Volume Spike IndicatorHello dear traders,
Today we're discussing an indicator I've coded: the Volume Spike Indicator (VSI).
The indicator isn't a groundbreaking invention and certainly not a novelty. Nevertheless, I haven't seen this version of the indicator on TradingView before, so I'd like to introduce it.
1. The Origin of the Idea:
We're all familiar with volume charts: A volume chart visually represents the trading activity for a specific asset over a certain period, indicating the total number of shares or contracts traded.
We also know that volume spikes can significantly impact the market. A volume spike represents an extreme anomaly, a day, week, or month with an extraordinary amount of trading. However, recognizing these spikes in practice isn't always straightforward. What constitutes high volume? How do we define and identify it? The answers to these questions aren't easy.
It's commonly said that a volume spike could be identified if the volume is 25% more than the average of the two weeks prior, but how do you measure this 25%? It's not always easy to calculate, especially in real-time.
This challenge led me to develop the concept into an indicator.
How Does It Work?
Imagine being able to "feel" the market's energy like a surfer feels the ocean. The VSI does something similar by examining trading volume and comparing it to what has been typical over the past few weeks. Here's a quick look at the magic behind it:
Step 1: Establishing the Baseline: We start by establishing a baseline, i.e., the average trading volume over a given period. Let's use the last 10 days as the default setting. We choose 10 days because, in the traditional stock market, 10 days represent two weeks if you subtract weekends. This gives us a fixed line to compare against.
Step 2: Recognizing Peaks: Next, we look for days when the trading volume significantly exceeds this average. The size of the jump is where you have a say. You can set a threshold, such as 25%, to define what you consider a volume spike.
Step 3: The Calculation: This is where the math comes into play. We calculate the percentage change in today's volume compared to the average volume of the last 10 days. For example, if today's volume is 30% above the average and you've set your threshold at 25%, the VSI will recognize this as a spike.
Step 4: Visual Cue: These spikes are then plotted on a graph, with each spike represented as a bar. The height of the bar indicates the spike's percentage size, so you can see at a glance how significant a spike is.
Step 5: Intuitive Color Coding: For quick analysis, the VSI employs a color-coding system. Exceptionally high peaks, such as those exceeding a 100% increase, are highlighted in blue to emphasize their importance. Other peaks are shown in red, creating a visual hierarchy for quick volume data interpretation.
Why This Matters:
Identifying these spikes can help pinpoint the beginning or end of a trend. The idea is that when trading peaks at a certain level, there might be no more buyers or sellers willing to engage at that price level. Volume peaks, and a reversal is likely imminent. It's a simple yet effective concept. Therefore, it's crucial to use this indicator in the context of the trend, as not every spike carries the same significance.
Customizable:
The beauty of the VSI lies in its flexibility. Trading futures? You might want to adjust the averaging period to 14 days to better suit your market. You have full control over the settings to tailor them to your trading style.
Interpreting the Figures:
A positive percentage indicates a volume spike above the average – the higher the percentage, the more significant the spike.
If the percentage exceeds a certain threshold (which you can set, e.g., 25%), it signals a volume spike, indicating increased market activity that could precede significant price movement.
What makes the VSI genuinely adaptable is your ability to tweak the parameters to suit your needs.
Are you trading in a volatile market? Extend the SMA period to smooth out the noise. Trading in a 24-hour market? Adjust the length of your SMA. Seeking finer details? Shorten it. The VSI is yours to adapt to your trading strategy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As we wrap up this introduction to the Volume Spike Indicator, I hope you're as excited about its potential as I am. This tool, born out of curiosity and a desire for clarity in the vast ocean of market data, is designed to be your ally in navigating the waves of trading activity.
Remember, the true power of the VSI lies not just in its ability to highlight significant volume spikes, but in its adaptability to your unique trading style and needs. Whether you're charting courses through the tumultuous seas of day trading or navigating the broader currents of long-term investments, the VSI is here to offer insights and guidance.
I encourage you to experiment with it, customize it, and see how it can enhance your trading strategy. And as you do, remember that every tool, no matter how powerful, is just one piece of the puzzle. Combine the VSI with your knowledge, experience, and intuition to make informed and strategic trading decisions.
Thank you for taking the time to explore the Volume Spike Indicator with me.

