draws a series of parallel lines in the direction of trend which can be used for support and resistance.
There are many methods of drawing pitchfork. In all cases, a line joining BC will make the base of pitchfork and fork lines are drawn from different points of the base. All the fork lines will be parallel. But, the handle of the base defines the direction of fork lines. Classification of pitchfork is mainly based on the starting and ending points of the handle.
🎲 Regular Types
Here, end of the handle is always fixed and it will be the mid point of B and C.
🎯 Andrews Pitchfork
Handle starts from A and joins the base at mid of B and C.
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎯 Schiff Pitchfork
Handle starts from Bar of A and price of middle of AB and joins the base at mid of B and C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎯 Modified Schiff Pitchfork
Handle starts from mid of A and B and joins the base at mid of B and C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎲 Inside Types
Here, C will act as end of the handle which joins the Base BC .
🎯 Andrews Pitchfork (Inside)
Handle starts from A and joins the base at C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎯 Schiff Pitchfork (Inside)
Handle starts from Bar of A and price of (A+B)/2 and joins the base at C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎯 Modified Schiff Pitchfork (Inside)
Handle starts from mid of A and B and joins the base at C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎲 Brief about Pitchfork
The Angled Volume Profile technique expands on the concept of volume profile by measuring volume distribution levels over angled levels rather than just horizontal levels. By selecting a starting point and angle interactively, traders can assess volume distribution within specific price trends. This feature is particularly useful for analysing volume dynamics in trending markets.
🎲 Settings
Indicator settings include few things which determine the scanning of pitchforks and few which determines drawing of volume profile lines.
Please note that, due to pine limitations of 500 lines, if there are too many formations on the chart, volume profile may not appear correctly. If that happens, please reduce the number of volume forks per formation.
FFH Market structure v1The indicator determines the trend, its direction, confirmed trend, trend breakout levels (BoS), sideways ranges, volume profile point of control levels (vPoC) - all of this is conveniently displayed on the chart and helps complement your technical analysis.
The main idea of the script is to trade volume profile levels (vPoC) by identifying trends and sideways ranges. The script detect them and provides signals as soon as it detects a reaction from a volume level. You then complement these signals with your own technical analysis and make a decision to enter a trade. The script was developed solely to facilitate trading and address the issue of convenient visualization. Structure breakout levels are displayed as additional confirmations for making trading decisions. If we form a sideways range below/above such a trading level, it is a strong signal for me.
For sideways ranges, a volume level is calculated (vPoC), which also serves as input information for the signal engine. Signals are generated based on volume levels, with the calculation of stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels. The SL is set at a certain percentage of the range boundaries or the previous high/low, as specified by a parameter. Targets are calculated intelligently based on trend reversal levels and volume levels.
The indicator parameters are individually tailored to each coin. The number of bars to determine the high/low is adjusted, as well as the allowable price deviation for defining the range boundaries on the first level. There are three modes for determining the sideways range, and data sources for highs/lows can be chosen (high/low/candle close, etc.). To make it more convenient for you to work with the indicator, there is an algorithm for automatic parameter adjustment built-in.
Currently script _only_ works for:
* BTC on 1-hour, 4-hour, and 1-day timeframes.
* ETC on 1-hour, 4-hour, and 1-day timeframes.
* Any altcoin on a 1-day timeframe.
The script will be beneficial to both novice traders, helping them understand market structure, sideways ranges, and identifying structure breakouts, as well as experienced traders, facilitating the process of plotting market structure elements on the chart and making trading decisions.
In any case, this script is not an investment idea.
All trading decisions you make based on the script are made independently and at your own risk.
Center of gravity - Mid Point + Volume (PolySlyme)I created an indicator which suits my scalping needs.
First it calculates the mid point of every candle, then it calculates where the closing price is in the candle and converts that to a percentage from the mid point. Then it looks at volume and calculates the difference (Positive/negative) from the previous volume bar and converts that to a percentage. These 2 factors are summed together to give a percentage number (positive or negative) then highlights the positive value. Bullish volume and price action turn to gold.
