Volume Volatility and Delta Indicator (HN)This Volume Volatility Indicator with Overall Average from Hossein.N helps you visualize the volatility of volume on different timeframes and compares it to the average volume over a given period. It includes several components:
Volume Volatility Indicator (Blue Line): This shows the volatility of volume relative to its moving average over a specified period. Higher values indicate more volatile trading conditions.
Long-Term Volatility Average (Orange Line): This line shows the moving average of the volume volatility indicator over a longer period. It acts as a benchmark for comparing the current volume volatility with historical trends.
Average Volume on Up Days (Green Line): Displays the average volume on days when the price is going up (green).
Average Volume on Down Days (Red Line): Displays the average volume on days when the price is going down (red).
Delta in Percentage (Blue Line): This shows the difference between the average volume of up days and down days, expressed as a percentage of the overall moving average of volume. It can be used to identify bullish or bearish volume imbalances. For example:
Positive values indicate that the volume on up days is stronger than on down days, which could suggest a bullish trend.
Negative values suggest that volume on down days is stronger than on up days, potentially indicating a bearish trend.
Zero Line (Gray Dotted Line): A reference line at 0 that helps you identify when the delta is positive or negative, and visualize the neutral point where volume is balanced between up and down days.
How to Use This Indicator:
Add to Your Chart: Copy the script above and paste it into TradingView's Pine Script editor. Click "Add to Chart" to visualize the indicator.
Interpret the Indicator:
Volume Volatility: A higher value suggests high market volatility. When volume is highly volatile, it may indicate more significant price movements or market uncertainty.
Long-Term Average of Volatility: Use this line as a reference to see whether current volatility is above or below average over a longer period.
Delta in Percentage: This is particularly useful to compare the strength of buying and selling volume. A positive delta percentage suggests strong buying pressure, while a negative delta suggests strong selling pressure. The closer the delta is to zero, the more balanced the volume between up and down days.
Use for Trend Confirmation: The indicator can help confirm trends. If the delta percentage is positive and increasing, and the volume volatility is above average, it could signal strong bullish momentum. Conversely, if the delta is negative and the volume volatility is rising, it may suggest bearish sentiment.

Volumatic Variable Index Dynamic Average [BigBeluga]The Volumatic VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) indicator is a trend-following tool that calculates and visualizes both the current trend and the corresponding buy and sell pressure within each trend phase. Using the Variable Index Dynamic Average as the core smoothing technique, this indicator also plots volume levels of lows and highs based on market structure pivot points, providing traders with key insights into price and volume dynamics.
Additionally, it generates delta volume values to help traders evaluate buy-sell pressure balance during each trend, making it a powerful tool for understanding market sentiment shifts.

🔵 IDEA
The Volumatic VIDYA indicator's core idea is to provide a dynamic, adaptive smoothing tool that identifies trends while simultaneously calculating the volume pressure behind them. The VIDYA line, based on the Variable Index Dynamic Average, adjusts according to the strength of the price movements, offering a more adaptive response to the market compared to standard moving averages.
By calculating and displaying the buy and sell volume pressure throughout each trend, the indicator provides traders with key insights into market participation. The horizontal lines drawn from the highs and lows of market structure pivots give additional clarity on support and resistance levels, backed by average volume at these points. This dual analysis of trend and volume allows traders to evaluate the strength and potential of market movements more effectively.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
VIDYA Calculation:
The Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA) is a special type of moving average that adjusts dynamically to the market’s volatility and momentum. Unlike traditional moving averages that use fixed periods, VIDYA adjusts its smoothing factor based on the relative strength of the price movements, using the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) to capture the magnitude of price changes. When momentum is strong, VIDYA adapts and smooths out price movements quicker, making it more responsive to rapid price changes. This makes VIDYA more adaptable to volatile markets compared to traditional moving averages such as the Simple Moving Average (SMA) or the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which are less flexible.
// VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) function
vidya_calc(src, vidya_length, vidya_momentum) =>
float momentum = ta.change(src)
float sum_pos_momentum = math.sum((momentum >= 0) ? momentum : 0.0, vidya_momentum)
float sum_neg_momentum = math.sum((momentum >= 0) ? 0.0 : -momentum, vidya_momentum)
float abs_cmo = math.abs(100 * (sum_pos_momentum - sum_neg_momentum) / (sum_pos_momentum + sum_neg_momentum))
float alpha = 2 / (vidya_length + 1)
var float vidya_value = 0.0
vidya_value := alpha * abs_cmo / 100 * src + (1 - alpha * abs_cmo / 100) * nz(vidya_value )
ta.sma(vidya_value, 15)
When momentum is strong, VIDYA adapts and smooths out price movements quicker, making it more responsive to rapid price changes. This makes VIDYA more adaptable to volatile markets compared to traditional moving averages
Triangle Trend Shift Signals:
The indicator marks trend shifts with up and down triangles, signaling a potential change in direction. These signals appear when the price crosses above a VIDYA during an uptrend or crosses below during a downtrend.
Volume Pressure Calculation:
The Volumatic VIDYA tracks the buy and sell pressure during each trend, calculating the cumulative volume for up and down bars. Positive delta volume occurs during uptrends due to higher buy pressure, while negative delta volume reflects higher sell pressure during downtrends. The delta is displayed in real-time on the chart, offering a quick view of volume imbalances.
Market Structure Pivot Lines with Volume Labels:
The indicator draws horizontal lines based on market structure pivots, which are calculated using the highs and lows of price action. These lines are extended on the chart until price crosses them. The indicator also plots the average volume over a 6-bar range to provide a clearer understanding of volume dynamics at critical points.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
VIDYA Length & Momentum: Control the sensitivity of the VIDYA line by adjusting the length and momentum settings, allowing traders to customize the smoothing effect to match their trading style.
Volume Pivot Detection: Set the number of bars to consider for identifying pivots, which influences the calculation of the average volume at key levels.
Band Distance: Adjust the band distance multiplier for controlling how far the upper and lower bands extend from the VIDYA line, based on the ATR (Average True Range).

LIT - TimingIntroduction
This Script displays the Asia Session Range, the London Open Inducement Window, the NY Open Inducement Window, the Previous Week's high and low, the Previous Day's highs and lows, and the Day Open price in the cleanest way possible.
Description
The Indicator is based on UTC -7 timing but displays the Session Boxes automatically correct at your chart so you do not have to adjust any timings based on your Time Zone and don't have to do any calculations based on your UTC. It is already perfect.
You will see on default settings the purple Asia Box and 2 grey boxes, the first one is for the London Open Inducement Window (1 hour) and the second grey box is for the NY Open Inducement Window (also 1 hour)
Asia Range comes with default settings with the Asia Range high, low, and midline, you can remove these 3 lines in the settings "style" and untick the "Lines" box, that way you only will have the boxes displayed.
Special Feature
Most Timing-based Indicators have "bugged" boxes or don't show clean boxes at all and don't adjust at daylight savings times, we made sure that everything automatically gets adjusted so you don't have to! So the timings will always display at the correct time regarding the daylight savings times.
Combining Timing with Liquidity Zones the right way and in a clear, clean, and simple format.
Different than others this script also shows the "true" Asia range as it respects the "day open gap" which affects the Asia range in other scripts and it also covers the full 8 hours of Asia Session.
Additions
You can add in the settings menu the last week's high and low, the previous day's high and low, and also the day's open price by ticking the boxes in the settings menu
All colors of the boxes are fully adjustable and customizable for your personal preferences. Same for the previous weeks and day highs and lows. Just go to "Style" and you can adjust the Line types or colors to your preferred choice.
Recommended Use
The most beautiful display is on the M5 Timeframe as you have a clear overview of all sessions without losing the intraday view. You can also use it on the M1 for more details or the M15 for the bigger picture. The Template can hide on higher time frames starting from the H1 to not flood your chart with boxes.
How to use the Asia Session Range Box
Use the Asia Range Box as your intraday Guide, keep in mind that a Breakout of Asia high or low induces Liquidity and a common price behavior is a reversal after the fake breakout of that range.
How to use the London Open and NY Open Inducement Windows
Both grey boxes highlight the Open of either London Open or NY Open and you should keep an eye out for potential Liquditiy Graps or Mitigations during that times as this is when they introduce major Liquidity for the regarding Session.
