IDX - 5UPThe UDX-5UP is a custom indicator designed to assist traders in identifying trends, entry and exit signals, and market reversal moments with greater accuracy. It combines price analysis, volume, and momentum (RSI) to provide clear buy ("Buy") and sell ("Sell") signals across any asset and timeframe, whether you're a scalper on the 5M chart or a swing trader on the 4H chart. Inspired by robust technical analysis strategies, the UDX-5UP is ideal for traders seeking a reliable tool to operate in volatile markets such as cryptocurrencies, forex, stocks, and futures.
Components of the UDX-5UP
The UDX-5UP consists of three main panels that work together to provide a comprehensive view of the market:
Main Panel (Price):
Pivot Supertrend: A dynamic line that changes color to indicate the trend. Green for an uptrend (look for buys), red for a downtrend (look for sells).
SMAs (Simple Moving Averages): Two SMAs (8 and 21 periods) to confirm the trend direction. When the SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21, it’s a bullish signal; when it crosses below, it’s a bearish signal.
Entry/Exit Signals: "Buy" (green) and "Sell" (red) labels are plotted on the chart when entry or exit conditions are met.
Volume Panel:
Colored Volume Bars: Green bars indicate dominant buying volume, while red bars indicate dominant selling volume.
Volume Moving Average (MA 20): A blue line that helps identify whether the current volume is above or below the average, confirming the strength of the movement.
RSI Panel:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Calculated with a period of 14, with overbought (70) and oversold (30) lines to identify momentum extremes.
Divergences: The indicator detects divergences between the RSI and price, plotting signals for potential reversals.
How the UDX-5UP Works
The UDX-5UP uses a combination of rules to generate buy and sell signals:
Buy Signal ("Buy"):
The Pivot Supertrend changes from red to green.
The SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21.
The volume is above the MA 20, with green bars (indicating buying pressure).
The RSI is rising and, ideally, below 70 (not overbought).
Example: On the 4H chart, the price of Tether (USDT) is at 0.05515. The Pivot Supertrend turns green, the SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21, the volume shows green bars above the MA 20, and the RSI is at 46. The UDX-5UP plots a "Buy".
Sell Signal ("Sell"):
The Pivot Supertrend changes from green to red.
The SMA 8 crosses below the SMA 21.
The volume is above the MA 20, with red bars (indicating selling pressure).
The RSI is falling and, ideally, above 70 (overbought).
Example: On the 4H chart, the price of Tether rises to 0.05817. The Pivot Supertrend turns red, the SMA 8 crosses below the SMA 21, the volume shows red bars, and the RSI is above 70. The UDX-5UP plots a "Sell".
RSI Divergences:
The indicator identifies bullish divergences (price makes a lower low, but RSI makes a higher low) and bearish divergences (price makes a higher high, but RSI makes a lower high), plotting alerts for potential reversals.
Adjustable Settings
The UDX-5UP is highly customizable to suit your trading style:
Pivot Supertrend Period: Default is 2. Increase to 3 or 4 for more conservative signals (fewer false positives, but more lag).
SMA Periods: Default is 8 and 21. Adjust to 5 and 13 for smaller timeframes (e.g., 5M) or 13 and 34 for larger timeframes (e.g., 1D).
RSI Period: Default is 14. Reduce to 10 for greater sensitivity or increase to 20 for smoother signals.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Default is 70/30. Adjust to 80/20 in volatile markets.
Display Panels: You can enable/disable the volume and RSI panels to simplify the chart.
How to Use the UDX-5UP
Identify the Trend:
Use the Pivot Supertrend and SMAs to determine the market direction. Uptrend: look for buys. Downtrend: look for sells.
Confirm with Volume and RSI:
For buys: Volume above the MA 20 with green bars, RSI rising and below 70.
For sells: Volume above the MA 20 with red bars, RSI falling and above 70.
Enter the Trade:
Enter a buy when the UDX-5UP plots a "Buy" and all conditions are aligned.
Enter a sell when the UDX-5UP plots a "Sell" and all conditions are aligned.
Plan the Exit:
Use Fibonacci levels or support/resistance on the price chart to set targets.
Exit the trade when the UDX-5UP plots an opposite signal ("Sell" after a buy, "Buy" after a sell).
Tips for Beginners
Start with Larger Timeframes: Use the 4H or 1D chart for more reliable signals and less noise.
Combine with Other Indicators: Use the UDX-5UP with tools like Fibonacci or the Candles RSI (another powerful indicator) to confirm signals.
Practice in Demo Mode: Test the indicator in a demo account before using real money.
Manage Risk: Always use a stop-loss and don’t risk more than 1-2% of your capital per trade.
Why Use the UDX-5UP?
Simplicity: Clear "Buy" and "Sell" signals make trading accessible even for beginners.
Versatility: Works on any asset (crypto, forex, stocks) and timeframe.
Multiple Confirmations: Combines price, volume, and momentum to reduce false signals.
Customizable: Adjust the settings to match your trading style.
Author’s Notes

"VOLUME BAR"に関するスクリプトを検索
GOLD Volume-Based Entry StrategyShort Description:
This script identifies potential long entries by detecting two consecutive bars with above-average volume and bullish price action. When these conditions are met, a trade is entered, and an optional profit target is set based on user input. This strategy can help highlight momentum-driven breakouts or trend continuations triggered by a surge in buying volume.
How It Works
Volume Moving Average
A simple moving average of volume (vol_ma) is calculated over a user-defined period (default: 20 bars). This helps us distinguish when volume is above or below recent averages.
