Volume Surge by Mashrab

The "Volume Surge" indicator is like a simple market health checkup. It looks at how much of an asset (like a stock or crypto) is being traded right now and compares it to the recent past. Think of it as a way to quickly see if interest in that asset is suddenly spiking, fading, or staying the same.
The indicator shows this information in an easy-to-read table right on your chart.
How it works:
The indicator keeps track of two main things for you:
Current Volume: The total trading volume over the last "N" days (or whatever time period you choose).
Previous Volume: The total trading volume over the period right before that


Then, it gives you a summary:
The "Ratio" tells you how many times bigger or smaller the current volume is.
The "Percent Change" shows the percentage jump in volume.
How to use it:
This indicator helps you see when something interesting might be happening. Here are a few ways traders use it:
Confirm Breakouts: If a stock breaks above a key price level and the indicator shows a huge volume surge, it’s a stronger signal that the move is real and not a false alarm.
Spot Reversals: If a stock has been trending up but the volume starts to drop off, it could mean the trend is losing steam. A sudden, massive volume surge on a down day might indicate panic selling, which can sometimes happen right before the price turns around.
Check Trend Strength: A healthy trend usually has increasing volume going in the same direction. For example, if a stock is in an uptrend, you want to see lots of volume on the days it goes up.



This indicator isn't a crystal ball, but it's a great tool for understanding the "who" and "how much" behind a price move. It helps you see when a price change is backed by a lot of market activity, which often makes the move more trustworthy.
