RedK Volume-Weighted Directional Efficiency Index (DXF)RedK Volume-Weighted Directional Efficiency Index (DXF) is a momentum indicator - that builds on Kaufman's Efficiency Ratio (ER) concept.
DXF utilizes a restricted +100/-100 oscillator to represent the "quality" of a trend, and does a good job in detecting the possibility of an upcoming trend change (in both direction and quality), improving our ability to make decisions on trade entries and exits.
Here's a quick background on Kaufman's Efficiency Ratio (ER)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied from internet sources -----------------------------
Developed by Perry Kaufman and introduced in his book “New Trading Systems and Methods”, the Efficiency Ratio reflects relative market speed to volatility. There are cases, when it is used as a filter, which helps a trader to avoid ”choppy” markets or trading ranges and to identify smoother trends.
ER is the result of dividing the net change in price movement during n-periods by the sum of all bar-to-bar price changes during the same n-periods. In case the market is trending smoother, then the ratio will be higher. In case the ratio shows readings in proximity to zero, this implies that market movement is inefficient and ”choppy”.
If the Efficiency Ratio shows a reading of +100, this means that the trading instrument is in a bull trend and trending with perfect efficiency.
If the Efficiency Ratio shows a reading of -100, this means that the trading instrument is in a bear trend and trending with perfect efficiency.
It is impossible for any instrument to have a perfect Efficiency ratio, because any movement against the major trend during the examined period of time would cause the ratio to drop.
If the Efficiency Ratio shows a reading above +30 (common setting for the "Significant Level"), this is indicative of a quality bull trend. If the ratio shows a reading below -30, this is indicative of a quality bear trend.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- End of Copy -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kaufman also used the ER as basis for his famous Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA).

How is DXF different from other ER-based indicators?
------------------------------------------------------------------
- Let's get the easy part out of the way: DXF has a "volume-weighting" option ✔
This option is OFF by default (to avoid errors with instruments with no volume data)
- once this option is applied, it provides the benefit of combining the volume effect into the calculation - those who appreciate the effect of volume on price action will hopefully find this option valuable
- The calculation of ER and how it can be "best utilized":
Let's examine the ER concept a bit closer: as a (math) concept, the (original) Efficiency Ratio (ER) takes the positive change of the price of an instrument during a certain period, and divide it by the sum of (absolute) price moves that were observed during that same period.
So, in the trader's language, we will be saying "out of a total of $20 moves (up and down) that MSFT did in the past 10 days, MSFT only made a net change of $5 up during that period" - so the "10-day ER" for MSFT in that case is 5/20 = 25% -- then we continue to observe that ongoing "10-day ER" and if it increases, we can expect that MSFT is going to establish a strong move (trend) up --- right?
the magic word here is to "observe the ongoing ER" - many of the ER based indicators just use the ER as calculated by Kaufman's original method. IMHO, these are just "point-in-time readings" - if we hope to get real insights from the ER, we need to take an average of that reading - for our "time window" we're interested in - and only then we can identify trends and patterns in the ER value as it changes during that windowss- DXF does that - and that allows a trader to say "the (weighted) 5-day average of the 10-day ER for MSFT is increasing, and that why i expect an up-trend" -- makes sense ? both the "Lookback" used to calculate the ER, and the Length of observed "window" for the Average ER are adjustable in DXF settings
Other Uses and Settings :
---------------------------------
- As a momentum indicator, DXF can predict an upcoming change of trend - cause that will reflect on the average ER value. There are few examples in the chart where the price move and ER trend *do not agree* - The trader can see these signs and take decisions accordingly
- DXF can help reveal best entries and exits: assume we are long-term bullish on MSFT, and we want to "buy the dip" - DXF can help reveal the time where price is recovering from extreme weakness - and that would be the ideal buy opportunities for us - exampled marked on the chart
- the Stepping & Smoothing options enable better visualization of the DXF plot. the "raw" DXF is still shown as a silver line.
- The "Significant Levels" option is available and is set to -20/+20 by default .. also adjustable in indicator settings.
- Please use DXF in combination with other trend and volume indicators, and with thorough chart / price action analysis and not in isolation to ensure you get proper signal confirmation for trades. In the chart above, you can see DXF combined with a moving average that can act as a filter and to confirm the price moves.

As usual, feedback & comments are welcome - if you find this work useful in your trading arsenal, please share a comment - i would be more than happy to learn about that. Good luck!

Relative Volume Combined With a Cumulative FunctionHi everyone
The today's script was suggested by a follower.
--------------------------------------
1 minute of Knowledge
--------------------------------------
Many traders look at volume as a pre-signal that a move may happen.
In trading, some say that "the volume precedes the movement".
This simply means that often volume will increase before a significant move in the stock.
Imagine if a unique trader is buying a crypto/stock. The volume is unlikely to move.
But, if all the mass goes to mass spot buy an asset, then we could see a volume spike announcing a potential upwards move.
---------------------------------------------
What's the story with that indicator?
---------------------------------------------
It's an interesting way of presenting the volume data.
Will show the total volume for the selected period.
You can choose between relative and cumulative presentation.
The users can display the consecutive rising volume above the 0 line and the failing volume below that line.
--------------------------------------
Mix knowledge with usefulness
--------------------------------------
A price making a higher/high (HH) or lower/low (LL) has a real and strong meaning- a HH or LL on a volume has a significant meaning also.
Increasing volume for a stock/crypto, could signify that buyers were willing to purchase a bigger number of shares at a higher price (comparatively to the day before)
Obviously, non-stop crazy buying/shorting won't work at some point - and that "some point" may hurt a bit.
Such volume indicator combined with others like momentum or strength indicators is a nice trading strategy.
The volume announces that a move may happen and the other indicators will confirm the prophecy :)
Peace

Ord Volume [LucF]Tim Ord came up with the Ord Volume concept. The idea is similar to Weis Wave , except that where Weis Wave keeps a cumulative tab of each wave’s successive volume columns, Ord Volume tracks the wave's average volume .
