Volume Trend Meter LTFA new take to an already popular indicator of mine, now with lower time frame support for a volume called Volume Trend Meter LTF (VTML).
The VTM LTF indicator measures the volume pressure at a specific part of the candle (Start, Middle, or the end of the candle) and displays it as a histogram.
This indicator sums up all green candle volumes and red candle volumes over the selected part of the candle (Select in settings - start end or middle) and plots their values by subtracting increasing volume and decreasing volume.
Use this indicator to identify increasing volume with the green candles (close bigger than open) and increasing volume of the red candles (close is smaller than open).
Can also work on daily charts and higher.
======= Calculation ==========
For Green Column: The total Volume of green candles is higher than the total red candle volume.
For Red Column: The total Volume of red candles is higher than the total green candle volume.
======= Volume Trend Meter LTF Colors =======
Green: Increasing buying pressure.
Red: Increasing selling pressure.

Volume towers by GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIAVolume Towers by GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA
Overview :
This Pine Script visualizes volume activity and provides insights into market sentiment through the display of buying and selling volume, alongside moving averages. It highlights high and low volume candles, enabling traders to make informed decisions based on volume anomalies. The script is designed to identify key volume conditions, such as below-average volume, high-volume candles, and their relationship to price movement.
Script Details:
The script calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume over a user-defined period and categorizes volume into several states:
Below Average Volume: Volume is below the moving average.
High Volume: Volume exceeds the moving average by a multiplier (configurable by the user).
Low Volume: Volume that doesn’t qualify as either high or below average.
Additionally, the script distinguishes between buying volume (when the close is higher than the open) and selling volume (when the close is lower than the open). This categorization is color-coded for better visualization:
Green: Below average buying volume.
Red: Below average selling volume.
Blue: High-volume buying.
Purple: High-volume selling.
Black: Low volume.
The Volume Moving Average (SMA) is plotted as a reference line, helping users identify trends in volume over time.
Features & Customization:
Customizable Inputs:
Volume MA Length: The period for calculating the volume moving average (default is 20).
High Volume Multiplier: A multiplier for defining high volume conditions (default is 2.0).
Color-Coded Volume Histograms:
Different colors are used for buying and selling volume, as well as high and low-volume candles, for quick visual analysis.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set for the following conditions:
Below-average buying volume.
Below-average selling volume.
High-volume conditions.
How It Works:
Volume Moving Average (SMA) is calculated using the user-defined period (length), and it acts as the baseline for categorizing volume.
Volume Conditions:
Below Average Volume: Identifies candles with volume below the SMA.
High Volume: Identifies candles where volume exceeds the SMA by the set multiplier (highVolumeMultiplier).
Low Volume: When volume is neither high nor below average.
Buying and Selling Volume:
The script identifies buying and selling volume based on the closing price relative to the opening price:
Buying Volume: When the close is greater than the open.
Selling Volume: When the close is less than the open.
Volume histograms are then plotted using the respective colors for quick visualization of volume trends.
User Interface & Settings:
Inputs:
Volume MA Length: Adjust the period for the volume moving average.
High Volume Multiplier: Define the multiplier for high volume conditions.
Plots:
Buying Volume: Green bars indicate buying volume.
Selling Volume: Red bars indicate selling volume.
High Volume: Blue or purple bars for high-volume candles.
Low Volume: Black bars for low-volume candles.
Volume Moving Average Line: Displays the moving average line for reference.

Volume Delta with PVSRAVolume Delta with PVSRA
Volume Delta with PVSRA is an advanced volume indicator that dissects each bar’s volume into its directional components using higher resolution data. It visually distinguishes between buying and selling volume, so that for a bullish candle the bottom portion represents buying volume and for a bearish candle it represents selling volume. A dot is plotted at the 50% mark of the candle’s total volume, serving as a clear reference point.
Key Features:
Directional Volume Breakdown:
The indicator calculates the delta volume by analyzing lower timeframe data. The bottom portion of a bullish candle (displayed in green) represents buying volume, while that of a bearish candle (displayed in red) represents selling volume.
PVSRA Analysis:
Using Price-Volume Spread Range Analysis, the indicator compares the current volume to the 10-bar average. When volume is significantly higher (using thresholds of 150% and 200%), the candle borders are highlighted in custom colors, indicating medium or strong volume conditions.
Volume Moving Averages:
Three moving averages are plotted:
Total Volume MA (yellow): Tracks overall volume.
Buying Volume MA (green) and Selling Volume MA (red): These are re-centered around the total volume MA. A crossover of the green over the red typically signals rising buying pressure, while the opposite indicates increasing selling pressure.
Scalable Volume Bars:
The indicator scales the volume bars to provide optimal visualization on your chart.
Setup Instructions:
For best results, open your chart settings, navigate to the Canvas tab, and set the bottom margin to 0%. This ensures the indicator displays like a standard volume indicator without any unwanted gaps at the bottom.
Customize the various settings—including colors, border opacity, and moving average parameters—to suit your trading style.
Volume Distribution (Heat Map)This Pine Script indicator, "Volume Distribution (Heat Map)" is designed to visualize the distribution of volume across different price levels over a specified lookback period. Here's a detailed breakdown of its functionality and features:
Indicator Overview
User Inputs
Length: The lookback period for analysis, defaulting to 500 bars.
Source: The price source used for calculations (default is the close price).
Color Intensity: Adjusts the intensity of the heatmap colors, with a default value of 25.
Lines Width: The width of the plotted lines, with a default value of 10.
Main Color: The main color used for the heatmap (default is lime).
Logic
The script iterates through the number of bins, calculates the volume for each bin between highest and lowest prices for length period, and updates the corresponding bin in the freq array if the current bar is allowed.
If the current bar is the last bar, the script plots lines and labels based on the volume distribution.
Heatmap Lines:
Solid lines colored based on the volume in each bin, using a gradient from no color to the main color based on amount of volume.
Highest Volume Line:
A dashed red line indicating the bin with the highest volume.
Labels:
Labels for the highest and lowest prices and the volume at the highest volume bin.
Plots
Highest Price Plot: Plots the highest price within the lookback period if the current bar is within the allowed range.
Lowest Price Plot: Plots the lowest price within the lookback period if the current bar is within the allowed range.
Summary
This indicator provides a visual representation of where trading volume is concentrated across different price levels, forming a heatmap. The highest volume level is highlighted with a dashed red line and a label indicating the volume at that level. This can help traders identify significant price levels where trading activity is clustered.
The "Volume Distribution (Heat Map)" indicator is a valuable tool for traders looking to enhance their technical analysis by incorporating volume data into their price charts. It provides a clear and visual representation of where market participants are most active, aiding in better-informed trading decisions.
Volume Delta [hapharmonic]Volume Delta: Volume Delta is an indicator that simplifies how you analyze trading volumes and the percentage of buy-sell activities effortlessly.
As a trader or market analyst, understanding underlying volume and trade flows is critical. The Volume Delta indicator provides thorough insight into both the total volume and the percentage of buying versus selling within the current candlestick. This information is pivotal for those looking to gauge market momentum and sentiment more effectively.
