PivotX - Exhaustion & Pivot Detection
## Description
**PivotX** is a powerful visual indicator that helps traders identify when major buying or selling pressure has exhausted and when significant market reversals are likely to occur. Think of it as your market "exhaustion detector" that spots the exact moments when one side of the market runs out of steam.
### What Does PivotX Do?
PivotX watches for three critical market conditions:
1. **Selling Exhaustion** - When sellers have pushed price down aggressively but can't push it lower anymore. This is when buyers step in and price often reverses upward.
2. **Buying Exhaustion** - When buyers have pushed price up aggressively but can't push it higher anymore. This is when sellers step in and price often reverses downward.
3. **Major Pivot Points** - Key price levels where the market has made significant turns, marking important support (bottoms) and resistance (tops).
### How It Works (Simple Explanation)
Imagine a tug-of-war between buyers and sellers:
- When sellers are winning (price dropping), PivotX watches for when they get tired
- When buyers are winning (price rising), PivotX watches for when they get tired
- When one side gets exhausted, the other side usually takes over - that's when reversals happen!
PivotX uses multiple signals to confirm exhaustion:
- Volume patterns (when trading activity slows down after a big move)
- Price stabilization (when price stops moving in one direction)
- Absorption patterns (when high volume doesn't move price much - someone is absorbing the pressure)
- Support/Resistance levels (when price bounces off key levels)
### Visual Signals
**Green X Markers** (Below Price)
- Appears when selling has exhausted
- Buyers are stepping in
- Potential upward reversal signal
**Red X Markers** (Above Price)
- Appears when buying has exhausted
- Sellers are stepping in
- Potential downward reversal signal
**Yellow Diamonds**
- Marks major pivot points (support/resistance)
- Shows where significant price turns occurred
- Helps identify key levels for future trades
**Neon Green/Red Lines**
- Support lines (green) - where price found a bottom
- Resistance lines (red) - where price found a top
- These levels often act as future support/resistance
### Best Use Cases
✅ **Swing Trading** - Catch reversals at major pivot points
✅ **Scalping** - Enter trades when exhaustion is confirmed
✅ **Trend Following** - Identify when trends are losing steam
✅ **Support/Resistance Trading** - Use pivot lines as key levels
✅ **Reversal Trading** - Enter counter-trend trades at exhaustion points
### Settings Explained
**Detection Settings:**
- **Lookback Period** - How many bars to analyze (default: 20)
- **Volume Threshold** - Minimum volume spike to consider (default: 1.5x average)
- **Exhaustion Periods** - Bars to check for exhaustion signals (default: 3)
- **Min Price Move %** - Minimum price movement to trigger analysis (default: 2%)
**Pivot Detection:**
- **Pivot Strength** - Bars on each side for pivot confirmation (default: 3)
- Higher = fewer but stronger pivots
- Lower = more but weaker pivots
**Visual Settings:**
- Toggle exhaustion markers, pivot points, and support/resistance lines
- Customize colors to match your chart theme
### Pro Tips
1. **Wait for Confirmation** - PivotX requires multiple signals before showing exhaustion. This reduces false signals but means you might miss some early entries.
2. **Combine with Price Action** - Use PivotX signals with candlestick patterns for stronger confirmation.
3. **Watch the Pivot Lines** - The support/resistance lines often act as key levels. Price bouncing off these lines can be strong reversal signals.
4. **Volume Matters** - The indicator is more reliable when volume patterns confirm the exhaustion signals.
5. **Timeframe Flexibility** - Works on all timeframes, but signals on higher timeframes (4H, Daily) tend to be more reliable.
### What Makes PivotX Unique?
Unlike simple pivot indicators, PivotX combines:
- Volume exhaustion analysis
- Price action confirmation
- Multi-signal validation
- Clean, non-intrusive visualization
- Automatic support/resistance line drawing
This multi-layered approach helps filter out noise and focus on high-probability reversal setups.
### Important Notes
⚠️ **Not Financial Advice** - This indicator is a tool, not a guarantee. Always use proper risk management.
⚠️ **No Indicator is Perfect** - PivotX helps identify potential reversals, but markets can be unpredictable. Always use stop losses.
⚠️ **Combine with Other Analysis** - For best results, use PivotX alongside other technical analysis tools and your trading strategy.

DeltaBurst Locator ## DeltaBurst Locator
DeltaBurst Locator is a sponsorship detector that divides OBV impulse by price thrust, normalizes the ratio, and cross-checks it against a higher timeframe confirmation stream. The oscillator turns the abstract "is this move real?" question into a precise number, exposing accumulation, distribution, and exhaustion across futures and stocks.
HOW IT WORKS
OBV Impulse vs. Price Change – Smoothed deltas of On-Balance Volume and price are ratioed, then normalized using a hyperbolic tangent function to prevent single prints from dominating.
Signal vs. Confirmation – A short EMA produces the execution signal while a higher-timeframe request.security() feed validates whether broader flows agree.
Spectrum Classification – Expansion/compression metrics grade whether current aggression is intense or fading, while ±0.65 bands define exhaust/vacuum zones.
Slope Divergences – Linear regression slopes on both price and the ratio expose bullish/bearish sponsorship mismatches before candles reverse.
HOW TO USE IT
Breakout Validation : Only chase breakouts when both local and higher-timeframe ratios are on the same side of zero; mixed signals suggest liquidity is fading.
Absorption Trades : When the histogram spikes beyond ±0.65 but the EMA lags, expect absorption; combine with price structure for pinpoint reversals.
News/Event Monitoring : During earnings or macro releases, watch for ratio collapses with price still rising—this flags forced moves driven by hedging rather than real demand.
VISUAL FEATURES
Color logic: Positive sponsorship fills teal, negative fills crimson against the zero line, making intent obvious at a glance.
Optional markers: Burst triangles and divergence dots can be enabled when you need explicit annotations or left off for a minimalist panel.
Compression heatmap: Background shading communicates whether the market is coiling (high compression) or erupting (low compression).
Dashboard: Displays the live ratio, higher-timeframe ratio, and agreement state to speed up scanning across tickers.
PARAMETERS
Fast Pulse Length (default: 5): Controls the smoothing window for price change detection.
Slow Equilibrium Length (default: 34): Window for expansion/compression calculation.
OBV Smooth (default: 8): Smoothing period for OBV impulse calculation.
Ratio Ceiling (default: 3.0): Controls how aggressively values saturate; raise for high-volatility tickers.
Signal EMA (default: 4): EMA period for the signal line.
Confirmation Timeframe (default: 240): Pick a higher anchor (e.g., 4H) to validate intraday moves.