Features
You can choose to distinguish the area’s colors when the average is rising/falling (default).
You can show an EMA of the wave averages, which is different than an EMA on raw volume.
You can show (default) the last wave’s ending average over the current wave, to help in comparing relative levels.
You can change the length of the trend that needs to be broken for a new wave to start, as well as the price used in trend detection.
Use Cases
As with Weis Wave, what I look at first are three characteristics of the waves: their length, height and slope. I then compare those to the corresponding price movements, looking for discrepancies. For example, consecutive bearish waves of equal strength associated with lesser and lesser price movements are often a good indication of an impeding reversal.
Because Ord Volume uses average rather than cumulative volume, I find it is often easier to distinguish what is going on during waves, especially exhaustion at the end of waves.
Tim Ord has a method for entries and exits where he uses Ord Volume in conjunction with tests of support and resistance levels. Here are two articles published in 2004 where Ord explains his technique:
pr.b5z.net
n.b5z.net
Note
Being dependent on volume information as it is currently available in Pine, which does not include a practical way to retrieve delta volume information, the indicator suffers the same lack of precision as most other Pine-built volume indicators. For those not aware of the issue, the problem is that there is no way to distinguish the buying and selling volume (delta volume) in a bar, other than by looping through inside intervals using the security() function, which for me makes performance unsustainable in day to day use, while only providing an approximation of delta volume.
Volume x PriceThis is a simple indicator that calculates volume times price (money volume). Both asset volume and money volume are important indicators in TA. As you can see in the chart above, money volume (moving average) was increasing while the asset volume was not during late 2017. This could have led to wrong interpretations. Money volume becomes more important to consider when the difference in asset price is 'relatively' high.
Features:
- In addition to default options on volume indicator, it is possible to color volume bars based on "money flow multiplier" sign (close-(low+high)/2)
- Money factor can be disabled to show regular volume
Note: Most exchanges show asset volume but there are some like Bitmex that show money volume. Using this indicator on Bitmex type tickers should be avoided.
PS: I couldn't find any indicator for money volume so I had to develop this.
Your feedback is very welcome. If you know similar indicators, please let me know.
Volume Range EventsChanges in the feelings (positive, negative, neutral) in the market concerning the valuation of an instrument are often preceded with sudden outbursts of buying and selling frenzies. The aim of this indicator is to report such outbursts. We can see them as expansions of volume, sometimes 10 times more than usual. and as extensions of the trading range, also sometimes 10 times more than usual (e.g. usual range is 10 cent suddenly a whole dollar.) The changes are calculated in such a way that these fit between plus and minus 100 percent, the bars are scaled in some sort of logarithmic way. The Emoline is the same as the one in the True Balance of Power indicator, which I already published
ONLY RISES ARE EVENTS
Sometimes analysts are tempted to give meaning to low volume or small ranges. These simply mean that the market has little interest in trading this instrument. I believe that in such cases the trader needs to wait for expansion and extension events to happen, then he can make a better guess of where the market is heading. As events often mark the beginning or ending of a trend, this indicator provides an early and clear signal, because it doesn’t bother us about non-events.
WHAT IS USUAL?
If the algorithm would use an average as a normal to scale volume or range events, then previous peaks will act as spoilers by making the average so high that a following peak is scaled too small. I developed a function, usual() , that kicks out all extremes of a ‘population of values’ and which returns the average of the non-extreme values. It can be called with any serial. This function is called by both algorithms that report volume and range peaks, which guarantees that the results are really comparable. As this function has a fixed look back of 8 periods, we might state that ‘usual’ is a short lived relative value. I think this doesn’t matter for the practical use of the indicator.
COLORING AND INTERPRETATION
I follow the categories in the ‘Better Volume Indicator’, published by LeazyBear, these are:
1. Climactic Volumes, event >40 % (this means peak is 1.5 X usual)
LIME: Climax Buying Volume, direction up, range event also > 30 %
RED: Climax Selling Volume, direction down, range event also > 30 %
AQUA: Climax Churning Volume, both directions, range event < 30%
2. Smaller Volumes, event <40 %
GREEN: Supportive Volume, both directions, if combined with range event
BLUE: Churning Volume, both directions, if not combined with range event (Professional Trading)
3. Just Range Events

VPT_OBVThis is a derivation of the On Balance Volume Indicator.
The idea behind it is that volume consists of two parts. The driving theory is the basic law of supply and demand.
Part 1: Volume consists of shares traded at an equilibrium price. An equal number of buyers and sellers are present during this volume. This area is displayed as the upper and lower shadows on a single candlestick. For this indicator, volume traded in equilibrium is not included in the display.
Part 2: Volume consists of shares that are not traded at an equilibrium price, driving price up or down for the time period. In this volume, buyers or sellers are not present in equal numbers. This area is displayed as the body of the candlestick. This indicator focuses on this part of volume.
VPT_OBV plots only the volume that occurs at the difference in price between the open and the close. To achieve this, volume is divided by the difference between the high and the low (in pennies). Next, the difference between the open and close is calculated (in pennies). Volume is then divided by the difference in the high and low, to get the amount of volume needed to move the asset up or down by $0.01 during the time period. This number is then multiplied by the difference between the open and close.
VPT_OBV plots the outcome as a cumulative total. A simple moving average of the VPT_OBV is thrown in to provide smoothing.
Clean Volume BarsAs it says, simple clean volume indicator.
I could find what I wanted so I created this using AI.
Here is the script:
//@version=5
indicator("Clean Volume Bars", shorttitle="Clean Vol", overlay=false)
vma = ta.sma(volume, 20)
col = close>open? color.new(color.green,0) : close
Exchanges Combined Volume📊 Exchanges Combined Volume
(Aggregated Multi-Exchange Volume: Binance, OKX, Bybit, etc.) by BIGTAKER*
🔍 Purpose
The Exchanges Combined Volume indicator aggregates real-time trading volumes from multiple global exchanges for a specific asset (e.g., a cryptocurrency).