Additionally, the Volume Delta indicator can plot the candlestick colors based on the percentage of the dominant buying or selling volume. The area between the open and close prices of the candlestick is considered 100% and fills with colors corresponding to the predominant volume at that percentage.
Volume Delta also integrates the concept of Net volume. This component is crucial as it reveals the real market sentiment by calculating the difference between the volume of trades executed at an uptick and those at a downtick.
🟠 Overview
This indicator now displays in two layouts. Recently, Tradingview introduced the "force_overlay=true" function in Pine Script , allowing plots to be moved to the main chart. Thus, all displays are from the same indicator.
🟠 USAGE
From the data displayed in 'plot.style_columns' , the peak area represents the entire volume, accounting for 100%. Within this area, there are two color levels indicating volume. If one type of volume, whether buying or selling, exceeds the other, the larger volume will be positioned behind and the smaller in front. This arrangement prevents the scenario where a higher buying volume obscures the smaller selling volume. Therefore, the two colors can be switched between the front and the back as needed.
As you can see, the 12 and 26-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) are used, with the Volume Confirmation Length set at 6. Therefore, the crossing of the EMAs proceeds normally, but it is highlighted with three triangular arrows to indicate a high likelihood of a valid crossover. However, if the volume is insufficient, these markers won't be displayed, although the EMA crossover will still occur as usual. This can be useful for using volume to verify the significance of the EMA crossover.
🟠 Setting
If you enable the label, please be aware that the chart size will shrink, causing the candlestick display to become unclear. Therefore, you might need to select "Logarithmic" at the bottom right of your screen, or for mobile applications, press and hold on the price scale and choose "Logarithmic" to adjust the scale appropriately.
Enjoy!
Volume Zones Multi-Timeframe OverlayAt its core, this indicator is a variation of my other indicator, Welkin Advanced Volume Overlay (for VSA )
This version is based on the power of multi-timeframe analysis. The basic functionality is simple: Plot lines from the high and low of candles formed during periods of high volume and fill the space between them. The volume levels for deciding what counts as "high volume" are based on standard deviations of the volume's SMA , and the higher the volume , the brighter the zone. i.e., a volume zone set by a volume level that is 4 standard deviations higher than average will be more "filled in" and less transparent than a volume zone from a 2 standard deviation candle.
These zones tend to act as areas of congestion, and the "ceilings" and "floors" of the zones as support and resistance . Overlapping zones tend to indicate strength and are likely to require more effort to get through. The more timeframes that agree with each other, the stronger the zone, ceiling, or floor.
By default, these zones are drawn based on the chart's timeframe and 1 timeframe higher, automatically set based on some "standard" values:
1m -> 5m
5m -> 15m
10m -> 30m
15m -> 60m
30m -> 60m
60m -> 1d
1d -> 1w
Finally, both the base timeframe and the higher timeframe are customizable; this is intended to make it easy to "double" up copies of the indicator to fit even more timeframes on the chart, creating a sort of heatmap for volume price analysis.
An example of three copies of the indicator, showing volume zones from 6 different timeframes.
Volume Profile Array's [fikira]Inspired by © IldarAkhmetgaleev (AkhIL) - "Poor man's volume profile" - "PMVolProf"
He did a fantastic job on "Volume Profile"!
My script is about making this with array's
Settings:
- period (last x bars) for calculation
- max width (visible horizontal range)
- amount of sections (vertical sections; to many sections can give an error -> lower the sections in that case)
Setting "high/low", "close":
- "high/low"
-> the volume of every bar (in the period) which low is lower than a particular section and which high is higher than that section is added to that section
- "close"
-> here the volume of every bar (in the period) which close closes in the range of a particular section is added to that section
The orange/blue coloured "Volume lines" are the highest/lowest values above and below present close
(can be used as Support/resistance )
"Only show max/min" shows only the orange/blue Volume lines
The period and highest/lowest is show by 2 thin blue lines
Color, line width is adjustable
Cheers!
Volume Gaps & Imbalances (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Volume Gaps & Imbalances (Zeiierman) is an advanced market-structure and order-flow visualizer that maps where the market traded, where it did not, and how buyer-vs-seller pressure accumulated across the entire price range.
The core of the indicator is a price-by-price volume profile built from Bullish and Bearish volume assignments. The script highlights:
True zero-volume voids (regions of no traded volume)
Bull/Bear imbalance rows (horizontal volume slices)
A multi-section Delta Panel, showing aggregated Buy–Sell pressure per vertical sector
A clean separation between profile structure, volume efficiency, and delta flows
Together, these components reveal market inefficiencies, displacement zones, and fair-value regions that price tends to revisit — making it an exceptional tool for structural trading, order-flow analysis, and contextual confluence.
Highlights
Identifies true volume voids (untraded price regions), more precisely than standard FVG tools
Plots Bull vs Bear volume at each price row for fine-grained imbalance reading
Includes a sector-based Delta Grid that aggregates Buy–Sell dominance
█ How It Works
⚪ Profile Construction
The indicator scans a user-defined Lookback window and divides the full high–low range into Rows. Each bar's volume is allocated into the correct price bucket:
Bullish volume when close > open
Bearish volume when close <= open
This produces three values per price level:
Bull Volume
Bear Volume
Total Volume & Imbalance Profile
Rows where no volume at all occurred are marked as volume gaps — signaling true untraded zones, often produced by impulsive imbalanced moves.
⚪ Zero-Volume Gaps (True Voids)
Unlike candle-based Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), volume gaps identify the deeper, structural inefficiency: Price moved so fast through a region that no trades occurred at those prices. These areas often attract revisits because liquidity never exchanged hands there.
⚪ Bull/Bear Volume Imbalance
Every price row is drawn using two colored horizontal segments:
Bull segment proportional to bullish volume
Bear segment proportional to bearish volume
This reveals where buyers or sellers dominated individual price levels.
⚪ Delta Panel
The full volume profile is cut into Summary Sections. For each block, the script computes: Δ = (Bull Volume − Bear Volume) ÷ Total Volume × 100%
█ How to Use
⚪ Spot True Voids & Inefficiencies
Zero-volume zones highlight where the price moved without trading. These areas often behave like:
Refill zones during retracements
Targets during displacement
Thin regions price slices through quickly
Ideal for both SMC-style trading and structural mapping.
⚪ Identify Bull/Bear Control at Each Price Level
Broad bullish segments show zones of buyer absorption, while wide bearish slices reveal seller control.
This helps you interpret:
Where buyers supported the price
Where sellers defended a level
Which price levels matter for continuation or reversal
⚪ Use Delta Sectors for Contextual Direction
The delta panel shows where market pressure is accumulating, revealing whether the profile is dominated by:
Bullish flow (positive delta)
Bearish flow (negative delta)
Neutral flow (balanced or minimal delta)
█ Settings
Lookback – Number of bars scanned to build the profile.
Rows – Vertical resolution of price bins.
Source – Price source used to assign volume into rows.
Summary Sections – Number of vertical delta sectors.
Summary Width – Horizontal size of the delta bar panel.
Gap From Profile – Distance between profile and delta grid.
Show Delta Text – Toggle Δ% labels.