Divergence Window (default: 21): Window for slope-based divergence detection.
Show Burst Markers (default: disabled): Toggle burst triangles on demand.
Show Divergence Markers (default: disabled): Toggle divergence dots on demand.
Show Delta Dashboard (default: enabled): Hide when screen space is limited; leave on for desk broadcasts.
ALERTS
The indicator includes four alert conditions:
DeltaBurst Bull: Spotted a bullish liquidity burst
DeltaBurst Bear: Spotted a bearish liquidity burst
DeltaBurst Bull Div: Detected bullish sponsorship divergence
DeltaBurst Bear Div: Detected bearish sponsorship divergence

Volume Pressure OscillatorThe Volume Pressure Oscillator (VPO) is a momentum-based indicator that measures the directional pressure of cumulative volume delta (CVD) combined with price efficiency. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with readings above 50 indicating net buying pressure and readings below 50 indicating net selling pressure.
The indicator is designed to identify the strength and sustainability of volume-driven trends while remaining responsive during consolidation periods.
How the Indicator Works
The VPO analyzes volume flow by examining price action at lower timeframes to build a Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD). For each chart bar, the indicator looks at intrabar price movements to classify volume as either buying volume or selling volume. These classifications are accumulated into a running total that tracks net directional volume.
The indicator then measures the momentum of this CVD over both short-term and longer-term periods, providing responsiveness to recent changes while maintaining awareness of the broader trend. These momentum readings are normalized using percentile ranking, which creates a stable 0-100 scale that works consistently across different instruments and market conditions.
A key feature is the extreme zone persistence mechanism. When the indicator enters extreme zones (above 80 or below 20), it maintains elevated readings as long as volume pressure continues in the same direction. This allows the VPO to stay in extreme zones during strong trends rather than quickly reverting to neutral, making it useful for identifying sustained volume pressure rather than just temporary spikes.
What Makes This Indicator Different
While many indicators measure volume or volume delta, the VPO specifically measures how aggressively CVD is currently changing and whether that pressure is being sustained. It's the difference between knowing "more volume has accumulated on the buy side" versus "buying pressure is intensifying right now and shows signs of continuation."
1. Focus on CVD Momentum, Not CVD Levels
Most CVD indicators display the cumulative volume delta as a line that trends up or down indefinitely. The VPO is fundamentally different - it measures the slope of CVD rather than the absolute level. This transforms CVD from an unbounded cumulative metric into a bounded 0-100 oscillator that shows the intensity and direction of current volume pressure, not just the historical accumulation.
2. Designed to Stay in Extremes During Trends
Unlike traditional oscillators that treat extreme readings (above 80 or below 20) as overbought/oversold reversal signals, the VPO is engineered to oscillate within extreme zones during strong trends. When sustained buying or selling pressure exists, the indicator remains elevated (e.g., 80-95 or 5-20) rather than quickly reverting to neutral. This makes it useful for trend continuation identification rather than exclusively for reversal trading.
3. Percentile-Based Normalization
The VPO uses percentile ranking over a lookback window, which provides consistent behavior across different instruments, timeframes, and volatility regimes without constant recalibration.
4. Dual-Timeframe Momentum Synthesis
The indicator simultaneously considers short-term CVD momentum (responsive to recent changes) and longer-term CVD momentum (tracking trend direction), weighted and combined with a slow-moving trend bias. This multi-timeframe approach helps it stay responsive in ranging markets while maintaining context during trends.
How to Use the Indicator
Understanding the Zones:
80-100 (Strong Buying Pressure): CVD momentum is strongly positive. In trending markets, the indicator oscillates within this zone rather than immediately reverting to neutral. This suggests sustained accumulation and trend continuation probability.
60-80 (Moderate Buying): Positive volume pressure but not extreme. Suitable for identifying pullback entry opportunities within uptrends.
40-60 (Neutral Zone): Volume pressure is balanced or unclear. No strong directional edge from volume. Often seen during consolidation or trend transitions.
20-40 (Moderate Selling): Negative volume pressure developing. May indicate distribution or downtrend continuation setups.
0-20 (Strong Selling Pressure): CVD momentum is strongly negative. During downtrends, sustained readings in this zone suggest continued distribution and downside follow-through probability.
Practical Applications:
Trend Confirmation: When price makes new highs/lows, check if VPO confirms with similarly elevated readings. Divergences (price making new highs while VPO fails to reach prior highs) may indicate weakening momentum.
Range Trading: During consolidation, the VPO typically oscillates between 30-70. Readings toward the low end of the range (30-40) may present accumulation opportunities, while readings at the high end (60-70) may indicate distribution zones.
Extreme Persistence: If VPO reaches 90+ or drops below 10, this indicates exceptional volume pressure. Rather than fading these extremes immediately, monitor whether the indicator stays elevated. Sustained extreme readings suggest strong trend continuation potential.
Context with Price Action: The VPO is most effective when combined with price action or other orderflow indicators. Use the indicator to gauge whether volume is confirming or contradicting.
What the Indicator Does NOT Do:
It does not provide specific entry or exit signals
It does not predict future price direction
It does not guarantee profitable trades
It should not be used as a standalone trading system
Settings Explanation
Momentum Period (Default: 14)
This parameter controls the lookback period for CVD rate-of-change calculations.
Lower values (5-10): Make the indicator more responsive to recent volume changes. Useful for shorter-term trading and more active oscillation. May produce more whipsaws in choppy markets.
Default value (14): Provides balanced responsiveness while filtering out most noise. Suitable for swing trading and daily timeframe analysis.
Higher values (20-50): Create smoother readings and focus on longer-term volume trends. Better for position trading and reducing false signals, but with slower reaction to genuine changes in volume pressure.
Important Notes:
This indicator requires intrabar data to function properly. On some instruments or timeframes where lower timeframe data is not available, the indicator may not display.
The indicator uses request.security_lower_tf() which has a limit of intrabars. On higher timeframes, this provides extensive history, but on very low timeframes (<1-minute charts), the indicator may only cover limited historical bars.
Volume data quality varies by exchange and instrument. The indicator's effectiveness depends on accurate volume reporting from the data feed.

Volumetric Spectrogram [by Oberlunar]Volumetric Spectrogram
A two-pole, price-relative volume profiler that turns regional buy/sell pressure into clean oscillators and actionable regimes in a multi-broker setup.
What it measures
The indicator divides the recent price span into bins and accumulates buy vs. sell volume in each bin, then summarises two regions with respect to the current price:
Upper (↑) — volume that traded above the current price (overhead supply/demand).
Lower (↓) — volume that traded below the current price (underfoot bid/pressure).