Consecutive Green Volume Bars
First bar: Must be bullish (close > open) and have volume above the volume MA.
Second bar: Must also be bullish, with volume above the volume MA and higher than the first bar’s volume.
When these two bars appear in sequence, we interpret it as strong buying pressure that could drive price higher.
Entry & Profit Target
Upon detecting these two consecutive bullish bars, the script places a long entry.
A profit target is set at current price plus a user-defined fixed amount (default: 5 USD).
You can adjust this target, or you can add a stop-loss in the script to manage risk further.
Visual Cues
Buy Signal Marker appears on the chart when the second bar confirms the signal.
Green Volume Columns highlight the bars that fulfill the criteria, providing a quick visual confirmation of high-volume bullish bars.
Works fine on 1M-2M-5M-15M-30M. Do not use it on higher TF. Due the lack of historical data on lower TF, the backtest result is limited.
[blackcat] L1 Abnormal Volume Monitor█ OVERVIEW
The script is an indicator designed to monitor abnormal volume patterns in the market. It calculates and plots moving average volumes, identifies triple volume bars, and detects potential large order entries based on specific conditions.
█ FEATURES
• Input Parameters: The script defines parameters M1, M2, and lbk which control the calculation of moving averages and the lookback period for detecting abnormal volume.
• Calculations: The script calculates two moving averages of volume (MAVOL1 and MAVOL2), a smoothed price level (mm), and identifies conditions for triple volume bars and large order entries.
• Plotting: The script plots volume histograms for up and down bars, moving average volumes, and highlights triple volume bars with and without large order entries.
• Conditional Statements: The script uses conditional statements to determine when to plot certain data points and labels based on the calculated conditions.
█ LOGICAL FRAMEWORK
• xfl(cond, lbk): This function checks if a condition (cond) has been true within a specified lookback period (lbk). It returns true if the condition has been met and false otherwise.
• Parameters: cond (condition to check), lbk (lookback period).
• Return Value: outb (boolean indicating if the condition was met within the lookback period).
• abnormal_vol_monitor(close, open, high, low, volume, M1, M2, lbk): This function calculates moving average volumes, identifies triple volume bars, and detects large order entries.
• Parameters: close, open, high, low, volume (price and volume data), M1, M2 (periods for moving averages), lbk (lookback period).
• Return Value: A tuple containing MAVOL1, MAVOL2, xa (large order entry condition), and tripleVolume (triple volume condition).
█ KEY POINTS AND TECHNIQUES
• Moving Averages: The script uses simple moving averages (sma) and exponential moving averages (ema) to smooth volume data.
• Volume Analysis: The script identifies triple volume bars and large order entries based on specific conditions, such as volume doubling and price increases.
• Lookback Period: The xfl function uses a lookback period to ensure the accuracy of the detected conditions.
• Plotting Techniques: The script uses different plot styles and colors to distinguish between up bars, down bars, moving averages, and abnormal volume patterns.
█ EXTENDED KNOWLEDGE AND APPLICATIONS
• Modifications: The script could be modified to include additional conditions for detecting other types of abnormal volume patterns or to adjust the sensitivity of the detection.
• Extensions: Similar techniques could be applied to other financial instruments or timeframes to identify unusual trading activity.
• Related Concepts: The script utilizes concepts such as moving averages, exponential moving averages, and conditional plotting, which are fundamental in Pine Script and technical analysis.

Volume Profile Grid [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated volume distribution analysis system that transforms market activity into institutional-grade visual profiles, revealing hidden support/resistance zones and market participant behavior. Utilizing advanced price level segmentation, bullish/bearish volume separation, and dynamic range analysis, the Volume Profile Grid delivers comprehensive market structure insights with Point of Control (POC) identification, Value Area boundaries, and volume delta analysis. The system features intelligent visualization modes, real-time sentiment analysis, and flexible range selection to provide traders with clear, actionable volume-based market context.
🔶 Dynamic Range Analysis Engine
Implements dual-mode range selection with visible chart analysis and fixed period lookback, automatically adjusting to current market view or analyzing specified historical periods. The system intelligently calculates optimal bar counts while maintaining performance through configurable maximum limits, ensuring responsive profile generation across all timeframes with institutional-grade precision.
// Dynamic period calculation with intelligent caching
get_analysis_period() =>
if i_use_visible_range
chart_start_time = chart.left_visible_bar_time
current_time = last_bar_time
time_span = current_time - chart_start_time
tf_seconds = timeframe.in_seconds()
estimated_bars = time_span / (tf_seconds * 1000)
range_bars = math.floor(estimated_bars)
final_bars = math.min(range_bars, i_max_visible_bars)
math.max(final_bars, 50) // Minimum threshold
else
math.max(i_periods, 50)
🔶 Advanced Bull/Bear Volume Separation
Employs sophisticated candle classification algorithms to separate bullish and bearish volume at each price level, with weighted distribution based on bar intersection ratios. The system analyzes open/close relationships to determine volume direction, applying proportional allocation for doji patterns and ensuring accurate representation of buying versus selling pressure across the entire price spectrum.
🔶 Multi-Mode Volume Visualization
Features three distinct display modes for bull/bear volume representation: Split mode creates mirrored profiles from a central axis, Side by Side mode displays sequential bull/bear segments, and Stacked mode separates volumes vertically. Each mode offers unique insights into market participant behavior with customizable width, thickness, and color parameters for optimal visual clarity.
