Enhanced volume

Hi all!

This indicator plots volume at the bottom of the chart and the volume Moving Average (with the choice of Simple Moving Average (SMA) (default), Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA)) and desired length (defaults to 20). It then changes the transparency of the volume (and the bars body) based on the close and the volume. It also changes the bar transparency. All these visual changes can be configured in the "Style" tab in the indicators settings.

The opacity will be high when the close is considered to be a "Strong close (%)" and has a bigger volume than any of the red closing in the last 10 bars. This "Strong close (%)" is defaulted to 50 which means that the bar needs to close equal or higher than 50% of the bar.

You also have an option to include red bars, which are excluded by default.

This indicator can help you to spot bars with relevant volume and find reversals.

I hope this explanation makes sense, let me know otherwise. Also let me know if you have any suggestions on improvements.

Best of trading luck!
