Trendslinger CVD

CVD - Cumulative Volume Delta
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) tracks the running total of buying versus selling pressure by analyzing volume distribution within each price bar. This indicator visualizes order flow dynamics to help identify accumulation, distribution, and potential trend reversals.
How It Works
CVD calculates the "delta" (difference between buying and selling volume) for each bar and accumulates it over time. Two calculation methods are available:

Close Position: Estimates buy/sell volume based on where price closes within the bar's range. A close near the high suggests more buying pressure; a close near the low suggests more selling pressure.
Polarity: Simple method where green candles count as buy volume and red candles count as sell volume.

Key Features

Multiple Display Types: View CVD as candlesticks, line, histogram, area, or columns
Flexible Reset Options: Reset CVD hourly, daily, or weekly for cleaner intraday analysis
Divergence Detection: Automatically identifies bullish and bearish divergences between price and CVD
Session Tracking: Optional high/low reference lines for the current session
Smoothing Options: Apply SMA, EMA, WMA, or RMA smoothing to reduce noise
Info Table: Real-time display of current CVD value, bar delta, and session extremes
Built-in Alerts: Zero line crosses, divergences, and new session highs/lows

How To Use

Trend Confirmation: Rising CVD confirms bullish price action; falling CVD confirms bearish moves
Divergences: Price making new highs while CVD makes lower highs signals weakening buying pressure (bearish). Price making new lows while CVD makes higher lows signals weakening selling pressure (bullish)
Zero Line: CVD crossing above zero suggests buyers taking control; crossing below suggests sellers dominating
Hourly Resets: Useful for scalping and intraday trading to track momentum within each hour