Volume Rotor Clock [hapharmonic]🕰️ Volume Rotor Clock
The Volume Rotor Clock is an indicator that separates buy and sell volume, compiling these volumes over a recent number of bars or a specified past period, as defined by the user. This helps to reveal accumulation (buying) or distribution (selling) behavior, showing which side has superior volume. With its unique and beautiful display, the Volume Rotor Clock is more than just a timepiece; it's a dynamic dashboard that visualizes the buying and selling pressure of your favorite symbols, all wrapped in an elegant and fully customizable interface.
Instead of just tracking price, this indicator focuses on the engine behind the movement: volume. It helps you instantly identify which assets are under accumulation (buying) and which are under distribution (selling).

🎨 20 Pre-configured Templates
---
🧐 Interpreting the Clock Display
The interface is designed to give you multiple layers of information at a glance. Let's break down what each part represents.
1. The Main Clock Hands (Current Chart Symbol)
The clock hands—hour, minute, and second—are dedicated to the symbol on your current active chart .
Minute Hand: Displays the base currency of the current symbol (e.g., USDT, USD) at its tip.
Hour Hand: Displays the percentage of the winning volume side (buy vs. sell) at its tip.
Color Gauge: The color of the text characters at the tip of both the hour and minute hands acts as your primary volume gauge for the current symbol.
If buy volume is dominant , the text will be green .
If sell volume is dominant , the text will be red .
Tooltip: Hovering your mouse over the text at the tip of the hour or minute or other spherical elements hand will reveal a detailed tooltip with the precise Buy Volume, Sell Volume, Total Volume, Buy %, and Sell % for the current chart's symbol.
2. The Volume Scanner: Bulls & Bears (Symbols Inside the Clock) 🐂🐻
The circular symbols scattered inside the clock face are your multi-symbol volume scanner. They represent the assets you've selected in the indicator's settings.
Green Circles (Bulls - Upper Half): These represent symbols from your list where the total buy volume is greater than the total sell volume over the defined "Lookback" period. They are considered to be under bullish accumulation. The size of the circle and its text grows larger as the buy percentage becomes more dominant. The percentage shown within the circle represents the buy volume's share of the total volume, calculated over the 'Lookback (Bars)' you've set.
Red Circles (Bears - Lower Half): These represent symbols where the total sell volume is greater than the total buy volume. They are considered to be under bearish distribution or selling pressure. The size of the circle indicates the dominance of the sell-side volume. The percentage shown within the circle represents the sell volume's share of the total volume, calculated over the 'Lookback (Bars)' you've set.
3. The Bullish Watchlist (Symbols Above the Clock) ⭐
The symbols arranged neatly along the top edge of the clock are the "best of the bulls." They are symbols that are not only bullish but have also passed an additional, powerful strength filter.
What it Means: A symbol appears here when it shows signs of sustained, high-volume buying interest . It's a way to filter out noise and focus on assets with potentially significant accumulation phases.
The Filter Logic: For a bullish symbol (where total buy volume > total sell volume) to be promoted to the watchlist, its trading volume must meet specific criteria based on this formula:
ta.barssince(not(volume > ta.sma(volume, X))) >= Y
In plain English, this means: The indicator checks how many consecutive bars the `volume` has been greater than its `X`-bar Simple Moving Average (`ta.sma(volume, X)`). If this count is greater than or equal to `Y` bars, the condition is met.
(You can configure `X` (Volume MA Length) and `Y` (Consecutive Days Above MA) in the settings.)
Why it's Useful: This filter is powerful because it looks for consistency . A single spike in volume can be an anomaly. However, when an asset's volume remains consistently above its recent average for several consecutive days, it strongly suggests that larger players or a significant portion of the market are actively accumulating the asset. This sustained interest can often precede a significant upward price trend.

Volume Flow ImbalanceVolume Flow Imbalance (VFI) Indicator
The Volume Flow Imbalance (VFI) indicator is designed to provide traders with insights into the market's buying and selling pressure by calculating the imbalance between buy and sell volumes over a user-defined lookback period. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying potential pivot points and market sentiment shifts.
How to Use :
Setup Parameters :
Lookback Period: Set the number of bars over which the imbalance is calculated. Increasing this number provides a broader view of market trends.
Lower Timeframe Data: Optionally enable this feature to analyze volume data from lower timeframes, offering a more granified view of volume flows.
Interpreting the Indicator :
The VFI outputs a value that represents the net imbalance between buying and selling volumes. Positive values indicate a predominance of buying volume, suggesting bullish conditions, while negative values suggest bearish conditions with more selling volume.
The indicator also provides dynamic threshold lines based on the standard deviation of the calculated imbalances, helping to visually identify extreme conditions where reversals might occur.
Application :
Apply the VFI to any chart to assess the balance of trade volumes in real-time.
Use the indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm trends or potential reversals.
Tips :
Adjust the lookback period based on the volatility and trading volume of the asset to optimize performance.
The VFI is best used in liquid markets where volume data is a reliable indicator of market activity.
By providing a clear measure of how much buying and selling is occurring relative to the past, the VFI helps traders make informed decisions based on underlying market dynamics.
Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman) is a next-generation volume profile that renders market participation as a 3D-style profile directly on your chart. Instead of flat histograms, you get a depth-aware profile with parallax, gradient transparency, and bull/bear separation, so you can see where liquidity stacked up and how it shifted during the move.
Highlights:
3D visual effect with perspective and depth shading for clarity.
Bull/Bear separation to see whether up bars or down bars created the volume.
Flexible colors and gradients that highlight where the most significant trading activity took place.
This is a state-of-the-art volume profile — visually powerful, highly flexible, and unlike anything else available.
█ How It Works
⚪ Profile Construction
The price range (from highest to lowest) is divided into a number of levels (buckets). Each bar’s volume is added to the correct level, based on its average price. This builds a map of where trading volume was concentrated.
You can choose to:
Aggregate all volume at each level, or
Split bullish vs. bearish volume , slightly offset for clarity.
This creates a clear view of which price zones matter most to the market.
⚪ 3D Effect Creation
The unique part of this indicator is how the 3D projection is built. Each volume block’s width is scaled to its relative size, then tilted with a slope factor to create a depth effect.
maxVol = bins.bu.max() + bins.be.max()
width = math.max(1, math.floor(bucketVol / maxVol * ((bar_index - start) * mult)))
slope = -(step * dev) / ((bar_index - start) * (mult/2))
factor = math.pow(math.min(1.0, math.abs(slope) / step), .5)
width → determines how far the volume extends, based on relative strength.
slope → creates the angled projection for the 3D look.
factor → adjusts perspective to make deeper areas shrink naturally.
The result is a 3D-style volume profile where large areas pop forward and smaller areas fade back, giving you immediate visual context.
█ How to Use
⚪ Support & Resistance Zones (HVNs and Value Area)
Regions where a lot of volume traded tend to act like walls:
If price approaches a high-volume area from above, it may act as support.
From below, it may act as resistance.
Traders often enter or exit near these zones because they represent strong agreement among market participants.
⚪ POC Rejections & Mean Reversions
The Point of Control (POC) is the single price level with the highest volume in the profile.