Instead of relying on a single market, it provides a broader view of market activity, helping users detect abnormal volume behavior and increased participation across the entire market.
⚙️ Supported Exchanges
* USDT Markets
`Binance`, `OKX`, `Bybit`, `Bitget`, `Gate.io`
* USD Markets
`Coinbase`, `Bitfinex`, `Bitstamp`
* Default
Includes the current chart symbol’s native volume by default.
🧮 Core Calculation Logic
1. 📛 Symbol Normalization (cleanSymbol)
Prefixes such as `1000`, `10000`, `100000`, or `1M` (common in leveraged tickers) are automatically removed to extract the base token.
> Example:
> `1000PEPEUSDT` → `PEPEUSDT`
2. 📈 Volume Requests from External Exchanges
Volume is retrieved using the `` format (e.g., `'BINANCE:PEPEUSDT'`, `'COINBASE:BTCUSD'`).
Invalid or delisted pairs are safely ignored using `ignore_invalid_symbol=true`.
3. 📊 Total Volume Calculation
totalVolume = usdtVolume + usdVolume + currentSymbolVolume
The indicator sums the volume from all target exchanges plus the volume from the current chart symbol.
4. 📏 Comparison to Average Volume
* Period: `length = 60` (Simple Moving Average over 60 candles)
* A candle is considered **high-intensity** if:
5. 🎨 Visual Styling
| Condition | Color | Meaning |
| -------------------------- | --------------------- | ----------------------- |
| High-volume Bullish Candle | Light Green (#30db78) | Strong Buying Activity |
| High-volume Bearish Candle | Bright Red (#ff0000) | Strong Selling Activity |
| Normal Bullish Candle | Dark Green (#3c7058) | Regular Buying Volume |
| Normal Bearish Candle | Dark Red (#682e2c) | Regular Selling Volume |
📌 Use Cases
* Detect synchronized volume surges across major global exchanges.
* Identify pre-pump accumulation phases on altcoins.
* Combine with premium gap indicators (e.g., Kimchi Premium) to identify leading market sentiment.
* Confirm breakout momentum with multi-exchange volume validation.
📘 Notes & Warnings
* Listing differences across exchanges may result in **zero volume** on some platforms.
* Prefixes like `1000`, `1M`, etc., are automatically removed to **improve symbol matching accuracy**.
* As volume units are not standardized, this indicator is best suited for **absolute value analysis**, not ratio-based comparisons.
Delta Volume BubblesDelta Volume Bubbles
Overview
The Delta Volume Bubbles indicator is an advanced order flow visualization tool that displays buying and selling pressure through dynamic bubble representations on your chart. Unlike traditional volume indicators that only show total volume, this indicator calculates the net delta volume (difference between buying and selling volume) and presents it as color-coded bubbles of varying sizes.
How It Works
Core Calculation Method
The indicator uses a sophisticated approach to estimate delta volume from standard OHLCV data:
1. Price Action Analysis: Analyzes the relationship between open, high, low, and close prices to determine market aggression
2. Body Ratio Calculation: body_ratio = |close - open| / (high - low)
3. Aggressive Factor: Applies multipliers based on price action:
- Strong moves (body_ratio > 0.7): 1.5x multiplier
- Moderate moves (body_ratio > 0.4): 1.2x multiplier
- Weak moves: 1.0x multiplier
4. Delta Volume Estimation:
- Buy Volume: price_change > 0 ? volume × aggressive_factor : 0
- Sell Volume: price_change < 0 ? volume × aggressive_factor : 0
- Net Delta: buy_volume - sell_volume
5. Delta Strength Normalization: delta_strength = |net_delta| / sma(volume, 20)
Percentile-Based Filtering
The indicator uses percentile filtering instead of fixed thresholds, making it adaptive to market conditions:
- Bubble Filter: Only shows bubbles when volume exceeds the specified percentile (default: 60%)
- Label Filter: Only displays numbers when volume exceeds a higher percentile (default: 90%)
- Dynamic Adaptation: Automatically adjusts to changing market volatility
Visual Elements
Bubble Sizes
- Tiny: Delta strength < 0.3
- Small: Delta strength 0.3 - 0.7
- Normal: Delta strength 0.7 - 1.2
- Large: Delta strength 1.2 - 2.0
- Huge: Delta strength > 2.0
Color Coding
- Aggressive Buy (Bright Green): Strong buying pressure with high body ratio
- Aggressive Sell (Bright Red): Strong selling pressure with high body ratio
- Passive Buy (Light Green): Moderate buying pressure
- Passive Sell (Light Red): Moderate selling pressure
Intensity Mode
Alternative coloring based on delta strength rather than flow direction:
- Gray: Low intensity (< 0.5)
- Blue: Medium intensity (0.5 - 1.0)
- Orange: High intensity (1.0 - 2.0)
- Red: Extreme intensity (> 2.0)
Parameters
Order Flow Settings
- Show Bubbles: Toggle bubble display on/off
- Bubble Volume %ile: Percentile threshold for bubble display (0-100%)
- Intensity Mode: Switch between flow-based and intensity-based coloring
Bubble Labels
- Show Numbers in Bubbles: Toggle numerical labels on/off
- Label Volume %ile: Higher percentile threshold for label display (0-100%)
Numbers are displayed in K-notation (e.g., 25000 → 25K, 1500000 → 1.5M) for better readability.