Volumeanalysis
Volume Flow Oscillator (VFO)I created the Volume Flow Oscillator (VFO) to explore the intricate interplay between volume and price movements over a specific lookback period. This tool contrasts volumes that move in sync with the price against those that move in opposition, signaling potential overbought or oversold territories. To determine the direction, I compare the current price to its value four periods back, shedding light on underlying bullish or bearish momentum. The VFO enriches my analysis and decision-making by offering a detailed perspective on how volume trends correlate with price changes. Its color-coded visuals are crucial for highlighting optimal trading points based on volume dynamics.
Time Relative Volume Oscillator | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
The relative volume indicator aims to improve upon the default existing relative volume indicator by comparing volumes between previous trading sessions rather than previous candles. As such, it works best on lower time frames as there is more data to compare with. The purpose of the indicator is to show how the current bar’s volume compares to the volume at the same time on previous trading days.
There exists a couple different modes and combinations that each provide a different perspective on the trading volume.
Oscillator mode
Oscillator mode starts with the same relative volume calculation, but adds two EMAs of different lengths that diverge and converge. Like the MACD, it plots the difference as a histogram. This functions as an easy way to view when relative volume is increasing or decreasing.
How to use:
The oscillator oscillates between -1 and 1. It moves along with volume direction, so this mode can be used to view the current volume direction in a lagging fashion. In oscillating markets, this indicator can give an idea of how buy/sell volume is moving and where it currently stands. Small arrows mark where reversals are predicted, when the histogram crosses over 0. The biggest pitfall of this mode is that, in a straight trending market, the two EMAs converge and it gives a false reversal signal.
Delta mode
Delta volume mode is a step up from the buy/sell volume mode. It separates both sides into the top and bottom, while also displaying the actual volume behind it in a semi transparent overlay. The best feature, however, is the delta oscillator. This oscillator fluctuates depending on how buy/sell volume is changing and plots bullish/bearish labels when the dominant side (bullish/bearish) changes. The signals, while a bit common, can sometimes dictate large direction changes, started by a dominant volume switch.
On top of different display modes, there is also one more volume mode: buy/sell volume. Instead of only showing the total volume and relative volume, it calculates and separates buying and selling volume.
This volume mode displays differently in all three viewing modes, but the basic principle is the same. It adds a vital piece of information to the chart without adding clutter. The calculation for buy/sell volume uses the candle wicks and body to compare bullish and bearish movement.
Classic mode
Classic mode takes the default volume indicator and improves upon it by also displaying the relative volume on top of the actual volume. Relative volume is calculated similarly between the three display modes: simply by comparing the current bar’s volume to the volume at the same time during previous trading days. Classic mode displays this “relative volume” as well as a simple EMA over top of the actual trading volume.
Originality
The script improves upon the existing relative volume indicator by using previous trading days rather than previous candles to generate the relative volume. On top of that, the calculation methods are unique, using different formulas like variations of the sigmoid function to smooth noise. The main issue this script aims to fix is that towards the start or end of the day relative volume indicators all see spikes as volume grows into close. The new relative volume calculations fix this problem and show what the “true” relative volume is because they compare the current bar to the “same” bar on previous trading sessions.
Volume Explosion [ProjeAdam]OVERVIEW
The purpose of the indicator is to detect significant changes in trading volume in financial markets.
USER GUIDE:
The user can change the sensitivity of the indicator by adjusting the multiplier value. The higher the multiplier, the harder it is to detect high volume bars.
The multiplier set by the user determines how much a move above the volume values is considered an "explosion". A higher multiplier results in fewer volume bursts being detected.
ALGORITHM
LANGUAGE
We have two different language options in our indicator. Users can use it in Turkish or English.
If we change the language option on our indicator, the language on our indicator that shows the upper and average level of our Band changes.
CALCULATING EXPLOSIONS
The indicator calculates the simple moving average of volume over a certain period of time. This average is used to identify abnormal movements by comparing it with the current volume.
If the current volume is higher than a certain multiple of the moving average, this is considered a volume burst. This indicates significant activity in the market.
ALARMS
We can change the parity for which we want to receive an alarm from the settings panel and ensure that we receive an alarm at the parity we want.
VİSUALİZATİON
When an alarm occurs in our parities, a separate indicator appears at the bottom right of the chart showing which parities the alarm is triggered in.
If there is no signal in the next bar, this table is automatically deleted.