I use this for scalping to great effect. Enjoy.
Custom Range Creator + Normalized Oscillators (Obv, Rsi, Mfi) Hello Traders!
Custom Range Creator is a specialized trading tool designed for traders who incorporate range analysis into their trading strategy.
Once you set the desired number of past candles or provide a manual input, the indicator will automatically draw a range for you. This unique feature allows you to customize the range based on the highest and lowest points within a specified number of bars, known as the "Dynamic Range." Furthermore, you have the flexibility to define up to three additional ranges manually using custom inputs. The lines and labels associated with these ranges can be fully customized in terms of style, color, and width to align with your personal preferences.
Dynamic Range Capabilities:
The indicator automatically generates a range by default, identifying the highest and lowest points within the last 200 bars. However, you have the ability to define the number of bars back by adjusting the setting in the menu. Moreover you can define the range based on either the wicks or the bodies of the candles.
The range includes the following components:
☀ Range High: The highest price point within the selected number of bars in the past
☀ Range Low: The lowest price point within the selected number of bars in the past
☀ Range Mid-Point: The calculated middle value between the Range High and Range Low
☀ First Quartile (Q1): The midpoint between the Range Low and the Range Mid-Point, effectively identifying the 25% level within the range
☀ Third Quartile (Q3): The midpoint between the Range Mid-Point and the Range High, identifying the 75% level within the range
By incorporating these critical levels within a price range, our Dynamic Range provides you with a comprehensive view of how the market evolves, enabling you to make more informed trading decisions.
Manual Ranges Capabilities:
In addition to the Dynamic Range, you can manually define up to three more ranges. By specifying your desired high and low price values as inputs, the system automatically draws the range based on your inputs. Once drawn, you can further adjust the range using the bar offset option, which allows you to shift the entire range backward or forward by a specified number of bars.
Each manually defined range includes the following components:
☀ Range High: Your user-defined highest price point
☀ Range Low: Your user-defined lowest price point
☀ Range Mid-Point: The calculated middle value between the Range High and Range Low
☀ First Quartile (Q1): The midpoint between the Range Low and the Range Mid-Point, identifying the 25% level within the range
☀ Third Quartile (Q3): The midpoint between the Range Mid-Point and the Range High, identifying the 75% level within the range
This allows you to precisely define your desired price range and visually represent it on the chart. The customizable manual ranges provide you with a powerful tool for analyzing price dynamics and identifying potential support and resistance levels.
Both Dynamic Range and Manual Ranges Capabilities:
a) Timeframe-Adaptive: This indicator dynamically adjusts to your selected timeframe. Whether you are a day trader or a long-term investor, this tool adapts to meet your needs.
b) Complete Customization: You have the flexibility to customize every aspect of "Custom Range Indicator". You can modify the color, style, and width of each of the five lines to seamlessly integrate them into your chart setup. Choose from various line styles, including solid, dashed, or dotted, and select colors that suit your visual preferences. Additionally, you can customize the color and text of the labels. Additionally, you can utilize the bar offset option to fine-tune the placement of the range within your analysis.
c) Hide Lines and Labels: You have the option to hide each line or label of the range individually, or hide the entire range with labels or without labels. This customization feature allows you to focus on specific aspects of the chart and declutter the visual representation of the ranges when needed.
Normalized Oscillators
Normalization is a process applied in data handling and statistics, and in the context of trading indicators, it can be incredibly useful. Trading indicators such as Volume, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), the Money Flow Index (MFI), and On Balance Volume (OBV), often vary in their range and scale.
Normalization adjusts these values to fit within a specific range, making different indicators directly comparable and aiding in the interpretation of their relationship and impact on price action. This can offer additional insights for traders, making it easier to identify trends, patterns, and potential trading signals across different indicators.
This indicator offers a selection of three oscillators to normalize and Volume Data:
☀Volume: The amount of a particular asset that is traded within a particular period.
☀Relative Strength Index (RSI): A momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It is typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in a market.