Ideal Usage Scenarios
Best Market Conditions
- High volume sessions: More accurate delta calculations
- Trending markets: Clear directional flow identification
- Breakout scenarios: Spot aggressive buying/selling at key levels
- Support/resistance testing: Identify accumulation vs distribution
Trading Applications
1. Entry Timing: Look for aggressive flow in your trade direction
2. Exit Signals: Watch for opposing aggressive flow
3. Trend Confirmation: Consistent flow direction confirms trends
4. Volume Climax: Huge bubbles may indicate exhaustion points
Optimization Tips
Parameter Adjustment
- Lower percentiles (40-60%): More bubbles, good for active markets
- Higher percentiles (70-90%): Fewer bubbles, focus on significant events
- Label percentile: Set 20-30% higher than bubble percentile for clarity
Visual Optimization
- Intensity mode: Better for identifying unusual volume spikes
- Flow mode: Better for directional bias analysis
- Label toggle: Turn off in crowded markets, on for key levels
Limitations
- Estimation-based: Uses approximation algorithms, not true order flow data
- Volume dependency: Requires accurate volume data to function properly
- Timeframe sensitivity: Works best on intraday timeframes with active volume
- Market hours: Most effective during high-volume trading sessions
Technical Notes
The indicator implements advanced Pine Script features including:
- Dynamic percentile calculations using ta.percentile_linear_interpolation()
- Conditional plotting with multiple size categories
- Custom number formatting functions
- Efficient label management to prevent display limits
This tool is designed for traders who want to understand the underlying buying and selling pressure beyond simple volume analysis, providing insights into market sentiment and potential turning points.
OBV with MA & Bollinger Bands by Marius1032OBV with MA & Bollinger Bands by Marius1032
This script adds customizable moving averages and Bollinger Bands to the classic OBV (On Balance Volume) indicator. It helps identify volume-driven momentum and trend strength.
Features:
OBV-based trend tracking
Optional smoothing: SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, VWMA
Optional Bollinger Bands with SMA
Potential Combinations and Trading Strategies:
Breakouts: Look for price breakouts from the Bollinger Bands, and confirm with a rising OBV for an uptrend or falling OBV for a downtrend.
Trend Reversals: When the price touches a Bollinger Band, examine the OBV for divergence. A bullish divergence (price lower low, OBV higher low) near the lower band could signal a reversal.
Volume Confirmation: Use OBV to confirm the strength of the trend indicated by Bollinger Bands. For example, if the BBs indicate an uptrend and OBV is also rising, it reinforces the bullish signal.
1. On-Balance Volume (OBV):
Purpose: OBV is a momentum indicator that uses volume flow to predict price movements.
Calculation: Volume is added on up days and subtracted on down days.
Interpretation: Rising OBV suggests potential upward price movement. Falling OBV suggests potential lower prices.
Divergence: Divergence between OBV and price can signal potential trend reversals.
2. Moving Average (MA):
Purpose: Moving Averages smooth price fluctuations and help identify trends.
Combination with OBV: Pairing OBV with MAs helps confirm trends and identify potential reversals. A crossover of the OBV line and its MA can signal a trend reversal or continuation.
3. Bollinger Bands (BB):
Purpose: BBs measure market volatility and help identify potential breakouts and trend reversals.
Structure: They consist of a moving average (typically 20-period) and two standard deviation bands.
Combination with OBV: Combining BBs with OBV allows for a multifaceted approach to market analysis. For example, a stock hitting the lower BB with a rising OBV could indicate accumulation and a potential upward reversal.

Tight Range Display with Background🌟 Tight Range Transparency Display with Background
What Is This Indicator?
Hey traders! Ever wanted a simple way to spot those quiet, low-volatility moments in the market that often signal a big move is coming? The Tight Range Transparency Display with Background does exactly that! This indicator highlights periods where the price is moving in a tight range—think of it as the calm before the storm. It paints the chart background blue to show these zones, with the shade getting darker the tighter the range becomes. It’s like having a visual cue to say, “Hey, something might be brewing here!”
Why You’ll Love It
Spot Key Moments Easily: The blue background makes it super easy to see when the market is in a tight range, which often happens before breakouts or big trends.
Customizable Settings: You can tweak the range thresholds to match your trading style—whether you’re looking for super tight zones or slightly broader ones.
Visual Clarity: The background gets darker when the range is tighter, giving you a quick sense of how compressed the price action is.
Perfect for Any Market: Works on stocks, forex, crypto, or any chart you trade, across any timeframe.
How to Use It
Add It to Your Chart:
Just copy this script into TradingView’s Pine Editor and hit "Add to Chart." It’ll overlay right on your price chart.
Tweak the Settings:
Open the indicator settings and use the dropdown menus to pick your preferred "Tight Range %" and "Wide Range %." For example, set a Tight Range % of 2.0% to catch smaller ranges, or go higher like 10.0% for broader ones.
You can also adjust the ATR Period (default is 5) to make the indicator more or less sensitive to recent price swings.
Watch for the Blue Background:
When the price enters a tight range, the chart background turns blue. The darker the blue, the tighter the range—meaning a potential breakout could be closer!
Trade Smarter:
Use these tight range zones to prepare for potential breakouts. For example, if you see a dark blue background, it might be a good time to watch for a big price move.
Pair this with other tools like support/resistance levels or volume spikes to confirm your trades.
Who Is This For?
Swing Traders: Perfect for spotting consolidation zones before a big swing.
Breakout Traders: Tight ranges often lead to breakouts—use this to time your entries.
Smart Money Followers: If you’re into smart money concepts, tight ranges can signal accumulation or distribution phases.
Beginners & Pros Alike: It’s easy to use for new traders but powerful enough for seasoned pros.
Real-World Example
Imagine you’re trading a stock on a 1-hour chart. You notice the background turns blue, and it’s getting darker over a few bars. This tells you the price range is tightening—maybe the stock is consolidating after a big move. You check your other indicators, see a volume spike, and spot a breakout above resistance. Boom! You catch the next big trend, all because this indicator helped you focus on the right moment.
Tips for Best Results
Try Different Timeframes: Tight ranges on a 15-minute chart might signal short-term moves, while a daily chart could highlight bigger trends.
Adjust for Your Market: For volatile markets like crypto, you might want a higher Tight Range % (e.g., 10.0%). For calmer markets like forex, try a lower setting (e.g., 2.0%).
Combine with Other Tools: Use this alongside trendlines, moving averages, or volume indicators to confirm your setups.
Why I Made This
I created this indicator because I wanted a simple, visual way to spot those critical low-volatility zones without cluttering my chart.