Example
We understand that we have excessive volume in the two bars in our example and that interest in this financial product has increased in this region.
Benefits
This indicator is especially useful for traders who care about volume changes.
This indicator can be used as a helpful tool in trading decisions, as sudden increases in volume can be the beginning of a significant move in the market.

3. Alerts: Stay informed with real-time alerts for key market events.
Code Explanation:
- Order Flow Calculation:
The core of the indicator is the calculation of order flow, which is the sum of volumes for bullish or bearish price movements. This is followed by normalization using standard deviation.
orderFlow = math.sum(close > close ? volume : (close < close ? -volume : 0), orderFlowWindow)
orderFlow := useSmoothing ? ta.hma(orderFlow, smoothingLength) : orderFlow
stdDev = ta.stdev(orderFlow, 45) * 1
normalizedOrderFlow = orderFlow/(stdDev + stdDev)
- Velocity Calculation:
The velocity of order flow changes is calculated using moving averages, providing a dynamic view of market momentum.
velocityDiff = ma((normalizedOrderFlow - ma(normalizedOrderFlow, velocitySignalLength, maTypeInput)) * 10, velocityCalcLength, maTypeInput)
- Display Options:
Users can choose their preferred display mode, focusing on either order flow, order velocity, or both.
orderFlowDisplayCond = displayMode != "Order Velocity" ? display.all : display.none

- Reversal Indicators and Divergences:
The indicator also includes plots for potential bullish and bearish reversals, as well as regular and hidden divergences, adding depth to your market analysis.
bullishReversalCond = reversalType == "Order Flow" ? ta.crossover(normalizedOrderFlow, -1.5) : (reversalType == "Order Velocity" ? ta.crossover(velocityDiff, -4) : (ta.crossover(velocityDiff, -4) or ta.crossover(normalizedOrderFlow, -1.5)) )
bearishReversalCond = reversalType == "Order Flow" ? ta.crossunder(normalizedOrderFlow, 1.5) : (reversalType == "Order Velocity" ? ta.crossunder(velocityDiff, 4) : (ta.crossunder(velocityDiff, 4) or ta.crossunder(normalizedOrderFlow, 1.5)) )
In summary, the Standardized Orderflow indicator by AlgoAlpha is a versatile tool for traders aiming to enhance their market analysis. Whether you're focused on short-term momentum or long-term trends, this indicator provides valuable insights into market dynamics. 🌟📉📈
Volume-Trend Sentiment (VTS) [AlgoAlpha]Introducing the Volume-Trend Sentiment by AlgoAlpha, a unique tool designed for traders who seek a deeper understanding of market sentiment through volume analysis. This innovative indicator offers a comprehensive view of market dynamics, blending volume trends with price action to provide an insightful perspective on market sentiment. 🚀📊
Key Features:
1. 🌟 Dual Trend Analysis: This indicator combines the concepts of price movement and volume, offering a multi-dimensional view of market sentiment. By analyzing the relationship between the closing and opening prices relative to volume, it provides a nuanced understanding of market dynamics.
2. 🎨 Customizable Settings: Flexibility is at the core of this indicator. Users can adjust various parameters such as the length of the volume trend, standard deviation, and SMA length, ensuring a tailored experience to match individual trading strategies.
3. 🌈 Visual Appeal: With options to display noise, the main plot, and background colors, the indicator is not only informative but also visually engaging. Users can choose their preferred colors for up and down movements, making the analysis more intuitive.
4. ⚠️ Alerts for Key Movements: Stay ahead of market changes with built-in alert conditions. These alerts notify traders when the Volume-Trend Sentiment crosses above or below the midline, signaling potential shifts in market momentum.
How It Works:
The core of the indicator is the calculation of the Volume-Trend Sentiment (VTS). It is computed by subtracting a double-smoothed Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the price-volume ratio from a single EMA of the same ratio. This method highlights the trend in volume relative to price changes.
volumeTrend = ta.ema((close - open) / volume, volumeTrendLength) - ta.ema(ta.ema((close - open) / volume, volumeTrendLength), volumeTrendLength)
To manage volatility and noise in the volume trend, the indicator employs a standard deviation calculation and a Simple Moving Average (SMA). This smoothing process helps in identifying the true underlying trend by filtering out extreme fluctuations.