☀Money Flow Index (MFI): A momentum indicator that uses price and volume data to identify overbought or oversold signals in an asset.
☀On Balance Volume (OBV): A technical trading momentum indicator that uses volume flow to predict changes in price. It does this by cumulatively adding volume on days when the price increases, and subtracting volume on days when the price decreases.
This script also offers aesthetic customizations for the plot, which can enhance readability and visual appeal:
✔"Plot Color": This input lets users select the color of the plotted line on the chart, allowing for personalization and better visual differentiation when multiple indicators are used.
✔"Plot Width": Users can also adjust the thickness of the plotted line, enhancing visibility based on individual preference or screen resolution.
Why is useful the Normalization?
Normalization plays a crucial role in trading as it helps bring together diverse sets of information to support more informed decision-making. For instance, observing the correlation between the price chart and oscillators like On Balance Volume (OBV) near range levels can provide valuable insights.
Consider this example using a daily (1D) Ethereum (ETH) chart:
We observe that the price is at a Range Quarter, making a higher high while the OBV makes a higher low. This scenario presents a significant degree of confluence. The price is at a critical range level and there is a bearish divergence between the OBV and the price. Such confluence often indicates a potential shift in market dynamics, and as observed, the price trends lower subsequently.
Below is the same scenario represented on a linear chart, providing a clearer visualization:
Normalization enables us to make these comparisons more accurately, ultimately leading to more reliable trading signals and better trading outcomes. By adjusting the scale of various indicators to a standard range, traders can directly compare and correlate them to price action, making it easier to spot trends, divergences, and other key market patterns.
Keep attention!
It is important to note that no trading indicator or strategy is foolproof, and there is always a risk of losses in trading. While this indicator may provide useful information for making conclusions, it should not be used as the sole basis for making trading decisions. Traders should always use proper risk management techniques and consider multiple factors when making trading decisions.
adaptive_mfi
█ Description
Money flow an indexed value-based price and volume for the specified input length (lookback period). In summary, a momentum indicator that attempt to measure the flow of money (identify buying/selling pressure) through the asset within a specified period of time. MFI will oscillate between 0 to 100, oftentimes comprehend the analysis with oversold (20) or overbought (80) level, and a divergence that spotted to signaling a further change in trend/direction. As similar to many other indicators that use length (commonly a fixed value) as an input parameter, can be optimized by applied an adaptive filter (Ehlers), to solve the measuring cycle period. In this indicator, the adaptive measure of dominant cycle as an input parameter for the lookback period/n, will be applied to the money flow index.
█ Money Flow Index
mfi = 100 - (100/(1 + money_flow_ratio))
where:
n = int(dominant_cycle)
money_flow_ratio = n positive raw_money_flow / n negative raw_money_flow
raw_money_flow = typical_price * volume
typical_price = hlc3
█ Feature
The indicator will have a specified default parameter of: hp_period = 48; source = ohlc4
Horizontal line indicates positive/negative money flow
MFI Color Scheme: Solid; Normalized

Trend Reversal PredictorTrend Reversal Predictor - An Indicator for Identifying Potential Trend Reversals
This indicator is designed to help traders identify potential trend reversals in the financial markets. It combines multiple criteria including trend identification, volume analysis, average net price movement, and RSI (Relative Strength Index) crossing its moving average to highlight potential danger zones where a trend reversal may occur.
How it Works:
1. Trend Identification: The script uses the Hull Moving Average (HMA) and Parabolic SAR to determine the prevailing trend. The HMA is a smoothing indicator that reduces lag and provides a clear representation of the trend direction.
2. Danger Zone Identification: The script analyzes volume-related metrics and average net price movement to identify potential danger zones where trend reversals might occur. It calculates the rate of change of buying and selling volume and compares it to their respective averages. Additionally, it considers the average net price movement over a specified period.
3. RSI Integration: The script incorporates the RSI, a momentum oscillator, to evaluate overbought and oversold conditions. It calculates the RSI based on user-defined length and source inputs. It also calculates the RSI's moving average using different types of moving averages (SMA, EMA, etc.) specified by the user.

