Delta ZigZag [LuxAlgo]The Delta ZigZag indicator is focused on volume analysis during the development of ZigZag lines. Volume data can be retrieved from a Lower timeframe (LTF) or real-time Tick data.
Our Delta ZigZag publication can be helpful in detecting indications of a trend reversal or potential weakening/strengthening of the trend.
This indicator by its very nature backpaints, meaning that the displayed components are offset in the past.
🔶 USAGE
The ZigZag line is formed by connecting Swings , which can be set by adjusting the Left and Right settings.
Left is the number of bars for evaluation at the left of the evaluated point.
Right is the number of bars for evaluation at the right of the evaluated point.
A valid Swing is a value higher or lower than the bars at the left/right .
A higher Left or Right set number will generally create broader ZigZag ( ZZ ) lines, while the drawing of the ZZ line will be delayed (especially when Right is set higher). On the other hand, when Right is set at 0, ZZ line are drawn quickly. However, this results in a hyperactive switching of the ZZ direction.
To ensure maximum visibility of values, we recommend using " Bars " from the " Bar's style " menu.
🔹 Volume examination
The script provides two options for Volume examination :
Examination per ZigZag line
Examination per bar
Bullish Volume is volume associated with a green bar ( close > open )
Bearish Volume is volume associated with a red bar ( close < open )
Neutral Volume (volume on a " close == open" bar) is not included in this publication.
🔹 Examination per ZigZag line
As long as the price moves in the same direction, the present ZZ line will continue. When the direction of the price changes, the bull/bear volume of the previous ZZ line is evaluated and drawn on the chart.
The ZZ line is divided into two parts: a bullish green line and a bearish red line.
The intercept of these two lines will depend on the ratio of bullish/bearish volume
This ratio is displayed at the intercept as % bullish volume (Settings -> Show % Bullish Volume)
* Note that we cannot draw between 2 bars. Therefore, if a ZZ line is only 1 bar long, the intercept will be at one of those 2 bars and not in between. The percentage can be helpful in interpreting bull/bear volume.
In the example above (2 most right labels), you can see that an overlap of 2 labels is prevented, ensuring the ability to evaluate the bullish % volume of the ZZ line .
The percentage will be colored green when more than 50%, red otherwise. The color will fade when the direction is contradictory; for example, 40% when the ZZ line goes up or 70% when the ZZ line falls.
More details can be visualized by enabling " Show " and choosing 1 of 3 options:
Average Volume Delta/bar
Average Volume/bar
Normalised Volume Delta
For both 'averages', the sum of " Volume "/" Volume Delta " of every bar on the ZZ line is divided by the number of bars (per ZZ line ).
The " Normalised Volume Delta " is calculated by dividing the sum of " Delta Volume " by the sum of " Volume " (neutral volume not included), which is displayed as a percentage.
All three options will display a label at the last point of the ZZ line and be coloured similarly: green when the ratio bullish/bearish volume of the ZZ line is bullish and red otherwise. Here, the colour also fades when it is bullish, but the ZZ line falls or when it is bearish with a rising ZZ line .
A tooltip at each label hints at the chosen option.
You can pick one of the options or combine them together.
🔹 Examination per bar
Besides information about what's happening during the ZZ line , information per bar can be visualized by enabling " Show Details " in Settings .
Split Volume per bar : show the sum of bullish (upV) and bearish (dnV) volume per bar
Volume (bar) : Total Volume per bar (bullish + bearish volume, neutral volume not included)
Δ Volume (bar) : Show Delta Volume (bullish - bearish volume)
🔹 Using Lower Timeframe Data
The ZigZag lines using LTF data are colored brighter. Also note the vertical line where the LTF data starts and the gap between ZZ lines with LTF data and without.
When " LTF " is chosen for the " Data from: " option in Settings , data is retrieved from Lower Timeframe bars (default 1 minute). When the LTF setting is higher than the current chart timeframe, the LTF period will automatically be adjusted to the current timeframe to prevent errors.
As there is a 100K limit to the number of LTF intrabars that can be analyzed by a script, this implies the higher the difference between LTF and current TF; the fewer ZZ lines will be seen.
🔹 Using real-time tick data
The principles are mostly the same as those of LTF data. However, in contrast with LTF data, where you already have LTF ZZ lines when loading the script, real-time tick data-based ZZ lines will only start after loading the chart.