standardDeviation = ta.stdev(volumeTrend, standardDeviationLength) * 1
smoothedVolumeTrend = ta.sma(volumeTrend / (standardDeviation + standardDeviation), smaLength)
A unique feature is the dynamic background color, which changes based on the sentiment level. This visual cue instantly communicates the market's bullish or bearish sentiment, enhancing the decision-making process.
getColor(volumeTrendValue) =>
sentimentLevel = math.abs(volumeTrendValue * 10)
baseTransparency = 60 // Base transparency level
colorTransparency = math.max(90 - sentimentLevel * 5, baseTransparency)
volumeTrendValue > 0 ? color.new(upColor, colorTransparency) : color.new(downColor, colorTransparency)
bgcolor(showBackgroundColor ? getColor(smoothedVolumeTrend) : na)
In summary, the Volume-Trend Sentiment by AlgoAlpha is a comprehensive tool that enhances market analysis through a unique blend of volume and price trends. Whether you're a seasoned trader or just starting out, this indicator offers valuable insights into market sentiment and helps in making informed trading decisions. 📈📉🔍🌐
Volume Profile [TFO]This indicator generates Volume Profiles from which to display insights about recent Volume Points of Control and High Volume Nodes. Volume Profile is a way to view trading volume by the price where trades have occurred, rather than the time when they occur (as seen by traditional Volume indicators).
By selecting a Resolution Timeframe (1m in this example), we can aggregate the volume at different prices to build a Volume Profile for a specified Profile Timeframe (1D in this example). In this indicator, we make the simple assumption that a given candle's volume is distributed evenly across all points. Realistically, this is seldom the case, but it gives us a starting point to easily estimate the volume at a given price, in turn helping us to build our profiles in a trivial way.
If we do this for all Resolution Timeframe candles within a Profile Timeframe (all 1m candles in a single 1D candle, in this example), then we can successfully aggregate this data and build a full Volume Profile. And thankfully, Pine Script's new polyline feature ultimately allow us to keep more Volume Profiles on our charts. Before polylines, we would have to consider using lines or boxes to represent the individual levels within a given profile, and each script currently has a cap of 500 lines and boxes, respectively. However, one single polyline can be used to draw the complex shape of an entire profile, and we may show up to 100 polylines in a given script. This helps us keep a lot more data on our charts!
Compared to TradingView's Session Volume Profile indicator (blue/yellow), we can see that our indicator (grey) is nearly identical, which verifies that our assumption of a uniform volume distribution is enough to roughly estimate a given Volume Profile. Note in this example the Row Size was set to 200, meaning that 200 levels are used to approximate profiles from each session's high to its low.
Show VPOC will show the volume point of control of each profile, which represents the price level where the largest amount of volume was traded for a given profile. This is shown with the red lines in the following chart.
Extend Last N VPOCs will look for the most recent, user-defined number of VPOCs (not including the current session's VPOC that's still developing) and extend them to the right of the chart as points of reference. The Show Labels Above option will annotate each VPOC with its respective date above a specified timeframe. This way, if one was using Volume Profiles on intraday timeframes, there wouldn't need to be several date strings all showing the same day.
Show Previous HVNs will show high volume nodes from the previous session. The HVN Strength setting is similar to a "pivot strength" that I use in a lot of my scripts - essentially, HVNs are validated by treating them as local highs. With a HVN Strength of 10 for example, if a given level contains more volume than the 10 levels above and below it, then it is validated as a HVN.
For a cleaner look and feel, HVNs can instead be shown as levels (lines) instead of areas (boxes). With levels enabled, solid lines denote the previous session's VPOC, and dotted lines represent all other HVNs. With areas enabled instead, the tops and bottoms will extend above/below the HVN level until a point with greater volume is discovered (marking the "end" of the node).
This indicator can be computationally intensive and may crash from taking too long to execute. In these cases, it's best to disable unused features, decrease the number of Rows, and/or simply reload the chart until it populates.
BTC ETF VolumesVolume
This script plots the trading volume of all BTC spot ETFs as well as the aggregate volume. Works on any chart and any timeframe.
Indicators
The volume of every ETF is plotted in a different color, with the total column adding up to the aggregate volume.
If you have price and indicator labels enabled you will also see individual ETF volume on your price scale on the right hand side.
If more BTC ETFs get launched I will add them.