Volume-Blended Candlesticks [QuantVue]Introducing the Volume-Blended Candlestick Indicator, a powerful tool that seamlessly integrates volume information with candlesticks, providing you with a comprehensive view of market dynamics in a single glance.
The Volume-Blended Candlestick Indicator employs a unique approach of projecting volume totals by calculating the total volume traded per second and comparing it to the time left in the session as well as the historical average length selected by the user.
The indicator then dynamically adjusts the opacity of the candlestick colors based on the intensity of the projected volume. As volume intensifies, the candlestick colors become more pronounced, while low volume will cause colors to fade allowing you to visually perceive the level of buying or selling.
One of the standout features of the Volume-Blended Candlestick Indicator is its ability to identify pocket pivots. A pocket pivot is an up day with volume greater than any of the down days volume in the past 10 days. By highlighting these pocket pivots on your chart, the indicator helps you identify potential stealth accumulation.
In addition to blending volume with candlesticks and spotting pocket pivots, this versatile indicator provides you with an insightful table displaying key volume metrics. The table includes the average volume, average dollar volume, and the up-down volume ratio, allowing you to get a clear picture of buying and selling pressure.
Settings Include:
🔹Sensitivty Level: Normal, More, Less
🔹Volume MA Length
🔹Toggle Color based on previous close
🔹Show or hide volume info
🔹Chose candlestick colors
🔹Show or hide pocket pivots
🔹Show or hide volume info table

Volume Orderbook (Expo)█ Overview
The Volume Orderbook indicator is a volume analysis tool that visually resembles an order book. It's used for displaying trading volume data in a way that may be easier to interpret or more intuitive for certain traders, especially those familiar with order book analysis.
This indicator aggregate and display the total trading volume at different price levels over the entire range of data available on the chart, similar to how an order book displays current buy and sell orders at different price levels. However, unlike a real-time order book, it only considers historical trading data, not current bid and ask orders. This provides a 'historical order book' of sorts, indicating where most trading activities have taken place.
Summary
This is a volume-based indicator that shows the volume traded at specific price levels, highlighting areas of high and low activity.
█ Calculations
The algorithm operates by calculating the cumulative volume traded in each specific price zone within the range of data displayed on the chart. The length of each horizontal bar corresponds to the total volume of trades that occurred within that particular price zone.
In essence, when the price is in a specific zone, the volume is added to the bar representing that zone. A thicker bar implies a larger price zone, meaning that more volume is accumulated within that bar. Therefore, the thickness of the bar visually indicates the amount of trading activity that took place within the associated price zone.
█ How to use
The Volume Orderbook indicator serves as a beneficial tool for traders by identifying key price levels with a significant amount of trading activity. These high-volume areas could represent potential support or resistance levels due to the large number of orders situated there. The indicator's ability to spotlight these zones might be particularly advantageous in pinpointing breakouts or breakdowns when prices move beyond these high-volume regions. Moreover, the indicator could also assist traders in recognizing anomalies, such as when an unusually large volume of trades occurs at unconventional price levels.
Identify Key Price Levels: The indicator highlights high-volume areas where a significant number of trades have occurred, which could act as potential support or resistance levels. This is based on the notion that many traders have established positions at these prices, so these levels may serve as significant areas for market activity in the future.
Volume Nodes: These are the peaks (high-volume areas) and troughs (low-volume areas) seen on the indicator. High-volume nodes represent price levels at which a large amount of volume has been traded, typically areas of strong support or resistance. Conversely, low-volume nodes, where very little volume has been traded, indicate price levels that traders have shown little interest in the past and could potentially act as barriers to price. It's important to note that while high trading volume can imply significant market interest, it doesn't always mean the price will stop or reverse at these levels. Sometimes, prices can quickly move through high-volume areas if there are no current orders (demand) to match with the new orders (supply).