When price returns to the POC and rejects it, that’s often a signal for reversal trades.
In ranging markets, price may bounce between edges of the Value Area and revert to POC.
⚪ Breakouts via Low-Volume Zones (LVNs)
Low volume areas (gaps in the profile) offer path of least resistance:
Price often moves quickly through these thin zones when momentum builds.
Use them to spot breakouts or continuation trades.
⚪ Directional Insight
Use the bull/bear separation to see whether buyers or sellers dominated at key levels.
█ Settings
Use Active Chart – Profile updates with visible candles.
Custom Period – Fixed number of bars.
Up/Down – Adjust tilt for the 3D angle.
Left/Right – Scale width of the profile.
Aggregated – Merge bull/bear volume.
Bull/Bear Shift – Separate bullish and bearish volume.
Buckets – Number of price levels.
Choose from templates or set custom colors.
POC Gradient option makes high volume bolder, low volume lighter.

Understanding Accuracy Metrics
The dashboard provides key performance metrics to evaluate prediction quality:
Average Error
Shows the average difference between predicted and actual values
Positive values indicate the prediction tends to be higher than actual volume
Negative values indicate the prediction tends to be lower than actual volume
Values closer to zero indicate better prediction accuracy
Accuracy Percentage
A measure of how close predictions are to actual outcomes
Higher percentages (>70%) indicate excellent prediction quality
Moderate percentages (50-70%) indicate acceptable predictions
Lower percentages (<50%) suggest weaker prediction reliability
The accuracy metrics are color-coded for quick assessment:
Green: Strong prediction performance
Orange: Moderate prediction performance
Red: Weaker prediction performance
✅ Best Use Cases
Anticipate upcoming volume spikes or drops
Identify potential volume divergences from price action
Plan entries and exits around expected volume changes
Filter trading signals based on predicted volume support
Optimize position sizing by forecasting market participation
Prepare for potential volatility changes signaled by volume predictions

⚠️ Limitations
Volume predictions become less accurate over longer time horizons
Performance varies based on market conditions and asset characteristics
Works best on liquid assets with consistent volume patterns
Requires sufficient historical data for pattern recognition
Sudden market events can disrupt prediction accuracy
Volume spikes may be muted in predictions due to normalization

💡 Note:
The Volume Predictor performs optimally on liquid assets with established volume patterns. It’s most effective when used in conjunction with price action analysis and other technical indicators. The multi-algorithm approach allows adaptation to different market conditions by switching prediction methods. Pay special attention to the accuracy metrics when evaluating prediction reliability, as sudden market changes can temporarily reduce prediction quality. The normalized percentage scale makes the indicator consistent across different assets and timeframes, providing a standardized approach to volume analysis.
Volume to Shares Outstanding Ratio IndicatorDescription:
This indicator shows the ratio of trading volume to the total number of shares outstanding.
Formula:
Volume to Shares Outstanding Ratio = (Trading Volume / Shares Outstanding) * 100
説明:
このインジケーターは、出来高を発行済株式数で割った比率を表示します。
式:
出来高の割合 = (出来高 / 発行済株式数) × 100
Highest Volume Bar from a Lower TimeframeVolume is an essential indicator in technical analysis as it can signal confirmations of movement, reversals, and more. This indicator was developed to identify candles with high volume in both the current timeframe and a lower timeframe
SETTINGS
The indicator has two display modes: Candles and Volume.
- Candles: it presents a traditional candlestick chart that shows the candles of the current timeframe, along with the candle with the highest volume from the lower timeframe.
- Volume: it features a volume chart displaying the volume of the current timeframe in histogram form, as well as the bar with the highest volume from the lower timeframe represented in columns.
LOWER TIME FRAME SETTINGS
- Lower Time Frame: the lower timeframe to be taken into consideration.
- LTF Candle Display: determines which candles from the current timeframe chart will display the candles with the highest volume from the lower timeframe.
- Volume Display: determines how the volume bars will be presented for both the current timeframe and the lower timeframe.
VOLUME LEVEL SETTINGS
- SMA Period: the time period for calculating the volume average.
- High Volume: the multiplier used to classify a candle as having high volume.
- Medium Volume: the multiplier used to classify a candle as having medium volume.
- Low Volume: the multiplier used to classify a candle as having low volume.
- Show Volume MA: enable this option to display the Volume MA on the chart.
COLOR SETTINGS
- Candle Color: the color to be used in the charts.
- Shade Intensity : the intensity of the shades for volume levels.
- Transparency : the transparency to be used for the candles of the current timeframe when displaying candles with higher volume from the lower timeframe.
Volume Profile PlusThis indicator provides a high-resolution and high-precision implementation of Volume Profile with flexible range settings. Its key features include:
1. Support for a high resolution of up to 2,500 rows.
2. Capability to examine lower timeframe bars (default 5,000 intra-bars) for enhanced precision.
3. Three range modes — "Visible Range", "Anchored Range", and "All Range".
4. Highlighting of Point of Control and Value Area.
5. Extensive customization options allowing users to configure dimensions, on-chart placements, and color schemes.
🔵 Settings
The settings screen, along with the explanations for each setting, is provided below:
🔵 High Resolution using Polyline
Inspired by @fikira, this indicator utilizes the newly introduced `polyline` type in PineScript to plot the volume profile. It employs a single polyline instance to represent the entire histogram. With each polyline instance supporting up to 10,000 points and each histogram row requiring 4 points, this indicator can accommodate 2500 rows, resulting in a significantly higher resolution compared to conventional volume profile indicators that use `line`s or `box`es to draw the histogram.
🔵 High Precision Data-binning using Lower Timeframe Data
Conventional volume profile indicators often face one or both of the following limitations:
1. They only consider volume within the chart's current timeframe.
2. They assign each bar's total volume to a single price bucket based on the bar's average price, rather than distributing volume across multiple price buckets.
As a result, when the number of bars in the chart is low, those indicators may provide imprecise results, making it difficult to accurately identify significant volume nodes and the point of control.
To address these limitations and enhance accuracy, this indicator examines data from lower timeframes and distributes the volume to fine-grained price buckets. It intelligently selects an appropriate lower timeframe to ensure precise output while complying with a maximum specified number of bars to maintain good performance.
🔵 Three Range Modes
This indicator offers users the flexibility to choose from three range modes:
1. Visible Range (Default Mode): In this mode, the volume profile calculation begins at the time of the left-most bar displayed in the current viewport. As the user scrolls through the viewport, the volume profile updates automatically.
2. Anchored Range: This mode allows the user to set the start time either by using the datetime input boxes or by dragging the anchor line on the chart.
3. All Range: In this mode, the volume profile calculation is based on all the historical bars available in the chart.
Volume Orderbook (Expo)█ Overview
The Volume Orderbook indicator is a volume analysis tool that visually resembles an order book. It's used for displaying trading volume data in a way that may be easier to interpret or more intuitive for certain traders, especially those familiar with order book analysis.
This indicator aggregate and display the total trading volume at different price levels over the entire range of data available on the chart, similar to how an order book displays current buy and sell orders at different price levels. However, unlike a real-time order book, it only considers historical trading data, not current bid and ask orders. This provides a 'historical order book' of sorts, indicating where most trading activities have taken place.