Changing the settings of a ticker will reset everything. However, returning to the same settings/ticker would show the cached data again.
Here, you can see that changing settings reset everything, but returning after 2 minutes to the initial settings shows the cached data. Don't expect it to be cached for hours or days, though.
🔶 DETAILS
The timeframe used for LTF data should always be the same or lower than the current TF; otherwise, an error occurs. This snippet prevents the error and adjusts the LTF to the current TF when LTF is too high:
res = input.timeframe('1')
res := timeframe.from_seconds( math.min( timeframe.in_seconds(timeframe.period), timeframe.in_seconds(res) ) )
🔶 SETTINGS
Data from: LTF (Lower TimeFrame) or Ticks (Real-time ticks)
Res: Lower TimeFrame (only applicable when choosing LTF )
Option: choose " high/low " or " close " for Swing detection
🔹 ZigZag
Left: Lookback period for Swings
Right: Confirmation period after potential Swing
🔹 ZigZag Delta
Show % Bullish Volume : % bullish volume against total volume during the ZZ line
Show:

Cumulative Delta Volume WaveIntroducing an Enhanced Version of the CDV by LonesomeTheBlue
For the original version and description check this link:
What Makes This Version Different than the original?
This enhanced version of the CDV indicator incorporates advanced signal processing techniques to bring new depth to market analysis.
Standard Deviation Bands and EMAs: These additions to the CDV offer a visual representation of significant market movements—highlighting major pumps and dumps, as well as identifying potential support and resistance levels.
Color-Coded Insights: The standard deviation bands utilize color coding based on signal processing principles. This feature becomes increasingly useful the more you zoom out, making it easier to observe and interpret market waves.
Market Maker Activity: By examining fluctuations within the standard deviation bands, traders can gauge when Market Makers are actively maneuvering to establish their long and short positions, often at the expense of retail traders.
EMA Support and Resistance: The embedded Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. Analyzing these can help traders determine the continuing strength of a market move, whether bullish or bearish.
Visual Guide to the Basics
For a clearer understanding of what this enhanced indicator can show, please refer to the image below:
And in addition to all the above one can detect relevant W and M structures way easier with this indicator ;)
Order Chain [Kioseff Trading]Hello!
This indicator "Order Chain" uses live tick data (varip) to retrieve live tick volume.
This indicator must be used on a live market with volume data
Features
Live Tick Volume
Live Tick Volume Delta
Orders are appended to boxes, whose width and height are scaled proportional to the size of the order.
CVD recorded at relevant tick levels
Order chain spans up to 450 ticks (might include aggregates)
The image above shows key features for the indicator!
The image above explains line and color placements.
The image above shows the indicator in action for a live market!
How It Works
The indicator records the difference in volume from "now" and the previous tick. Predicated on whether the "now" price is greater than or less than price one tick prior, the difference in volume is recorded as "buy" or "sell" volume.
This filled order (or aggregates) is colored in congruence with price direction. The filled order is subsequently appended to its relevant tick level and added (buy order) or subtracted (sell order) from the CVD value at the identified tick level.
Of course, thank you to @PineCoders and @RicardoSantos for their awesome libraries :D
Thank you!
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)█ OVERVIEW
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is a volume-based trading indicator that provides a visual representation of market buying and selling pressure by calculating the difference in traded volumes between the two sides. It uses intrabar information to obtain more precise volume delta information than methods using only the chart's timeframe.
Volume delta is the net difference between Buy Volume and Sell Volume. Positive volume delta indicates that buy volume is more than sell volume, and opposite. So Cumulative Volume Delta (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.
I found simple and fast solution how to calculate CVD, so made plain and concise code, here is CVD function :
cvd(_c, _o, _v) =>
var tcvd = 0.0, delta = 0.0
posV = 0.0, negV = 0.0
totUV = 0.0, totDV = 0.0
switch
_c > _o => posV += _v
_c < _o => negV -= _v
_c > nz(_c ) => posV += _v
_c < nz(_c ) => negV -= _v
nz(posV ) > 0 => posV += _v
nz(negV ) < 0 => negV -= _v
totUV += posV
totDV += negV
delta := totUV + totDV
cvd = tcvd + delta
tcvd += delta
cvd
where _c, _o, _v are close, open and volume of intrabar much lower timeframe.
Indicator uses intrabar information to obtain more precise volume delta information than methods using only the chart's timeframe.