How to use the Asia high, low and midline and day open price
After Asia Range got taken out in one direction, often price comes back to those levels to mitigate or bounce off, so you can imagine those zones as support and resistance on some occasions, recommended in combination with Imbalances.
How to use the previous day and week's highs and lows
Once added in the settings, you can display those price levels, you can use them either as Liquidity Targets or as Inducement Levels once they are taken out.
Enjoy!

Inner Circle Trader Institutional ORDER BLOCKS FOREX Theory
Today we are talking about the infamous ORDER BLOCKS by ICT forex trading Strategy. Order Blocks have proven to be a very effective tool in trading as they allow traders to gain high reward with low risk trades.
What is an Order Block? - The Order Block is a specific price range or candle where institutions will be buying or selling against the retail trend/dump money.
Institutions leave order blocks for themselves to trade at a later stage. They will reverse the price to a previous order and then driving the price hard in the direction of the trend (The real institutional trend).
These order blocks we can also call them specific levels of either going Long or Short. If an order block is violated or broken, it now qualifies as a Breaker, meaning Price will retest back to that order block. Sometimes we call it a failed order block.
Types of OBs:
i. Bullish Order Block (BUB)
ii. Bearish Order Block (BEB)
Kim Lisa – A+ Rejection System (EMA48 + VWAP + TrendSlope)Overview
The A+ Rejection System is a price-action–based strategy designed to identify high-quality reversal or continuation setups at dynamic support and resistance levels.
It combines the EMA48, VWAP, and a TrendSlope filter to detect moments where price interacts with these levels and immediately rejects them with strong wick-based candles.
This strategy focuses on clean market structure, dynamic levels, and wick dominance — without relying on repainting logic or lagging confirmation indicators.
🔍 How the Strategy Works
1. Dynamic Levels
The strategy uses two key dynamic levels:
EMA48 – short-term dynamic support/resistance
VWAP – volume-weighted mean price, used as institutional value anchor
Price must touch either EMA48 or VWAP for a valid setup.
2. TrendSlope Requirement
The touched level must show an actual slope:
Positive or negative slope is allowed
Flat levels are filtered out (no trades when EMA48 or VWAP is horizontal)
This avoids trading low-quality setups during sideways markets.
3. Rejection Candle Requirements
A valid rejection candle must show:
A clear wick dominance against the level
Body closing away from the level
For buys: strong lower wick + bullish close
For sells: strong upper wick + bearish close
This identifies strong rejection behavior with orderflow imbalance.
4. Trend Filter
Instead of using a traditional EMA200 filter, the strategy uses:
Price above VWAP → only long setups
Price below VWAP → only short setups
This allows adaptive trend following in both high- and low-volatility environments.
5. Time Filters (Europe Sessions)
Trades are allowed only during:
07:15–13:00 (German morning session)
14:00–18:00 (German afternoon/NY overlap)
This avoids low-volume overnight trading.
6. Order Placement
For every valid signal:
Entry:
Long: buy stop above candle high
Short: sell stop below candle low
Stop-Loss:
Based on rejection candle high/low
Take-Profit:
Fixed Risk-to-Reward 1:2
No pyramiding is used.
📊 What This Strategy Aims to Capture
This strategy is designed to capture:
Rejections at dynamic institutional levels
Pullback entries in ongoing trends
Liquidity sweeps into EMA/VWAP followed by reversal
Momentum bursts after failed retests
It works particularly well on:
XAUUSD
Indices (NAS100, SP500, DAX)
Forex majors
Futures micro contracts
⚠️ Important Notes
This script does not repaint.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Optimizing RR, time windows, and wick-strength criteria may improve performance depending on the market.