// Bull/Bear volume calculation with weighted distribution
for bar_offset = 0 to actual_periods - 1
bar_high = high
bar_low = low
bar_volume = volume
// Calculate intersection weight
weight = math.min(bar_high, next_level) - math.max(bar_low, current_level)
weight := weight / (bar_high - bar_low)
weighted_volume = bar_volume * weight
// Classify volume direction
if bar_close > bar_open
level_bull_volume += weighted_volume
else if bar_close < bar_open
level_bear_volume += weighted_volume
else // Doji handling
level_bull_volume += weighted_volume * 0.5
level_bear_volume += weighted_volume * 0.5
🔶 Point of Control & Value Area Detection
Implements institutional-standard POC identification by locating the price level with maximum volume accumulation, providing critical support/resistance zones. The Value Area calculation uses sophisticated sorting algorithms to identify the price range containing 70% of trading volume, revealing the market's accepted value zone where institutional participants concentrate their activity.
🔶 Volume Delta Analysis System
Incorporates real-time volume delta calculation with configurable dominance thresholds to identify significant bull/bear imbalances. The system visually highlights price levels where buying or selling pressure exceeds threshold percentages, providing immediate insight into directional volume flow and potential reversal zones through color-coded delta indicators.
// Value Area calculation using 70% volume accumulation
total_volume_sum = array.sum(total_volumes)
target_volume = total_volume_sum * 0.70
// Sort volumes to find highest activity zones
for i = 0 to array.size(sorted_volumes) - 2
for j = i + 1 to array.size(sorted_volumes) - 1
if array.get(sorted_volumes, j) > array.get(sorted_volumes, i)
// Swap and track indices for value area boundaries
// Accumulate until 70% threshold reached
for i = 0 to array.size(sorted_indices) - 1
accumulated_volume += vol
array.push(va_levels, array.get(volume_levels, idx))
if accumulated_volume >= target_volume
break
❓How It Works
🔶 Weighted Volume Distribution
Implements proportional volume allocation based on the percentage of each bar that intersects with price levels. When a bar spans multiple levels, volume is distributed proportionally based on the intersection ratio, ensuring precise representation of trading activity across the entire price spectrum without double-counting or volume loss.
🔶 Real-Time Profile Generation
Profiles regenerate on each bar close when in visible range mode, automatically adapting to chart zoom and scroll actions. The system maintains optimal performance through intelligent caching mechanisms and selective line updates, ensuring smooth operation even with maximum resolution settings and extended analysis periods.
🔶 Market Sentiment Analysis
Features comprehensive volume analysis table displaying total volume metrics, bullish/bearish percentages, and overall market sentiment classification. The system calculates volume dominance ratios in real-time, providing immediate insight into whether buyers or sellers control the current price structure with percentage-based sentiment thresholds.
🔶 Visual Profile Mapping
Provides multi-layered visual feedback through colored volume bars, POC line highlighting, Value Area boundaries, and optional delta indicators. The system supports profile mirroring for alternative perspectives, line extension for future reference, and customizable label positioning with detailed price information at critical levels.
Why Choose Volume Profile Grid
The Volume Profile Grid represents the evolution of volume analysis tools, combining traditional volume profile concepts with modern visualization techniques and intelligent analysis algorithms. By integrating dynamic range selection, sophisticated bull/bear separation, and multi-mode visualization with POC/Value Area detection, it provides traders with institutional-quality market structure analysis that adapts to any trading style. The comprehensive delta analysis and sentiment monitoring system eliminates guesswork while the flexible visualization options ensure optimal clarity across all market conditions, making it an essential tool for traders seeking to understand true market dynamics through volume-based price discovery.
Relative Volume Indicator (RVOL)Relative Volume Indicator (RVOL)
The Relative Volume Indicator (RVOL) helps traders identify unusual volume activity by comparing the current volume to the average historical volume. This makes it easier to spot potential breakouts, reversals, or significant market events that are accompanied by volume confirmation.
What This Indicator Shows
This indicator displays volume as a multiple of average volume, where:
- 1.0x means 100% of average volume
- 2.0x means 200% of average volume (twice the average)
- 0.5x means 50% of average volume (half the average)
Color Coding
The volume bars are color-coded based on configurable thresholds:
- Red: Below average volume (< Average Volume Threshold)
- Yellow: Average volume (between Average Volume and Above Average thresholds)
- Green: Above average volume (between Above Average and Extreme thresholds)
- Magenta: Extreme volume (> Extreme Volume Threshold)
Horizontal Reference Lines
Three dotted horizontal reference lines help you visualize the thresholds:
- Lower gray line: Average Volume Threshold (default: 0.8x)
- Upper gray line: Above Average Threshold (default: 1.25x)
- Magenta line: Extreme Volume Threshold (default: 4.0x)
How To Use This Indicator
1. Volume Confirmation: Use green bars to confirm breakouts or trend changes - stronger moves often come with above-average volume.
2. Low Volume Warning: Red bars during price movements may indicate weak conviction and potential reversals.
3. Extreme Volume Events: Magenta bars (extreme volume) often signal major market events or potential exhaustion points that could lead to reversals.
4. Volume Divergence: Look for divergences between price and volume - for example, if price makes new highs but volume is decreasing (more yellow/red bars), the move may be losing strength.