VolumePrice Intensity AnalyzerVolumePrice Intensity Analyzer
The VolumePrice Intensity Analyzer is a Pine Script v6 indicator designed to measure market activity intensity through the trading value (Price * Volume, scaled to millions). It helps traders identify significant volume-price interactions, track trends, and gauge momentum by combining volume analysis with trend-following tools.
Features:
Volume-Based Analysis: Calculates Price * Volume in millions to highlight market activity levels.
Trend Identification: Plots 20-day and 50-day SMAs of the trading value to smooth fluctuations and reveal sustained trends.
Relative Strength: Displays the ratio of daily Price * Volume to the long-term SMA in a separate pane, helping traders assess activity intensity relative to historical averages.
Real-Time Metrics: A table shows the current Price * Volume and its ratio to the long SMA, updated continuously with bold text formatting (v6 feature).
Alerts: Triggers notifications for high trading values (when Price * Volume exceeds 1.5x the long SMA) and SMA crossovers (short SMA crossing above long SMA).
Visual Cues: Uses dynamic bar colors (teal for bullish, gray for bearish) and background highlights to mark significant market activity.
Customizable Inputs: Adjust SMA periods, scaling factor, and alert threshold via the settings panel, with tooltips for clarity (v6 feature).
Originality:
Unlike basic volume indicators, this tool combines Price * Volume with trend analysis (SMAs), relative strength (ratio plot), and actionable alerts. The real-time table and visual highlights provide a unique, at-a-glance view of market intensity, making it a valuable addition for volume and trend-focused traders.
Calculations:
Trading Value (P*V): (Close * Volume) * Scale Factor (default scale factor of 1e-6 converts to millions).
SMAs: 20-day and 50-day Simple Moving Averages of the trading value to identify short- and long-term trends.
Ratio: Daily Price * Volume divided by the 50-day SMA, plotted in a separate pane to show relative activity strength.
Bar Colors: Teal (RGB: 0, 132, 141) for bullish bars (close > open or close > previous close), gray for bearish or neutral bars.
Background Highlight: Light yellow (hex: #ffcb3b, 81% transparency) when Price * Volume exceeds the long SMA by the alert threshold.
Plotted Elements:
Short SMA P*V (M): Red line, 20-day SMA of Price*Volume in millions.
Long SMA P*V (M): Blue line, 50-day SMA of Price*Volume in millions.
Today P*V (M): Columns, daily Price*Volume in millions (teal/gray based on price action).
Daily V*P/Longer Term Average: Purple line in a separate pane, ratio of daily Price * Volume to the 50-day SMA.
Usage:
Spot High Activity: Look for Price * Volume columns exceeding the SMAs or spikes in the ratio plot to identify significant market moves.
Confirm Trends: Use SMA crossovers (e.g., short SMA crossing above long SMA) as bullish trend signals, or vice versa for bearish trends.
Monitor Intensity: The table provides real-time Price * Volume and ratio values, while background highlights signal high activity periods.
Versatility: Suitable for stocks, forex, crypto, or any market with volume data, across various timeframes.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart.
Adjust inputs (SMA periods, scale factor, alert threshold) via the settings panel to match your trading style.
Watch for alerts, check the table for real-time metrics, and observe the ratio plot for relative strength signals.
Use the background highlights and bar colors to quickly spot significant market activity and price action.
This indicator leverages Pine Script v6 features like lazy evaluation for performance and advanced text formatting for better visuals, making it a powerful tool for traders focusing on volume, trends, and momentum.
Delta VolDelta Volume BTC - Multi Pair
Description The Delta Volume BTC - Multi Pair indicator visualizes the balance between buying and selling volume across multiple Bitcoin exchanges. By analyzing price action within each bar, it provides insight into underlying market pressure that traditional volume indicators miss. This indicator allows traders to:
Compare volume flow across Coinbase, Binance, and Binance Perpetual markets
Identify divergences between exchanges that may signal market shifts
Detect accumulation or distribution patterns through volume imbalances
View exchanges individually or in aggregate for comprehensive analysis
Calculation Methods The indicator offers three volume delta calculation methods:
VWAP Based (default):
price_range = high - low
buy_percent = (close - low) / price_range
sell_percent = (high - close) / price_range
delta = volume * (buy_percent - sell_percent)
This method distributes volume based on where price closed within the bar's range, providing a nuanced view of buying/selling pressure.
Tick Based :
delta = volume * sign(hlc3 - previous_hlc3)
This approach assigns volume based on the direction of typical price movement between bars, capturing momentum between periods.
Simple :
delta = close > open ? volume : close < open ? -volume : 0
A straightforward method that assigns positive volume to up bars and negative volume to down bars.
When Aggregate Mode is enabled, the indicator sums the volume deltas from all selected exchanges:
aggregate_delta = coinbase_delta + binance_delta + binance_perp_delta

The Bubbles Volume indicator provides a unique and intuitive way to visualize trading volume directly on the price chart. This approach allows traders to quickly identify areas of significant trading activity and potential price levels of interest without the need for a separate volume sub-chart.
This tool can be particularly useful for traders focusing on volume analysis, breakout strategies, or those looking to confirm price action with volume. The visual nature of the bubbles makes it easy to spot volume patterns and anomalies at a glance, potentially leading to faster and more informed trading decisions.
As with all technical indicators, it's recommended to use the Bubbles Volume indicator in conjunction with other forms of analysis and within the context of a well-defined trading strategy. While this indicator provides valuable volume insights, it should be considered alongside other factors such as overall market trends, price patterns, and fundamental analysis when making trading decisions.
Volume Delta Candles [LuxAlgo]Volume Delta Candles provides insights about Intrabar trading activity in an easy-to-interpret manner. Lower timeframe or real-time data is used for displaying Volume Delta percentage against the total volume as a coloured bar part.
The script also highlights the intrabar price with the maximum trading activity, as well as complementary information.
🔶 USAGE
The tool focuses on intrabar volume to provide more information about the trading activity associated with a candle, without having to use an external volume indicator.
Each indicator components is further explained below:
🔹 Volume Delta
The volume delta is obtained by the difference between buy volume and sell volume, where buy volume is the volume associated with a bullish intrabar candle, and sell volume with a bearish intrabar candle.