Intrabar precision calculation depends on the chart's timeframe:
CVD is good to use together with open interest, volume and price change.
For example if CVD is rising and price makes good move up in short period and volume is rising and open interest makes good move up in short period and before was flat market it is show big chance to pump.
Asset capital flows - multi-timeframeIndicator for use on the any timeframe to show net capital flows into an asset of your choosing, to allow the user to track potential buy and selling pressure.
Net volume is derived from lower timeframe data (5 minute chart by default for daily timeframe) and multiplied by the average price for the same LTF period (defined by the mean of the high, low + close values). This gives the net capital inflow or outflow for the asset per bar. The cumulative sum of all previous bars is also calculated each period/day and available to be plotted as a line chart.
This might be preferred to other similar indicators as it uses low time frame bars to calculate the up/down volumes and price, thus accuracy is improved.
It should be borne in mind that the values of capital flows displayed are specific to the asset and the volume/price feed origin (ie the listed exchange used), and thus correlated with the total underlying flows, but there are other external factors influencing the volume/price data feed beyond the buy/sell volume of the specified exchange (such as spot and futures trading on other locations/exchanges)
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.
Advanced VolumeThe "Advanced Volume" indicator is a versatile tool designed for traders who need a detailed analysis of market volume dynamics. It provides three unique modes of volume analysis: Simple, Complex, and Analytics, each offering distinct insights for various trading styles.
Key Features:
Modes of Operation:
Simple Mode: Displays traditional volume data for a quick overview of market activity.
Complex Mode: Reveals the differential volume between buyers and sellers in a lower time frame. This mode features two average lines - one showing the current average volume level and another depicting the past average, based on the chosen length. These lines provide a comparative view of current and historical market dynamics.
Analytics Mode: Combines buyers' and sellers' volume in a lower time frame with their average. The average line in this mode changes color based on the dominant volume: it turns blue (default color for positive volume) if the average buy volume is higher, and switches to the sell volume color if the average sell volume is predominant.
Customizable Settings:
Average Length: Allows you to adjust the length for moving average calculations.
Definition: Select from 'Maximum', 'High', or 'Medium' for time frame granularity.
Visual Preferences: Customize the width and colors of the volume bars and average lines to suit your visual preference.
Dynamic Calculations and Plots:
Differentiates between up-volume and down-volume for nuanced market sentiment analysis.
Includes various plots such as volume bars, moving averages, and dynamic lines for comprehensive analysis.
Usage Tips:
Utilize 'Simple Mode' for a quick market overview.
Engage 'Complex Mode' to assess buying vs. selling pressures and compare current volume trends against historical averages.
Apply 'Analytics Mode' for an in-depth analysis of volume trends, with color-coded average lines indicating dominant market forces.
Composite Bull-Bear Dominance IndexNote: CREDITS: This is based on the Up Down Volume Indicator (published in Trading View) and Elder Ray Index (Bull Bear Power).
The Composite Bull Bear Dominance Index (CBBDI) is a indicator that combines up down volume analysis with Bull and Bear Power to provide a comprehensive view of market dynamics. It calculates Z-scores for up down volume delta and bull bear power measures, averages them, and then smoothes the result using Weighted Moving Average (WMA) for Bull and Bear Power and Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) for Up and Down Volume Delta. The advantages include responsiveness to short-term trends, noise reduction through weighting, incorporation of volume information, and the ability to identify significant changes in buying and selling pressure. The indicator aims to offer clear signals for traders seeking insights into overall market dominance and indicate if the bulls or the bears have the upper hand.
Volume Analysis (Up/Down Volume Delta):
Up/Down Volume Delta reflects the net difference between buying and selling volume, providing insights into the prevailing market sentiment.
Positive Delta: Indicates potential bullish dominance due to higher buying volume.
Negative Delta: Suggests potential bearish dominance as selling volume surpasses buying volume.
Price Analysis (Bull and Bear Power):
Bull and Bear Power measure the strength of buying and selling forces based on price movements and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the closing price.
Positive Bull Power: Reflects bullish dominance, indicating potential upward momentum.
Positive Bear Power: Suggests bearish dominance, indicating potential downward momentum.
Composite Bull Bear Dominance Index (CBBDI):
CBBDI combines the standardized Z-scores of Up/Down Volume Delta and Bull Bear Power, providing an average measure of both volume and price-related dominance.