Volume Candle DistributionThe Volume Candle Distribution (VCD) indicator examines the volume distribution across candle type, distinguishes between neutral, bullish and bearish volume pressures.
The VCD indicator calculates and displays the cumulative volume of bullish and bearish candles over a user-defined period, aggregates the volumes of bullish and bearish candles separately and plots them.
Bullish Volume : This is accumulated when the closing price of a candle is higher than the opening price, the VCD adds up the volume of bullish candle within the user-defined period, and consequently subtracts the volume when bearish candle.
Bearish Volume : Conversely, when the closing price is lower than the opening price, the volume of that candle is considered bearish, the VCD sums the volume of bearish candles over the same period, and consequently subtracts the volume when bullish candle.
Neutral Volume : In cases where the opening and closing prices are equal, the volume of that candle is treated as neutral, and the VCD subtracts the volume from both candles.
The 3 Simple Moving Average (SMAs) included is based volume calculated separately for both bullish and bearish volume data, and the sum of them.
VWAP LEVELS [PRO]32 VWAP levels with labels and a table to help you identify quickly where current price is in relation to your favorite VWAP pivot levels. To help reduce cognitive load, 4 colors are used to show you where price is in relation to a VWAP level as well as the strength of that respective level. Ultimately, VWAP can be an invaluable source of support and resistance; in other words you'll often see price bounce off of a level (whether price is increasing or decreasing) once or multiple times and that could be an indication of a price's direction. Another way that you could utilize this indicator is to use it in confluence with other popular signals, such as an EMA crossover. Many traders will wait till a bar's close on the 5m or 10m time frame above a VWAP level (developing 1D VWAP would be a popular choice) before making a decision on a potential trade especially if price is rising above the 1D VWAP *and* there's been a recent 100 EMA cross UP of the 200 EMA. These are 2 bullish signals that you could look for before possibly entering in to a trade.
I've made this indicator extremely customizable:
⚡Each VWAP level has 2 labels: 1 "at level" and 1 "at right", each label and price can be disabled
⚡Each VWAP label has its own input for label padding. The "at right" label padding input allows you to zoom in and out of a chart without the labels moving along their respective axis. However, the "at level" label padding input doesn't work the same way once you move the label out of the "0" input. The label will move slightly when you zoom in and out
⚡Both "current" and "previous" VWAP levels have their own plot style that can be changed from circles, crosses and lines
⚡Significant figures input allows you to round a price up or down
⚡A price line that allows you to identify where price is in relation to a VWAP level
⚡A table that's color coded the same way as the labels. The labels and table cells change to 1 of 4 colors when "OC Check Mode" is enabled. This theory examines if the VWAP from the Open is above or below the VWAP from Close and if price is above or below normal VWAP (HLC3). This way we have 4 states:
Red = Strong Downtrend
Light Red = Weak Downtrend
Light = Weak Uptrend
Green = Strong Uptrend
Something to keep in mind: At the start of a new year, week or month, some levels will converge and they'll eventually diverge slowly or quickly depending on the level and/or time frame. You could add a few labels "at level" to show which levels are converging at the time. Since we're at the beginning of a new year, you'll see current month, 2 month, 3 month etc converge in to one level.
🙏Thanks to (c)MartinWeb for the inspiration behind this indicator.
🙏Thanks to (c)SimpleCryptoLife for the libraries and code to help create the labels.
Volume Exhaustion [AlgoAlpha]Introducing the Volume Exhaustion by AlgoAlpha, is an innovative tool that aims to identify potential exhaustion or peaks in trading volume , which can be a key indicator for reversals or continuations in market trends 🔶.
Key Features:
Signal Plotting : A special feature is the plotting of 'Release' signals, marked by orange diamonds, indicating points where the exhaustion index crosses under its previous value and is above a certain boundary. This could signify critical market points 🚨.