Per region, it computes BUY% and SELL%, then forms two normalised oscillators in :
Upper Osc = Upper(BUY%) − Upper(SELL%) → positive when overhead offers are being lifted (breakout acceptance), negative when overhead sell pressure dominates (resistance).
Lower Osc = Lower(BUY%) − Lower(SELL%) → positive when sub-price bids strengthen (support/absorption), negative when selling persists beneath price (weak underbelly).
Both oscillators are optionally smoothed with EMA and can be filled to zero or between curves for quick polarity/strength reading.
Candle-fill modes across brokers
The indicator supports multiple candle-fill policies tied to cross-broker volumetric agreement (e.g., spectral/range-only fills when ≥N brokers align above 70% bullish or below 20% bearish Buy%). This makes regime and pressure shifts visually explicit while filtering out unconfirmed noise.
How it works (core algorithm)
Over a lookback window, find the high/low and split the range into N bins .
For each historical bar, approximate “buy” vs “sell” volume using candle direction and the close relative to each bin’s midprice; update left/right profiles per bin.
Aggregate bins above the current price into the Upper region and bins below into the Lower region; compute regional totals and percentages.
Convert to signed oscillators and smooth (EMA length per input).
Scenario engine (table, every bar)
A compact table reports, for Upper/Lower: BUY Vol, SELL Vol, BUY%, SELL%, and Net%. A classifier labels 8 regimes based on oscillator sign and recent expansion/decay: Sync Long/Short (Expanding/Decaying), Opposite Signs (Widening/Converging), and Tilts (Upper/Lower). This helps distinguish trend continuation, fade risk, compression before break, and asymmetric pressure (e.g., “Tilt Lower — bid/support strengthening”).
# Example strategies and annotated cases:
There are different operational strategies:
1) Bottle-neck Strategy with multi-broker confirmation
When both oscillators are red and they compress toward the zero line (a bottle-neck [/i>), if the squeeze does not flip into the opposite trend but instead resolves in the same direction, you have a continuation setup that can be exploited:
• Pattern: both oscillators red → short, visible contraction (narrow, low-variance cluster) → break of the cluster lows → background shadow bars align bearish (multi-broker agreement).
Example:
This sequence often supports a 1.5–2.5 R/R trade, as in:
Bullish mirror
If both oscillators are teal and compress, then expand upward with multi-broker agreement, the scenario becomes bullish after several bars; the position can be profitable with a reasonable risk setup:
Example:
Follow-through:
Here are the additional, English “playbook” examples you can append to the previous description.
2) Dual-confirmation on volume spikes + multi-broker checks
When pronounced volumetric spikes appear (up or down), trend often reverses sharply. In the figure, the circles highlight the spikes; once the spike subsides (reversion toward baseline), the oscillator turns bullish. The double confirmation of two consecutive minimum spikes acts as support for an ensuing up-move, with fill colors confirming direction.
Chart:
Even with a single spike confirmation, the reversion from an extreme often provides actionable long setups.
3) Volume-pressure + regime-change (multi-broker)
A prospective long configuration emerges when bullish volumetric pressure dominates and bearish pressure fades, especially if this occurs after a lateral phase, followed by a bullish volume spike and multi-broker confirmation .
Chart:
Shadow bars subsequently confirm continuation in a bullish regime; however, a possible regime change is flagged by the scenario classifier and by a color flip in the volumetric borders ( “Possible regime change, but without multi-broker confirmation.” is an appropriate label when applicable).
Chart:
After a verified mean-reversion, price transitions into a bearish configuration: both oscillators turn red. One can wait for a pullback and seek short entries.
Chart:
As shown here, the regime change is anticipated well in advance by the oscillators and multi-broker pressure:
Chart:
4) Contrastive regime-shift with multi-broker validation
In a contrastive trading phase, the lower volumetric oscillator flips color first—buyers start attacking. The first set of background shadow bars does not agree with the regime flip; the second set does. This sequence (oscillator flip → later multi-broker agreement) is a robust early sign of a potential long setup.
Chart:
At the multi-broker level, all shadow bars turn fully green and the setup becomes unambiguously bullish.
Chart:
Note that bearish pressure can still be non-trivial on the volumetric scale—even if it does not reach prior extreme minima—so risk controls should reflect the residual supply.
Delta-bar coloring (optional)
Bars (or candle overlays) can be tinted by a multi-venue weighted bias:
Choose venues (OKX, Coinbase, Bybit, Binance, BlackBull…).
Weight by Equal / Last Volume / SMA Volume.
Apply deadband to suppress flicker around neutrality and a gamma curve to modulate opacity with |bias|.
This layer is independent of the spectrogram core but provides immediate market-wide flow context, consistent with the table and fills.
Inputs (essentials)
Calculation Period and Bins — resolution and depth of the price-range histogram.
EMA length — smoothing per oscillator (optional)
Fill options — to zero / between curves, gradual opacity by |osc|, min/max alpha.
Delta Bar — enable tinting, gamma, neutral band; venue list and weighting mode.
Reading guide
Upper > 0 & expanding : overhead supply is being lifted → breakout acceptance risk rises.
Lower > 0 & expanding : sub-price bids strengthen → pullbacks more likely to absorb.
Opposite signs widening : tug-of-war; avoid late entries.
Converging : compression → prepare for break.
Use the table’s regime label to keep the narrative honest bar-by-bar.
Notes & limits
Buy/Sell attribution uses candle direction and range partitioning (no L2/tick tape).
Venue aggregation relies on per-exchange volume and your chosen weighting; symbols must align (e.g., BTCUSDT pairs).
Oscillators are relative to the current price (regional) by design; they complement, not replace, classical volume profile.

Delta Arbitrage [by Oberlunar]Delta Arbitrage turns fragmented exchange activity into a single, readable pulse. Each broker breathes at its own rhythm; this tool measures the share of “buy vs. sell” participation per broker, weights those brokers by liquidity/activity, and blends them into one continuous bias. The result is a chart you can read in seconds: aqua when buy-side dominates, red when sell-side does—stronger shades for stronger imbalances.
Delta Arbitrage indicator supports several ways to colour candles based on the aggregated, cross-venue delta, so you can match visual feedback to the strength/consensus of flow.
Examples
LONG opportunity — broad bullish agreement (>70% weighted Buy%)
In this case, a LONG setup formed because a high proportion of brokers simultaneously pushed bullish volumetric deltas (>70%).
The corridor then stayed positive across multiple bars, with sustained long strength in agreement across venues:
Follow-through:
SHORT opportunity — broad bearish agreement (<20% weighted Buy%)
Here, a SHORT setup formed because a high proportion of brokers simultaneously pushed bearish volumetric deltas (<20%).