Settings Configuration
- Average Volume Lookback Period: Number of bars used to calculate the average volume (default: 20)
- Average Volume Threshold: Volume below this level is considered below average (default: 0.8x)
- Above Average Threshold: Volume above this level is considered above average (default: 1.25x)
- Extreme Volume Threshold: Volume above this level is considered extreme (default: 4.0x)
- Colors: Customize colors for each volume category
Important Note: Adjust threshold values only through the indicator settings (not in the Style tab). Changing values in the Style tab will not adjust the coloring of the volume bars.
Adjust these settings based on the specific asset being analyzed and your trading timeframe. More volatile assets may require higher thresholds, while less volatile ones might need lower thresholds.

Volume Insignts AnalyzerDescription:
The Volume Insight Analyzer is an advanced Pine Script designed for traders who want a comprehensive view of volume dynamics on their charts. This script combines multiple volume-based indicators to help identify key trading opportunities, including significant volume days, volume dry-ups, and pocket pivots.
Key Features:
VDU (Volume Dry-Up) Detection: Automatically identifies and marks days when the volume is significantly below its moving average, helping to spot potential breakout or breakdown points. Customizable volume thresholds allow for tailored analysis based on your trading strategy. The Volume Dry-Up label appears when the volume is substantially below its average level and the price is near a key moving average. This condition indicates a period of equilibrium between supply and demand, suggesting a potential low-risk entry point for traders.
Pocket Pivot Analysis using 5 and 10 Length Pocket Pivots: Highlights days with exceptionally high volume compared to recent history, indicating potential pocket pivots. Visual markers on the chart and volume bars color-coded for 5 and 10-day lengths. Pocket pivot points are identified when the volume on a given day exceeds the maximum volume observed over the past several days. Specifically, a 5-day pocket pivot point is marked when today's volume surpasses the highest selling volume of the last 5 days. A cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points within a base is a strong indicator of stock strength. Similarly, a 10-day pocket pivot point following a Volume Dry-Up (VDU) suggests a potential entry opportunity. Moreover, a pre-existing cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points before a 10-day pocket pivot point provides greater conviction in the trade.
Volume Moving Averages: Set different lengths for primary and secondary moving averages to track volume trends over daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes. Options to display moving average lines on the volume chart.
Volume Visualization:
a. Major and Minor Volume Bars: Option to display bars that are either above or below average volume levels. Adjustable settings to show or hide these bars based on user preference.

Properly configuring these values is crucial for the indicator's effectiveness.
Moving Average Settings: You can specify the source and length of moving averages used in the indicator. This helps in smoothing out data and providing a clearer picture of bull and bear power.
Void Color Background Conditions: The indicator dynamically changes the background color of the chart based on the current market conditions. It takes into account bull and bear power, as well as the configured sensitivity levels to determine whether the market is in a strong or slowing bull/bear phase.
MACD and Signal Lines: The indicator also displays MACD and signal lines on the chart, helping traders identify potential bullish and bearish crossovers.
Histogram Bars: Histogram bars are used to represent the strength of bull and bear power. Above-zero bars indicate bullish strength, while below-zero bars indicate bearish strength.
How to Use the Indicator:
Begin by customizing the color settings for different market conditions to your preference.
Select a volume void function that aligns with your trading strategy and objectives.
Configure the void bull sensitivity and void bear sensitivity values carefully. These values should reflect your desired sensitivity to volume conditions.
Choose the source and length of moving averages based on your analysis requirements.
Pay attention to the background color of the chart. It will change dynamically based on the current market conditions, providing insights into the strength of bull and bear power.
Observe the MACD and signal lines for potential bullish or bearish crossovers, which can be used as additional confirmation signals.
Interpret the histogram bars to gauge the strength of bull and bear power.
Example of Usage:
As a swing trader with a focus on volume analysis, you can use the BBVV indicator to enhance your trading decisions. Here's an example of how you might use the indicator:
Select "Relative Volume Comparison" as the volume void function to assess volume relative to a simple moving average.
Configure void bull sensitivity and void bear sensitivity to match your risk tolerance and trading style.
Choose "SMA" as the moving average type with a suitable length.
Pay attention to the background color changes in the chart. Strong bull areas may indicate potential bullish opportunities, while strong bear areas may signal bearish conditions.
Monitor the MACD and signal lines for potential crossovers, aligning them with the background color to validate your trading decisions.
Use the histogram bars to assess the strength of bull and bear power, helping you gauge market sentiment.
Remember that the BBVV indicator is a valuable tool to complement your trading strategy. It provides insights into volume dynamics and market conditions, allowing you to make informed trading choices.
Be sure to adjust the indicator settings according to your trading preferences and always consider the broader market context in your analysis.
Volume Candlesticks [cajole]
This script lets you create the equivalent of "volume candlesticks" in TradingView.
"Volume candlesticks" normally vary their width according to the bar's volume. This script varies COLOUR instead of WIDTH.
Bar charts are also supported.
Candles/Bars are coloured by their distance from the average volume. You can also add a "huge volume" colour to further highlight the most extremely-high volume bars.
Note that volume is extrapolated for incomplete bars by default. So, if the average volume of the past 10 days is 5M shares, and 5M shares trade in the first 10% of today's session, that bar will be coloured as though 50M shares have traded. Set the "Extrapolate" option to 1.0 to disable this.
For this script to work properly, you should set TradingView's default candle/bar colours to be at least 20% transparent. By default, TradingView tends to overlay its own bars on top of indicators.
Nerdy details:
The script works best on a dark background, because it is easier to change the hue of white bars than of black bars. If you find a set of colours that work for white backgrounds, please comment with them!
