Abnormal Delta Volume HistogramThis indicator can help traders spot potential turning points or heightened volatility and provides a dynamic measure of unusual market behavior by focusing on shifts in “delta volume.” Delta volume is approximated by assigning all of a bar’s volume to the bullish side if the close is higher than the open and to the bearish side if the close is lower. The result is a net volume measure that can hint at which side—buyers or sellers—has the upper hand. By comparing this delta volume to its historical averages and measuring how far current readings deviate in terms of standard deviations, the indicator can highlight bars that reflect significantly stronger than normal buying or selling pressure.
A histogram visualizes these delta volume values on a bar-by-bar basis, while additional reference lines for the mean and threshold boundaries allow traders to quickly identify abnormal conditions. When the histogram bars extend beyond the threshold lines, and are colored differently to signal abnormality, it can draw the trader’s eye to periods when market participation or sentiment may be shifting rapidly. This can be used as an early warning signal, prompting further investigation into price action, external news, or significant events that may be driving unusual volume patterns.

Discovery IndexThe Discovery Index is an original technical indicator which attempts to display directional market pressure and momentum based on accumulated candle-over-candle measurements.
Discovery , in this context, is the act of finding (discovering) New Highs and Lows.
> What is 'Discovery'
Not to be confused with "Price Discovery", the term for setting the spot price of an asset.
The term 'Discovery' in Discovery Index is used based on the literal definition of 'Discovery', such as, the action of finding what was previously unknown.
Given this definition,
Discovery is the difference between highs or lows only when the current high is higher than the previous high or the current low is lower than the previous low.
Below is a visual example of exactly where Discovery is seen from each candle.
Since discovery is only based on points of the candle, and not specifically the direction of the candle; it is possible for discovery to occur in both directions from the same candle.
It is also possible for no discovery to occur from a candle.
> Calculation
The Discovery Index is the Net Total of discovery data over a specified length of bars.
Discovery Index = Sum of Upwards Discovery + Sum of Downwards Discovery
Note: Upwards Discovery is always Positive, and Downwards Discovery is always Negative. By adding both together, their Net Total is produced. This value is the "Discovery Index".
Wick Calculation Example
> Volume Discovery
Using Volume for the Discovery Index Calculation allows for a different dimension to be added to the data for new analysis opportunities.
While volume data is only a single value, by accumulating this data over time, we are able to fabricate a candle body from the data by accounting for the direction of the chart candles.
This allows for the Calculation of the Discovery Index based on volume data.
Volume Example
> Display
The display uses a "Candlestick histogram" display. The bodies and wicks from the display represent the discovery data from the respective points in each candle. (Wick Discovery & Candle Body Discovery).
This style of histogram allows for the display of both data sources, preserving the accuracy and distinction between each type, while also providing a clean display.
> Considerations
Discovery index is not an Oscillator, since there are no upper or lower boundaries to its rotations.
There are not (at this time) any "Over-bought" or "Over-sold" Areas, this is partially due to the previous consideration since any levels for these could potentially change from chart to chart. Additionally, it would generally be better to read the data based on the context of the current market.
Non-directional movements effect the Discovery Index as well. Since Discovery does not occur from every bar, the Index reflects hesitations as well as movements in market direction.
With the option to input a symbol, the Discovery Index Indicator is not constrained to one chart ticker for its calculation and could help to see shifts between different symbols, making it easier to compare different assets.
With the separation of wicks and candle body data, a stronger move may be observed by its full-bodied movements, while a potentially more speculative move may be seen from large wick movements. Since wicks are often interpreted as either, Rejection for reversal OR as Testing for continuation, the interpretation for Wick Discovery generally varies based on context.
Discovery Index ⇾ Divergences! Due to its calculation, price (and/or volume) data is displayed in such a way that makes it useful as a tool for identifying divergence opportunities.
Remember, this indicator is lookback based. An immediate significant change from the data source (if not offset by a similar opposite change) will be represented for multiple bars after its occurrence. Due to this, data is likely to be skewed or biased from these occurrences for a period of time after.
Throughout development, "Discovery" has been shortened to just "Disco", therefore, this indicator is also an attempt to bring Disco Back.