Positive volume delta is displayed with a green candle area, while negative delta is displayed with a red candle area.
🔹 Bar Coloring
The script displays VD as a percentage of the whole, or from the candle half, depending on the setting ' Display '.
Bars can be coloured as follows:
Full (100%) when Display is set at ' Full Bar '
Half (50% or 100% of half a bar) when Display is set at ' Half Bar '
A negative VD (more bearish than bullish volume) will fill the bar from the top (or centre) of the bar towards the bottom, and a positive VD will fill a bar from the bottom (or centre) of the bar towards the top.
A negative VD on a green candle will show a red-coloured VD against a green-bordered candle. On the other hand, a positive VD on a red candle will show a green-coloured VD against a red-bordered candle.
Colours for VD sentiment opposite to the candle sentiment can be set differently if desired.
🔹 Highest Volume Price Level
The script displays a white (black on light mode) line highlighting the intrabar price level with the highest volume.
When ' Show Previous Max Volume Price ' is checked, a white (black on light mode) dot is displayed 1 bar to the right.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Tick/LTF data
The above example used Lower TimeFrame (LTF) data.
The following example uses real-time tick data ( Settings -> Data From )
Both options, LTF or tick data, will show a vertical dotted line where the data starts.
🔹 LTF settings
When ' Data from ' LTF is chosen and ' Auto ' enabled, the LTF will be the nearest possible x times smaller TF than the current TF. When 'Premium' is disabled, the minimum TF will always be 1 minute to ensure TradingView plans lower than Premium don't get an error.
Examples with current Daily TF (when Premium is enabled):
500 : 3 minute LTF
1500 (default): 1 minute LTF
5000: 30 seconds LTF (1 minute if Premium is disabled)
🔹 Notes
Different LTFs give different data, which means different results; this doesn't mean it isn't correct; they are just different data sets.
(LTF is displayed at the top right corner)
To ensure maximum visibility of values, we recommend using Bars from the Bar's style menu.
🔶 SETTINGS
Data from: Lower TimeFrame or real-time Tick data
Resolution: LTF setting

Time Relative Volume Oscillator | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
The relative volume indicator aims to improve upon the default existing relative volume indicator by comparing volumes between previous trading sessions rather than previous candles. As such, it works best on lower time frames as there is more data to compare with. The purpose of the indicator is to show how the current bar’s volume compares to the volume at the same time on previous trading days.
There exists a couple different modes and combinations that each provide a different perspective on the trading volume.
Oscillator mode
Oscillator mode starts with the same relative volume calculation, but adds two EMAs of different lengths that diverge and converge. Like the MACD, it plots the difference as a histogram. This functions as an easy way to view when relative volume is increasing or decreasing.
How to use:
The oscillator oscillates between -1 and 1. It moves along with volume direction, so this mode can be used to view the current volume direction in a lagging fashion. In oscillating markets, this indicator can give an idea of how buy/sell volume is moving and where it currently stands. Small arrows mark where reversals are predicted, when the histogram crosses over 0. The biggest pitfall of this mode is that, in a straight trending market, the two EMAs converge and it gives a false reversal signal.
Delta mode
Delta volume mode is a step up from the buy/sell volume mode. It separates both sides into the top and bottom, while also displaying the actual volume behind it in a semi transparent overlay. The best feature, however, is the delta oscillator. This oscillator fluctuates depending on how buy/sell volume is changing and plots bullish/bearish labels when the dominant side (bullish/bearish) changes. The signals, while a bit common, can sometimes dictate large direction changes, started by a dominant volume switch.
On top of different display modes, there is also one more volume mode: buy/sell volume. Instead of only showing the total volume and relative volume, it calculates and separates buying and selling volume.
This volume mode displays differently in all three viewing modes, but the basic principle is the same. It adds a vital piece of information to the chart without adding clutter. The calculation for buy/sell volume uses the candle wicks and body to compare bullish and bearish movement.
Classic mode
Classic mode takes the default volume indicator and improves upon it by also displaying the relative volume on top of the actual volume. Relative volume is calculated similarly between the three display modes: simply by comparing the current bar’s volume to the volume at the same time during previous trading days. Classic mode displays this “relative volume” as well as a simple EMA over top of the actual trading volume.
Originality
The script improves upon the existing relative volume indicator by using previous trading days rather than previous candles to generate the relative volume. On top of that, the calculation methods are unique, using different formulas like variations of the sigmoid function to smooth noise. The main issue this script aims to fix is that towards the start or end of the day relative volume indicators all see spikes as volume grows into close. The new relative volume calculations fix this problem and show what the “true” relative volume is because they compare the current bar to the “same” bar on previous trading sessions.
Volume Profile [TFO]This indicator generates Volume Profiles from which to display insights about recent Volume Points of Control and High Volume Nodes. Volume Profile is a way to view trading volume by the price where trades have occurred, rather than the time when they occur (as seen by traditional Volume indicators).
By selecting a Resolution Timeframe (1m in this example), we can aggregate the volume at different prices to build a Volume Profile for a specified Profile Timeframe (1D in this example). In this indicator, we make the simple assumption that a given candle's volume is distributed evenly across all points. Realistically, this is seldom the case, but it gives us a starting point to easily estimate the volume at a given price, in turn helping us to build our profiles in a trivial way.
If we do this for all Resolution Timeframe candles within a Profile Timeframe (all 1m candles in a single 1D candle, in this example), then we can successfully aggregate this data and build a full Volume Profile. And thankfully, Pine Script's new polyline feature ultimately allow us to keep more Volume Profiles on our charts. Before polylines, we would have to consider using lines or boxes to represent the individual levels within a given profile, and each script currently has a cap of 500 lines and boxes, respectively. However, one single polyline can be used to draw the complex shape of an entire profile, and we may show up to 100 polylines in a given script. This helps us keep a lot more data on our charts!