The geometric mean is used instead of the arithmetic mean, to keep the 'average' from being strongly influenced by spikes. Bars are
then coloured by assuming a normal probability distribution and highlighting outliers. (This means that the first high-volume bars are coloured differently to later ones.)
TriexDev - SuperBuySellTrend (PLUS+)Minimal but powerful.
Have been using this for myself, so thought it would be nice to share publicly. Of course no script is correct 100% of the time, but this is one of if not the best in my basic tools. (This is the expanded/PLUS version)

## What are vector candles?
Vector Candles (inspired to add from TradersReality/MT4) are candles that are colour coded to indicate higher volumes, and likely flip points / direction changes, or confirmations.
These are based off of PVSRA (Price, Volume, Support, Resistance Analysis).
You can also override the currency that this runs off of, including multiple ones - however adding more may slow things down.
PVSRA - From MT4 source:
Situation "Climax"
Bars with volume >= 200% of the average volume of the 10 previous chart TFs, and bars
where the product of candle spread x candle volume is >= the highest for the 10 previous
chart time TFs.
Default Colours: Bull bars are green and bear bars are red.
Situation "Volume Rising Above Average"
Bars with volume >= 150% of the average volume of the 10 previous chart TFs.
Default Colours: Bull bars are blue and bear are blue-violet.
A blue or purple bar can mean the chart has reached a top or bottom.
High volume bars during a movement can indicate a big movement is coming - or a top/bottom if bulls/bears are unable to break that point - or the volume direction has flipped.
This can also just be a healthy short term movement in the opposite direction - but at times sets obvious trend shifts.
## Volume Tracking
You can shift-click any candle to get the volume of that candle (in the pair token/stock), if you click and drag - you will see the volume for that range.
## Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands can be enabled in the settings via the toggle.
Bollinger Bands are designed to discover opportunities that give investors a higher probability of properly identifying when an asset is oversold (bottom lines) or overbought (top lines).
>There are three lines that compose Bollinger Bands: A simple moving average (middle band) and an upper and lower band.
>The upper and lower bands are typically 2 standard deviations +/- from a 20-day simple moving average, but they can be modified.

Base Indicator
## What is ATR?
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, which measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following:
- current high - the current low;
- the absolute value of the current high - the previous close;
- and the absolute value of the current low - the previous close.
The ATR is then a moving average, generally using 10/14 days, of the true ranges.
## What does this indicator do?
Uses the ATR and multipliers to help you predict price volatility, ranges and trend direction.
> The buy and sell signals are generated when the indicator starts
plotting either on top of the closing price or below the closing price. A buy signal is generated when the ‘Supertrend’ closes above the price and a sell signal is generated when it closes below the closing price.
> It also suggests that the trend is shifting from descending mode to ascending mode. Contrary to this, when a ‘Supertrend’ closes above the price, it generates a sell signal as the colour of the indicator changes into red.
> A ‘Supertrend’ indicator can be used on equities, futures or forex, or even crypto markets and also on daily, weekly and hourly charts as well, but generally, it will be less effective in a sideways-moving market.
Thanks to KivancOzbilgic who made the original SuperTrend Indicator this was based off

## Usage Notes
Two indicators will appear, the default ATR multipliers are already set for what I believe to be perfect for this particular (double indicator) strategy.
If you want to break it yourself (I couldn't find anything that tested more accurately myself), you can do so in the settings once you have added the indicator.
Basic rundown:
- A single Buy/Sell indicator in the dim colour; may be setting a direction change, or just healthy movement.
- When the brighter Buy/Sell indicator appears; it often means that a change in direction (uptrend or downtrend) is confirmed.
---
You can see here, there was a (brighter) green indicator which flipped down then up into a (brighter) red sell indicator which set the downtrend. At the end it looks like it may be starting to break the downtrend - as the price is hitting the trend line. (Would watch for whether it holds above or drops below at that point)
Another example, showing how sometimes it can still be correct but take some time to play out - with some arrow indicators.
Typically I would also look at oscillators, RSI and other things to confirm - but here it held above the trend lines nicely, so it appeared to be rather obvious.
It's worth paying attention to the trend lines and where the candles are sitting.
Once you understand/get a feel for the basics of how it works - it can become a very useful tool in your trading arsenal.
Also works for traditional markets & commodities etc in the same way / using the same ATR multipliers, however of course crypto generally has bigger moves.
---
You can use this and other indicators to confirm likeliness of a direction change prior to the brighter/confirmation one appearing - but just going by the 2nd(brighter) indicators, I have found it to be surprisingly accurate.
Tends to work well on virtually all timeframes, but personally prefer to use it on 5min,15min,1hr, 4hr, daily, weekly. Will still work for shorter/other timeframes, but may be more accurate on mid ones.
---
This will likely be updated as I go / find useful additions that don't convolute things. The base indicator may be updated with some limited / toggle-able features in future also.
Candles Based On Traded VolumeCBTV - Candlesticks Based on Traded Volume
This is the first robust implementation of volume based candlesticks (bars) on TradingView. This type of bar was describe in the book "Advances in Financial Machine Learning," written by Lopez de Prado, a well-known quant who has managed billions of dollars over the course of his career.
Volume Candlesticks (Bars) are bars that are indexed by total volume, with each set of N shares exchanged forming a separate bar.
This means that on CBTV chart a candle forms not after a specific time interval defined by the time frame of the chart, but when a determined volume was traded.