Momentum Ghost Machine [ChartPrime]Momentum Ghost Machine (ChartPrime) is designed to be the next generation in momentum/rate of change analysis. This indicator utilizes the properties of one of our favorite filters to create a more accurate and stable momentum oscillator by using a high quality filtered delayed signal to do the momentum comparison.
Traditional momentum/roc uses the raw price data to compare current price to previous price to generate a directional oscillator. This leaves the oscillator prone to false readings and noisy outputs that leave traders unsure of the real likelihood of a future movement. One way to mitigate this issue would be to use some sort of moving average. Unfortunately, this can only go so far because simple moving average algorithms result in a poor reconstruction of the actual shape of the underlying signal.
The windowed sinc low pass filter is a linear phase filter, meaning that it doesn't change the shape or size of the original signal when applied. This results in a faithful reconstruction of the original signal, but without the "high frequency noise". Just like any filter, the process of applying it requires that we have "future" samples resulting in a time delay for real time applications. Fortunately this is a great thing in the context of a momentum oscillator because we need some representation of past price data to compare the current price data to. By using an ideal low pass filter to generate this delayed signal we can super charge the momentum oscillator and fix the majority of issues its predecessors had.
This indicator has a few extra features that other momentum/roc indicators dont have. One major yet simple improvement is the inclusion of a moving average to help gauge the rate of change of this indicator. Since we included a moving average, we thought it would only be appropriate to add a histogram to help visualize the relationship between the signal and its average. To go further with this we have also included linear extrapolation to further help you predict the momentum and direction of this oscillator. Included with this extrapolation we have also added the histogram in the extrapolation to further enhance its visual interpretation. Finally, the inclusion of a candle coloring feature really drives how the utility of the Momentum Machine .
There are three distinct options when using the candle coloring feature: Direct, MA, and Both. With direct the candles will be colored based on the indicators direction and polarity. When it is above zero and moving up, it displays a green color. When it is above zero and moving down it will display a light green color. Conversely, when the indicator is below zero and moving down it displays a red color, and when it it moving up and below zero it will display a light red color. MA coloring will color the candles just like a MACD. If the signal is above its MA and moving up it will display a green color, and when it is above its MA and moving down it will display a light green color.
When the signal is below its MA and moving down it will display a red color, and when its below its ma and moving up it will display a light red color. Both combines the two into a single color scheme providing you with the best of both worlds. If the indicator is above zero it will display the MA colors with a slight twist. When the indicator is moving down and is below its MA it will display a lighter color than before, and when it is below zero and is above its MA it will display a darker color color.
Length of 50 with a smoothing of 100
Length of 50 with a smoothing of 25
By default, the indicator is set to a momentum length of 50, with a post smoothing of 2. We have chosen the longer period for the momentum length to highlight the performance of this indicator compared to its ancestors. A major point to consider with this indicator is that you can only achieve so much smoothing for a chosen delay. This is because more data is required to produce a smoother signal at a specified length. Once you have selected your desired momentum length you can then select your desired momentum smoothing . This is made possible by the use of the windowed sinc low pass algorithm because it includes a frequency cutoff argument. This means that you can have as little or as much smoothing as you please without impacting the period of the indicator. In the provided examples above this paragraph is a visual representation of what is going on under the hood of this indicator. The blue line is the filtered signal being compared to the current closing price. As you can see, the filtered signal is very smooth and accurately represents the underlying price action without noise.
We hope that users can find the same utility as we did in this indicator and that it levels up your analysis utilizing the momentum oscillator or rate of change.

Phase Accumulation, Smoothed Williams %R Histogram [Loxx]Phase Accumulation, Smoothed Williams %R Histogram is a Williams %R indicator using dynamic inputs from Ehlers Phase Accumulation Dominant Cycle Period Algorithm. This indicator includes alerts and signals and is in a smoothed histogram form. The version of Phase Accumulation in this indicator is a modified form of of Ehlers algorithm to allow for better smoothing and cycle length selection.
What is Williams %R?
Williams %R , also known as the Williams Percent Range, is a type of momentum indicator that moves between 0 and -100 and measures overbought and oversold levels. The Williams %R may be used to find entry and exit points in the market. The indicator is very similar to the Stochastic oscillator and is used in the same way. It was developed by Larry Williams and it compares a stock’s closing price to the high-low range over a specific period, typically 14 days or periods.
What is Phase Accumulation?
The phase accumulation method of computing the dominant cycle is perhaps the easiest to comprehend. In this technique, we measure the phase at each sample by taking the arctangent of the ratio of the quadrature component to the in-phase component. A delta phase is generated by taking the difference of the phase between successive samples. At each sample we can then look backwards, adding up the delta phases.When the sum of the delta phases reaches 360 degrees, we must have passed through one full cycle, on average.The process is repeated for each new sample.
The phase accumulation method of cycle measurement always uses one full cycle’s worth of historical data.This is both an advantage and a disadvantage.The advantage is the lag in obtaining the answer scales directly with the cycle period.That is, the measurement of a short cycle period has less lag than the measurement of a longer cycle period. However, the number of samples used in making the measurement means the averaging period is variable with cycle period. longer averaging reduces the noise level compared to the signal.Therefore, shorter cycle periods necessarily have a higher out- put signal-to-noise ratio.