Advanced Tips
Scalping Psychology
Be patient: Wait for Score 5+ setups
Be decisive: When signal appears, act immediately
Be disciplined: Follow your stop loss always
Be flexible: Exit quickly if dashboard reverses
Optimization
Backtest on your specific instrument
Adjust RSI/Stoch levels for your market
Fine-tune volume thresholds
Keep a trade journal to track which setups work best
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation
Use 5-min dashboard as "trend filter"
Take 1-min trades only in direction of 5-min SCALP signal
Increases win rate by ~10-15%
Troubleshooting
Q: Dashboard shows WAIT most of the time
Normal - scalping is about patience. Quality > Quantity
3-8 good setups per day is excellent
Q: Too many false signals
Increase minimum Score requirement to 5 or 6
Only trade with volume surge (yellow backgrounds)
Add large order detection confirmation
Q: Signals too slow
You may be on too high a timeframe
Try 1-minute chart for faster signals
Ensure real-time data feed is active
Q: Support/Resistance not updating
Normal - updates every 3 bars
If completely stuck, remove and re-add indicator
Summary
This scalping system works best when:
✅ Multiple indicators align (Score 5+)
✅ Volume and tape speed confirm the move
✅ Order flow (diamonds) confirms direction
✅ Price is at key levels (support/resistance)
✅ You manage risk strictly
✅ You exit before market close
The golden rule: When SCALP says WAIT, you WAIT. Discipline beats frequency.
iFVG CE Break with alertHere’s a clear, user-friendly rundown of what the indicator does and how to tune it.
What it does
- Detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) in both directions:
- UP FVG (bearish imbalance) and DOWN FVG (bullish imbalance).
- Draws the CE (Consequence/Equilibrium) line for each FVG (default yellow, dotted).
- Entry arrows (iFVG): plots an arrow when the candle body breaks & closes across a stored CE, both up and down.
- Keeps a history of past CEs (per side) and will still signal even if the original FVG has been mitigated/filled
Signals & logic
- Body break rules:
- Up arrow: open <= CE and close > CE.
- Down arrow: open >= CE and close < CE.
- Multiple triggers per CE: each CE can fire up to 3 times (configurable).
- One arrow per bar per direction: if several CEs are crossed the same bar, you still get a single up and/or down arrow on that bar (cleaner chart).
- History window: checks the last N CEs per side (default 1 for early entry, range 1–10)

FU Candle Detector (Smart Money Concept) En Anglais🧠 Overall concept: “FU Candle” in Smart Money logic
In the context of Smart Money Concepts (SMC) or ICT (Inner Circle Trader), an FU Candle (also known as a “Fakeout Candle” or “Manipulation Candle”) is a candle that:
Creates an imbalance or a break (often above a swing high or below a swing low),
Attracts liquidity by trapping retail traders (liquidity grab),
Then abruptly reverses direction, revealing the hand of “Smart Money” (large institutions).
It therefore often marks:
The point of manipulation before an impulsive movement (reversal),
An area of interest for entering in the institutional direction (after the liquidity grab).
---
⚙️ How the “FU Candle Detector” script works
The script identifies these candlesticks by observing several typical criteria:
1. Detection of the manipulative candle (FU Candle)
Search for a candlestick that breaks a previous swing (significant high or low),
But closes in the opposite direction, often below/above the broken zone,
Thus indicating a fakeout.
Examples:
Bullish FU Candle: breaks a previous low, but closes bullish.
Bearish FU Candle: breaks a previous high, but closes bearish.
---
2. Visualization on the chart
The script generally displays:
🔴 Red markers for bearish FUs (Fake Breakout upwards),
🟢 Green markers for bullish FUs (Fake Breakout downwards),
🟦 Rectangles of areas of interest (often around the FU Candle Open),
📏 Horizontal lines on areas of imbalance (OB/FVG if integrated).
---
3. Possible additions depending on the version
Depending on the version you have received, the script can also:
Detect Fair Value Gaps (FVG) around FU Candles,
Mark Order Blocks (OB) associated with manipulation,
Add alerts when new FU Candles are detected,
Calculate the distance between the manipulation point and the price return,
Filter according to candle size, volume, or market structure (MSB/CHoCH).
---
🎯 Practical use
FU Candles are often used:
As confirmation of an imminent reversal,
To identify institutional entry zones (hidden Order Block),
To anticipate the direction of the next impulse after the liquidity hunt.
Typical entry example:
> Wait for the formation of an FU Candle + price return within the candle body = entry in the opposite direction to the false breakout.
📈 Recommended combinations
This detector is often combined with:
Structure Break Indicator (CHoCH / BOS)
Liquidity Pool Zones
Fair Value Gap Finder
Order Block Detector
This gives you a complete Smart Money Concept system, capable of mapping:
1. Where liquidity has been taken,
2. Where the price is rebalancing,
3. Where Smart Money is repositioning its orders.
Average Daily Session Range PRO [Capitalize Labs]Average Daily Session Range PRO
The Average Daily Session Range PRO (ADSR PRO) is a professional-grade analytical tool designed to quantify and visualize the probabilistic range behavior of intraday sessions.