Compared to TradingView's Session Volume Profile indicator (blue/yellow), we can see that our indicator (grey) is nearly identical, which verifies that our assumption of a uniform volume distribution is enough to roughly estimate a given Volume Profile. Note in this example the Row Size was set to 200, meaning that 200 levels are used to approximate profiles from each session's high to its low.
Show VPOC will show the volume point of control of each profile, which represents the price level where the largest amount of volume was traded for a given profile. This is shown with the red lines in the following chart.
Extend Last N VPOCs will look for the most recent, user-defined number of VPOCs (not including the current session's VPOC that's still developing) and extend them to the right of the chart as points of reference. The Show Labels Above option will annotate each VPOC with its respective date above a specified timeframe. This way, if one was using Volume Profiles on intraday timeframes, there wouldn't need to be several date strings all showing the same day.
Show Previous HVNs will show high volume nodes from the previous session. The HVN Strength setting is similar to a "pivot strength" that I use in a lot of my scripts - essentially, HVNs are validated by treating them as local highs. With a HVN Strength of 10 for example, if a given level contains more volume than the 10 levels above and below it, then it is validated as a HVN.
For a cleaner look and feel, HVNs can instead be shown as levels (lines) instead of areas (boxes). With levels enabled, solid lines denote the previous session's VPOC, and dotted lines represent all other HVNs. With areas enabled instead, the tops and bottoms will extend above/below the HVN level until a point with greater volume is discovered (marking the "end" of the node).
This indicator can be computationally intensive and may crash from taking too long to execute. In these cases, it's best to disable unused features, decrease the number of Rows, and/or simply reload the chart until it populates.
Saty Volume StackBreaks volume into buy and sell volume and stacks them based on which side has higher volume.
Dynamic Buy / Sell Stack
Unlike other buy/sell volume indicators, which statically display this information (typically green over red), this indicator dynamically stacks the higher volume side on top. For example, green over red indicates more buy-side volume, red over green indicators more sell-side volume.
Current Candle Volume Buy/Sell %
A label shows the % buy vs sell volume for the current candle in real-time. This label is also dynamic with the left position being higher volume.
How the Buy/Sell Volume is Calculated
Buy/Sell % is calculated based on price.
Buy % is calculated using the distance between the low of the candle to the closing value of the candle and dividing that by the total range of the candle high to low.
Sell % is calculated using the distance between the high of the candle to the closing value of the candle and dividing that by the total range of the candle high to low.
Please note this is a proxy metric and while it is incredibly useful, it is not going to match up exactly with actual buy/sell volume that can be found on tape.
True VolumeThis indicator is designed to provide in-depth analysis of volume data from multiple sources and distinguish highly liquid candles by measuring the density of the volume. By focusing on the density and concentration of volume, rather than just the volume itself, it offers a more nuanced view of the market. This can be particularly beneficial in markets like cryptocurrencies, where understanding the role of market makers versus retail traders is crucial for strategic trading.
This is how it works:
Multiple Asset Integration:
Unlike standard volume indicators, True Volume allows the inclusion of up to four different assets (or the same asset from various exchanges) into its volume calculations. This feature provides a broader and more accurate total volume representation, essential in markets like cryptocurrencies where volume is dispersed across multiple exchanges.
Adjustable Time Anchors:
It offers various time anchor options, allowing traders to analyze volume data over different time periods or a specific amount of lookback candles. This flexibility helps in understanding volume trends over both short and long-term time frames.
Volume Density Analysis:
The core of this indicator is the innovative concept of Volume Density. It's calculated using a sigmoid function that normalizes the volume-to-price movement ratio in a unique way without needing a max cap or having the density column spike off the chart. This method helps in distinguishing between normal volume fluctuations and those that are unusually dense for the given price movement. This distinction is key in identifying potential market maker activities.
The Visuals:
The Volume Density is displayed in a unique way without compromising the original volume bars or cap the density. Infinite density can essentially be represented without having an infinitely large bar or caping out the density data. There's also two different color themes, optional bar color, and an option to flip the density bars up-side down for a different representation. Each of the original volume sources can be displayed separately as well. All colors as customizable as well for your own preference.
Price Volume Trend (PVT):
Included in this indicator is also the Price Volume Trend, which cumulatively measures the density delta, offering insights into the longer-term momentum of the market.
How do I trade it?
This indicator aims to give you insight into 'the other side of the trade', the Market Makers. When you buy, they provide liquidity by selling to you. That drives the Volume Density up.
Consider whether the market maker is currently long or short and might need to cover their position by wicking price back, or "adjust inventory". Especially towards the end of a market session.
Consider dense candles during market gaps or weekends to be market manipulation moves.
The density also goes up when stop losses are hit. If price makes a higher high or lower low, high density could indicate a liquidation event.
Directional Volume EStimate from Price Action (RedK D_VESPA)The "Directional Volume EStimate from Price Action (RedK D_VESPA)" is another weapon for the VPA (Volume Price Analysis) enthusiasts and traders who like to include volume-based insights & signals to their trading. The basic concept is to estimate the sell and buy split of the traded volume by extrapolating the price action represented by the shape of the associated price bar. We then create and plot an average of these "estimated buy & sell volumes" - the estimated average Net Volume is the balance between these 2 averages.
D_VESPA uses clear visualizations to represent the outcomes in a less distracting and more actionable way.
How does D_VESPA work?
-------------------------------------
The key assumption is that when price moves up, this is caused by "buy" volume (or increasing demand), and when the price moves down, this is due to "selling" volume (or increasing supply). Important to note that we are making our Buy/sell volume estimates here based on the shape of the price bar, and not looking into lower time frame volume data - This is a different approach and is still aligned to the key concepts of VPA.
Originally this work started as an improvement to my Supply/Demand Volume Viewer (V.Viewer) , I ended up re-writing the whole thing after some more research and work on VPA, to improve the estimation, visualization and usability / tradability.