Analyze Market Psychology: The distribution of volume across different price levels can provide insights into the market's psychology, revealing the balance of power between buyers and sellers.
Highlight Potential Reversal Points: The indicator can help identify price levels with high traded volume where the market might be more likely to reverse since these levels have previously attracted significant interest from traders.
Validate Breakouts or Breakdowns: If the price moves convincingly past a high-volume node, it could indicate a strong trend, suggesting a potential breakout or breakdown. Conversely, if the price struggles to move past a high-volume node, it could suggest that the trend is weak and might potentially reverse.
Trade Reversals: High-volume areas could also indicate potential turning points in the market. If the price reaches these levels and then starts to move away, it might suggest a possible price reversal.
Confirm Other Signals: As with all technical indicators, the "Volume Orderbook" should ideally be used in conjunction with other forms of technical and fundamental analysis to confirm signals and increase the odds of successful trades.
Summary
The Volume Orderbook indicator allows traders to identify key price levels, analyze market psychology, highlight potential reversal points, validate breakouts or breakdowns, confirm other trading signals, and anticipate possible trade reversals, thereby serving as a robust tool for trading analysis.
█ Settings
Source: The user can select the source, the default of which is "close." This implies that volume is added to the volume order book when the closing price falls within a specific zone. Users can modify this to any indicator present on their chart. For example, if it's set to an SMA (Simple Moving Average) of 20, the volume will be added to the volume order book when the SMA 20 falls within the specific zone.
Rows and width: These settings allow users to adjust the representation of volume order book zones. "ROWS" pertains to the number of volume order book zones displayed, while "WIDTH" refers to the breadth of each zone.
Table and Grid: These settings allow traders to customize the Volume order-book's position and appearance. By adjusting the "left" parameter, users can shift the position of the Volume order book on the chart; a higher value pushes the order book further to the right. Additionally, users can enable "Table Border" and "Table Grid" options to add gridlines or borders to the Volume order book for easier viewing and interpretation.

RSI Trend Transform [wbburgin]The RSI Trend Transform indicator is a dual-concept indicator that transforms volume data and price data into two different RSI values, which can then be used together to determine trend strength and momentum. The volume RSI does not use any price data in its calculation - it is purely a transform from nondirectional volume into a directional indicator.
The RSI for all three RSI values (price, volume,combined average) can be plotted as either stochastic or normal. The RSI calculation is adapted for use on volume, which is why the normal ta.rsi() function is not used for the price RSI calculation; both use the same formula for indicator consistency.
How to Use the Indicator
In the examples below, the Price RSI is plotted in yellow and the Volume RSI is plotted in red (length = 200, which is why the indicator is large in these examples). The indicator can be used on any timeframe and any asset, provided volume data is provided by the vendor to TradingView.
Identifying Bullish Trends
A rising volume RSI with a rising price RSI signifies a bullish trend. Example 1:
Example 2:
You can use the combined RSI (the average of the volume RSI and the price RSI) to help with the identification of these trends:
Identifying Bearish Trends
A falling volume RSI with a falling price RSI signifies a bearish trend:
Example 2:
Settings
Source is the source of the price RSI, the volume RSI will by default use volume in its calculations. If you have other indicators on-chart, you could even use the ATR, a volatility indicator, or any nondirectional or directional indicator and transform it into the "price" RSI.
Length is both the length of the RSI and the stochastic.
The next three rows are for each RSI you can plot on the indicator: price RSI, volume RSI, and combined RSI (average of price and volume). The first checkbox plots/removes them from the chart, you can subsequently choose the type of RSI (regular or stochastic), the color of the plot, and the length of the EMA smoothing applied afterward to the plot.
Upper Band and Lower Band refer to the overbought and oversold lines, respectively.
A note about the combined RSI- you will be unable to spot divergences if the combined RSI is the only plot on the indicator, so I encourage you to use the combined RSI as a way to confirm the overall trend if you notice the price RSI and the volume RSI and trending similarly.