The corridor remained negative over several bars, showing high-intensity short pressure in cross-venue agreement:
Follow-through:
Spectral mode
You can enable the spectral mode, where range candles are colored only when multiple brokers are in volumetric agreement. You’ll see bullish pressure when weighted Buy% exceeds ~70%; when direction changes, range candles fade out and the lower tiles flip red to reflect rising short pressure.
Example:
How it’s built (in plain words)
For every selected broker, the script computes a robust Buy% over a rolling window and maps it to a signed bias (−1…+1).
Venues are then combined with flexible weighting—Equal, Last Volume, SMA Volume, or Relative-to-SMA—to emphasise who is active now .
A small neutral band near zero calms noise; an intensity curve (gamma) makes strong pushes visually obvious without overshooting weak ones.
What you see
Tinted bars/background : the aggregate bias colours the chart so the prevailing side is instantly clear.
Dashboard : a compact meter for each venue (SELL⇄BUY), its normalised weight, and exact Buy%/bias, plus a summary line for the weighted & unweighted aggregates. It shows whether one venue is dragging the whole market or if participation is broad.
Lower panel (timeline) : a tile-per-bar strip using the same bias logic. Long, saturated runs = sustained participation; choppy, desaturated tiles around zero = balance/compression. The strip’s height is fixed vs. a recent range, so it remains legible on any zoom.
How to act on it (minimal, auditable rules)
Entries: a one-shot arrow when the weighted Buy% crosses a high/low threshold (e.g., >70 for longs, <30 for shorts).
Exits: trail the indicator itself—close when the weighted Buy% retraces by a set number of points from its peak (long) or trough (short).
Context: prefer entries that align with a fresh, persistent run in the lower strip and supportive rows in the dashboard; fade/exit when the strip desaturates or flips.
Do not operate when the average volumetric pressure (avg) is around 50% +- 15%
Why it matters
This is not tick-level microstructure; it’s a fast, stable cross-venue proxy designed for operational use on any timeframe. By unifying “who’s in charge, for how long, and how strongly,” the indicator reduces discretionary noise and turns participation into a tradable, testable context.

Advanced Weis Wave Volume [Afnan]Advanced Weis Wave Volume is an enhanced upgrade of the classic Weis Wave concept. It measures accumulated volume within price swings to show where buying and selling pressure truly shift — but with one major edge: optional consolidation detection.
Most wave volume indicators simply plot bullish and bearish waves. Advanced Weis Wave Volume goes further by giving you the choice to highlight sideways or low-momentum consolidation phases, making it easy to spot when the market lacks real momentum. This helps traders instantly filter out weak, low-probability setups and focus only on the high-energy waves that truly matter.
⚙️ Key Features
Weis Wave Method – Uses ATR-based wave calculation to identify directional volume accumulation with precision.
Optional Consolidation Highlighting – You control it. Enable or disable consolidation detection based on your trading style. When enabled, it visually marks low-momentum or range-bound conditions, helping you instantly recognize when the market is consolidating.
Smart Volume Alignment – Choose to include or exclude the reversal candle's volume in new waves for more accurate readings.
Clear Visuals – Color-coded waves for Bullish (Green), Bearish (Red), and optional Consolidation (Orange) phases.
Compact Status Table – Displays the current market condition (Bullish, Bearish, or Consolidation) directly on your chart.
Flexible Display Options – Plot all waves above zero line, customize colors, and control what information you see.
💡 Why This Indicator Is Superior
✅ vs. Other Wave Volume Indicators:
Others only show waves; they can't identify consolidation. Advanced Weis Wave Volume gives you the option to enable consolidation detection — saving you time by automatically filtering weak market phases when you need it.
✅ vs. Standard Volume Bars:
Regular volume bars show isolated candle data. Advanced Weis Wave Volume shows accumulated directional pressure, revealing true trend strength and institutional activity.
✅ vs. Basic Weis Wave Indicators:
Standard Weis Wave indicators lack consolidation awareness. This indicator adds that layer of intelligence while keeping the classic wave calculation intact.
Bottom Line:
This is the only Weis Wave volume indicator that gives you control over consolidation filtering. Others show every move equally — Advanced Weis Wave Volume shows what actually matters, when you want it to.
📈 How to Use
Trading with the Waves:
🟢 Green Waves (Bullish): Building buying pressure — look for long setups.
🔴 Red Waves (Bearish): Rising selling pressure
🟠 Orange Zones (Consolidation): (When enabled) Market is ranging — avoid new trades .
Large waves: Strong trends and high-probability continuations.
Shrinking waves: Weakening momentum or possible reversal ahead.
Critical Insight - Avoiding False Volume Signals:
Large waves aren't always reliable. If you see a wave colored in orange (consolidation), it means the market was moving sideways but no real directional momentum.
This is crucial because:
❌ A big green wave in consolidation ≠ strong upside buying
❌ A big red wave in consolidation ≠ strong downside selling
✅ These are just range-bound volume accumulations that mislead traders
With consolidation detection enabled, you can instantly identify and ignore these deceptive Consolidation waves, focusing only on directional volume that actually reflects true buying or selling pressure. This prevents you from entering trades based on false volume signals during sideways markets.
📌 Practical Applications:
Breakout Confirmation: Real breakouts show expanding volume waves; false breakouts show weak waves or consolidation-marked volume.
Trend Validation: In a healthy trend, waves in the direction of the move are stronger, larger, and show clear directional color (green/red).
Consolidation Avoidance: (When enabled) Orange zones warn you to step aside and preserve capital — even if the wave looks large. Size doesn't matter if momentum is absent.
Filter False Volume: Avoid trading large waves that occur during consolidation — they don't represent genuine directional moves, just sideways accumulation.
Divergence Detection: Price makes new highs/lows, but wave volume shrinks — a sign of exhaustion or reversal.
Analyzing Ranges: During accumulation or distribution, Advanced Weis Wave Volume helps identify how institutional players are participating within the range — revealing when a breakout is likely to occur.
✨ The Competitive Advantage
Many Weis Wave indicators exist on TradingView - they all show volume waves. Only Advanced Weis Wave Volume gives you optional consolidation detection. That single feature transforms wave volume from a pure analysis tool into a flexible trading system that adapts to your style.
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile is a reimagined take on volume profile analysis. Instead of plotting a static horizontal histogram on the side of your chart, this indicator projects dynamic volume trace lines directly onto the price action. Each bin is color-graded according to its relative strength, creating a living “volume skeleton” of the market. The orange trace highlights the current Point of Control (POC)—the price level with maximum historical traded volume within the lookback window. On the right side, the tool builds a mini profile, showing absolute volume per bin alongside its percentage share, where the POC always represents 100% strength .