This approach to price sampling is much better than the time based one, because it does not oversample periods where nothing happens. Traditional candlestick charts show a lot of low volume bars without meaningful price changes in them.
The efficient price sampling results in better results when using volume based bars in machine learning forecasting models. They are also useful for technical analysis. Candlestick patterns on CBTV chart are more pronounced and have more predictive power.
Volume based bars can be constructed only for instruments where volume data is available. These are stocks, futures and crypto currencies.
When you run CBTV it appears in a separate window below the traditional time based chart.
CBTV will be used in pair with a helper indicator which is called Optimal Volume per Candle (OVPC).
When applied to a chart OVPC shows the optimal range for volume per candle to construct volume based candlesticks from this timeframe data. It appears in the blue box above the most recent candle of a standard time based chart.
When you set a Volume Per Candle parameter in CBTV make sure it is within the range that shows OVPC. In this case volume based chart will be easy to read and all the calculations will be performed with the high level of precision.
The most recent unfinished candle is marked with the different set of colors than historical candles. Unfinished candle is colored in orange if it is a falling candle, blue it it is a rising one.
If you leave the CBTV chart opened for a long time you can have multiple blue or orange candles on it. In this case press the “hide” icon with the eye sign twice (it’s on the left side of the indicator panel next to its input parameters). This will refresh the CBTV and remove the artifacts.
While everything comes Real-time you will see the orange or blue bars form but never update. All you need to do is REFRESH THE CHART. Hoping soon to update this with a version you wont have to refresh the chart.

SMC - Institutional Confidence Oscillator [PhenLabs]📊 Institutional Confidence Oscillator
Version: PineScript™v6
📌 Description
The Institutional Confidence Oscillator (ICO) revolutionizes market analysis by automatically detecting and evaluating institutional activity at key support and resistance levels using our own in-house detection system. This sophisticated indicator combines volume analysis, volatility measurements, and mathematical confidence algorithms to provide real-time readings of institutional sentiment and zone strength.
Using our advanced thin liquidity detection, the ICO identifies high-volume, narrow-range bars that signal institutional zone formation, then tracks how these zones perform under market pressure. The result is a dual-wave confidence oscillator that shows traders when institutions are actively defending price levels versus when they’re abandoning positions.
The indicator transforms complex institutional behavior patterns into clear, actionable confidence percentiles, helping traders align with smart money movements and avoid common retail trading pitfalls.

💡 Note:
The ICO works best when combined with traditional technical analysis and proper risk management. Higher confidence readings indicate stronger institutional backing but should be confirmed with price action and volume analysis. Consider using multiple timeframes for comprehensive market structure understanding.
Volume Overbought/Oversold Zones📊 What You’ll See on the Chart
Red Background or Red Triangle ABOVE a Candle
🔺 Means: Overbought Volume
→ Volume on that bar is much higher than average (as defined by your settings).
→ Suggests strong activity, possible exhaustion in the trend or an emotional spike.
→ It’s a warning: consider watching for signs of reversal, especially if price is already stretched.
Green Background or Green Triangle BELOW a Candle
🔻 Means: Oversold Volume
→ Volume on that bar is much lower than normal.
→ Suggests the market may be losing momentum, or few sellers are left.
→ Could signal an upcoming reversal or recovery if confirmed by price action.
Orange Line Below the Candles (Volume Moving Average)
📈 Shows the "normal" average volume over the last X candles (default is 20).
→ Helps you visually compare each bar’s volume to the average.
Gray Columns (Actual Volume Bars)
📊 These are your regular volume bars — they rise and fall based on how active each candle is.
🔍 What This Indicator Does (In Simple Words)
This indicator looks at trading volume—which is how many shares/contracts were traded in a given period—and compares it to what's considered "normal" for recent history. When volume is unusually high or low, it highlights those moments on the chart.
It tells you:
• When volume is much higher than normal → market might be overheated or experiencing a buying/selling frenzy.
• When volume is much lower than normal → market might be quiet, potentially indicating lack of interest or indecision.
These conditions are marked visually, so you can instantly spot them.
💡 How It Helps You As a Trader
1. Spotting Exhaustion in Trends (Overbought Signals)
If a market is going up and suddenly volume spikes way above normal, it may mean:
• The move is getting crowded (lots of buyers are already in).
• A reversal or pullback could be near because smart money may be taking profits.
Trading idea: Wait for high-volume up bars, then look for price weakness to consider a short or exit.
2. Identifying Hidden Opportunities (Oversold Signals)
If price is falling but volume drops unusually low, it might mean:
• Panic is fading.
• Sellers are losing energy.
• A bounce or trend reversal could happen soon.
Trading idea: After a volume drop in a downtrend, watch for bullish price patterns or momentum shifts to consider a buy.
3. Confirming or Doubting Breakouts
Volume is critical for confirming breakouts:
• If price breaks a key level with strong volume, it's more likely to continue.
• A breakout without volume could be a fake-out.
This indicator highlights volume surges that can help you confirm such moves.
📈 How to Use It in Practice
• Combine it with candlestick patterns, support/resistance, or momentum indicators.
• Use the background colors or shapes as a visual cue to pause and analyze.
• Adjust the sensitivity to suit fast-moving markets (like crypto) or slow ones (like large-cap stocks).
Volume Histogram with ThresholdsVolume Histogram with Thresholds
Description:
This indicator displays a histogram of volume bars with color coding based on customizable volume thresholds. It helps traders quickly identify potential breakouts and breakdowns by comparing current volume against a moving average of past volume.