Volume-Weighted Trend Filter CloudThe Volume-Weighted Trend Filter Cloud is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to identify trend directions and potential buy/sell signals in a trading instrument. The indicator combines volume-weighted moving averages, average true range (ATR), and cloud plotting techniques to provide a comprehensive view of the market trend.
Inputs:
Length: Specifies the length of Algo used for trend analysis. Default value is 14.
Multiplier: Adjusts the width of the trend filter bands based on the ATR. Default value is 2.0.
Tenkan-sen Period: Defines the period for calculating the Tenkan-sen line. Default value is 200.
Kijun-sen Period: Sets the period for calculating the Kijun-sen line. Default value is 400.
Senkou Span Period: Determines the period for calculating the Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B lines. Default value is 600.
Calculation:
Average True Range (ATR): The indicator calculates the ATR based on the specified moving average length.
Trend Filter Bands: The basic upper and lower bands are calculated using the highest high and lowest low values, respectively, along with the multiplier and ATR. These bands are then adjusted to create the final upper and lower bands, taking into account the previous values.
Trend Direction: The indicator determines the trend direction by comparing the close price with the lower and upper bands. If the close price is above the lower band, it indicates an upward trend (trendUp = 1). If the close price is below the upper band, it indicates a downward trend (trendDown = 1).
Volume-Weighted Z-Score: The indicator calculates the volume-weighted Z-Score by determining the mean and standard deviation of the close price with volume weighting. The Z-Score represents the deviation of the close price from the mean in terms of standard deviations.
Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, Senkou Span A, and Senkou Span B: These lines are calculated using the respective periods and the average of the high and low prices.
Sigmoid Transformation: The indicator applies the sigmoid function to the Z-Score values to obtain sigmoid-transformed values for open, high, low, and close prices. These transformed values help in visualizing the trend strength.
Plotting:
Trend Filter: The trend filter is plotted as a line that changes color based on the trend direction. The lower band is displayed for an upward trend, while the upper band is displayed for a downward trend.
Trend Cloud: The cloud plot represents the Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B lines. The cloud color changes based on the trend direction, providing a visual representation of the market trend.
Buy and Sell Signals: The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the crossover of fast and slow moving averages, Z-Score values, trend direction, and other conditions. These signals are labeled on the chart, indicating potential entry points for traders.
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on specific conditions, including the intersection of fast and slow moving averages, Z-Score values, trend direction, and more.
Buy signals are described as a "buy signal" on the chart, which indicates potential entry points for buy trades.
Sell signals are described as a "sell signal", which indicates potential entry points for sell trades. The signals in light color represent that they are signals in the opposite direction of the cloud that can be considered as exit points
Consolidation Range Tracker[Trendoscope]🎲 Introducing Consolidation Range Tracker: Visualising Price Consolidation after Impulsive Moves
ConsolidationRangeTracker is an innovative indicator designed to assist traders in identifying and tracking price consolidation zones following impulsive market moves. This indicator is built on Auto Motive Wave indicator and Interactive Motive Wave indicator. This is also an attempt to plot Wyckoff Distribution pattern. But, instead of implying the price movement after consolidation, we are just leaving it to the interpretation of the users.
🎲 Process
Find impulse wave using the methods defined in Auto Motive Wave indicator and Interactive Motive Wave indicator
Define the range of consolidation based on predefined ratio (available as input settings)
Track the price movement within range along with number of bars and cumulative volume.
When price breaks out of the range, check if price ranged long enough to consider it as consolidation.
Retain the drawings and visualisation if the consolidation is confirmed before the breakout. Or else, remove them from the chart to keep it clean.
Overall output can be visualised as
Note : Patterns will not be there on the chart every time. It is normal for indicator not to show any drawings or patterns on the chart.
🎲 Stages of the Indicator
🎯 When an Impulse is formed
When an impulse wave is detected, wave is drawn on the chart along with details such as number of bars and volume spawning the impulse wave and the calculated range based on the input value. An alert of new impulse is also triggered if configured for alerts.