Summary
This is a volume-based indicator that shows the volume traded at specific price levels, highlighting areas of high and low activity.
█ Calculations
The algorithm operates by calculating the cumulative volume traded in each specific price zone within the range of data displayed on the chart. The length of each horizontal bar corresponds to the total volume of trades that occurred within that particular price zone.
In essence, when the price is in a specific zone, the volume is added to the bar representing that zone. A thicker bar implies a larger price zone, meaning that more volume is accumulated within that bar. Therefore, the thickness of the bar visually indicates the amount of trading activity that took place within the associated price zone.
█ How to use
The Volume Orderbook indicator serves as a beneficial tool for traders by identifying key price levels with a significant amount of trading activity. These high-volume areas could represent potential support or resistance levels due to the large number of orders situated there. The indicator's ability to spotlight these zones might be particularly advantageous in pinpointing breakouts or breakdowns when prices move beyond these high-volume regions. Moreover, the indicator could also assist traders in recognizing anomalies, such as when an unusually large volume of trades occurs at unconventional price levels.
Identify Key Price Levels: The indicator highlights high-volume areas where a significant number of trades have occurred, which could act as potential support or resistance levels. This is based on the notion that many traders have established positions at these prices, so these levels may serve as significant areas for market activity in the future.
Volume Nodes: These are the peaks (high-volume areas) and troughs (low-volume areas) seen on the indicator. High-volume nodes represent price levels at which a large amount of volume has been traded, typically areas of strong support or resistance. Conversely, low-volume nodes, where very little volume has been traded, indicate price levels that traders have shown little interest in the past and could potentially act as barriers to price. It's important to note that while high trading volume can imply significant market interest, it doesn't always mean the price will stop or reverse at these levels. Sometimes, prices can quickly move through high-volume areas if there are no current orders (demand) to match with the new orders (supply).
Analyze Market Psychology: The distribution of volume across different price levels can provide insights into the market's psychology, revealing the balance of power between buyers and sellers.
Highlight Potential Reversal Points: The indicator can help identify price levels with high traded volume where the market might be more likely to reverse since these levels have previously attracted significant interest from traders.
Validate Breakouts or Breakdowns: If the price moves convincingly past a high-volume node, it could indicate a strong trend, suggesting a potential breakout or breakdown. Conversely, if the price struggles to move past a high-volume node, it could suggest that the trend is weak and might potentially reverse.
Trade Reversals: High-volume areas could also indicate potential turning points in the market. If the price reaches these levels and then starts to move away, it might suggest a possible price reversal.
Confirm Other Signals: As with all technical indicators, the "Volume Orderbook" should ideally be used in conjunction with other forms of technical and fundamental analysis to confirm signals and increase the odds of successful trades.
Summary
The Volume Orderbook indicator allows traders to identify key price levels, analyze market psychology, highlight potential reversal points, validate breakouts or breakdowns, confirm other trading signals, and anticipate possible trade reversals, thereby serving as a robust tool for trading analysis.
█ Settings
Source: The user can select the source, the default of which is "close." This implies that volume is added to the volume order book when the closing price falls within a specific zone. Users can modify this to any indicator present on their chart. For example, if it's set to an SMA (Simple Moving Average) of 20, the volume will be added to the volume order book when the SMA 20 falls within the specific zone.
Rows and width: These settings allow users to adjust the representation of volume order book zones. "ROWS" pertains to the number of volume order book zones displayed, while "WIDTH" refers to the breadth of each zone.
Table and Grid: These settings allow traders to customize the Volume order-book's position and appearance. By adjusting the "left" parameter, users can shift the position of the Volume order book on the chart; a higher value pushes the order book further to the right. Additionally, users can enable "Table Border" and "Table Grid" options to add gridlines or borders to the Volume order book for easier viewing and interpretation.

Volume Delta Compare [Ticks ~ LTF data]
The "Volume Delta Compare " publication shows 2 different techniques to show into-depth details of Volume, using Tick and Lower-Time-Frame (LTF) data.
🔶 USAGE
Check for divergences between price and volume movement
Check details (why and when a ΔV developed)
Or if you want to see a lot of data stacked on each other )
🔶 CONCEPTS
🔹 Tick vs. LTF data
a Tick is an measure of (upward or downward) movement in price OR volume.
We can use this data by using varip in the code.
Advantage:
• Detail, detail, detail
• Accurate, per tick
Disadvantage:
• Only realtime
• Can reset 'easily' -> loss of data
• Will reset when settings are changed
LTF data, through the request.security_lower_tf() function, measures the OHLCV data per LTF bar
Advantage:
• Access to history when loading a chart
• No 'loss' of data when chart resets
Disadvantage:
• Less detailed
• Less accurate
This script makes it possible to compare the 2 techniques and enables you to show different values.
🔹 Values
There are mainly 3 important values:
• UP volume (uV): volume when price rises
• DOWN volume (dV): volume when price falls
• NEUTRAL volume (nV): volume when price stays the same
From this, additional data is calculated:
• Volume Delta (ΔV): uV minus dV
• Cumulative Delta Volume (cΔV): sum of ΔV
One typical nV is at open: at that moment there isn't a base price to compare with,
so when the first trade doesn't fully fill the first supply (up or down), volume will rise, but price just is 'open', no movement -> no uV or dV.
• Tick data: every volume changement per tick will be added to the concerning variable (uV, dV or nV)
• LTF data: every volume changement of each bar will be added to the concerning variable (uV, dV or nV)
-> this can easily give a difference, for example (Tick vs. 1 minute LTF), when most of the ticks caused a rise of price, but at the last few seconds, a few ticks causes the close to come below open, with Tick data this could give more UP Volume, while LTF data will show 1 value of DOWN Volume.
🔶 EXAMPLES
🔹 Details
In these examples you can see:
• grey line: Total volume (higher precision)
• UP/DOWN/NEUTRAL Volume
• green columns: uV
• orange columns: dV
• blue pillars: nV
• coloured stepline: reflects ΔV
• close > open and positive ΔV -> green
• close > open but negative ΔV -> fuchsia
• close < open and negative ΔV -> orange
• close < open but positive ΔV -> bright lime green
• Right side -> indication of used data (Tick/LTF data) + last ΔV
• labels (can be disabled)
Above 0 (only with Tick data): data from EVERY tick (ΔV ):
• first the amount of Volume (0 when the amount is very minimal)
• between brackets: price movement
Below 0:
• Σ V: sum of uV, dV and nV, for that bar
• Σ up: sum of uV for that bar
• Σ dn: sum of dV for that bar
• Σ nt: sum of nV for that bar
• Σ P: sum of price movement, for that bar (only at Tick data)
(At the right you'll see a new bar just started)
Here is a detail of the first second at opening:
🔹 Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)
Difference CVD based on Tick vs. LTF data :
(horizontal lines added for reference)
🔶 FEATURES
🔹 Minimal plotting of na values
Data window and status line only show what is applicable (tick or LTF data) to diminish clutter of data values:
The Tick option has a label above 0 which includes details of every Tick.