Positive CBBDI: Indicates an overall bullish dominance in both volume and price dynamics.
Negative CBBDI: Suggests an overall bearish dominance in both volume and price dynamics.
Smoothing Techniques:
The use of Weighted Moving Average (WMA) for smoothing Bull and Bear Power Z-scores, and Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) for smoothing Up/Down Volume Delta, reduces noise and provides a clearer trend signal.
Smoothing helps filter out short-term fluctuations and emphasizes more significant trends in both volume and price movements.
Color Coding:
CBBDI values are color-coded based on their direction, visually representing the prevailing market sentiment.
Green Colors: Positive values indicate potential bullish dominance.
Red Colors: Negative values suggest potential bearish dominance.

Trended CVD [Mxwll]Hey!
This indicator "Trended CVD" categorizes price movement by trend (using zig zag) and calculates cumulative volume delta for the entirety of the price move.
Features
CVD calculated for the trend
CVD divergences are distinguished (uptrend and falling CVD / downtrend and rising CVD)
CVD output normalized to scale with chart, and is plotted alongside the trend
Can be used for trend confirmation (CVD trend correlating with price trend)
All regular zig-zag features available
What constitutes a trend is customizable. Can locate small, medium, large price trends with detailed user-input settings.
How-To Use Trended CVD
The image above shows one of two primary uses for the indicator.
In the left-half of the image, price is downtrending simultaneously with CVD; thereby, CVD is confirming the downtrend.
The right-half of the image shows price uptrending simultaneously with CVD; CVD is confirming the uptrend.
This information can be used to classify the "strength" of the price move, and decide to trade with it or against it.
The image above shows the second primary use for the indicator.
A slight price decrease transpires while CVD increases - CVD diverging upwards from the price trend.
This information can be used to classify the strength of the downtrend, and decide to trade against it, or abstain from trading with it.
The image above shows, subsequent to divergence, price failed to sustain "meaningful" downwards movement.
Labels oriented at the final pivot of a trend show the cumulative volume delta for the entirety of the price move (distinguishable by the superimposed zig zag line).
That's really it! A more complex concept integrated with a simple output.
Thank you!
Split VolumeThe Split Volume indicator displays 'Upwards' and 'Downwards' volume with an additional method for distributing 'split' candle volume.
A 'split' candle is a candle whose direction is...'Split'...since the open and close are equal. (Ex. Doji)
Upwards and Downwards Volume is tracked by comparing the Open and Closes of the Lower Timeframes.
If the Close is Greater-than the Open, we track the Volume as 'Upwards' Volume.
If the Close is Less-than the Open, we track the Volume as 'Downwards' Volume.
If the Close and Open are Equal, we assume that the Volume is an even split 50/50, and track it as such.
The indicator pulls data from lower timeframes to achieve more granular Open,Close,& Volume Data
Specifically:
<5m Timeframe: 1 Second LTF
<60m Timeframe: 5 Second LTF
<1D Timeframe: 1 Minute LTF
>1D Timeframe: 60m LTF
We have also included some nice-to-have features
50% Volume Line: This line splits each columns in half, this is used as quick reference to see exactly which side the volume is on.
High Volume Candle Identification: We are detecting bars with high relative volume and coloring them on the upper chart for use as important zones.
Status Line Readouts: The Status line for this indicator is formatted for simple reading. It Reads(Left-to-Right):Total Volume, Downwards Volume, 50% Value, Upwards Volume
Volume Heatmap 2024 | NXT2017 Christmas EditionHi big players around the world,
I wish you a merry christmas time.
Today I have a nice present for you: a new volume heatmap indicator for free using!
HISTORY
My first volume heatmap project got a lot of feedback and a big demand. You can find it here:
In this time pinescript version 4 was the newest one and I worked the first time with arrays.
Today we have pinescript version 5 and some new features. This is why I tried again with matrix function and the results are better than I expected.
HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates similar like the volume profile. It looks back and every volume where the close price is on the same row area, the volume will cumulated. How much rows the new chart view is showing, you can choose manually.
The mind behind this is to find high volume levels, where high volume catch the price in a range or get function as support/resistance line.
PICTURES
I hope it helps for your trading. You are welcome to give some comments.