🎯 When an Impulse is updated
When price extends further without consolidating, the impulse wave is also updated to consider the latest values. This repaint is expected and as designed. We will also trigger an alert related to update of an impulse wave.
🎯 Update of range as and when it happens
Range is not bound and it keeps moving based on the highest and lowest price. Value of range is constant and it is calculated based on certain ratio of impulse as configured in settings. But, this range can move up and down based on which direction the price moves.
For example, this is the initial range when the impulse wave is formed.
But, after certain bars, we can see that the range shift slightly up because, price has more upward movement than downward.
No alerts are triggered during this phase.
🎯 Confirmed consolidation
Consolidation range is confirmed after price range through certain bars with respect to number of bars involved in the impulse wave. The default setting of 1 for range bar ratio means that range is confirmed when price ranges for same number of bars as that of impulse.
An alert is triggered when consolidation range is confirmed.
🎯 Breakout
Breakout happen if the price exceeds the range bracket. Breakout may happen either before or after confirmation of consolidation. In either case, an alert is triggered.
Patterns are removed from the chart if the consolidation is not confirmed. In other words, the price did not stay in range for long time.
🎲 Settings
Simple settings to define the zigzag base and few pattern related configuration.
🎲 Alerts
Alerts are configured using alert function and are triggered in following scenarios.
A new impulse created
An impulse wave is updated
Consolidation range confirmed
Breakout with/without confirmed consolidation.
🎲 Use Cases
Indicator can be used for identifying few types of patterns on the chart. But, they may involve user's discretion. Major patterns that can be identified are:
🎯 Flag Formation Consolidation after an impulse can be termed as flag and is a sign of trend continuation after consolidation.
🎯 Wyckoff Distribution Long consolidation with high volume after an impulse can be a sign of wyckoff distribution formation. This pattern is trend reversal pattern.
Bank Nifty ScalpingThis indicator is designed for scalping purposes.
Users have the option to input the desired source and enable or disable the following indicators:
Multiple EMA (Exponential moving average)
Simultaneously displays multiple moving averages to quickly identify shifts in momentum and obtain confirmation from slower-moving averages.
By default, the EMA display settings are configured to show the 20-day EMA and the 200-day EMA. However, users have the flexibility to modify the display settings according to their preferences. This means that users can customize the indicator to show the EMA values of their choice, such as EMA 50 and EMA 100.
VWAP ( Volume weighted average price )
Default value is set to ‘hl2’
A bullish trend is indicated when the price is above the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), while a bearish trend is indicated when the price is below the VWAP.
VWMA ( Volume weighted moving average )
In the VWMA (Volume Weighted Moving Average) indicator, a default value of 20 is used. If the price is higher than the VWMA, it typically indicates a bullish trend. Conversely, if the price is lower than the VWMA, it suggests a bearish trend. The VWMA takes into account both price and volume, providing a weighted average that can help identify shifts in market sentiment.
Multiple SuperTrends
Default value is 10 and 2 / 10 and 3
A bullish trend is identified when the price is above the SuperTrend indicator, whereas a bearish trend is observed when the price is below the SuperTrend indicator.
Camarilla Pivot Points (Level 3 and 4 only)
Levels 3 and 4 serve as crucial support and resistance levels, acting as the final line of defense against strong trends. These levels are expected to generate reversals, where price often changes direction.
CPR ( Central Pivot Points)
The Daily Central Pivot Point Indicator is a popular tool used in technical analysis. It calculates several levels based on the previous day's high, low, and closing prices.
Strong Volume
The user has the ability to set the average volume for Nifty and BankNifty indices to calculate strong volume.
Elder Impulse System
The Impulse System, developed by Alexander Elder and discussed in his book "New Trading for a Living," is a censorship trading system designed to determine whether a trade should be allowed or prohibited. Additionally, it can be used to identify when a trend is starting to weaken. The Impulse System relies on the following factors:
1. Slope of a Fast Exponential Moving Average (EMA): The fast EMA's slope reflects the price's inertia or momentum.
2. Slope of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD): The MACD's slope indicates the strength or power of the price movement.