If data is added every tick, that label on a 10 minute chart will be filled beyond limitations pretty quickly (string max_length = 4096 limit).
To prevent the script stopping to execute, at a certain limit, this label will stop updating and show the message "Too much data".
The label below the 0-line won't reach that limit, so it will keep on updating.
Timeframes closer to 1 second will have less risk to reach that 4096 limit. Details will remain to show in this case.
🔹 Automatic label colour adaption when changing between dark/light mode values
Label background/text-colour will adapt according to the dark/light-mode by using chart.fg_color / chart.bg_color
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Data from: Ticks vs. LTF data
🔹 LTF: Lower Time-Frame for when LTF option is chosen: 1, 5, 10, 15, 30 Seconds or 1 minute
🔹 Also start when bar already has data: only for tick data -> when disabled calculations only start on a new bar.
🔹 CVD, Only show Cumulative Delta Volume: enable to just display CVD
🔹 Colours: colour at the right is for price/volume direction divergences
🔹 Label: choose what you want to display + size labels
🔹 0-line: The label under the 0-line sometimes goes below the chart. this can be adjusted with this setting.
Volume Delta Methods (Chart) [LuxAlgo]The Volume Delta Methods (Chart) aims at highlighting the relationship between Buying or Selling Pressure and Price by presenting Volume Delta , and multiple derivatives of volume delta such as Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) , Buy/Sell Volume , Total Volume , etc on top of the Main Price Chart .
The script uses two different intrabar (chart bars at a lower timeframe than the chart's) analyses to achieve the most approximate calculation of the volume delta and offers fully customizable visualization features using various types of charts such as line, area, baseline, candles, and histograms.
The script allows traders to see "within" the price bar, provides more transparency over a traditional volume histogram, and also allows users to monitor price and volume activity together.
🔶 USAGE
Volume delta is the difference between the buying volume and the selling volume, in other words, it is the net demand at a given bar allowing traders a more detailed insight when analyzing the market sentiment. A volume delta greater than 0 indicates more buying than selling pressure, whereas a volume delta less than 0 indicates more selling than buying pressure.
Volume delta plus total volume (regular volume) adds additional insight, where the total volume represents all the recorded trades for security that occurs in a given time interval. It is a measurement of the participation, enthusiasm, and interest in a given security.
Divergences occur when the polarity of the volume delta does not match the polarity of the price bar.
The users can enable the display of the numerical values of the volume delta.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is a way of using Volume Delta to measure an asset’s mid-to-long-term buy and sell pressure. It compares buying and selling volume over time and offers insights into market behavior at specific price points. Cumulative Volume Delta is effectively a continuation of the principles of Volume Delta but involves longer time periods and offers different trading signals.
Like the Volume Delta, the Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator measures the relationship between buy and sell pressure but does not focus on one specific candle in particular. Rather, the Cumulative Volume Delta takes the relative differences and combines them all over an extended time period.
Users have the ability Cumulative Volume Delta in various types of charts along with an optional smoothing line.
Placed above price bars options.
Interacting with price bar options helps to better identify CVD Divergences.
CVD Divergences
CVD reveals buying and selling trends that may or may not complement the price trend of the asset itself. Sometimes, price trends can run in contrast to trading behavior — sell volume can be dominant while the spot price is rising, and vice versa.
🔶 DETAILS
Theoretically, volume delta is calculated by taking the difference between the volume that traded at the ask price and the volume that traded at the bid price. The most precise calculation method uses tick data but requires huge amounts of data on historical bars, which usually limits the historical depth of charts. This indicator uses two different intrabar analysis methods for the volume delta calculation, where intrabars are chart bars at a lower timeframe than the chart's timeframe:
The logic used to assign intrabar volume to the "up" or "down".
- Buying/Selling pressure of the intrabar option (default)
(close - low) > (high - close) => UP
(close - low) < (high - close) => DOWN
(close - low) = (high - close) => close - previous close is used
- Polarity of the intrabar option
close > open => UP
close < open => DOWN
close = open => close - previous close is used
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters and performs calculations and presentations based on them, where detailed usage for each user-defined input parameter in indicator settings is provided with the related input's tooltip.
🔹 Calculation Settings
Calculation Method: Calculation method selection, available options 'Intrabar Buying/Selling Pressure' or 'Intrabar Polarity'.
Lower Timeframe Precision: Sets indicator precision, default option is 'Auto'.

Volume Flow Anatomy [Kodexius]Volume Flow Anatomy is a dynamic, multi-dimensional volume map that reconstructs how buy, sell, and “stealth” activity is distributed across price rather than just across time. Instead of relying on a static, session-based volume profile, it uses an exponentially decaying memory of recent bars to build a constantly evolving “anatomy” of the auction, where each price level carries an adaptive history of order flow.
The script separates buy vs. sell pressure, adds a third “Stealth Flow” dimension for low-volume price movement (ease of movement / divergence), and automatically derives POC, Value Area, imbalances, absorption zones, and classic profile shapes (D, P, b, B). This gives the trader a compact but highly information-dense map on the right side of the chart to read control (buyers vs. sellers), structure (balanced vs. trending vs. double distribution), and key reaction levels (support/resistance born from flow, not just wicks).
🔹 Features
🔸 Dynamic Lookback with Decay
- The script computes an effective lookback N from the Decay Factor and caps it with Max Lookback.
- Higher decay keeps more history; lower decay emphasizes the most recent flow.
- The profile continuously adapts as new bars are printed.
🔸 Price-Bucketed Flow Map
Each bucket accumulates:
- Sell Flow (sell pressure)
- Buy Flow (buy pressure)
- Stealth Flow (low-volume price movement)
- Box width at each bucket is proportional to the relative intensity of that component.
🔸 Stealth Flow (Low-Volume Price Movement)
- Measures close to close movement relative to volume, emphasizing price movement that occurs on comparatively low volume.
- Helps reveal hidden participation, inefficient moves, and areas that may be vulnerable to re-tests or reversions.
🔸 POC & 70% Value Area (VA)
- Identifies the Point of Control (price bucket with the highest total volume) over the effective lookback.
- Builds a 70% Value Area by expanding from POC towards the nearest high volume neighbors until 70% of the total volume is included.
- POC is drawn as a line over the analyzed range; VA is displayed as a shaded band in the profile area.
🔸 Market Profile Shape Detection
Splits the profile vertically into three zones (bottom / middle / top) and compares their volume distribution.
Classifies structure as:
- D-Shape (Balanced)
- P-Shape (Short Covering)
- b-Shape (Long Liquidation)
- B-Shape (Double Distribution)
Displays a shape label with color coded bias for quick auction context interpretation.
🔸 Imbalance Zones & Absorption
Imbalance: detects buckets where Buy Flow or Sell Flow exceeds the opposite side by at least Imbalance Ratio.
Absorption: flags zones with high volume but low price “ease”, where price is not moving much despite significant volume.
Extends these levels into horizontal zones, marking potential support/resistance and trap areas.
Bullish Imbalance Zone :
Bearish Imbalance Zone :
Absorption Zone :
🔸 Range Context & On-Chart Legend
Draws a Range Box covering the dynamically determined lookback (N bars), with a label displaying the effective bar count.