Merry christmas and best regards

Delta Zones Buy/Sell PressureScript Description:
Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure Indicator
Description:
The "Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure" indicator, created by the original author "scarf", is a technical tool that unveils key areas of buying and selling pressure in the market. This indicator utilizes the concept of Delta, calculating differences between open, close, high, and low prices. When these differences exceed a threshold determined by the user-defined standard deviation, areas of intense buying (indicated by green boxes) and selling pressure (indicated by red boxes) on the chart are identified.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates Delta using various combinations of candle prices to determine buying and selling pressure. When Delta surpasses a certain level, indicated by the user-defined standard deviation, visual signals in the form of boxes on the chart are generated. These boxes highlight specific areas where buying or selling pressure is particularly strong, aiding traders in identifying potential entry and exit points in the market.
How to Use:
* When a green box is drawn, it indicates strong buying pressure in the market. This can be interpreted as a signal to consider long positions.
* When a red box is drawn, it indicates strong selling pressure in the market. This can be interpreted as a signal to consider short positions.
* Use these signals in combination with your own analysis and risk management strategies to make informed trading decisions.
Originality:
What makes this indicator original is its unique approach to identifying specific areas of buying and selling pressure. By calculating Delta in multiple ways and utilizing standard deviation as a filter, this indicator provides clear and concise visual signals about market activity. The combination of these features distinguishes it as a valuable tool for traders seeking a better understanding of market behavior. This modification differs from the original by displaying the information on the price chart with horizontal bars, below each delta, instead of an oscillator at the bottom similar to the volume indicator.
Final Recommendations:
Consider Market Trends:
Before making any trading decisions using the Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure Indicator, it is crucial to analyze the prevailing market trends. Assess the overall direction of the market, whether it's trending upward, downward, or moving sideways. Align your trades with the dominant trend to increase the probability of successful outcomes. The indicator's signals can be more reliable when they align with the broader market trend.
Evaluate Macro-Economic Factors:
Additionally, take into account macro-economic factors that could influence price movements. Factors such as economic indicators, geopolitical events, interest rate decisions, and global market sentiments can significantly impact the financial markets. Stay updated with relevant news and economic reports to anticipate potential market shifts. Understanding the broader economic context can help you interpret the indicator's signals within a more informed framework.
Practice Risk Management:
Regardless of the signals provided by the Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure Indicator, always implement effective risk management strategies. This includes setting stop-loss orders, diversifying your portfolio, and only risking a small percentage of your trading capital on each trade. By managing your risk, you can protect your investments and ensure longevity in the market, even during volatile periods.
Continuous Learning and Adaptation:
Financial markets are dynamic and constantly evolving. Continuously educate yourself about new trading strategies, technical analysis tools, and economic developments. Stay open to adapting your trading approach based on changing market conditions. Regularly reviewing your trading strategy and adjusting it according to your experiences and market feedback can significantly enhance your trading performance over the long term.
Seek Professional Advice if Necessary:

Their expertise can provide valuable insights and help you make well-informed decisions, especially in complex or uncertain market environments.
By incorporating these recommendations into your trading approach, you can enhance your decision-making process, mitigate risks, and increase your overall chances of successful trading outcomes. Remember, the key to successful trading lies not only in the tools you use but also in your ability to interpret them within the broader market context.
Volume Delta Trailing Stop [LuxAlgo]The ' Volume Delta Trailing Stop ' indicator uses Lower Time Frame (LTF) volume delta data which can provide potential entries together with a Volume-Delta based Trailing Stop-line .
🔶 USAGE
Our 'Volume Delta Trailing Stop' script can show potential entries/Stop Loss lines
A trigger line needs to be broken before a position is taken, after which a Volume Delta-controlled Trailing Stop-line is created:
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Volume rises when bought or sold
🔹 When the opening price appears on the chart, a buy/sell order has been executed.
If that order is less than the available supply of that particular price, volume will rise, without moving the price.
🔹 When the opening price is the same as the closing price, the volume of that bar can be seen as "neutral volume" (nV); nor "up", nor "down" volume.
Example
A buy order doesn't fill the first available supply in the order book. This price will be the opening price with a certain volume.
When at closing time, price still hasn't moved (the first available supply in the order book isn't filled, or no movement downwards),
the closing price will be equal to the opening price, but with volume. This can be seen as "neutral volume (nV)".
🔹 Delta Volume (ΔV): this is "up volume" minus "down volume"
🔹 Standard volume is colored red when closing price is lower than opening price ( = "down volume").