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dynamic On-Chart Bins:
The range between highest high and lowest low is split into 25 bins. Each bin is drawn as a horizontal trace line across the lookback chart period.
Gradient Color Encoding:
Trace lines fade from transparent to teal depending on relative volume size. The more intense the teal, the stronger the historical traded activity at that level.
Automatic POC Highlight:
The bin with the highest aggregated volume is flagged with an orange line . This POC adapts bar-by-bar as volume distribution shifts.
Right-Side Volume Profile:
At the chart’s right edge, the script prints a box-style profile. Each bin shows:
• Total volume (absolute units).
• Percentage of max volume, in parentheses (POC bin = 100%).
This gives both raw and normalized context at a glance.
Adjustable Lookback Window:
The lookback defines how many bars feed the profile. Increase for stable HTF zones or decrease for responsive intraday distributions.
POC Toggle & Styling:
Optionally toggle POC highlighting on/off, adjust colors, and set line thickness for better integration with your chart theme.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
Step Sizing:
over last 100 bars is divided by to calculate bin height.
Volume Aggregation:
For each bar in the , the script checks which bin the close falls into, then adds that bar’s volume to the bin’s counter.
Gradient Mapping:
Bin volume is normalized against the max volume across all bins. That value is mapped onto a gradient from transparent → teal.
POC Logic:
The bin with highest volume is colored orange both on the dynamic trace and in the right-side profile.
Right-Hand Profile:
Boxes are drawn for each bin proportional to volume / maxVolume × 50 units, with text labels showing both absolute volume and normalized %.
⯁ USAGE
Use the orange trace as the dominant “magnet” level—price often gravitates to the POC.
Watch for clusters of strong teal traces as areas of high acceptance; thin or faint zones mark low-liquidity gaps prone to fast moves.
On intraday charts, tighten lookback to reveal session-based distributions . For swing or position trading, expand lookback to surface more durable volume shelves.
Compare the right-side profile % to judge how “top-heavy” or “bottom-heavy” the current distribution is.
Use bright, intense color traces as context for confluence with structure, OBs, or liquidity hunts.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile takes the traditional volume profile and fuses it into the body of price itself. Instead of a fixed sidebar, you see gradient traces layered directly on the chart, giving real-time context of where volume concentrated and where price may be drawn. With built-in POC highlighting, normalized % readouts, and an adaptive right-side profile, it offers both precision levels and market structure awareness in a cleaner, more intuitive form.
Deep in the Tape – VSA Educational (Invite Only)Deep in the Tape – VSA Educational (Invite-Only)
Overview
This invite-only study is built entirely on the Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) methodology developed by Tom Williams. VSA examines the interplay of volume, spread (bar range), and closing position to highlight the footprints of professional activity.
The aim of this tool is educational: to make it easier for traders to study how supply and demand pressures appear on the chart in real time. It does not generate trading advice, but instead plots markers based on classical VSA principles so students of the method can recognize strength, weakness, confirmations, and traps without the cryptic complexity often found in raw VSA study.
What It Displays
Key VSA Events (visual markers on the chart):
Stopping Volume (SV): Wide down bars with climactic volume closing off the lows.
Selling Climax (SC): Exhaustion selling at the end of a decline, often near bottoms.
Shakeout (SO): A sharp push down that springs back to close strong.
No Supply (NS): Narrow down bar on low volume, showing lack of selling pressure.
No Demand (ND): Narrow up bar on low volume, showing lack of buying interest.
Supply Coming In: Volume surge after an up-move, suggesting sellers active.
Buying Climax (BC): Wide up bar with climactic volume and weakness into the close.
Upthrust (UT): False break above prior highs with a weak close.
End of Rising Market (EoRM): Narrow up bar on very high volume, closing weak, often signaling distribution.
Test Bar: Down bar on very low volume in an uptrend, testing for lack of supply.
Contextual Tools:
Trigger Levels: High/low of ultra-high volume bars projected forward, serving as natural support/resistance levels.
Cluster Zones: Optional shading to mark zones of repeated high-volume activity (potential accumulation/distribution).
Background MA: A simple moving average for context only — not a signal generator.
Interpreting the Markers (Tom Williams Style)
Bullish Background (professional strength):
Events such as SV, SC, SO, and NS.
Best studied when price is trading above trigger levels and above the MA, showing demand in control.
Bearish Background (professional weakness):
Events such as BC, UT, Supply Coming In, and EoRM.
Best studied when price is below trigger levels and below the MA, showing supply dominance.
Multi-Timeframe Context & Market Behavior
A key principle to study with this tool is that higher-timeframe context usually outweighs signals on smaller timeframes. For example:
A short marker on a 5-minute chart often fails if the hourly background is bullish.
Likewise, a bullish signal on a small timeframe is less reliable if higher-timeframe background is bearish.
This highlights an important discipline lesson: not every small signal should be acted upon in isolation. Patience and alignment with the broader background improves study of how professional activity develops.
Channeling & Probing Behavior After Climactic Volume:
After a Stopping Volume (SV) bar on ultra-high volume, the market often enters a sideways channel between the blue (support) and red (resistance) trigger lines.
Professionals may probe the market — for example, dropping price through the lower red line on low volume to test for active sellers. If no significant supply is found, price rallies back inside the channel.
This absorption process may repeat until weakness is removed. Only then do No Supply (NS) or Test bars appear, providing stronger bullish confirmation.
The reverse applies in a bearish background, where No Demand (ND) or weakness confirmations appear after probing and absorption.
Studying these patterns helps traders recognize the probing nature of professional activity, why markets often pause after climactic signals, and how strength or weakness is confirmed over time.
Aggressive Trades (Educational Extension)
In addition to classical confirmations, this study also highlights aggressive follow-through conditions — situations where professionals act quickly after a major VSA event, before the “clean” confirmation appears.
Aggressive Longs may include:
Breakouts immediately above a Stopping Volume (SV) or Selling Climax (SC) high with strong volume.
Shakeout confirmations (price closes above the SO high on effort).
Failure of weakness (e.g., BC/UT/Supply signals that get overrun on strength).
Aggressive Shorts may include:
Confirmed follow-through after Supply Coming In.
Breakdowns after a Buying Climax (BC) or Upthrust (UT).
Shakeout failures where the rally attempt collapses.
End of Rising Market (EoRM) breaks on weakness.
These are marked separately for study. They are not “signals” but rather examples of how strength or weakness can assert itself early.
Failures (Educational Study Only)
Not all setups confirm. In VSA, Tests sometimes fail, and NS/ND bars can be absorbed. These are marked as Failure markers.
