Buyer/Seller Dominance
Buyer/Seller Dominance Indicator
The Buyer/Seller Dominance indicator is a sophisticated market analysis tool that combines Market Profile methodology with volume analysis to identify which side of the market is in control. It analyzes price distribution across a higher timeframe by calculating the Point of Control (POC) and Value Area, then evaluates where the current price sits relative to these key levels. The indicator processes Time Price Opportunity (TPO) data across 20 price channels to build a comprehensive volume profile of each trading session.
The dominance score is calculated using multiple factors including price position relative to POC, Value Area boundaries, volume imbalance between upper and lower profile sections, price momentum, and volume trends. This multi-factor approach provides a robust measure of market sentiment, smoothed using an EMA to filter out noise. The resulting dominance histogram visually represents whether buyers (positive values) or sellers (negative values) are controlling the market.
The indicator generates clear buy and sell signals when dominance crosses key threshold levels, with additional visual aids including background coloring to show market state (buyer/seller/neutral), overbought/oversold levels at ±50, and an information table displaying current market conditions. It's fully customizable with adjustable timeframes, sensitivity settings, Value Area percentages, and color schemes to suit different trading styles and preferences.RetryClaude can make mistakes.