🔹 Standard volume is colored green when closing price is higher OR equal (nV) than opening price ( = "up volume").
🔹 Neutral Volume
The "Neutral-Volume" is considered "Up-Volume" - setting will dictate whether nV is considered as green 'buy' volume or not.
🔶 EXAMPLE
29 July 10:00 -> 10:05, chart timeframe 5 minutes, open 29311.28, close 29313.89
close > open, so the volume (39.55) is colored green ("up volume").
(The Volume script used in the following examples is the open-source publication Volume Columns w. Alerts (V) from LucF )
Let's zoom to the 1-minute TF:
The same period is now divided into more bars, volume direction (color) is dependable on the difference between open and close.
Counting up and down volume gives a more detailed result, it remains in an upward direction though):
(ΔV = +15.51)
Let's further zoom in to the 1-second TF:
The same period is now divided into even more bars (more possibility for changing direction on each bar)
Here we see several bars that haven't moved in price, but they have volume ("neutral" volume).
(neutral volume is coloured light green here, while up volume is coloured darker green)
When we count all green and red volume bars, the result is quite different:
(ΔV = -0.35)
In total more volume is found when price went downwards, yet price went up in these 5 minutes.
-> This is the heart of our publication, when this divergence occurs, you can see a barcolor changement:
• orange: when price went up, but LTF Volume was mainly in a downward direction.
• blue: when price went down, but LTF Volume was mainly in an upwards direction.
When we split the green "up volume" into "up" and "neutral", the difference is even higher
(here "neutral volume" is colored grey):
(ΔV = -12.76; "up" - "down")
🔶 CONCEPTS
bullishBear = current bar is red but LTF volume is in upward direction -> blue bar
bearishBull = current bar is green but LTF volume is in downward direction -> orange bar
🔹 Potential positioning - forming of Trigger-line
When not in position, the script will wait for a divergence between price and volume direction. When found, a Trigger-line will appear:
• at high when a blue bar appears ( bullishBear ).
• at low when an orange bar appears ( bearishBull ).
Next step is when the Trigger-line is broken by close or high/low (settings: Trigger )
Here, the closing price went under the grey Trigger-line -> bearish position:
🔹 Trailing Stop-line
When the Trigger-line is broken, the Trailing Stop-line (TS-line) will start:
• low when bullish position
• high when bearish position
You can choose (settings -> Trigger -> Close or H/L ) whether close price or high/low should break the Trigger-line
When alerts are enabled ("Any alert() function call"), you'll get the following message:
• ' signal up ' when bullish position
• ' signal down' when bearish position
After that, the TS-line will be adjusted when:
• a blue bullishBear bar appears when in bullish position -> lowest of {low , previous blue bar's high or orange bar's low}
• an orange bearishBull bar appears when in bearish position -> highest of {high, previous blue bar's high or orange bar's low}
When alerts are enabled ("Any alert() function call"), and the TS-line is broken, you'll get the following message:
• ' TS-line broken down ' when out bullish position
• ' TS-line broken up ' when out bearish position
🔹 Reference Point
Default the direction of price will be evaluated by comparing closing price with opening price.
When open and close are the same, you'll get "neutral volume".
You can use "previous close" instead (as in built-in volume indicator) to include gaps.
If close equals open , but close is lower than previous close , it will be regarded as " down volume ",
similar, when close is higher than previous close , it will be regarded as " up volume "
Note, the setting applies for the current timeframe AND Lower timeframe:
Based on: " open " (close - open)
Based on: " previous close " (close - previous close)
🔹 Adjustment
When the TS-line changes, this can be adjusted with a percentage of price , or a multiple of " True Range "
Default (Δ line -> Adjustment - 0)
Δ line -> Adjustment 0.03% (of price)
Δ line -> Mult of TR (10)
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 LTF: choose your Lower TimeFrame: 1S (seconds), 5S, 10S, 15S, 30S, 1 minute)
🔹 Trigger: Choose the trigger for breaking the Trigger-line ; close or H/L (high when bullish position, low when bearish position)
🔹 Δ line ( Trailing Stop-line ): add/subtract an adjustment when the TS-line changes ( default: Adjustment ):
• Adjustment ( default: 0 ): add/subtract an extra % of price
• Mult of TR : add/subtract a multiple of True Range
🔹 Based on: compare closing price against:
• open
• previous close
🔹 "Neutral-Volume" is considered "Up-Volume" : this setting will dictate whether nV is considered as green 'buy' volume or not.