Their purpose is purely educational:
To show where expectations do not play out.
To help students see how traps or absorptions form.
To illustrate Tom Williams’ lesson that the market is a testing ground — not a perfect pattern machine.
Why It’s Original
Built directly from Tom Williams’ VSA logic — spread, volume relative to average, wick size, close location, and background context.
Adds projected trigger levels, cluster zones, and aggressive trade markers for educational context.
Designed for clarity and study, removing unnecessary complexity while staying faithful to VSA principles.
Not a mash-up of public scripts — a purpose-built framework for studying supply and demand dynamics.
Disclaimer
This script is for educational and analytical purposes only.
It does not generate buy/sell/alert signals, nor does it provide financial advice.

Volume Spread Analysis — Educational (VSA Study)Volume Spread Analysis — Educational (VSA Study)
Overview
This study is an educational tool built around classic Volume Spread Analysis (VSA), the methodology introduced by Tom Williams.
VSA looks at the relationship between volume, price spread, and closing position to highlight potential supply and demand imbalances.
The script is designed for learning and visual study, not for trade signals. It highlights well-known VSA events directly on the chart and adds reference lines and a colored moving average to help contextualize strength and weakness.
What It Shows
Major VSA Events: Stopping Volume (SV), Selling Climax (SC), Shakeout (SO), No Supply (NS), No Demand (ND), Buying Climax (BC), Upthrust (UT), Supply Coming In (SCI), End of Rising Market (EoRM), and Test Bars.
Trigger Lines: When a strong VSA bar appears, the script draws horizontal levels at the bar’s high and low. These act as educational “zones” where future price reactions can be studied.
Context Moving Average: A dotted MA changes color with price context (black or green when strength is confirmed, red when weakness dominates).
How It Works
Each event is identified using a blend of conditions:
Volume vs. its average
Spread vs. its average
Close location within the bar
Wick analysis (upper/lower shadows)
Short-term trend filters (5- and 10-period SMAs)
By combining these elements, the script maps chart activity to classical VSA definitions.
How to Study With It
Signs of Strength
Look for SC, SV, or SO bars.
Wait until price trades above the blue trigger line drawn from those bars.
Watch for a No Supply (NS) test bar in that zone.
Confirmation comes when the immediate next bar closes up and strong, with higher volume than the prior two bars.
The dotted MA should shift to black or green, showing supportive background strength.
Signs of Weakness
Watch for Supply Coming In, BC, or UT events.
Wait until price trades below the red trigger line.
Look for a No Demand (ND) bar in that area.
Confirmation comes when the following bar closes down and weak, with higher volume than the prior two bars.
The dotted MA should be red, reinforcing weakness.
Originality
This script was written from scratch with a focus on education and clarity. While VSA concepts themselves are public domain, the implementation here is unique:
It combines event detection, trigger zones, and a contextual MA in one framework.
It avoids acting as a trading system and instead provides a practical study workflow that traders can follow step by step.

VSA Volume MonitorDescription
This script provides a clear and adaptable visual representation of volume activity, helping traders understand how current participation compares to recent norms.
It calculates a moving average of volume over a user-defined smoothing window and uses that baseline to classify each bar’s volume into several intensity levels.
Bars are color-coded to reflect these levels:
• Blue for below-average activity
• Green for moderate activity
• Yellow for above-average surges
• Red for exceptionally high or climactic volume
In addition to color-coded bars, the script plots two reference bands that represent the typical (baseline) and elevated (climactic) volume zones.
These bands form a shaded cloud that helps visually separate normal market participation from periods of unusual crowd activity or volatility.
The purpose of this indicator is purely visual and informational — it does not generate buy or sell signals, and it does not predict future price movement.
Instead, it gives traders an at-a-glance view of how market interest is shifting, so they can combine that context with their own analysis or strategy.
This tool is lightweight, easy to read, and designed for use alongside other forms of technical analysis, making it suitable for traders who want to build their own framework for understanding volume behavior.
Volumatic Fair Value Gaps [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Volumatic Fair Value Gaps indicator detects and plots size-filtered Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and immediately analyzes the bullish vs. bearish volume composition inside each gap. When an FVG forms, the tool samples volume from a 10× lower timeframe , splits it into Buy and Sell components, and overlays two compact bars whose percentages always sum to 100%. Each gap also shows its total traded volume . A live dashboard (top-right) summarizes how many bullish and bearish FVGs are currently active and their cumulative volumes—offering a quick read on directional participation and trend pressure.
🔵 CONCEPTS
FVGs (Fair Value Gaps) : Imbalance zones between three consecutive candles where price “skips” trading. The script plots bullish and bearish gaps and extends them until mitigated.
Size Filtering : Only significant gaps (by relative size percentile) are drawn, reducing noise and emphasizing meaningful imbalances.
// Gap Filters
float diff = close > open ? (low - high ) / low * 100 : (low - high) / high *100
float sizeFVG = diff / ta.percentile_nearest_rank(diff, 1000, 100) * 100
bool filterFVG = sizeFVG > 15
Volume Decomposition : For each FVG, the indicator inspects a 10× lower timeframe and aggregates volume of bullish vs. bearish candles inside the gap’s span.
100% Split Bars : Two inline bars per FVG display the % Bull and % Bear shares; their total is always 100%.
Total Gap Volume : A numeric label at the right edge of the FVG shows the total traded volume associated with that gap.
Mitigation Logic : Gaps are removed when price closes through (or touches via high/low—user-selectable) the opposite boundary.
Dashboard Summary : Counts and sums the active bullish/bearish FVGs and their total volumes to gauge directional dominance.
🔵 FEATURES
Bullish & Bearish FVG plotting with independent color controls and visibility toggles.
Adaptive size filter (percentile-based) to keep only impactful gaps.
Lower-TF volume sampling at 10× faster resolution for more granular Buy/Sell breakdown.
Per-FVG volume bars : two horizontal bars showing Bull % and Bear % (sum = 100%).
Per-FVG total volume label displayed at the right end of the gap’s body.
Mitigation source option : choose close or high/low for removing/invalidating gaps.
Overlap control : older overlapped gaps are cleaned to avoid clutter.
Auto-extension : active gaps extend right until mitigated.
Dashboard : shows count of bullish/bearish gaps on chart and cumulative volume totals for each side.
Performance safeguards : caps the number of active FVG boxes to maintain responsiveness.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Turn on/off FVG types : Enable Bullish FVG and/or Bearish FVG depending on your focus.
Tune the filter : The script already filters by relative size; if you need fewer (stronger) signals, increase the percentile threshold in code or reduce the number of displayed boxes.
