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:
If you are uncertain about specific market trends, indicators, or economic factors, don't hesitate to seek guidance from financial advisors or professionals. 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.
Volumedelta
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.
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'.

Introduction
Velocity = Change in Position over time
Acceleration = Change in Velocity over time
For this indicator, Position is synonymous with the Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) value. What the indicator attempts to do is to determine when the rate of acceleration of buying or selling volume is changing in either or buying or selling direction in a meaningful way.
Calculations
The CVD, upon which these changes is calculated using candle bodies and wicks. For a red candle, buying volume is calculated by multiplying the volume by the spread percentage of the average of the top and bottom wicks, while Selling Volume is calculated multiplying the volume by the spread percentage of the average of the top and bottom wicks - in addition to the spread percentage of the candle body.
For a green candle, buying volume is calculated by multiplying the volume by the spread percentage of the average of the top and bottom wicks - plus the spread percentage of the candle body - while Selling Volume is calculated using only the spread percentage average of the top and bottom wicks.
How to Interpret
The difference between the buying volume and selling volume is the source of what generates the red and green bars on the indicator. But, more specifically, this indicator uses an exponential moving average of these volumes (14 EMA by default) to determine that actual bar size. The change in this value indicates the velocity of volume and, ultimately, the red and green bars on the indicator.
- When the bar height is zero, that means that there is no velocity, which indicates either a balance between buyers and sellers, or very little volume.
- When the bar height remains largely unchanged from period to period - and not zero - it means that the velocity of volume is constant in one direction. That direction is indicated by the color of the bar. Buyers are dominating when the bars are green, and sellers are dominating when the bars are red.
- When the bar height increases, regardless of bar color, it means that volume is accelerating in a buying direction.
- When the bar height decreases, regardless of bar color, it means that volume is accelerating in a selling direction.
The white line represents the moving average of the bar values, while the red and white - and green and white - dots show when the moving average has been breached by the Cumulative Volume Delta value AND the price has broken the 7 EMA (which is user editable). As with most moving averages, a breach can indicate a move in a bearish or bullish direction, and the sensitivity can be adjusted for differing market conditions
Other Usage Notes and Limitations
For better use of the signal, consider the following,
1. Volume moving below the moving average can indicate that the volume may be ready to exit an overbought condition, especially if the bars were making lower highs prior to the signal - regardless of bar color.
3. Volume moving above the moving average can indicate that the volume may be ready to exit an oversold condition, especially if the bars were making higher lows prior to the signal - regardless of bar color.
Additionally, a green dot that occurs with a positive (green) Cumulative Volume Delta can indicate a buying condition, while a red dot that occurs with a negative (red) Cumulative Volume Delta can indicate a selling condition. What this means is that buying or selling momentum briefly went against the direction of buying or selling Cumulative Volume Delta , but was not strong enough to change the buying or selling direction. In cases like this, once the volume begins to accelerate again in the direction of the buying or selling volume - indicated by a red or green dot - then the price is more likely to favor the direction of the Cumulative Volume Delta and its corresponding acceleration.
Although a red or green signal can indicate a change in direction, this script cannot predict the magnitude or duration of the change. It is best used with accompanying indicators that can be used to confirm a direction change, such as a moving average, or a supply or demand range.
CVD+ - Multi Symbol Cumulative Volume DeltaEdit of TradingView's LTF CVD
TradingView's CVD is already the most accurate CVD on the platform because of the LTF data. The purpose of the edit is to provide the ability to compare volume flow between multiple exchanges, futures & spot, multiple symbols or any other potential use case. All in single layout or even a single pane.
Added features:
- Option to manually select a symbol from which to calculate the LTF CVD
- Option to normalize the selected symbol's CVD to the chart's symbol's CVD (Useful when you want to compare futures and spot on the same pane)
- Label that displays the selected symbol's name and exchange
- Changed presets to plot the CVD line as the predetermined option
All of TV's original features remain the same.
Volume Suite - By Leviathan (CVD, Volume Delta, Relative Volume)Volume Suite is an all-in-one script that includes several volume-based indicators such as CVD, Volume Delta, Relative Volume, Buy/Sell Volume, Cumulative Relative Volume and more. Additionally, it offers fully customisable appearance and features for improved data visualization, such as highlights for high volume activity, small price changes with high volume, or large price changes with low volume and more.