Calculation Length Customization : Users can adjust the calculation and Signal lengths to suit their trading style, allowing for flexibility in analysis over different time periods. ☝️
len = input(50, "Calculation Length")
len2 = input(8, "Signal Length")
Visual Appeal : The script offers customizable colors (col for the indicator and col1 for the background) enhancing the visual clarity and user experience 💡.
col = input.color(color.white, "Indicator Color")
col1 = input.color(color.gray, "Background Color")
Advanced Volume Processing : At its core, the script utilizes a combination of Hull Moving Average (HMA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) applied to the volume data. This sophisticated approach helps in smoothing out the volume data and reducing lag.
sv = ta.hma(volume, len)
ssv = ta.hma(sv, len)
Volume Exhaustion Detection : The script calculates the difference between the volume and its smoothed version, normalizing this value to create an exhaustion index (fff). Positive values of this index suggest potential volume exhaustion.
f = sv-ssv
ff = (f) / (ta.ema(ta.highest(f, len) - ta.lowest(f, len), len)) * 100
fff = ff > 0 ? ff : 0
Boundary and Zero Line : The script includes a boundary line (boundary) and a zero line (zero), with the area between them filled for enhanced visual interpretation. This helps in assessing the relative position of the exhaustion index.
Customizable Background : The script colors the background of the chart for better readability and to distinguish the indicator’s area clearly.
Overall, Volume Exhaustion is designed for traders who focus on volume analysis. It provides a unique perspective on volume trends and potential exhaustion points, which can be crucial for making informed trading decisions. This script is a valuable addition for traders looking to enhance their trading experience with advanced volume analysis tools.
Order Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Volumized Order Blocks indicator! This new indicator can render order blocks with their volumetric information. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Volumized Order Blocks indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Order Blocks
Enable / Disable Volumetric Information
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart.
The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenario, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.
🚩UNIQUENESS
The ability to render the total volume of Order Blocks as well as bullish / bearish volume ratio is what sets this Order Block indicator apart from others. Also the ability to combine overlapping Order Block zones will result in cleaner charts for traders.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Volumetric Info -> The volumetric information of the Order Blocks will be rendered if activated.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.

Volume Heatmap 2024 | NXT2017 Christmas EditionHi big players around the world,
I wish you a merry christmas time.
Today I have a nice present for you: a new volume heatmap indicator for free using!
HISTORY
My first volume heatmap project got a lot of feedback and a big demand. You can find it here:
In this time pinescript version 4 was the newest one and I worked the first time with arrays.
Today we have pinescript version 5 and some new features. This is why I tried again with matrix function and the results are better than I expected.
HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates similar like the volume profile. It looks back and every volume where the close price is on the same row area, the volume will cumulated. How much rows the new chart view is showing, you can choose manually.
The mind behind this is to find high volume levels, where high volume catch the price in a range or get function as support/resistance line.
PICTURES
I hope it helps for your trading. You are welcome to give some comments.
Merry christmas and best regards

Liquidity Weighted Moving Averages [AlgoAlpha]Description:
The Liquidity Weighted Moving Averages by AlgoAlpha is a unique approach to identifying underlying trends in the market by looking at candle bars with the highest level of liquidity. This script offers a modified version of the classical MA crossover indicator that aims to be less noisy by using liquidity to determine the true fair value of price and where it should place more emphasis on when calculating the average.
Rationale:
It is common knowledge that liquidity makes it harder for market participants to move the price of assets, using this logic, we can determine the coincident liquidity of each bar by looking at the volume divided by the distance between the opening and closing price of that bar. If there is a higher volume but the opening and closing prices are near each other, this means that there was a high level of liquidity in that bar. We then use standard deviations to filter out high spikes of liquidity and record the closing prices on those bars. An average is then applied to these recorded prices only instead of taking the average of every single bar to avoid including outliers in the data processing.
Key features:
Customizable:
Fast Length - the period of the fast-moving average
Slow Length - the period of the slow-moving average
Outlier Threshold Length - the period of the outlier processing algorithm to detect spikes in liquidity
Significant Noise reduction from outliers:

Trend Flow Profile [AlgoAlpha]Description:
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator is a powerful tool designed to analyze and interpret the underlying trends and reversals in a financial market. It combines the concepts of Order Flow and Rate of Change (ROC) to provide valuable insights into market dynamics, momentum, and potential trade opportunities. By integrating these two components, the indicator offers a comprehensive view of market sentiment and price movements, facilitating informed trading decisions.
Rationale:
The combination of Order Flow and ROC in the "Trend Flow Profile" indicator stems from the recognition that both factors play critical roles in understanding market behavior. Order Flow represents the net buying or selling pressure in the market, while ROC measures the rate at which prices change. By merging these elements, the indicator captures the interplay between market participants' actions and the momentum of price movements, enabling traders to identify trends, spot reversals, and gauge the strength of price acceleration or deceleration.