A bottom-right legend summarizes:
- Color keys for Buy / Sell / Stealth
- POC / VA status
- Bullish vs. Bearish dominance percentage

🔹 Calculations
1. Dynamic Lookback & Price Buckets
int N = math.min(int(4 / (1 - decayFactor) - 1), maxHistory)
float priceHigh = ta.highest(high, N)
float priceLow = ta.lowest(low, N)
float bucketSize = (priceHigh - priceLow) / bucketCount
The effective lookback N is derived from the Decay Factor, using the approximation 4 / (1 - decay) to capture roughly 99% of the decayed influence, then capped with maxHistory to control performance. Over that adaptive range, the script finds the highest and lowest prices and divides the band into bucketCount equal slices (bucketSize). Each slice is a price bucket that will accumulate volume-flow information.
2. Exponentially Decayed Volume Allocation
addValue(array profile, float weight, float minPrice, float maxPrice) =>
for j = 0 to bucketCount - 1
float bucketMin = priceLow + j * bucketSize
float bucketMax = bucketMin + bucketSize
float overlapMin = math.max(minPrice, bucketMin)
float overlapMax = math.min(maxPrice, bucketMax)
float overlapRange = overlapMax - overlapMin
if overlapRange > 0
profile.set(j, profile.get(j) * decayFactor + weight * overlapRange)
This function is the core engine of the indicator. For a given price span and intensity, it checks every bucket for overlap, distributes the weight proportionally to the overlapping range, and before adding new value, decays the existing bucket content by decayFactor. This results in an exponentially weighted profile: recent activity dominates, while older levels retain a gradually fading footprint.
3. POC and 70% Value Area
array totalProfile = array.new(bucketCount, 0)
for j = 0 to bucketCount - 1
float total = sellProfile.get(j) + buyProfile.get(j)
totalProfile.set(j, total)
if total > eaMax
eaMax := total
int pocIdx = 0
float pocVal = 0.0
for j = 0 to bucketCount - 1
if totalProfile.get(j) > pocVal
pocVal := totalProfile.get(j)
pocIdx := j
float totalSum = totalProfile.sum()
float targetSum = totalSum * 0.70
int vaLow = pocIdx
int vaHigh = pocIdx
float currentSum = pocVal
while currentSum < targetSum and (vaLow > 0 or vaHigh < bucketCount - 1)
float lowVal = vaLow > 0 ? totalProfile.get(vaLow - 1) : 0.0
float highVal = vaHigh < bucketCount - 1 ? totalProfile.get(vaHigh + 1) : 0.0
First, totalProfile is built as the sum of buy and sell flow per bucket, and eaMax (the maximum total) is tracked for later normalization. The POC bucket (pocIdx) is simply the index with the highest totalProfile value.
To compute the 70% Value Area, the algorithm starts at the POC bucket and expands outward, each step adding either the upper or lower neighbor depending on which has more volume. This continues until the cumulative volume reaches 70% of totalSum. The result is a volume-driven VA, not necessarily symmetric around POC, which more accurately represents where the market has truly traded.
4. Market Profile Shape Classification
float volTopThird = 0.0
float volMidThird = 0.0
float volBotThird = 0.0
int thirdIdx = int(bucketCount / 3)
for j = 0 to bucketCount - 1
float val = totalProfile.get(j)
if j < thirdIdx
volBotThird += val
else if j < thirdIdx * 2
volMidThird += val
else
volTopThird += val
float totalVolShape = totalProfile.sum()
string shapeStr = "D-Shape (Balanced)"
if (volTopThird > totalVolShape * 0.20) and (volBotThird > totalVolShape * 0.20) and (volMidThird < totalVolShape * 0.50)
shapeStr := "B-Shape (Double Dist)"
else
if pocIdx > bucketCount * 0.5 and volTopThird > volBotThird * 1.3
shapeStr := "P-Shape (Short Covering)"
else if pocIdx < bucketCount * 0.5 and volBotThird > volTopThird * 1.3
shapeStr := "b-Shape (Long Liquidation)"
else
shapeStr := "D-Shape (Balanced)"
The profile is split into bottom, middle, and top thirds. The script compares how much volume is concentrated in each and combines that with the relative location of POC. If both extremes are heavy and the middle light, it labels a B-Shape (double distribution). If the POC is high and the top dominates the bottom, it’s a P-Shape (short covering). If the POC is low and the bottom dominates, it’s a b-Shape (long liquidation). Otherwise, it defaults to a D-Shape (balanced). This provides a quick, at-a-glance assessment of auction structure.
5. Imbalances, Absorption & Zones
bool isBuyImb = showImb and sVal > 0 and (bVal / sVal >= imbRatio)
bool isSellImb = showImb and bVal > 0 and (sVal / bVal >= imbRatio)
float volRatio = eaMax > 0 ? tVal / eaMax : 0
float stRatio = esmRange > 0 ? (stVal - esmMin) / esmRange : 1.0
bool isAbsorp = showAbsorp and volRatio > 0.6 and stRatio < 0.25
if showImbZone
if isSellImb
zoneBoxes.push(box.new(bar_index - N + 1, bucketHi, bar_index + 1, bucketLo, ...))
if isBuyImb
zoneBoxes.push(box.new(bar_index - N + 1, bucketHi, bar_index + 1, bucketLo, ...))
if isAbsorp
zoneBoxes.push(box.new(bar_index - N + 1, bucketHi, bar_index + 1, bucketLo, ...))
Imbalances are identified where one side’s volume (buy or sell) exceeds the other by at least Imbalance Ratio. These buckets are marked as buy or sell imbalance zones, indicating aggressive participation from one side.
Absorption is detected by combining a high volume ratio (volRatio) with a low normalized stealth ratio (stRatio). High volume with limited price movement suggests that opposing orders are absorbing flow at that level. Both imbalance and absorption buckets are extended into horizontal zones from the start of the lookback to the current bar, visually emphasizing key support/resistance and liquidity areas.
6. Building Buy, Sell & Stealth Profiles
sellProfile := array.new(bucketCount, 0)
buyProfile := array.new(bucketCount, 0)
stealthProfile := array.new(bucketCount, 0)
Three arrays are used to store Sell Flow, Buy Flow, and Stealth Flow. Bars are processed from oldest to newest so that decay is applied in correct chronological order. For each bar, a volume density (volume / range) is calculated and distributed across the candle range. Bull candles feed buyProfile, bear candles feed sellProfile.
Stealth Flow computes the close-to-close move between consecutive bars, scaled by 1 / (1 + volume). Big moves on low volume produce high stealth values, which are then allocated across the move’s price span into stealthProfile. This yields a three-layer profile per price level: directional volume and stealthy price movement.
Volume Pressure OscillatorThe Volume Pressure Oscillator (VPO) is a momentum-based indicator that measures the directional pressure of cumulative volume delta (CVD) combined with price efficiency. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with readings above 50 indicating net buying pressure and readings below 50 indicating net selling pressure.
The indicator is designed to identify the strength and sustainability of volume-driven trends while remaining responsive during consolidation periods.