Data available in version 1:
- Volume Delta
Volume Delta is the net difference between Buy Volume and Sell Volume at a given bar. Positive Delta indicates that Buy Volume > Sell Volume, while Negative Delta means that Sell Volume > Buy Volume. As there is not way to get tick data on Tradingview, calculating Volume Delta is improvised by using the direction of lower timeframe candles and their volume.
- Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)
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. It can be used for trend strength analysis, divergence strategies, sentiment, etc.
- Buy/Sell Volume
Buy and Sell Volume provides an insight into volume activity in a given bar by estimating the buying/selling volume based on the direction of lower timeframe candles and their volume.
- Relative Volume
Relative Volume is used to compare current trading volume to past trading volume over a given period. For instance, a relative volume of 1.0 indicates that volume is at an average level, while a relative volume of 2.0 suggests that the volume is twice as high as the average.
- Cumulative Relative Volume (CRVOL)
CRVOL is a running total/cumulation of Relative Volume values, where RVOL at close>open gets added to the sum and RVOL at close<open gets subtracted from the sum. It can be used for trend strength analysis, divergence strategies, sentiment, etc.

Open Interest Profile [Fixed Range] - By LeviathanThis script generates an aggregated Open Interest profile for any user-selected range and provides several other features and tools, such as OI Delta Profile, Positive Delta Levels, OI Heatmap, Range Levels, OIWAP, POC and much more.
The indicator will help you find levels of interest based on where other market participants are opening and closing their positions. This provides a deeper insight into market activity and serves as a foundation for various different trading strategies (trapped traders, supply and demand, support and resistance, liquidity gaps, imbalances,liquidation levels, etc). Additionally, this indicator can be used in conjunction with other tools such as Volume Profile.
Open Interest (OI) is a key metric in derivatives markets that refers to the total number of unsettled or open contracts. A contract is a mutual agreement between two parties to buy or sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price. Each contract consists of a long side and a short side, with one party consenting to buy (long) and the other agreeing to sell (short). The party holding the long position will profit from an increase in the asset's price, while the one holding the short position will profit from the price decline. Every long position opened requires a corresponding short position by another market participant, and vice versa. Although there might be an imbalance in the number of accounts or traders holding long and short contracts, the net value of positions held on each side remains balanced at a 1:1 ratio. For instance, an Open Interest of 100 BTC implies that there are currently 100 BTC worth of longs and 100 BTC worth of shorts open in the market. There might be more traders on one side holding smaller positions, and fewer on the other side with larger positions, but the net value of positions on both sides is equivalent - 100 BTC in longs and 100 BTC in shorts (1:1). Consider a scenario where a trader decides to open a long position for 1 BTC at a price of $30k. For this long order to be executed, a counterparty must take the opposite side of the contract by placing a short order for 1 BTC at the same price of $30k. When both long and short orders are matched and executed, the Open Interest increases by 1 BTC, indicating the introduction of this new contract to the market.
The meaning of fluctuations in Open Interest:
- OI Increase - signifies new positions entering the market (both longs and shorts).
- OI Decrease - indicates positions exiting the market (both longs and shorts).
- OI Flat - represents no change in open positions due to low activity or a large number of contract transfers (contracts changing hands instead of being closed).
Typically, we monitor Open Interest in the form of its running value, either on a chart or through OI Delta histograms that depict the net change in OI for each price bar. This indicator enhances Open Interest analysis by illustrating the distribution of changes in OI on the price axis rather than the time axis (akin to Volume Profiles). While Volume Profile displays the volume that occurred at a given price level, the Open Interest Profile offers insight into where traders were opening and closing their positions.