Choose mitigation source :
close — stricter; gap is removed when a closing price crosses the boundary.
high/low — more sensitive; a wick through the boundary mitigates the gap.
Read the per-FVG bars :
A higher Bull % inside a bullish gap suggests constructive demand backing the imbalance.
A higher Bear % inside a bearish gap suggests supply is enforcing the imbalance.
Use total gap volume : Larger totals imply more meaningful interest at that imbalance; confluence with structure/HTF levels increases relevance.
Watch the dashboard : If bullish counts and cumulative volume exceed bearish, market pressure is likely skewed upward (and vice versa). Combine with trend tools or market structure for entries/exits.
Optional: hide volume bars : Disable Volume Bars when you want a cleaner FVG map while keeping total volume labels and the dashboard.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Volumatic Fair Value Gaps blends precise FVG detection with lower-timeframe volume analytics to show not only where imbalances exist but also who powers them. The per-gap Bull/Bear % bars, total volume labels, and the cumulative dashboard together provide a fast, high-signal read on directional participation. Use the tool to prioritize higher-quality gaps, align with trend bias, and time mitigations or continuations with greater confidence.

Volume Pressure Analysis - Live DataVolume Pressure Gauge and Volume Percentage Indicator – Pine Script Guide
This indicator provides a simplified, real-time visualization of both volume pressure (buy vs. sell activity) and today’s trading volume in comparison to historical averages. It is designed to help traders assess whether buyers or sellers dominate the current session and whether today’s volume is significant relative to recent behaviour.
________________________________________
Key Functional Segments
1. Inputs and Configuration
Users can configure the length of the Simple Moving Average (SMA) used to calculate average volume, set the position of the gauge table on the chart, and toggle the visibility of the volume pressure display. This allows flexibility in integrating the tool with various trading styles and chart layouts.
2. Volume Data Calculations
The indicator calculates three key volume metrics:
• volToday: The current day’s volume.
• volAvg: The average volume over the user-defined SMA period (default is 20 bars).
• volPct: The current volume as a percentage of the average.
This enables traders to quickly recognize whether current trading activity is above or below normal, which can be a precursor to potential trend strength or weakness.
3. Volume Pressure Calculation
The script estimates buying and selling pressure based on price movement and volume. It distributes volume into upward (buy) and downward (sell) segments and expresses them as percentages of the total volume. This gives an immediate sense of whether bulls or bears are more active in the current session.
4. Visual Representation (Progress Bars)
The indicator renders a simplified visual gauge using horizontal bar segments (pseudo-bars) to reflect the proportion of buy and sell pressure. The length of each bar correlates with the strength of pressure from buyers or sellers, helping users assess dominance without analyzing candlestick behavior in depth.
5. Table Display
A compact table is drawn on the chart showing:
• Buy pressure percentage and corresponding bar.
• Sell pressure percentage and corresponding bar.
• Volume percentage compared to the recent average.
This format makes it easy to evaluate volume dynamics at a glance, without cluttering the price chart or relying on separate overlays.
________________________________________
How Traders Benefit from This Indicator
• Momentum Shift Detection: Early signs of trend reversal can be observed when volume pressure flips direction.
• Breakout Validation: High volume combined with dominant pressure supports the credibility of breakout moves.
• False Move Avoidance: If price moves on low volume or mixed pressure, traders can avoid low-probability entries.
• Market Context Awareness: Users can assess whether a day is behaving normally in terms of participation or is unusually quiet or aggressive.
________________________________________
Basic Usage Guide
1. Add the script to your TradingView chart and set your preferred SMA length for volume comparison.
2. Customize the table’s position using the X and Y settings for clarity and alignment.
3. Interpret the outputs:
o A higher red bar indicates dominant sell pressure.
o A higher green bar indicates dominant buy pressure.
o Volume % above 100% suggests above-average activity, while values below 100% may imply low conviction.
4. Apply to trading decisions:
o High buy pressure and high volume may indicate a strong long opportunity.
o High sell pressure and high volume may support short setups.
o Low volume or conflicting signals may call for caution.
5. Combine with other tools such as trend indicators, support/resistance zones, or price action patterns for more reliable trade setups.
________________________________________
Practical Example
• Sell Pressure: 70% → Suggests strong seller control; potential for short setups.
• Buy Pressure: 30% → Weak buying interest; long trades may carry risk.
• Volume Percentage: 120% → Indicates a surge in participation; movement may have greater validity.
________________________________________
Tips for New Traders
• Use this indicator as a confirmation tool rather than a standalone strategy.
• Begin on higher timeframes (4-hour or daily) to develop familiarity.
• Compare multiple examples to identify reliable patterns over time.
• Always incorporate proper risk management, including stop losses.

Exchanges Combined Volume📊 Exchanges Combined Volume
(Aggregated Multi-Exchange Volume: Binance, OKX, Bybit, etc.) by BIGTAKER*
🔍 Purpose
The Exchanges Combined Volume indicator aggregates real-time trading volumes from multiple global exchanges for a specific asset (e.g., a cryptocurrency).
Instead of relying on a single market, it provides a broader view of market activity, helping users detect abnormal volume behavior and increased participation across the entire market.
⚙️ Supported Exchanges
* USDT Markets
`Binance`, `OKX`, `Bybit`, `Bitget`, `Gate.io`
* USD Markets
`Coinbase`, `Bitfinex`, `Bitstamp`
* Default
Includes the current chart symbol’s native volume by default.
🧮 Core Calculation Logic
1. 📛 Symbol Normalization (cleanSymbol)
Prefixes such as `1000`, `10000`, `100000`, or `1M` (common in leveraged tickers) are automatically removed to extract the base token.
> Example:
> `1000PEPEUSDT` → `PEPEUSDT`
2. 📈 Volume Requests from External Exchanges
Volume is retrieved using the `` format (e.g., `'BINANCE:PEPEUSDT'`, `'COINBASE:BTCUSD'`).
Invalid or delisted pairs are safely ignored using `ignore_invalid_symbol=true`.
3. 📊 Total Volume Calculation
totalVolume = usdtVolume + usdVolume + currentSymbolVolume
The indicator sums the volume from all target exchanges plus the volume from the current chart symbol.
4. 📏 Comparison to Average Volume
* Period: `length = 60` (Simple Moving Average over 60 candles)
* A candle is considered **high-intensity** if:
5. 🎨 Visual Styling
| Condition | Color | Meaning |
| -------------------------- | --------------------- | ----------------------- |
| High-volume Bullish Candle | Light Green (#30db78) | Strong Buying Activity |
| High-volume Bearish Candle | Bright Red (#ff0000) | Strong Selling Activity |
| Normal Bullish Candle | Dark Green (#3c7058) | Regular Buying Volume |
| Normal Bearish Candle | Dark Red (#682e2c) | Regular Selling Volume |
📌 Use Cases
* Detect synchronized volume surges across major global exchanges.