Calculation:
The Order Flow component is computed by summing the volume when prices move up and subtracting the volume when prices move down. This cumulative measure reflects the overall order imbalance in the market, providing insights into the dominant buying or selling pressure.
The ROC component calculates the percentage change in price over a given period. It compares the current price to a previous price and expresses the change as a percentage. This measurement indicates the velocity and direction of price movement, allowing traders to assess the market's momentum.
How to Use It?
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator offers valuable information to traders for making informed trading decisions. It enables the identification of underlying trends and potential reversals, providing a comprehensive view of market sentiment and momentum. Here are some key ways to utilize the indicator:
Spotting Trends: The indicator helps identify the prevailing market trend, whether bullish or bearish. A consistent positive (green) histogram indicates a strong uptrend, while a consistent negative (red) histogram suggests a robust downtrend.
Reversal Signals: Reversal patterns can be identified when the histogram changes color, transitioning from positive to negative (or vice versa). These reversals can signify potential turning points in the market, highlighting opportunities for counter-trend trades.
Momentum Assessment: By observing the width and intensity of the histogram, traders can assess the acceleration or deceleration of price momentum. A wider histogram suggests strong momentum, while a narrower histogram indicates a potential slowdown.
Utility:
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator serves as a valuable tool for traders, providing several benefits. Traders can easily identify the prevailing market trend, enabling them to align their trading strategies with the dominant direction of the market. The indicator also helps spot potential reversals, allowing traders to anticipate market turning points and capture counter-trend opportunities. Additionally, the green and red histogram colors provide visual cues to determine the optimal duration of a long or short position. Following the green histogram signals when in a long position and the red histogram signals when in a short position can assist traders in managing their trades effectively. Moreover, the width and intensity of the histogram offer insights into the acceleration or deceleration of momentum. Traders can gauge the strength of price movements and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. By leveraging the "Trend Flow Profile" indicator, traders gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics, which enhances their decision-making and improves their overall trading outcomes.

Volatility ZigZagIt calculates and plots zigzag lines based on volatility and price movements. It has various inputs for customization, allowing you to adjust parameters like source data, length, deviation, line styling, and labeling options.
The indicator identifies pivot points in the price movement, drawing lines between these pivots based on the deviation from certain price levels or volatility measures.
The script labels various data points at the ZigZag pivot points on the chart. These labels provide information about different aspects of the price movement and volume around these pivot points. Here's a breakdown of what gets labeled:
Price Change: Indicates the absolute and average percentage change between the two pivot points. It displays the absolute or relative change in price as a percentage. Additionally, the average absolute price increase or the average rate of increase can also be labeled.
Volume: Shows the total volume and average volume between the two pivot points.
Number of Bars: Indicates the number of bars between the current and the last pivot point.
Reversal Price: Displays the price of the reversal point (the previous pivot).
Relative Volume Intensity Control Chart***NOTE THE VOLUME OSCILATOR PROVIDED AT THE BOTTOM IS FOR COMPARSION AND IS NOT PART OF THE INDICATOR****
This indicator provides a comprehensive and a nuanced representation of volume relative to historical volume. The indicator aims to provide insights into the relative intensity of trading volume compared to historical data. It calculates two types of relative volume intensity: mean volume intensity and point volume intensity. The final indicator, "Relative_volume_intensity," is a combination of these two.
1. Point Volume Intensity:
Calculate the ratio of the current volume to the corresponding SMA from the previous period for each of the periods.
Normalize each ratio by dividing it by the corresponding normalized SMA.
Assign weights to each normalized ratio and calculate the point volume intensity.
Point volume intensity calculates the intensity of the current trading volume at a specific point in time relative to its historical moving average. It assesses how much the current volume deviates from the previous historical average for different lookback periods(current volume/ average volume of previous n days). The calculation involves dividing the current volume by the corresponding previous historical moving average and normalizing the result. The purpose of point volume intensity is to capture the immediate impact of the current volume on the overall intensity, providing a more dynamic and responsive measure.
2. Mean Volume Intensity:
Calculate the simple moving averages (SMA) of the volume for different periods (5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144).
Normalize each SMA by dividing it by the SMA with the longest lookback (144).
Assign weights to each normalized SMA and calculate the mean volume intensity.