Based on these factors, the Impulse System categorizes candles or price bars into three colors:
* Green Candle: When both the fast EMA and MACD are rising, indicating upward momentum.
* Red Candle: When both the fast EMA and MACD are declining, suggesting downward momentum.
* Blue Candle: In all other cases where the conditions for green or red candles are not met, representing a neutral or uncertain market condition.
By applying the Impulse System, traders can gain insights into the market trend, its strength, and potential shifts in momentum, helping them make informed trading decisions.

Volume Suite - By Leviathan (CVD, Volume Delta, Relative Volume)Volume Suite is an all-in-one script that includes several volume-based indicators such as CVD, Volume Delta, Relative Volume, Buy/Sell Volume, Cumulative Relative Volume and more. Additionally, it offers fully customisable appearance and features for improved data visualization, such as highlights for high volume activity, small price changes with high volume, or large price changes with low volume and more.
Data available in version 1:
- Volume Delta
Volume Delta is the net difference between Buy Volume and Sell Volume at a given bar. Positive Delta indicates that Buy Volume > Sell Volume, while Negative Delta means that Sell Volume > Buy Volume. As there is not way to get tick data on Tradingview, calculating Volume Delta is improvised by using the direction of lower timeframe candles and their volume.
- Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)
CVD is a running total/cumulation of Volume Delta values, where positive VD gets added to the sum and negative VD gets subtracted from the sum. It can be used for trend strength analysis, divergence strategies, sentiment, etc.
- Buy/Sell Volume
Buy and Sell Volume provides an insight into volume activity in a given bar by estimating the buying/selling volume based on the direction of lower timeframe candles and their volume.
- Relative Volume
Relative Volume is used to compare current trading volume to past trading volume over a given period. For instance, a relative volume of 1.0 indicates that volume is at an average level, while a relative volume of 2.0 suggests that the volume is twice as high as the average.
- Cumulative Relative Volume (CRVOL)
CRVOL is a running total/cumulation of Relative Volume values, where RVOL at close>open gets added to the sum and RVOL at close<open gets subtracted from the sum. It can be used for trend strength analysis, divergence strategies, sentiment, etc.
Alerts, aggregated data and more data sets coming in future updates.
Force Index with ATR channels-----------------------------------------------------------------
General Description:
This indicator multiplies the change of closing price for any bar by volume during that bar and plots an exponential moving average of the result. It is excellent for analyzing volume, deeper than simply looking at volume bars.
The cool thing about this particular version of the Force Index is that Average True Range (ATR) channels have been added to turn it into an excellent tool for identifying intermediate tops and bottoms. Force Index with ATR channels does not catch all turns, but the ones it identifies deserve very serious attention.
The indicator works on any market, any instrument, any timeframe, and any market condition.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
How it works:
Calculation:
Force Index = {Close (current period) - Close (prior period)} x Volume (current period)
If we smooth the indicator with a moving average the indicator gives much better trading signals.
Force Index(smoothed) = X-period EMA of Force Index
Changing the EMA length changes the focus of Force Index. Longer-term 13-bar EMA of Force Index helps identify intermediate trend reversals. Shorter-term 2-bar EMA helps identify market extremes.
The indicator also has the option to plot ATR channels to Force Index. Whenever the Force Index rises above or falls below its 3-ATR channel, it signals that the ticker has reached an area of an unsustainable extreme. That’s where rallies and declines become exhausted and prices tend to reverse. This is one of very few tools that are equally efficient in calling both top and bottom areas. This indicator places a red dot above the plot when the EMA of Force Index rises above the 3-ATR channel. It places a green dot underneath the plot when that EMA declines below the 3-ATR channel.
These signals work especially well on higher timeframes, weekly charts for example. Of course, you are welcome to experiment with them in any timeframe.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Options/adjustments for this indicator:
* EMA Period of Force Index
* EMA Period for ATR calculations
* Plot ATRs?
* Plot ATR Signals?