Features:
Customizable Average Volume Period – Allows you to set a lookback period for calculating average volume.
Color-Coded Bars for Quick Visual Reference:
Gray: Below average volume (low activity)
Blue: Near average volume (normal activity)
Green: Above average volume (potential breakout/breakdown)
Red: Significantly above average volume (high-confidence move)
Plots an Orange Reference Line – Represents the average volume for easy comparison.
Usage:
Adjust "Average Volume Period" to set the moving average length for volume.
Modify "Above Average" and "High Volume" multipliers to fine-tune breakout/breakdown sensitivity.
Look for green and red bars to confirm strong moves in price action.
This indicator can help confirm the validity of breakouts and breakdowns by visually emphasizing volume surges. 🚀
Explanation of Presets in the Indicator
The indicator comes with three user-configurable settings that determine how volume is analyzed and displayed. Here’s what they do and why they matter:
1. Average Volume Period (Default: 50)
This setting controls the number of past bars used to calculate the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume.
A larger value (e.g., 100) smooths out fluctuations and gives a broader view of average volume trends.
A smaller value (e.g., 20) makes the average more responsive to recent volume changes.
2. Above Average Threshold (Multiplier, Default: 1.5)
This defines the first level of volume increase that is considered above average.
If the current volume is 1.5 times greater than the moving average volume, the histogram bar turns green.
You can lower this value (e.g., 1.2) to make the indicator more sensitive or increase it (e.g., 2.0) to filter out smaller spikes.
3. High Volume Threshold (Multiplier, Default: 2.5)
This determines the threshold for what is considered significantly above average volume.
If the current volume is 2.5 times greater than the moving average volume, the histogram bar turns red.
This setting helps highlight extremely strong volume surges, which are more likely to indicate high-confidence breakouts or breakdowns.
How to Adjust These Presets for Different Market Conditions
If you trade high-volatility assets, you might want to increase the multipliers (e.g., 2.0 and 3.5) to focus only on the strongest moves.
If you trade low-liquidity assets, you might need to lower the multipliers (e.g., 1.2 and 2.0) to capture smaller but meaningful volume shifts.
Short-term traders (scalping/day trading) may prefer a lower average volume period (e.g., 20) to get faster signals.
By tweaking these settings, you can adapt the indicator to your trading style and the asset you’re analyzing. 🚀
Relative Volume at TimeThe Relative Volume at Time indicator (RVOL) is a simple modification of the original Relative Volume at Time script available in TradingView’s public library. It doesn’t change how the indicator works but includes two small adjustments:
Added Color Options – The ability to customize the colors of the volume bars, which was important to me as I use this indicator all the time and wanted more visually suitable colors.
Renamed Short Title – The abbreviation "RVOL" replaces "RelVol", as it's a more commonly used term in trading.
Aside from these small tweaks, the indicator retains all of its original functionality, including the ability to set an anchor timeframe, choose between Regular and Cumulative volume calculation modes, and adjust unconfirmed volume for incomplete bars.
This version exists simply because I needed a more personalized display for an indicator that I rely on daily.
How It Works
The Relative Volume at Time indicator compares the current volume to the average volume at the same time in previous sessions. This helps determine if today’s activity is higher or lower than usual.
Examples
On a daily chart (1D timeframe, length = 10), each volume bar compares today's volume to the average volume at the same time over the last 10 days. If today’s volume is higher than usual at this moment, the bar will reflect that.
On an hourly chart (1H timeframe, length = 5), each hourly volume bar compares the current hour’s volume to the same hour in the past 5 days. If the 10 AM bar is high, it means today's 10 AM volume is greater than the average of the past 5 sessions at 10 AM.
On a weekly chart (1W timeframe, length = 8), the indicator compares this week’s volume to the average of the last 8 weeks. A higher bar means this week is seeing significantly more volume than usual.
This logic applies to any timeframe. It always compares the current volume to past volumes at the same point in time.
@Julien_Eche

Volume Average % Cross - ChartVolume Average Percentage Cross Indicator - Chart
This version is specialized for notifications on your chart. If you wish to see notifications on your volume bars please choose "Volume Average Percentage Cross Indicator - Default".
What is the Volume Average % Cross - Chart Indicator you might ask yourself - what is it for?
I will tell you!
Use Case:
In my Indicator you have an Input to set the period for the volume average period.
Once the volume average period is calculated it is now necessary to choose the percentage value.
What is the percentage value?
The percentage value multiplies the past volume bar with a positive percentage value and a negative percentage value. I give this calculation the name "VolPercentage".
If the volume average is below the negative VolPercentage Value it means that the last volume bar is stronger than the volume average period by the percentage you set the percentage value input at.
If the volume average is above the positive VolPercentage Value it means that the last volume bar is weaker than the volume average period by the percentage you set the percentage value input at.
That means that if for example the percentage value would be 20 it would require the volume average to be 20% above the past volume bar.
That means that if for example the percentage value would be 20 it would require the volume average to be 20% lower than the past volume bar.
Once I uploaded my 100 Indicators I will accurately describe each indicator with videos, this will be huge!
Interpretation:
Volume is the amount of market participants who bought in a candlestick bar a set amount of shares at varying prices from within the bar itself.
If volume decreases it means that there has been fewer market participants and if it increases it means that there is an increase of market participants.
If this is used with candlestick patterns it helps tremendously to identify strong or weak doji candlesticks.