🔶 CONSIDERATIONS
🔹 The lowest LTF (1S) will give you more detail and will get data close to tick data.
However, a maximum of 100,000 intrabars can be used in calculations .
This means on the daily chart you won't see anything since 1 day ~ 86400 seconds. (just over 1 bar)
-> choose a lower chart timeframe, or choose a higher LTF (5S, 10S, ... 1 minute)
🔹 Always choose a LTF lower than the current chart timeframe.
🔹 Pine Script™ code using this request.security_lower_tf() may calculate differently on historical and real-time bars, leading to repainting .
Trade Tool VDWMA + OI RSI BasedThis indicator works only for symbols where open interest data is available.
The idea was to create a combination of Volume Delta, Open Interest, RSI, Moving Average and Support / Resistance as a unified tool.
I created a Weighted Moving Average based on the Volume Delta (VDWMA). The idea behind this was to reflect the moving average on the difference between buy and sell volume.
There are two VDWMA to determine a trend. Fast and Slow. The principle is the same as with conventional moving averages. For visualization, the candles are colored based on the following logic:
up trend = Fast VDWMA is above the Slow VDWMA and the price is above the Fast VWDWMA.
down Trend = Fast VDWMA is below the Slow VDWMA and the Short is below the Fast VDWMA
Further, support and resistance zones were defined based on the close and high prices as well as close and low prices.
A simple logic looks for divergences between RSI and price to generate first signals for possible price reversals.
Another RSI was created based on the open interest.
In combination with the conventional RSI, oversold and overbought zones were defined based on the following logic, which are marked by vertical zones on the chart.
Oversold zone = RSI is below 30 and OI RSI is above 70 or below 30 and OI opening is not greater than OI closing price
Overbought zone = RSI is above 70 and OI RSI is above 70 or below 30 and OI opening is not smaller than OI closing price
Based on this, buy and sell signals were defined.
First, the support or resistance zone must remain the same for two candles, which signals that the zone has not been breached. In addition, a divergence must occur in the RSI and the price must bounce.
newsell = resistance == resistance and high >= resistance and close < resistance and bearishDiv
newbull = support == support and low <= support and close > support and bullishDiv
The OI signaling was deliberately not included as well as the trend function. The tool should be suitable for scalping as well as for swinging. Thus, depending on the tradestyle itself to decide which points you want to trade.

buyer_seller_scalping_indicatorThis code is a custom script designed for analyzing trading volume within a specific time window on the TradingView platform. It offers a comprehensive analysis of buying and selling activity during a defined period and provides visual aids and data summaries for traders to make informed decisions. Here's a detailed breakdown of its functionality and how to use it:
1. Custom Time Period: The script starts by allowing you to specify a custom time period for analysis. In this example, it's set from 04:00 to 09:29. You can modify these time values to suit your specific trading needs.
2. Volume Calculation: The script calculates buying and selling volume based on price levels. It takes into account the open, high, low, and close prices to determine whether buying or selling pressure is dominant during the specified time frame.
3. Total Volume Calculation: It calculates the total volume within the custom time period. This can help you gauge the overall activity and liquidity during the chosen time window.
4. Visualizations: The script then plots visual elements on the chart:
- A volume histogram, which provides a graphical representation of the total volume during the time period.
- Buying and selling volume indicators, which are shown as circles on the chart, highlighting the relative strength of buyers and sellers.
- An average volume line, represented in gray, which helps you identify the average trading volume over a 50-period moving average.
5. Volume Type Determination: The script determines whether buyers or sellers dominate the market during the specified time period. It labels this as "Buyers Volume > Sellers Volume," "Sellers Volume > Buyers Volume," or "Buyers Volume = Sellers Volume." This information can be crucial for assessing market sentiment.
6. Percentage Breakdown: The script calculates the percentage of buying and selling volume in relation to the total volume, helping you understand the distribution of market participants. These percentages are displayed in a table.
7. Table Display: Finally, the script creates a table that displays the following information:
- The current volume type (buyers, sellers, or balanced), with corresponding text colors.
- The percentage of buyers and sellers in the market.