Relative VolumeHello traders,
"There's nothing new on Wall Street" is an age-old saying that still shows its relevance in modern day financial markets; volume still serves as a valuable tool for any trader just as it did for those that came and succeeded before us; in order to succeed in modern day markets one has to take it up a notch and dabble in complicated topics, like math. Now I dunno about you reader but I’m not keen on sitting around all day just to watch numbers on a screen; it’s pretty important to add some color into your life before it becomes dull but how can someone add colors into their trading toolkit as an aid rather than bother? With a bit of help from 3 other amazing open-source indicators you too can become a statistics enjoyer by combining math and colors to make pattern recognition much more intuitive and offering more peace of mind when trading. “Sir but how?”, glad you didn’t ask, it helps with simplifying statistics, in this case a Gaussian bellcurve
“HUH?”, you say? Alright class, Gaussian bellcurves for math dislikers 101 is in session
- Imagine that we have a bunch of numbers that we want to graph. We could just draw a line and plot the numbers on it, but that might not be very interesting.
- Instead, we can use the shape of a bell to show how many of each number we have.
- Let's say we have a lot of people and we want to graph how tall they are. We would start by making a line from the shortest person to the tallest person, and then we would draw the bell shape around the line.
- The bell shape is called a "Gaussian Bell Curve," and it shows us how many people are a certain height.
- In the middle of the bell, where it's the widest, we have the most people who are about average height. As we move to the sides of the bell, the curve gets lower because there are fewer people who are really tall or really short.
The bell curve discussed is the main idea for the candle coloring component of this indicator as being able to analyze the distribution of an entire dataset, in this case volume, can alert us when volume/participation in the market is away from its average using color, and therefore an opportunity could be present. Fair warning, it’s important to not strictly focus on volume as volume is meant to be confluence to the current structure of the market rather than causing tunnel vision.
Why 3 indicators to combine?
It starts with the RVOL by Mik3Christ3ns3n indicator as the backbone by calculating the average volume over a specified period of time, and then compares each new volume value to this average to determine whether it is above or below the average. The indicator then normalizes the volume data and calculates the z-score/standard deviation to determine whether the volume is within normal range or is an anomaly beyond a specified threshold which can also be set into an alert to aid in eyeing possible opportunities.
The code also includes Candle Coloring by Morty as it calculates a function to get the z-score for the size of the candle's body, and then compares it to the z-score for volume to determine whether the body size is a factor in the price action.
Finally, the code plots the anomalies and the normalized volume data on the chart using the first RVOL indicator mentioned, and colors the bars of the chart based on whether they are within normal range or are anomalies which comes from using code from veryfid's relative volume indicator.
Overall, this custom technical indicator is best used to identify unusual changes in trading volume, which may indicate potential price movements in the underlying.
How about some examples?
This first example is for my scalpers wanting to get in and out but not having much of an idea where or let alone how; using a tool like VWAP can be great for determining the area value to execute mean reversion trades once a speculator spots a colored candle anomaly at standard deviation band. Works best when VWAP is flat as it signals lack of conviction from both bulls and bears
This second example is for my fire and forget intraweek swing traders who want to execute a higher timeframe trend-following bias. A speculator starting 2023 off notices that the negative sentiment around Binance from late last year has quieted down and has conviction in upside after BTC began an uptrend as monthly VWAP (right chart) has began sloping up as well as a rally with momentum shown with the blue colored candle so the trader waits wait for a pullback for entry. On the chart to the left of the 4H the speculator notices a pullback into the area of interest to do business so a limit bid is left to enter for continued upside in Bitcoin through January 2023 just by keeping things simple
That’s really the main purpose of this indicator: simplicity of statistics for confluence using volume
Volume precedes price and price moves only for narrative to follow- why wait for your subjective Twitter timeline to give you a biased narrative to trade when you can use objective analysis by combining statistics and colors to allow for a cleaner execution process
“But what about risk management?” Glad you didn’t ask reader!
One last example then, we meet our trend following trader again feeling euphoric so they know profit taking season is coming soon but wants to leave emotion out of it. How to go about it? Same idea as our last trend following example: we see on the 4h chart to the right side shows Bitcoin lose and trade back within the 2nd standard deviation of quarterly VWAP which is telling our speculator that the uptrend has broken on top of which notices on the 30 minute chart on the left that aggressive market buyers have been steadily absorbed by limit sellers on multiple occasions of retesting 30,500 shown with the green colored candles and volume bars below, time to sell.
