Multi TF Volume ATR

This indicator measures volatility using ATR applied to volume across multiple timeframes. It helps identify when real momentum enters the market by showing volume spikes on 1h, 4h, 12h, and Daily charts. When several timeframes spike at the same time, it often signals strong moves, breakouts, or major shifts in volatility.
The script calculates Volume ATR for 1h, 4h, 12h, and 1D. Each timeframe generates its own spike condition. The indicator then checks for alignment between timeframes. The 1h histogram changes color based on the strength of the signal.
Red means multi timeframe alignment. This is the strongest signal and shows that several timeframes are spiking together.
Yellow means a 1h spike only. This is an early warning of local volatility.
Blue means no spike.
The indicator also plots higher timeframe ATR lines for context. These include 4h ATR, 12h ATR, and 1D ATR. When these lines rise together, volatility is building. Spike markers appear at the top of the pane when higher timeframes trigger.
You can choose how strict the alignment should be. Options include all three timeframes (1h, 4h, 12h), at least two timeframes, or including the daily timeframe for even stronger confirmation.
The script includes alert conditions for 1h spikes, multi timeframe alignment spikes, and daily spikes. These alerts help you stay ahead of volatility without watching charts constantly.
This indicator is useful for many trading styles. Breakout traders use red bars to confirm momentum. Mean reversion traders use daily spikes to confirm volatility conditions. Trend traders watch rising 4h and 12h ATR lines. Scalpers use yellow bars as early warnings.
Volume ATR shows how quickly volume is expanding. When several timeframes spike together, it often signals institutional activity, liquidity events, volatility shifts, breakouts, or reversals. This provides information that price alone cannot show.
