Indicator Concept: Purpose: The indicator measures the cumulative difference between the strength of buyers and sellers. It uses volume along with price direction to calculate market strength.
Calculation Method: For each candlestick, the Delta is calculated as follows:
If the candlestick closes green (Close > Open): Delta = +Volume If the candlestick closes red (Close < Open): Delta = -Volume If the candlestick closes neutral (Close = Open): Delta = 0 The cumulative Delta is then summed for the last 21 candles (default value, adjustable in settings).
Display: The indicator is displayed as columns:
Green columns: When the cumulative Delta is positive (indicating stronger buying pressure). Red columns: When the cumulative Delta is negative (indicating stronger selling pressure). A dashed horizontal line at the zero level for reference. Background shading changes based on the indicator's value: Light green for positive zones. Light red for negative zones. How to Use the Indicator: Rising green columns: Indicate increasing buying pressure. Rising red columns: Indicate increasing selling pressure. Column color changes from red to green: May signal a potential market reversal. Longer columns: Represent stronger pressure in the respective direction. Adjustable Settings: Length: The number of candles used in the calculation (default: 21). This value can be modified in the indicator settings as needed. Utility: This indicator is useful for:
Assessing the strength of the current trend. Identifying potential market turning points. Measuring cumulative buying and selling pressure. Confirming price breakouts with strong volume.