Turns out that selling was proactive risk management because price dumped thereafter
Hope this explanation gave you some useful insights on using statistics as colors from cherrypicked examples, remember that just because my examples are cherrypicked doesn’t invalidate these concepts at all as the market only does two things, initiate aggressive auctions and respond passively to auctions. This tool makes for seeing where that initiative aggressive activity is happening much simpler to deduce if others will respond to an anomaly of initiative aggressive activity or if the aggression will continue.
If there’s just one thing you take from this- simplicity above all, cheers and good luck
Tape (Time and Sales)OVERVIEW
This indicator is a synthesized "Tape" (aka. Time and Sales) from real time market data. It's specifically designed to be performant, expediting trading insights and decisions.
The table contains color-coded price action, volume size, and a timestamp data for each chart update. Because chart updates are independent of exchange orders, 1 chart update may combine more than 1 exchange and/or order. Even so, you're able to see very small and fast order flow changes, made possible by measuring real time volume differentials, and correlating them with price action.
Real time volume differentials are required for this indicator to be most useful. This is not ideal for historical analysis or TradingViews Replay feature.
INPUTS
You can can configure:
Table Position and Text Size
The Timestamp (visibility, format, timezone)
The number of lines to print
Volume Parameters (minimum size, large sizes, decimal precision)
Highlighting and Enlarging large sized prints
All the colors

Ectopic Bar by Moti RakamEctopic Bar is an indicator that highlights a pin-bar candle that has divergence in it's shape and volume delta. To find volume delta, code of standard Up/Down volume indicator has been used.
PIN BAR : pin bar are marked by using Close Range option parameter. Default value is set to 0.35 which implies any candle that closes in the 35% of its high/low will be considered a pin bar (of course the code also ensures that rest of the bar body is only a wick).
HOW IT WORKS:
Up/Down volume variables "Up Volume" and "Down Volume" are checked against the shape of the pin bar to find an ectopic situation. For example, if a bullish pin bar candle (a bullish hammer) has more sell volume than buy volume, that's an ectopic situation. The bullish hammer shows a buying push from the bottom of the wick, instead the up/down volume indicator shows there were more sell orders than buy orders. Hence the ectopic situation. Similarly, an inverted hammer (a bearish hammer) in general should have more sell volume, but instead if it has more buying volume, the indicator highlights it as an ectopic bar.
Ectopic Bars are painted in yellow colour.
Up/Down Volume + DeltaThis simple script is a modification of Tradingview's Up/Down Volume. In this case the delta between the buys and sells is plotted in columns style above the regular up/down volume columns. This gives a better visual of the dominant volume and is useful to spot divergences in tops and bottoms.
The indicators uses data from lower timeframe volumes. By default the lowest timeframe it will use is 1m, but for those that have a premium account you can try using a custom LTF set to seconds when scalping on the 1m chart.
Enjoy :)
Delta Ladder [Kioseff Trading]Hello!
This script presents volume delta data in various forms!
Features
Classic mode: Volume delta boxes oriented to the right of the bar (sell closer / buy further)
On Bar mode: Volume delta boxes oriented on the bar (sell left / buy right)
Pure Ladder mode: Pure volume delta ladder
PoC highlighting
Color-coordinated delta boxes. Marginal volume differences are substantially shaded while large volume differences are lightly shaded.
Volume delta boxes can be merged and delta values removed to generate a color-only canvas reflecting vol. delta differences in price blocks.
Price bars can be split up to 497 times - allowing for greater precision.
Total volume delta for the bar and timestamp included
The image above shows Classic mode - delta blocks are oriented left/right contingent on positive/negative values!
The image above shows the same price sequence; however, delta blocks are superimposed on the price bar. Left-side blocks reflect negative delta while right-side blocks reflect positive delta! To apply this display method - select "On Bar" for the "Data Display Method" setting!
The image above shows "Pure Ladder" mode. Delta blocks remain color-coordinated; however, all delta blocks retain the same x-axis as the price bar they were calculated for!
Additionally, you can select to remove the delta values and merge the delta boxes to generate a color-based canvas indicative of volume delta at traded price levels!