RSI/RSX QQE Histogram w/ Discontinued Signal Line [Loxx]QQE Histogram w/ Discontinued Signal Line is a run-of-the-mill Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) calculation but with a signal line to better filter and identify trends. The thicker white line is the QSL and appears as a simple EMA. The two thin white lines are the fast and slow trends. The histogram changes color based on the DSL levels. This version of QQE also includes two different versions of RSI: Wilders and Jurik's RSX.
What is Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE)?
The Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) indicator works like a smoother version of the popular Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) indicator. QQE expands on RSI by adding two volatility based trailing stop lines. These trailing stop lines are composed of a fast and a slow moving Average True Range (ATR).
What is Wilders' RSI?
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a well versed momentum based oscillator which is used to measure the speed (velocity) as well as the change (magnitude) of directional price movements. Essentially RSI , when graphed, provides a visual mean to monitor both the current, as well as historical, strength and weakness of a particular market. The strength or weakness is based on closing prices over the duration of a specified trading period creating a reliable metric of price and momentum changes. Given the popularity of cash settled instruments (stock indexes) and leveraged financial products (the entire field of derivatives); RSI has proven to be a viable indicator of price movements.
What is RSX?
RSI is a very popular technical indicator, because it takes into consideration market speed, direction and trend uniformity. However, the its widely criticized drawback is its noisy (jittery) appearance. The Jurk RSX retains all the useful features of RSI , but with one important exception: the noise is gone with no added lag.
There are many indicators for many purposes. Some of them are complex and some are comparatively easy to handle. The QQE indicator is a really useful analytical tool and one of the most accurate indicators. It offers numerous strategies for using the buy and sell signals. Essentially, it can help detect trend reversal and enter the trade at the most optimal positions.

Volume Profile and Volume Indicator by DGTVolume Profile (also known as Price by Volume) is an charting study that displays trading activity over a specified time period at specific price levels. It is plotted as a horizontal histogram on the finacial isntrumnet's chart that highlights the trader's interest at specific price levels.
The histogram is used by traders to predict areas of support and resistance. Price levels where the traded volume is high could be assumed as support and resistance levels.
Price may experience difficulty moving above or below areas with large bars. Usually there is a great deal of activity on both the buy and sell side and the market stays at that price level for a great deal of time
It is advised to use volume profile in conjunction with other forms of technical analysis to maximize the odds of success
Light version of Volume Profile is added to Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGT
Average change histogramThis histogram shows the average change in price between the past x candles close. If the average change is increasing the color of the histogram becomes dark green (if above 0) or dark red (if below 0).

Stochastic Momentum+HistogramI modified SMI from UCSGear by adding histogram into his code. I personally use it as a slow SMI, 5,10 to find divergences and gauge the trend's stregth. This indicator is pretty useful for finding entry and exit when the price hit support or resistance in low timeframe.
I find histogram divergence to be useful as you can really see into more detail when the trend strength is waning.
I hope you like it :)
Bollinger HistogramIn the same way that I make the donchian histogram , we can make a histogram for bollinger