It calculates directional range statistics using historical session data to show how far price typically moves up or down from the session open.
This helps traders understand session volatility profiles, range asymmetry, and probabilistic extensions relative to prior performance.
Key Features
Asymmetric Range Modeling: Separately tracks average upside and downside excursions from each session open, revealing directional bias and volatility imbalance.
Probability Engine Modes: Choose between Rolling Window (fixed-length lookback) and Exponential Decay (weighted historical memory) to control how recent or historic data influences probabilities.
Session-Aware Statistics: Calculates values independently for each defined session, allowing region-specific insights (e.g., Tokyo, London, New York).
Dynamic Range Table: Displays key metrics such as average up/down ticks, expected range extensions, and percentage probabilities.
Adaptive Display: Works across timeframes and instruments, automatically aligning with user-defined session start and end times.
Visual Clarity: Includes clean range markers and labels optimized for both backtesting and live-chart analysis.
Intended Use
ADSR PRO is a statistical reference indicator.
It does not generate buy/sell signals or predictive forecasts.
Its purpose is to help users observe historical session behavior and volatility tendencies to support their own discretionary analysis.

Dynamic ~ CVDDynamic - CVD is a smart, time-adaptive version of the classic Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator, designed to help traders visualize market buying and selling pressure across all timeframes with minimal manual tweaking.
Overview
Cumulative Volume Delta tracks the difference between buying and selling volume during each bar. It reveals whether aggressive buyers or sellers dominate the market, offering deep insight into real-time market sentiment and underlying momentum.
This version of CVD automatically adjusts its EMA smoothing length based on your selected timeframe, ensuring optimal sensitivity and consistency across intraday, daily, weekly, and even monthly charts.
Features
Dynamic EMA Length — Automatically adapts smoothing parameters based on the chart timeframe:
1–59 min → 50
1–23 h → 21
Daily & Weekly → 100
Monthly → 10
CVD Visualization — Displays cumulative delta to show the ongoing buying/selling imbalance.
CVD‑EMA Curve — Offers a clear trend signal by comparing the CVD line with its EMA.
Adaptive Color Logic — EMA curve changes color dynamically:
Green when CVD > EMA (bullish pressure)
Gray when CVD < EMA (bearish pressure)
How to Use
Use Dynamic - CVD to gauge whether the market is accumulating (net buying) or distributing (net selling).
When CVD rises above its EMA, it often signals consistent buying pressure and potential bullish continuation.
When CVD stays below its EMA, it highlights sustained selling pressure and possible weakness.
The dynamic EMA makes it suitable for scalping, swing trading, and longer-term trend analysis—no need to manually adjust settings.
Best For
Traders looking to measure real buying/selling flow rather than price movement alone.
Market participants who want a plug‑and‑play CVD that stays accurate across all timeframes.
Anyone interested in volume‑based momentum confirmation tools.

Liquidations Aggregated (Lite)Liquidations Aggregated (Lite)
The Liquidations Aggregated (Lite) script provides a unified cross-exchange visualization of short and long liquidation volumes, allowing traders to identify high-impact market events and sentiment reversals driven by forced position closures. It aggregates normalized liquidation data from Binance, Bybit, and OKX into a single coherent output, offering a consolidated perspective of derivative market stress across major venues.
Core Concept
Liquidations are involuntary closures of leveraged positions when margin requirements are breached. They represent points of structural orderflow imbalance, often triggering localized volatility spikes and price pivots. This indicator isolates and aggregates those liquidation volumes by direction (short vs. long), allowing traders to map where leveraged traders are being forced out and whether current market movement is driven by short covering or long capitulation.
Underlying Methodology
Each connected exchange provides liquidation feeds via standardized symbols (e.g., BTCUSDT.P_LQBUY or BTCUSD.P_LQSELL).
The script differentiates between:
Short Liquidations → Buy Volume: Forced covering of shorts, representing upward pressure.
Long Liquidations → Sell Volume: Forced selling of longs, representing downward pressure.