Coloured Volume Grid 1.0Candles are coloured based on relative price and volume:
- If today’s closing price and volume are greater than (n) bars ago, color today’s volume bar green.
- If today’s closing price is greater than (n) bars ago but volume is not, color today’s volume bar lime.
- Similarly, if today’s closing price and volume is less than (n) bars ago, color today’s volume bar orange.
- If today’s closing price is less than (n) bars ago but volume is not, color today’s volume bar red.
The above logic in itself gives pretty remarkable considering how simple the idea is. I have added a multi-timeframe feature where the same logic is applied to 4 other timeframes. This way you can quickly be aware without having to check. There are four layers and the default settings show (from top to bottom) daily, 4h, 1h and 15m
All timeframes are adjustable in the settings.

Volume Surge Momentum Detector [CHE]Volume Surge Momentum Detector – Discover explosive price movements fueled by sudden volume spikes.
Volume Surge Momentum Detector – Capture Key Inflection Points Using Volume Dynamics
Description:
This indicator helps traders identify highprobability entries by focusing on volume dynamics. Significant price movements often occur when interest in a stock rises, and this is reflected in volume spikes. The Volume Analysis Indicator is designed to detect key inflection points such as breakouts and capitulations by analyzing the relationship between volume and price. It enables traders to avoid false breakouts, identify trend exhaustion, and make informed trading decisions.
Key Features:
VolumeBased Inflection Points: The indicator tracks the volume levels to detect when there is significant interest in a stock. High volume signals increased market participation, often preceding large price moves.
Breakout Detection: It identifies breakouts by detecting price moves beyond a key level (the highest price over a certain period) along with a volume spike, indicating strong momentum.
Capitulation Detection: Capitulation is detected when a strong trend weakens and reverses with increased volume, signaling potential trend exhaustion.
Volume Thresholds: By using statistical measures, the indicator identifies unusually high or low volume based on the average volume and standard deviations, helping traders to spot major turning points in the market.
This tool simplifies volume bar analysis by automatically highlighting significant volume events, which often indicate large upcoming price movements.
Detailed Breakdown:
1. Volume as a Catalyst for Price Movements:
Volume is essential for price action. Without sufficient volume, price moves may not be sustained. This indicator highlights moments of increased market interest by tracking significant volume increases, helping traders stay ahead of major price movements.
2. Breakouts and Capitulation Detection:
Breakout: Detected when the volume exceeds an upper threshold (based on two standard deviations above the average volume) and the price breaks above the highest close of the previous period. These moments are marked with green labels on the chart.
Capitulation: Detected when volume increases significantly but the trend cannot sustain itself, and the price reverses below the lowest close of the previous period. These moments are marked with red labels on the chart, indicating potential trend exhaustion.
3. Sentiment and Market Dynamics:
Market sentiment can lead to price inflections when one side of the market becomes overbought or exhausted. Volume spikes in either direction provide clues as to whether a trend will continue or reverse. This indicator helps identify these critical points by monitoring volume patterns.
4. Visual Representation:
Green Bars: High volume indicating strong market interest or momentum.
Red Bars: Low volume, signaling potential lack of interest or exhaustion.
Gray Bars: Normal volume, helping to distinguish significant market events from regular activity.
Breakout and Capitulation Labels: Green labels for breakouts and red labels for capitulation points are shown directly on the chart for easy reference.
5. Alerts for Key Signals:
Breakout Alert: Notifies traders when a breakout occurs with strong volume, indicating a potential for significant price movement.
Capitulation Alert: Alerts traders when a capitulation occurs, suggesting a trend reversal.
High and Low Volume Alerts: Receive notifications when the volume exceeds the upper or lower thresholds, highlighting key moments of market interest or disinterest.
Why This Indicator Matters:
Traders often miss significant price moves or enter too late. This indicator helps traders by identifying highprobability entry points before the stock makes major moves. By focusing on volume spikes, the indicator provides insight into market sentiment and allows traders to act quickly.
How It Works:
1. Calculate Volume Significance: The indicator calculates the average volume over a userdefined period (`length`) and identifies significant deviations using standard deviations.
2. Mark Key Levels: Breakouts are detected when price moves above recent highs with significant volume, while capitulation is flagged when trends show exhaustion with a volume spike and price reversal.
3. Receive Alerts: Traders can set up alerts for key events like breakouts, capitulations, and significant volume changes to stay informed in realtime.
Perfect For:
Active traders looking to spot early market movements driven by volume changes.
Traders who want to avoid false breakouts by confirming price moves with volume spikes.
Swing traders identifying capitulation points to reduce exposure or enter positions on trend reversals.
How to Use:
Customize the "Average Period" to determine how many bars are used to calculate the average volume.
Adjust the "Multiplier for Standard Deviation" to finetune the sensitivity of high and low volume detection.
Enable alerts to receive realtime notifications for breakouts, capitulations, or volume spikes.
Conclusion:
Volume analysis is essential to understanding stock movements. This indicator simplifies the process of identifying breakouts and capitulation points by using volume dynamics. Whether you are a beginner looking for powerful tools or an experienced trader refining your strategy, this indicator offers valuable insights into market behavior driven by volume.
Additional Insights:
1. Statistical Significance: The use of standard deviations to identify high and low volume gives the indicator a statistical basis, helping to reduce noise and false signals.
2. Flexible Alerts: Traders can set up custom alerts based on their trading preferences, whether they focus on volume changes or price breakouts and reversals.