How to Use:
1. Copy the script and add it as a custom script on TradingView.
2. Apply the script to your desired financial chart.
3. Adjust the custom time period if needed.
4. Interpret the visual elements and table to gain insights into market sentiment and volume distribution during the specified time frame.

Dynamic Liquidity Map [Kioseff Trading]Hello!
Just a quick/fun project here: "Dynamic Heatmap".
This script draws a volume delta or open interest delta heatmap for the asset on your chart.
The adjective "Dynamic" is used for two reasons (:
1: Self-Adjusting Lower Timeframe Data
The script requests ~10 lower timeframe volume and open interest data sets.
When using the fixed range feature the script will, beginning at the start time, check the ~10 requested lower timeframes to see which of the lower timeframes has available data.
The script will always use the lowest timeframe available during the calculation period. As time continues, the script will continue to check if new lower timeframe data (lower than the currently used lowest timeframe) is available. This process repeats until bar time is close enough to the current time that 1-minute data can be retrieved.
The image above exemplifies the process.
Incrementally lower timeframe data will be used as it becomes available.
1: Fixed range capabilities
The script features a "fixed range" tool, where you can manually set a start time (or drag & drop a bar on the chart) to determine the interval the heatmap covers.
From the start date, the script will calculate the calculate the sub-intervals necessary to draw a rows x columns heatmap. Consequently, setting the start time further back will draw a heat map with larger rows x columns, whereas, a start time closer to the current bar time will draw a more "precise" heatmap with smaller rows x columns.
Additionally, the heatmap can be calculated using open interest data.
The image above shows the heatmap displaying open interest delta.
The image above shows alternative settings for the heatmap.
Delta values have been hidden alongside grid border colors. These settings can be replicated to achieve a more "traditional" feel for the heatmap.
Thanks for checking this out!
Volume Delta CandlesThis indicator is designed to visualize the volume delta, which represents the difference between buying and selling volumes during each candle period. The indicator plots custom candlesticks on the chart, with OHLC values calculated based on the volume delta.
Calculations:
To calculate the volume delta, the indicator first determines the buying and selling volumes. If the closing price is higher than the opening price (close > open), the volume is considered as buying volume. If the closing price is lower than the opening price (close < open), the volume is considered as selling volume. Otherwise, the volume is set to zero. The volume delta is then calculated as the difference between the buying volume and the selling volume.
The custom OHLC values are derived from the volume delta. The custom open is obtained by subtracting the volume delta from the closing price. The custom close is obtained by adding the volume delta to the closing price. The custom high is set as the maximum value between the closing price and the custom open, ensuring that the candle represents the highest value within the range. The custom low is set as the minimum value between the closing price and the custom open, ensuring that the candle represents the lowest value within the range.
Interpretation:
The indicator's custom candles provide visual insights into the volume delta. Each candlestick's color (lime for positive volume delta, fuchsia for negative volume delta) indicates the dominance of buying or selling pressure during that period. When the volume delta is positive, it suggests that buying volume exceeded selling volume, possibly indicating a bullish sentiment. Conversely, when the volume delta is negative, it indicates that selling volume was higher, potentially signaling a bearish sentiment. The indicator also plots a zero line to represent the equilibrium point, where buying and selling volumes are equal.
Potential Uses and Limitations:
Traders can use the indicator to gain insights into the strength and direction of buying and selling pressures. Positive volume delta during an uptrend could suggest the presence of strong buying interest, potentially supporting further bullish moves. On the other hand, negative volume delta during a downtrend could indicate intensified selling pressure, hinting at potential further declines. Traders might use the indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools, such as support and resistance levels, trendlines, or oscillators, to confirm potential reversal points or trend continuations.
It's essential to interpret the indicator in the context of the overall market environment. While volume delta can provide valuable insights into short-term buying and selling imbalances, it is just one aspect of market analysis. Traders should consider other factors, such as market structure, fundamental events, and overall sentiment, to make informed trading decisions. Additionally, the indicator's efficacy might vary across different market conditions, and it may produce false signals during low-volume periods or choppy markets.
Conclusion:
By visualizing volume delta through custom candlesticks, traders can gauge market sentiment and potentially identify key reversal or continuation points. As with any technical indicator, it is advisable to use the Volume Delta Candles in combination with other tools to gain a comprehensive understanding of market conditions and make well-informed trading choices. Additionally, traders should practice proper risk management techniques to protect their capital while using the indicator in their trading strategy.