Bybit’s inverse data is normalized to align directional logic with Binance and OKX. Data is drawn through the request.security() function per symbol and per exchange, with per-exchange scaling adjustments applied to compensate for differences in reported nominal sizes (USD vs. coin-margined). The script is meant to match the calculation methods of professional-grade data sources (e.g., Velodata, Coinalyze). The value is denominated in the base currency at all times.
Computation Logic
Liquidation volumes are fetched separately for USD- and USDT-margined pairs on each exchange.
Exchange-specific magnitude adjustments are applied to account for nominal denomination differences.
Normalized liquidation buy and sell volumes are summed into two global aggregates:
combinedBuyVolumeLiquidationsShort → aggregated buy volume from forced short positions closes (Short Liquidations)
combinedSellVolumeLiquidationsLong → aggregated sell pressure from forced long position closes (Long Liquidations)
Final series are plotted as mirrored column charts around a zero baseline for direct comparison.
How to Use
Apply the script to any crypto perpetual futures symbol (e.g., BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT).
Observe teal bars (Buy Volume from Short Liquidations) for short squeezes and red bars (Sell Volume from Long Liquidations) for long wipes.
Strong teal spikes during downtrends often indicate aggressive short liquidations leading to short-term bounces.
Strong red spikes during uptrends often mark long unwinds that can trigger sharp retracements.
Sustained asymmetry in either direction suggests systemic imbalance across leveraged positioning.
Illuminati Zone🟣 Illuminati Zone — Hidden Power of the 11 PM NZ Candle
The Illuminati Zone reveals the hidden footprints of liquidity and market imbalance formed by the 11 PM New Zealand 15-minute candle — a time when global liquidity transitions between major sessions.
This candle often defines key intraday supply and demand boundaries, serving as a magnet for price and a pivot point for high-probability reversals or breakouts.
🧠 How it works
Automatically detects and marks the 11 PM NZ 15-minute candle each day.
Draws a translucent zone box between its high and low.
Extends two reference lines at +1 × range and –1 × range above and below the zone — ideal for spotting overextensions or liquidity sweeps.
Supports custom lookback, colors, and visual options.
💡 How to use it
Watch how price interacts with the zone — rejection often signals smart-money activity.
Use +1 and –1 levels as overextended zones for potential reversals or breakout retests.
Combine with your own confluence tools or volume analysis for precision entries.

🔮 Pro Tip: Pair it with a volume or imbalance indicator for surgical-level precision in identifying where smart money positions are built or released.
Volume Delta [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Volume Delta indicator visualizes the dominance between buying and selling volume within a given period. It calculates the percentage of bullish (buy) versus bearish (sell) volume, then color-codes the candles and provides a real-time dashboard comparing delta values across multiple currency pairs. This makes it a powerful tool for monitoring order-flow strength and intermarket relationships in real time.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Each bar’s buy volume is counted when the close is higher than the open.
Each bar’s sell volume is counted when the close is lower than the open.
volumeBuy = 0.
volumeSell = 0.
for i = 0 to period
if close > open
volumeBuy += volume
else
volumeSell += volume
The indicator sums both over a chosen period to calculate the ratio of buy-to-sell pressure.
Delta (%) = (Buy Volume ÷ (Buy Volume + Sell Volume)) × 100.
Gradient colors highlight whether buying or selling pressure dominates.
🔵 FEATURES
Calculates real-time Volume Delta for the selected chart or for multiple assets.
Colors candles dynamically based on the delta intensity (green = buy pressure, red = sell pressure).
Displays a dashboard table showing volume delta % for up to five instruments.
The dashboard features visual progress bars for quick intermarket comparison.
An optional Delta Bar Panel shows the ratio of Buy/Sell volumes near the latest bar.
A floating label shows the exact Buy/Sell percentages.
Works across all symbols and timeframes for multi-asset delta tracking.
🔵 HOW TO USE
When Buy % > Sell % , it often signals bullish momentum or strong accumulation—but can also indicate over-excitement and a possible market top.
Market Tops
When Sell % > Buy % , it typically reflects bearish pressure or distribution—but may also occur near a market bottom where selling exhaustion forms.
Market Bottom
Use the Dashboard to compare volume flow across correlated assets (e.g., major Forex pairs or sector groups).
Combine readings with trend or volatility filters to confirm whether the imbalance aligns with broader directional conviction.