Mean volume intensity, on the other hand, takes a broader approach by looking at the mean (average) of various historical moving averages of volume. Instead of focusing on the current volume alone, it considers the historical average intensity over multiple periods. The purpose of mean volume intensity is to provide a smoother and more stable representation of the overall historical volume intensity. It helps filter out short-term fluctuations and provides a more comprehensive view of how the current volume compares to historical norms.
Purpose of Both:
Both point volume intensity and mean volume intensity contribute to the calculation of the final indicator, "Relative_volume_intensity." The idea is to combine these two perspectives to create a more comprehensive measure of relative volume intensity. By assigning equal weights to both components and taking a balanced approach, the indicator aims to capture both short-term spikes in volume and trends in volume intensity over a relatively extended periods.
In calculation of both point volume intensity and mean volume intensity, shorter-term moving averages (e.g., 5, 8) have higher weights, suggesting a greater emphasis on recent volume behavior.
Visualization:
The script then calculates the mean and standard deviation of the relative volume intensity over a specified lookback length.
Plot lines for the centerline (mean), upper and lower 3 standard deviations, upper and lower 2 standard deviations, and upper and lower 1 standard deviation.
Plot the relative volume intensity as a step line with diamond markers.
It is displayed like a control chart where we can see how the relative intensity is behaving when compared to longer historical lookback period.
Logarithmic CVD [IkkeOmar]The LCVD is another Mean-Reversion Indicator. it doesn't detect trends and does not give a signal per se. However the logarithmic transformation is made to visualize the direction of the trend for the volume. This allows you to see if money is flowing in or out of an asset.
What it does is tell you if we have a flashcrash based on the difference in volume.
Think of this indicator like a form of a volatility index.
Smoothing input:
The only input is an input for the smoothing length of the logDelta.
Volume Calculation:
// @IkkeOmar
//@version=5
indicator('Logarithmic CVD', shorttitle='CVD', overlay=false)
smooth = input.int(defval = 25, title = "Smoothing Distance")
// Calculate buying and selling volume
askVolume = volume * (close > open ? 1 : 0) // Assuming higher close than open indicates buying
bidVolume = volume * (close < open ? 1 : 0) // Assuming lower close than open indicates selling
// Delta is the difference between buying and selling volume
delta = askVolume - bidVolume
// Apply logarithmic transformation to delta
// Adding a check to ensure delta is not zero as log(0) is undefined
logDelta = delta > 0 ? math.log(math.abs(delta)) * math.sign(delta) : - math.log(math.abs(delta)) * math.sign(delta)
// use the the ta lib for calculating the sma of the logDelta
smoothLogDelta = ta.sma(logDelta, smooth)
// Create candlestick plot
plot(logDelta, color= color.green, title='Logarithmic CVD')
plot(smoothLogDelta, color= color.rgb(145, 37, 1), title='Smooth CVD')
These lines calculate the buying and selling volumes. askVolume is calculated as the total volume when the closing price is higher than the opening price, assuming this indicates buying pressure. bidVolume is calculated as the total volume when the closing price is lower than the opening price, assuming selling pressure.
The Delta is simply the difference between buying and selling volumes.
Logarithmic Transformation:
logDelta = delta > 0 ? math.log(math.abs(delta)) * math.sign(delta) : - math.log(math.abs(delta)) * math.sign(delta)
Applies a logarithmic transformation to delta. The math.log function is used to calculate the natural logarithm of the absolute value of delta. The sign of delta is preserved to differentiate between positive and negative values. This transformation helps in scaling the delta values, especially useful when dealing with large numbers.
This script essentially provides a visual representation of the buying and selling pressures in a market, transformed logarithmically for better scaling and smoothed for trend analysis.
Hope it makes sense!
Stay safe everyone!
Don't hesitate to ask any questions if you have any!
Tick Volume Direction IndicatorTick Volume Direction Indicator
This indicator captures:
• tick volume
• tick direction
The settings are as follows:
• volume or base currency value selection.
• label distance (away from the low of the candle).
• Tick volume - on/off switch for tick volume.
• label size.
• Up tick move color.
• tick move absorbed - when the tick doesn't change position.
• Down tick move.
On the first initial load, it will have the existing volume data as "?" as tradingview doesn't have a history of each tick.
Be aware, any settings change you make will refresh the tick data from start.
This indicator is one of the best real-time ways of seeing buying and selling pressure.