The image above shows the same price sequence; however, the "Volume Assumption" setting is activated.
When active, the indicator assumes a 60/ 40 split when a level is traded at and only one metric - "buy volume" or "sell volume" is recorded. This means there shouldn't be any levels recorded where "buy volume" is greater than 0 and "sell volume" equals 0 and vice versa. While this assumption was performed arbitrarily, it may help better replicate volume delta and OI delta calculations seen on other charting platforms.
This option is configurable; you can select to have the script not assume a 60/ 40 split and instead record volume "as is" at the corresponding price level!
I plan to roll out additional features for the indicator - particularly tick-based price blocks! Stay tuned (:
Thank you!
Cumulative Volume Delta [Aggregated]This Indicator is known as Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), and it represents the total difference between buying and selling pressure.
This indicator use intrabar analysis to strike a balance between the most straightforward and accurate approaches of computing volume delta.
Intrabar analysis is the most accurate method to determine volume delta on historical bars on our charts when TradingView does not currently have historical tick data available.
What is included in the indicator:
Candle Type CVD
Line Type CVD
Aggregated Data which is derived from different exchanges
● Binance
● Bybit
● OKX
● Delta
● WooNetwork
You can choose between Aggregated Data or Single Data by choice.
Aggregated Data - Gathered Data from multiple exchanges which is summarize and became one.
Single Data - Data on your current chart.
Aggregated Data for CVD is still limited to BTC pair as of the moment. The indicator automatically switches to Single Data Type if the opened chart is not a BTC pair.
Candle Colors are fully customizable just like the Tradingview candle settings.
This indicator is mostly compatible to all Crypto.
NOTE: Most code is derived from my library to keep everything neat and clean.
BTC Net Volume (Spot) (by JaggedSoft, fixed by SLN)• WHAT:
This indicator plots the aggregated net volume delta of BTC spot pairs from 8 exchanges over the last 60 periods (default settings).
Tracks the following pairs:
"BINANCE:BTCUSDT"
"BITFINEX:BTCUSD"

I don't pretend to be the best choice for calculating CVD , Delta and Liquidations, the calculations are chosen to be optimal from what I have seen and know.
If you have any ideas what to add to my work to add more sources or make calculations cooler, suggest in DM .
Igniting CandlesDisplays (and alerts) abrupt changes in volume, by default it compares previous candle volume to the current one but average volume over custom look-back period can be specified. Simply adjust filter to the volume change (or average volume) required before visual indication and alert will fire.
The theory is that large changes in volume forecast the future movement; certainly combine this indicator with other tools to build a more sound trading plan.
Open Interest Profile (OI)- By LeviathanThis script implements the concept of Open Interest Profile, which can help you analyze the activity of traders and identify the price levels where they are opening/closing their positions. This data can serve as a confluence for finding the areas of support and resistance , targets and placing stop losses. OI profiles can be viewed in the ranges of days, weeks, months, Tokyo sessions, London sessions and New York sessions.
A short introduction to Open Interest
Open Interest is a metric that measures the total amount of open derivatives contracts in a specific market at a given time. A valid contract is formed by both a buyer who opens a long position and a seller who opens a short position. This means that OI represents the total value of all open longs and all open shorts, divided by two. For example, if Open Interest is showing a value of $1B, it means that there is $1B worth of long and $1B worth of short contracts currently open/unsettled in a given market.
OI increasing = new long and short contracts are entering the market
OI decreasing = long and short contracts are exiting the market
OI unchanged = the net amount of positions remains the same (no new entries/exits or just a transfer of contracts occurring)
About this indicator
*This script is basically a modified version of my previous "Market Sessions and Volume Profile by @LeviathanCapital" indicator but this time, profiles are generated from Tradingview Open Interest data instead of volume (+ some other changes).