Treat the Delta Bar visualization as a real-time sentiment gauge—showing which side (buyers or sellers) dominates the current session.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Volume Delta transforms volume analysis into an intuitive directional signal.
By quantifying buy/sell pressure and displaying it as a percentage or color gradient, it provides traders with a clearer picture of real-time volume imbalance — whether within one market or across multiple correlated instruments.
Devil Marks - Multi TimeframeA handy completely new script that shows Devil Marks for several time frames on the current time frame.
Devil Marks are where candles have no wick at one end of the candlestick. These levels are seen as areas that price needs to go back to at some point to re-balance the imbalance. These levels can add confluence to a trade idea.
A table is included that shows the closest devil mark for each time frame.
Devil Marks should show until that level is mitigated by price trading at that level.
Cumulative Volume Delta Profile and Heatmap [BackQuant]Cumulative Volume Delta Profile and Heatmap
A multi-view CVD workstation that measures buying vs selling pressure, renders a price-aligned CVD profile with Point of Control, paints an optional heatmap of delta intensity, and detects classical CVD divergences using pivot logic. Built for reading who is in control, where participation clustered, and when effort is failing to produce result.
What is CVD
Cumulative Volume Delta accumulates the difference between aggressive buys and aggressive sells over time. When CVD rises, buyers are lifting the offer more than sellers are hitting the bid. When CVD falls, the opposite is true. Plotting CVD alongside price helps you judge whether price moves are supported by real participation or are running on fumes.
Core Features
Visual Analysis Components
CVD Columns - Plot of cumulative delta, colored by side, for quick read of participation bias.
CVD Profile - Price-aligned histogram of CVD accumulation using user-set bins. Shows where net initiative clustered.
Split Buy and Sell CVD - Optional two-sided profile that separates positive and negative CVD into distinct wings.
POC - Point of Control - The price level with the highest absolute CVD accumulation, labeled and line-marked.
Heatmap - Semi-transparent blocks behind price that encode CVD intensity across the last N bars.
Divergence Engine - Pivot-based detection of Bearish and Bullish CVD divergences with optional lines and labels.
Stats Panel - Top level metrics: Total CVD, Buy and Sell totals with percentages, Delta Ratio, and current POC price.
How it works
Delta source and sampling
You select an Anchor Timeframe that defines the higher time aggregation for reading the trend of CVD.
The script pulls lower timeframe volume delta and aggregates it to the anchor window. You can let it auto-select the lower timeframe or force a custom one.
CVD is then accumulated bar by bar to form a running total. This plot shows the direction and persistence of initiative.
Profile construction
The recent price range is split into Profile Granularity bins.
As price traverses a bin, the current delta contribution is added to that bin.
If Split Buy and Sell CVD is enabled, positive CVD goes to the right wing and negative CVD to the left wing.
Widths are scaled by each side’s maximum so you can compare distribution shape at a glance.
The Point of Control is the bin with the highest absolute CVD. This marks where initiative concentrated the most.
Heatmap
For each bin, the script computes intensity as absolute CVD relative to the maximum bin value.
Color is derived from the side in control in that bin and shaded by intensity.
Heatmap Length sets how far back the panels extend, highlighting recurring participation zones.
Divergence model
You define pivot sensitivity with Pivot Left and Right .
Bearish divergence triggers when price confirms a higher high while CVD fails to make a higher high within a configurable Delta Tolerance .
Bullish divergence triggers when price confirms a lower low while CVD fails to make a lower low.
On trigger, optional link lines and labels are drawn at the pivots for immediate context.
Key Settings
Delta Source
Anchor Timeframe - Higher TF for the CVD narrative.
Custom Lower TF and Lower Timeframe - Force the sampling TF if desired.
Pivot Logic
Pivot Left and Right - Bars to each side for swing confirmation.
Delta Tolerance - Small allowance to avoid near-miss false positives.
CVD Profile
Show CVD Profile - Toggle profile rendering.
Split Buy and Sell CVD - Two-sided profile for clearer side attribution.
Show Heatmap - Project intensity panels behind price.
Show POC and POC Color - Mark the dominant CVD node.
Profile Granularity - Number of bins across the visible price range.
Profile Offset and Profile Width - Position and scale the profile.