How the Indicator Works
The VPO analyzes volume flow by examining price action at lower timeframes to build a Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD). For each chart bar, the indicator looks at intrabar price movements to classify volume as either buying volume or selling volume. These classifications are accumulated into a running total that tracks net directional volume.
The indicator then measures the momentum of this CVD over both short-term and longer-term periods, providing responsiveness to recent changes while maintaining awareness of the broader trend. These momentum readings are normalized using percentile ranking, which creates a stable 0-100 scale that works consistently across different instruments and market conditions.
A key feature is the extreme zone persistence mechanism. When the indicator enters extreme zones (above 80 or below 20), it maintains elevated readings as long as volume pressure continues in the same direction. This allows the VPO to stay in extreme zones during strong trends rather than quickly reverting to neutral, making it useful for identifying sustained volume pressure rather than just temporary spikes.
What Makes This Indicator Different
While many indicators measure volume or volume delta, the VPO specifically measures how aggressively CVD is currently changing and whether that pressure is being sustained. It's the difference between knowing "more volume has accumulated on the buy side" versus "buying pressure is intensifying right now and shows signs of continuation."
1. Focus on CVD Momentum, Not CVD Levels
Most CVD indicators display the cumulative volume delta as a line that trends up or down indefinitely. The VPO is fundamentally different - it measures the slope of CVD rather than the absolute level. This transforms CVD from an unbounded cumulative metric into a bounded 0-100 oscillator that shows the intensity and direction of current volume pressure, not just the historical accumulation.
2. Designed to Stay in Extremes During Trends
Unlike traditional oscillators that treat extreme readings (above 80 or below 20) as overbought/oversold reversal signals, the VPO is engineered to oscillate within extreme zones during strong trends. When sustained buying or selling pressure exists, the indicator remains elevated (e.g., 80-95 or 5-20) rather than quickly reverting to neutral. This makes it useful for trend continuation identification rather than exclusively for reversal trading.
3. Percentile-Based Normalization
The VPO uses percentile ranking over a lookback window, which provides consistent behavior across different instruments, timeframes, and volatility regimes without constant recalibration.
4. Dual-Timeframe Momentum Synthesis
The indicator simultaneously considers short-term CVD momentum (responsive to recent changes) and longer-term CVD momentum (tracking trend direction), weighted and combined with a slow-moving trend bias. This multi-timeframe approach helps it stay responsive in ranging markets while maintaining context during trends.
How to Use the Indicator
Understanding the Zones:
80-100 (Strong Buying Pressure): CVD momentum is strongly positive. In trending markets, the indicator oscillates within this zone rather than immediately reverting to neutral. This suggests sustained accumulation and trend continuation probability.
60-80 (Moderate Buying): Positive volume pressure but not extreme. Suitable for identifying pullback entry opportunities within uptrends.
40-60 (Neutral Zone): Volume pressure is balanced or unclear. No strong directional edge from volume. Often seen during consolidation or trend transitions.
20-40 (Moderate Selling): Negative volume pressure developing. May indicate distribution or downtrend continuation setups.
0-20 (Strong Selling Pressure): CVD momentum is strongly negative. During downtrends, sustained readings in this zone suggest continued distribution and downside follow-through probability.
Practical Applications:
Trend Confirmation: When price makes new highs/lows, check if VPO confirms with similarly elevated readings. Divergences (price making new highs while VPO fails to reach prior highs) may indicate weakening momentum.
Range Trading: During consolidation, the VPO typically oscillates between 30-70. Readings toward the low end of the range (30-40) may present accumulation opportunities, while readings at the high end (60-70) may indicate distribution zones.
Extreme Persistence: If VPO reaches 90+ or drops below 10, this indicates exceptional volume pressure. Rather than fading these extremes immediately, monitor whether the indicator stays elevated. Sustained extreme readings suggest strong trend continuation potential.
Context with Price Action: The VPO is most effective when combined with price action or other orderflow indicators. Use the indicator to gauge whether volume is confirming or contradicting.
What the Indicator Does NOT Do:
It does not provide specific entry or exit signals
It does not predict future price direction
It does not guarantee profitable trades
It should not be used as a standalone trading system
Settings Explanation
Momentum Period (Default: 14)
This parameter controls the lookback period for CVD rate-of-change calculations.
Lower values (5-10): Make the indicator more responsive to recent volume changes. Useful for shorter-term trading and more active oscillation. May produce more whipsaws in choppy markets.
Default value (14): Provides balanced responsiveness while filtering out most noise. Suitable for swing trading and daily timeframe analysis.
Higher values (20-50): Create smoother readings and focus on longer-term volume trends. Better for position trading and reducing false signals, but with slower reaction to genuine changes in volume pressure.
Important Notes:
This indicator requires intrabar data to function properly. On some instruments or timeframes where lower timeframe data is not available, the indicator may not display.
The indicator uses request.security_lower_tf() which has a limit of intrabars. On higher timeframes, this provides extensive history, but on very low timeframes (<1-minute charts), the indicator may only cover limited historical bars.
Volume data quality varies by exchange and instrument. The indicator's effectiveness depends on accurate volume reporting from the data feed.
Volume Profile Area [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Volume Profile Area is an advanced profiling tool that calculates and visualizes the value area within a chosen period’s volume distribution. It first builds a main profile of the entire range, then constructs a secondary profile inside the defined value area, allowing traders to examine market balance and key trading zones in greater detail.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Volume Profile – Distributes traded volume across price levels to highlight areas of market activity.
Value Area (VA) – The price range containing a chosen percentage of total volume (commonly 50–70%).
Point of Control (PoC) – The price level with the highest traded volume, often acting as a magnet for price.
Nested Profiles – A profile inside the VA adds a second layer of precision, showing where liquidity clusters within the “fair value” zone.
🔵 FEATURES
Main Profile – Full distribution of volume over the selected lookback period.
Secondary Profile – Built only inside the VA of the main profile, highlighting intrabalance structure.
Customizable PoC Selection – Choose between showing the PoC of the
Main Profile ,
the Area Profile ,
their Average ,
or None .
Dynamic Value Area Levels – Automatically plots VAL (Value Area Low) and VAH (Value Area High) with labels.
Overlay Toggles – Show/hide range extremes, VA lines, or PoCs for a cleaner chart view.
Visual Profiles – Main profile shaded in darker blue; the VA profile inside is lighter for clear separation.
Automatic Scaling – Profiles adapt to period highs/lows and auto-adjust bins for consistent resolution.
Volume Labels – PoCs can display traded volume, giving numeric confirmation of liquidity concentration.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Set the Period to define how many bars to include in the main profile.
Adjust the Value Area % to control how much volume defines the VA (e.g., 50% by default).
Pick your PoC option: Main , Area , or Average , depending on focus.
Use VAH/VAL lines as support/resistance levels where most trading occurred.
Compare reactions at Main vs VA PoC levels to spot potential breakouts or mean reversions.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Volume Profile Area extends traditional profiling by nesting a secondary VA profile inside the main distribution. This dual-layer approach reveals not just where the market was active overall, but where liquidity concentrated within the “fair value” zone—powerful for refining entries, exits, and risk placement across intraday and swing horizons.