Think of D_VESPA as the "Pro" version of V.Viewer -- and please go back and review the details of V.Viewer as the root concepts are the same so I won't repeat them here (as it comes to exploring Balance Zone and finding Price Convergence/Divergence)
Main Features of D_VESPA
--------------------------------------
- Update Supply/Demand calculation to include 2-bar gaps (improved algo)
- Add multiple options for the moving average (MA type) for the calculation - my preference is to use WMA
- Add option to show Net Volume as 3-color bars
- Visual simplification and improvements to be less distracting & more actionable
- added options to display/hide main visuals while maintaining the status line consistency (Avg Supply, Avg Demand, Avg Net)
- add alerts for NetVol moving into Buy (crosses 0 up) or Sell (crosses 0 down) modes - or swing from one mode to the other
(there are actually 2 sets of alerts, one set for the main NetVol plot, and the other for the secondary TF NetVol - give user more options on how to utilize D_VESPA)
Quick techie piece, how does the estimated buy/sell volume algo work ?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* per our assumption, buy volume is associated with price up-moves, sell volume is associated with price down-moves
* so each of the bulls and bears will get the equivalent of the top & bottom wicks,
* for up bars, bulls get the value of the "body", else the bears get the "body"
* open gaps are allocated to bulls or bears depending on the gap direction
The below sketch explains how D_VESPA estimates the Buy/Sell Volume split based on the bar shape (including gap) - the example shows a bullish bar with an opening gap up - but the concept is the same for a down-bar or a down-gap.
I kept both the "Volume Weighted" and "2-bar Gap Impact" as options in the indicator settings - these 2 options should be always kept selected. They are there for those who would like to experiment with the difference these changes have on the buy/sell estimation. The indicator will handle cases where there is no volume data for the selected symbol, and in that case, it will simply reflect Average Estimated Bull/Bear ratio of the price bar
The Secondary TF Est Average Net Volume:
---------------------------------------------------------
I added the ability to plot the Estimate Average Net Volume for a secondary timeframe - options 1W, 1D, 1H, or Same as Chart.
- this feature provides traders the confidence to trade the lower timeframes in the same direction as the prevailing "market mode"
- this also adds more MTF support beyond the existing TradingView's built-in MTF support capability - experiment with various settings between exposing the indicator's secondary TF plot, and changing the TF option in the indicator settings.
Note on the secondary TF NetVol plot:
- the secondary TF needs to be set to same as or higher TF than the chart's TF - if not, a warning sign would show and the plot will not be enabled. for example, a day trader may set the secondary TF to 1Hr or 1Day, while looking at 5min or 15min chart. A swing/trend trader who frequently uses the daily chart may set the secondary TF to weekly, and so on..
- the secondary TF NetVol plot is hidden by default and needs to be exposed thru the indicator settings.
the below chart shows D_VESPA on a the same (daily) chart, but with secondary TF plot for the weekly TF enabled
Final Thoughts
-------------------
* RedK D_VESPA is a volume indicator, that estimates buy/sell and net volume averages based on the price action reflected by the shape of the price bars - this can provide more insight on volume compared to the classic volume/VolAverage indicator and assist traders in exploring the market mode (buyers/sellers - bullish/bearish) and align trades to it.
* Because D_VESPA is a volume indicator, it can't be used alone to generate a trading signal - and needs to be combined with other indicators that analysis price value (range), momentum and trend. I recommend to at least combine D_VESPA with a variant of MACD and RSI to get a full view of the price action relative to the prevailing market and the broader trend.
* I found it very useful to take note and "read" how the Est Buy vs Est Sell lines move .. they sort of "tell a story" - experiment with this on your various chart and note the levels of estimate avg demand vs estimate avg supply that this indicator exposes for some very valuable insight about how the chart action is progressing. Please feel free to share feedback below.
Average Traded MoneyAs its name indicates, this indicator shows us the average amount of money traded in a specific asset.
It is calculated by multiplying the volume by the price (calculated on hl2) on each trading day and from there calculate a moving average of 25 periods.
The indicator only shows this 25 period moving average .
What is it for?
Well, it helps us to find out if there are variations in the amount of money traded and therefore identify areas of accumulation and distribution and thus be able to anticipate changes in trend and enter together with the large funds and thus obtain benefits.
It is something very simple to calculate but strangely no one had published it in TradingView yet. I think it is very useful and shows us information that is hidden in the volatility of a simple volume indicator. The simple volume indicator only shows us the number of shares traded but not the money that has been traded, that's why my indicator can be helpful. By averaging this data, we smooth the highs and lows of money traded and we get a cleaner graphic that gives us a better interpretation of what is happening with the negotiation of the asset.
Outliers Detector with N-Sigma Confidence Intervals (TG fork)Display outliers in either value change, volume or volume change that significantly deviate from the past.
This uses the standard deviation calculation and the n-sigmas statistical rule of significance, with 2-sigma (a value of 2) signifying that the observed value is stronger than 95% of past values, and 3-sigma 98.5% of past values, and so on for higher sigma values.
Outliers in price action or in volume can indicate a strong support for the move, and hence potentially more moves in the same direction in the future. Inversely, an insignificant move is less likely to be supported. And of course the stronger, the more support.
This indicator also doubles as a standard volume indicator if volume is selected as the source, but with the option of highlighting outliers.
Bars below significance can be uncolored (gray) to unclutter the visuals.
Differently to almost all other similar indicators, the background highlighting is dynamical, so that all values will be highlighted differently, not just 2-sigma or 3-sigma, but also 4-sigma, 5-sigma, etc, with a different value of transparency.
The dynamical transparency value can be calculated in two ways: either statically proportionally to the n-sigma but capped at 10-sigma, or either as a ratio relative to the highest observed sigma value over the defined lookback period (default: 300).
If you like this indicator, which is an extension of previously published indicators, please give some love to the original authors:
* tvjvzl :
* vnhilton :
This extension, authored by Tartigradia, extends tvjvzl's indi, implements vnhilton's idea of highlighting the background, and go further by adding dynamical background highlighting for any value of sigma, add support for volume and volume change (VolumeDiff) as inputs, add option to uncolor insignificant bars, allow plotting in both directions and more.