Profile Position - Right, Left, or Current bar alignment.
Visuals
Bullish Div Color and Bearish Div Color - Colors for divergence artifacts.
Show Divergence Lines and Labels - Visualize pivots and annotations.
Plot CVD - Column plot of total CVD.
Show Statistics and Position - Toggle and place the summary table.
Reading the display
CVD columns
Rising CVD confirms buyers are in control. Falling CVD confirms sellers.
Flat or choppy CVD during wide price moves hints at passive or exhausted participation.
CVD profile wings
Thick right wing near a price zone implies heavy buy initiative accumulated there.
Thick left wing implies heavy sell initiative.
POC marks the strongest initiative node. Expect reactions on first touch and rotations around this level when the tape is balanced.
Heatmap
Brighter blocks indicate stronger historical net initiative at that price.
Stacked bright bands form CVD high volume nodes. These often behave like magnets or shelves for future trade.
Divergences
Bearish - Price prints a higher high while CVD fails to do so. Effort is not producing result. Potential fade or pause.
Bullish - Price prints a lower low while CVD fails to do so. Capitulation lacks initiative. Potential bounce or reversal.
Stats panel
Total CVD - Net initiative over the window.
Buy and Sell volume with percentages - Side composition.
Delta Ratio - Buy over Sell. Values above 1 favor buyers, below 1 favor sellers.
POC Price - Current control node for plan and risk.
Workflows
Trend following
Choose an Anchor Timeframe that matches your holding period.
Trade in the direction of CVD slope while price holds above a bullish POC or below a bearish POC.
Use pullbacks to CVD nodes on your profile as entry locations.
Trend weakens when price makes new highs but CVD stalls, or new lows while CVD recovers.
Mean reversion
Look for divergences at or near prior CVD nodes, especially the POC.
Fade tests into thick wings when the side that dominated there now fails to push CVD further.
Target rotations back toward the POC or the opposite wing edge.
Liquidity and execution map
Treat strong wings and heatmap bands as probable passive interest zones.
Expect pauses, partial fills, or flips at these shelves.
Stops make sense beyond the far edge of the active wing supporting your idea.
Alerts included
CVD Bearish Divergence and CVD Bullish Divergence.
Price Cross Above POC and Price Cross Below POC.
Extreme Buy Imbalance and Extreme Sell Imbalance from Delta Ratio.
CVD Turn Bullish and CVD Turn Bearish when net CVD crosses zero.
Price Near POC proximity alert.
Best practices
Use a higher Anchor Timeframe to stabilize the CVD story and a sensible Profile Granularity so wings are readable without clutter.
Keep Split mode on when you want to separate initiative attribution. Turn it off when you prefer a single net profile.
Tune Pivot Left and Right by instrument to avoid overfitting. Larger values find swing divergences. Smaller values find micro fades.
If volume is thin or synthetic for the symbol, CVD will be less reliable. The script will warn if volume is zero.
Trading applications
Context - Confirm or question breakouts with CVD slope.
Location - Build entries at CVD nodes and POC.
Timing - Use divergence and POC crosses for triggers.
Risk - Place stops beyond the opposite wing or outside the POC shelf.
Important notes and limits
This is a price and volume based study. It does not access off-book or venue-level order flow.
CVD profiles are built from the data available on your chart and the chosen lower timeframe sampling.
Like all volume tools, readings can distort during roll periods, holidays, or feed anomalies. Validate on your instrument.
Technical notes
Delta is aggregated from a lower timeframe into an Anchor Timeframe narrative.
Profile bins update in real time. Splitting by side scales each wing independently so both are readable in the same panel.
Divergences are confirmed using standard pivot definitions with user-set tolerances.
All profile drawing uses fixed X offsets so panels and POC do not swim when you scroll.
Quick start
Anchor Timeframe = Daily for intraday context.
Split Buy and Sell CVD = On.
Profile Granularity = 100 to 200, Profile Position = Right, Width to taste.
Pivot Left and Right around 8 to 12 to start, then adapt.
Turn on Heatmap for a fast map of interest bands.
Bottom line
CVD tells you who is doing the lifting. The profile shows where they did it. Divergences tell you when effort stops paying. Put them together and you get a clear read on control, location, and timing for both trend and mean reversion.