The usual representation of OI shows Open Interest value and its change based on time (for a particular day, time frame or each given candle). This indicator takes the data and plots it in a way where you can see the OI activity (change in OI) based on price levels. To put it simply, instead of observing WHEN (time) positions are entering/exiting the market, you can now see WHERE (price) positions are entering/exiting the market. This is the same concept as when it comes to Volume and Volume profile and therefore, similar strategies and ways of understanding the given data can be applied here. You can even combine the two to gain an edge (eg. high OI increase + Volume Profile showing dominant market selling = possible aggressive shorts taking place)
Green nodes = OI increase
Red nodes = OI decrease
A cluster of large green nodes can be used for support and resistance levels (*trapped traders theory) or targets (lots of liquidations and stop losses above/below), OI Profile gaps can present an objective for the price to fill them (liquidity gaps, imbalances, inefficiencies, etc), and more.
Indicator settings
1. Session/Lookback - Choose the range from where the OI Profile will be generated
2. OI Profile Mode - Mode 1 (shows only OI increase), Mode 2 (shows both OI increase and decrease), Mode 3 (shows OI decrease on left side and OI increase on the right side).
3. Show OI Value Area - Shows the area where most OI activity took place (useful as a range or S/R level )
4. Show Session Box - Shows the box around chosen sessions/lookback
5. Show Profile - Show/hide OI Profile
6. Show Current Session - Show/hide the ongoing session
7. Show Session Labels - Show/hide the text labels for each session
8. Resolution - The higher the value, the more refined a profile is, but fewer profiles are shown on the chart
9. OI Value Area % - Choose the percentage of VA (same as in Volume Profile's VA)
10. Smooth OI Data - Useful for assets that have very large spikes in OI over large bars, helps create better profiles
11. OI Increase - Pick the color of OI increase nodes in the profile
12. OI Decrease - Pick the color of OI decrease nodes in the profile
13. Value Area Box - Pick the color of the Value Area Box
14. Session Box Thickness - Pick the thickness of the lines surrounding the chosen sessions
Advice
The indicator calculates the profile based on candles - the more candles you can show, the better profile will be formed. This means that it's best to view most sessions on timeframes like 15min or lower. The only exception is the Monthly profile, where timeframes above 15min should be used. Just take a few minutes and switch between timeframes and sessions and you will figure out the optimal settings.
This is the first version of Open Interest Profile script so please understand that it will be improved in future updates.
Thank you for your support.
** Some profile generation elements are inspired by @LonesomeTheBlue's volume profile script
CVD Ichimoku(s)ENGLISH
What is this indicator?
This is a combination of two indicators: the CVD - Cumulative Volume Delta Candles published by TradingView (version v3 2022.07.11) with two Ichimoku clouds: one for the current time frame and another for a bigger time frame.
The user of the indicator can define that bigger time frame with a multiplier. By default it multiplies x6 the current TF (for example, if you watch at the 1 hour time frame the second kumo belongs to 6 hour TF).
Additionaly, an orange line replicates the senko span A without displacement. It is extra layer of visual information that can be hidded from settings.
How it should be used?
Delta Volume indicators can be hard to read. This format gives the trader an overview of where the agressive buyers/sellers are in relation to past market orders. And relative to price if used in combination with the classic Ichimoku indicator on price. I recommend to use it as a support for your ideas applying Ichimoku's calculations deep knowledge.
CATALÀ*
Què és aquest indicador?
És una combinació de dos indicadors: el CVD - Cumulative Volume Delta Candles publicat per TradingView (versió v3 2022.07.11) amb dos Ichimoku clouds: on pel time frame actual i un altre per un time frame superior.
L'usuari de l'indicador pot definir aquest time frame superior mitjançant un multiplicador. Per defecte multiplica x6 el TF actual (per exemple, si uses l'indicador al time frame d'1 hora, el segon kumo correspondrà al TF de 6 hores).
Adicionalment hi ha una línia taronja que replica el senko span A sense desplaçament. És una capa extra d'informació visual que pot ser amagada des de la configuració.
Com s'ha de fer servir?
Els indicadors de Delta Volume poden ser difícils de llegir. Aquest format dona al tradejador una visió global d'on són els compradors/venedors agressius en relació al mercat d'ordres passat. I relatiu al preu en combinació amb el clàssic indicdor Ichimoku sobre preu. Recomano usar-lo com a suport per les teves idees aplicant un profund coneixement dels càlculs d'Ichimoku.