* Identify pre-pump accumulation phases on altcoins.
* Combine with premium gap indicators (e.g., Kimchi Premium) to identify leading market sentiment.
* Confirm breakout momentum with multi-exchange volume validation.
📘 Notes & Warnings
* Listing differences across exchanges may result in **zero volume** on some platforms.
* Prefixes like `1000`, `1M`, etc., are automatically removed to **improve symbol matching accuracy**.
* As volume units are not standardized, this indicator is best suited for **absolute value analysis**, not ratio-based comparisons.
VSA-Stopping VolumeVSA Stopping Volume Indicator
Stopping Volume occurs when candles show decreasing body sizes (narrow spreads) while volume steadily increases.
Example chart:
As you see:
3 consecutive candles in same direction (all green OR all red)
Body sizes (spreads) decreasing progressively: Candle 1 > Candle 2 > Candle 3
Volume increasing progressively: Volume 1 < Volume 2 < Volume 3
This pattern indicates price absorption - increased buying/selling pressure but declining price movement, often signaling exhaustion and potential reversal.
Indicator Features
This indicator detects Stopping Volume candlestick clusters with two signal types:
🔹 BUY/SELL Signals: Generated when pattern occurs at support/resistance zones
🔹 Directional Alerts (▲-green, ▼-red): Generated when pattern occurs outside key levels
Trading Guidelines:
⚠️ Auto-drawn S/R zones are reference only - manual level plotting recommended for accuracy
📊 Best for scalping: M5, M10, M15 timeframes
🛡️ Stop Loss: Place beyond the S/R zone you're trading
🎯 Take Profit: Based on your risk management
Key Concept: Volume expansion + price contraction = potential reversal, especially at SnR levels.
Perfect for scalpers looking to catch reversals at critical zones!

Volume-RSI Colored Bars
The Volume Indicator, used in conjunction with the embedded Relative Strength Index (RSI), is a powerful tool for making informed trading decisions. Let’s break down how this indicator works and how it can assist you in your trading strategy.
Volume Indicator:
The Volume Indicator tracks the volume of trades occurring in a specific timeframe. Volume shows the number of shares or contracts traded, which can reveal the strength of a price move. If price is moving higher with increasing volume, it generally confirms that the move has more strength, indicating the potential for continuation. Conversely, if the price is moving lower with increasing volume, it indicates strong bearish momentum.
Volume Clusters:
In the chart, we can see various volume clusters highlighted in green, red, and grey. The green bars represent high volume, which can signal strong buying pressure. The red bars represent low volume, signaling that selling pressure is low. Grey bars indicate average volume.
High Volume (Green Bars): High buying pressure, indicating that there may be a strong move in the direction of the price.
Low Volume (Red Bars): Potential signal for a weak move, indicating a lack of participation in the current trend.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
RSI is a momentum oscillator that indicates whether a market is overbought or oversold. The RSI ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 70 suggesting an overbought market and readings below 30 suggesting an oversold market.
The RSI is also embedded in the indicator to give a better context when combined with volume. It adds an extra layer of analysis to interpret the price action.
How to Use Volume Indicator with RSI:
Confirming Breakouts:
If you see a breakout in price (an upward movement or downward movement) and the volume indicator shows high volume, this confirms the strength of the breakout.
If the RSI also supports the breakout (for example, it is crossing above 50 or above 70 for an uptrend), it further validates the trade.
Identifying Reversals:
When the price is reaching overbought or oversold levels (RSI above 70 or below 30) and there is low volume (red bars), this may indicate a potential reversal.
If the price is oversold and RSI shows values below 30 with increasing volume (green bars), this could signal a potential buying opportunity as a reversal might occur.
Volume Divergence:
If the price is making new highs, but the volume is declining (red bars), it may signal weakness in the trend, despite the RSI indicating strength. This divergence can help traders anticipate a potential reversal or breakout.
Example from the Chart:
Strong Buy Signal: The price is making an upward movement, the volume bars are turning green (indicating strong buying pressure), and RSI is rising above 50.
Bearish Divergence: You may see RSI moving higher, but volume bars are turning red (indicating weak momentum). This could signal that the upward movement lacks strength, suggesting a potential reversal.
By combining these two indicators, the Volume Indicator and the RSI, traders can make more informed decisions on whether the current trend is sustainable, or if a reversal or breakout is likely.
In conclusion, using the Volume Indicator and RSI together allows for:
Identifying high-volume breakouts and reversals
Filtering out weak price movements
Confirming trends with volume and momentum
This combination enhances trading strategies by providing clear signals of market strength or weakness, helping traders optimize their entry and exit points effectively.

Range Breakout Signals [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script detects range-bound market conditions and breakout signals using a combination of volatility compression and volume imbalance analysis. It identifies zones where price consolidates within a defined range and highlights potential breakout points with visual markers. Traders can use this to spot market transitions from ranging to trending phases, aiding in decision-making for breakout strategies.
CONCEPTS
The script measures volatility by comparing the ratio of the simple moving average (SMA) of price movements to their median value. When volatility drops below a threshold, the script assumes a range-bound market. It then tracks the cumulative volume of buying and selling pressure to assess breakout strength. The approach is based on the idea that market consolidation often precedes strong moves, and volume distribution can provide clues on the breakout direction.
FEATURES
Range Detection : Uses a volatility filter to identify low-volatility zones and marks them on the chart with shaded boxes.
Volume Imbalance Analysis : Evaluates cumulative up and down volume over a confirmation period to assess directional bias.
Breakout Signals : When price exits a detected range, the script plots breakout markers. A ▲ symbol indicates a bullish breakout, and a ▼ symbol indicates a bearish breakout. Additional "+" markers indicate strong volume imbalance favoring the breakout direction.
Adaptive Timeframe Volume Analysis : The script dynamically adjusts its volume calculation based on the chart’s timeframe, ensuring reliable signal generation across different trading conditions.
Alerts : Notifies traders when a new range is detected or when a breakout occurs, allowing for automated monitoring.
USAGE
Traders can use this script to identify potential trade setups by entering positions when price breaks out of a detected range. For breakout confirmation, traders can look at volume imbalance cues—bullish breakouts with strong buying volume may indicate sustained moves, while weak volume breakouts may lead to false signals. This script is particularly useful for breakout traders, range traders seeking to fade breakouts, and those looking to automate trade alerts in volatile markets.