Absolute Strength Histogram v2 | jhv2 changes the way the histogram is plotted.
Histogram shows the strength and can be used to identify trending or ranging periods.
ccid (with high low histogram)So this indicator has the following : CCI where the buy and sell signal can be either cross of the fast the slow and vice versa or cross of CCI bellow -50 and cross down CCI +50
the histogram (blue and red) is made by high low like histogram the buy and sell is based on crossing of the 0 . since its MTF type . you can toon the TF either to the time frame or use lower graph time with higher TF
since both indicator complement each other then I put them together
Trading Range Aggression Histogram
This indicator is a histogram that accumulates the net volume of aggressive buying and selling per candle, representing the dominant market pressure within defined time-frame.
The indicator works by continuously summing volumes as long as the aggression remains in the same direction, resetting and reversing the accumulation when the pressure changes sides.
This creates visual waves that facilitate the perception of phases dominated by buyers and sellers over time. The tool is useful to identify moments of strength, weakness, and potential reversals in a dynamic market, especially in short-term trading.
Volume Surprise [LuxAlgo]The Volume Surprise tool displays the trading volume alongside the expected volume at that time, allowing users to spot unexpected trading activity on the chart easily.
The tool includes an extrapolation of the estimated volume for future periods, allowing forecasting future trading activity.
🔶 USAGE
We define Volume Surprise as a situation where the actual trading volume deviates significantly from its expected value at a given time.
Being able to determine if trading activity is higher or lower than expected allows us to precisely gauge the interest of market participants in specific trends.
A histogram constructed from the difference between the volume and expected volume is provided to easily highlight the difference between the two and may be used as a standalone.
The tool can also help quantify the impact of specific market events, such as news about an instrument. For example, an important announcement leading to volume below expectations might be a sign of market participants underestimating the impact of the announcement.
Like in the example above, it is possible to observe cases where the volume significantly differs from the expected one, which might be interpreted as an anomaly leading to a correction.
🔹 Detecting Rare Trading Activity
Expected volume is defined as the mean (or median if we want to limit the impact of outliers) of the volume grouped at a specific point in time. This value depends on grouping volume based on periods, which can be user-defined.
However, it is possible to adjust the indicator to overestimate/underestimate expected volume, allowing for highlighting excessively high or low volume at specific times.
In order to do this, select "Percentiles" as the summary method, and change the percentiles value to a value that is close to 100 (overestimate expected volume) or to 0 (underestimate expected volume).
In the example above, we are only interested in detecting volume that is excessively high, we use the 95th percentile to do so, effectively highlighting when volume is higher than 95% of the volumes recorded at that time.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Choosing the Right Periods
Our expected volume value depends on grouping volume based on periods, which can be user-defined.
For example, if only the hourly period is selected, volumes are grouped by their respective hours. As such, to get the expected volume for the hour 7 PM, we collect and group the historical volumes that occurred at 7 PM and average them to get our expected value at that time.
Users are not limited to selecting a single period, and can group volume using a combination of all the available periods.
Do note that when on lower timeframes, only having higher periods will lead to less precise expected values. Enabling periods that are too low might prevent grouping. Finally, enabling a lot of periods will, on the other hand, lead to a lot of groups, preventing the ability to get effective expected values.
In order to avoid changing periods by navigating across multiple timeframes, an "Auto Selection" setting is provided.
🔹 Group Length
The length setting allows controlling the maximum size of a volume group. Using higher lengths will provide an expected value on more historical data, further highlighting recurring patterns.
🔹 Recommended Assets
Obtaining the expected volume for a specific period (time of the day, day of the week, quarter, etc) is most effective when on assets showing higher signs of periodicity in their trading activity.
This is visible on stocks, futures, and forex pairs, which tend to have a defined, recognizable interval with usually higher trading activity.
Assets such as cryptocurrencies will usually not have a clearly defined periodic trading activity, which lowers the validity of forecasts produced by the tool, as well as any conclusions originating from the volume to expected volume comparisons.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Maximum number of records in a volume group for a specific period. Older values are discarded.
Smooth: Period of a SMA used to smooth volume. The smoothing affects the expected value.
🔹 Periods
Auto Selection: Automatically choose a practical combination of periods based on the chart timeframe.
Custom periods can be used if disabling "Auto Selection". Available periods include:
- Minutes
- Hours
- Days (can be: Day of Week, Day of Month, Day of Year)
- Months
- Quarters
🔹 Summary
Method: Method used to obtain the expected value. Options include Mean (default) or Percentile.
Percentile: Percentile number used if "Method" is set to "Percentile". A value of 50 will effectively use a median for the expected value.
🔹 Forecast
Forecast Window: Number of bars ahead for which the expected volume is predicted.
Style: Style settings of the forecast.

Softmax Normalized Jurik Filter Histogram [Loxx]Softmax Normalized Jurik Filter Histogram is a Jurik Filter that is morphed into a normalized oscillator from -1 to 1.
What is the Softmax function?
The softmax function, also known as softargmax: or normalized exponential function, converts a vector of K real numbers into a probability distribution of K possible outcomes. It is a generalization of the logistic function to multiple dimensions, and used in multinomial logistic regression. The softmax function is often used as the last activation function of a neural network to normalize the output of a network to a probability distribution over predicted output classes, based on Luce's choice axiom.
What is Jurik Volty used in the Juirk Filter?
One of the lesser known qualities of Juirk smoothing is that the Jurik smoothing process is adaptive. "Jurik Volty" (a sort of market volatility ) is what makes Jurik smoothing adaptive. The Jurik Volty calculation can be used as both a standalone indicator and to smooth other indicators that you wish to make adaptive.
What is the Jurik Moving Average?
Have you noticed how moving averages add some lag (delay) to your signals? ... especially when price gaps up or down in a big move, and you are waiting for your moving average to catch up? Wait no more! JMA eliminates this problem forever and gives you the best of both worlds: low lag and smooth lines.
