Malama's 3 AmigosThe "Malama's 3 Amigos" is an original script that combines several well-known technical indicators, including MACD, RSI, and wave trend analysis, to create a robust trading signal generator. The integration of these components allows for a more nuanced understanding of market dynamics:
MACD and RSI: These indicators provide insights into momentum and trend direction, helping to identify potential reversals or continuations.
Wave Trend Analysis: This component adds a layer of volatility assessment, allowing traders to gauge overbought and oversold conditions.
Volume Filtering: By incorporating volume analysis, the script ensures that signals are validated by market participation, reducing the likelihood of false signals.
This script stands out from public open-source alternatives by offering a unique combination of trend meters and wave trend analysis, tailored for traders seeking a comprehensive dashboard for market analysis.
Detailed Methodology ("How It Works")
Core Logic
Wave Trend Calculation: The script employs a wave trend calculation that utilizes exponential moving averages (EMAs) to assess price momentum. The wave trend indicator generates two lines, which are used to identify potential bullish and bearish conditions based on crossovers and overbought/oversold levels.
Trend Meter Signals: The script features three customizable trend meters that can be set to various configurations (e.g., MACD crossovers, RSI conditions). Each trend meter evaluates market conditions and provides a bullish or bearish signal based on the selected method.
Signal Generation:
Long Entry Signal: A long signal is generated when all three trend meters indicate bullish conditions, the wave trend shows a bullish crossover, the RSI delta is above a specified threshold, and the price is above a defined moving average.
Short Entry Signal: Conversely, a short signal is triggered when all trend meters indicate bearish conditions, the wave trend shows a bearish crossover, the RSI delta is below a specified threshold, and the price is below a defined moving average.
Signal Strength Calculation: The script calculates the strength of the generated signals by summing the number of bullish or bearish conditions met. This provides traders with a clear indication of the reliability of the signal.
Backtesting and Probability Features
The script does not include built-in backtesting features; however, traders can manually backtest the signals generated by the indicator. It is recommended to consider realistic trading conditions, including commission, slippage, and risk management parameters, when evaluating the effectiveness of the signals.
Strategy Results and Risk Management
The "Malama's 3 Amigos" indicator does not inherently include backtesting capabilities, but traders are encouraged to apply the following assumptions for effective risk management:
Commission and Slippage: Traders should account for realistic trading costs when evaluating performance.
Account Sizing: It is advisable to limit risk to 5-10% of equity per trade.
Trade Frequency: A sufficient number of trades should be executed to validate the strategy's effectiveness.
Default Settings
The default settings are designed to provide a balanced approach to trading. Traders can customize parameters such as lookback periods for moving averages and volume filters to suit their trading style.
User Settings and Customization
The script includes several user-customizable inputs:
Trend Meter Selections: Traders can choose from various trend meter configurations to tailor the indicator to their preferences.
Volume Filter: Users can enable or disable volume filtering and set the lookback period for volume analysis.
RSI Delta Threshold: This parameter allows traders to define the sensitivity of the RSI delta condition for signal generation.
Moving Average Types and Lengths: Traders can select between Simple Moving Averages (SMA) and Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) and adjust their lengths.
These settings influence the behavior of the indicator and the signals generated, allowing for a personalized trading experience.
Visualizations and Chart Setup
The "Malama's 3 Amigos" indicator plots several key elements on the chart:
Wave Trend Lines: Two wave trend lines are displayed, with color coding to indicate bullish (green) and bearish (red) conditions.
Signal Markers: Buy (green triangle) and sell (red triangle) signals are plotted on the chart to indicate potential entry points.
Info Panel: An information panel can be displayed on the chart, providing real-time updates on the status of trend meters, wave trend conditions, and entry signals.
The visual elements are designed to be clear and concise, ensuring that traders can quickly interpret the information presented.
Volumedelta
Bullish Volume AnomalyAnomaly is designed to spot hidden bullish accumulation before price actually breaks out, by blending a trend-aware volume measure with a volatility-adjusted price channel. Here’s how it works:
First, it runs a simple ATR-based zigzag to identify the current swing direction. Volume is then signed (+ for up-trends, – for down-trends) and cumulatively summed. By converting that cumulative signed volume into a z-score over the past 480 bars, we get a sense of when buying or selling pressure is unusually strong relative to its own history.
At the same time, price itself is normalized into a z-score over the same 480-bar window, and its change over that period is also tracked. These two measures—volume z-score (s) and price z-score (p)—are compared, and the indicator looks for moments when s outpaces p by at least two standard deviations (s – p > 2), while price momentum change remains low (c < 1) and the net volume is positive (s > 0). That combination flags instances where heavy buying is taking place but price hasn’t yet reacted.
To define a dynamic trading zone, it plots a 288-bar EMA of price as the middle band (t2), and builds upper and lower bands around it using the average close-to-open range multiplied by a user-set factor. The lower band (t1) sits beneath the EMA by that volatility-based margin. A signal fires only when the bar’s high stays below t1—meaning price is still “sleeping” under the lower volatility boundary even as bullish volume builds up.
Together, these filters home in on anomalies: strong, trend-aligned volume surges that outstrip price movement, occurring while price sits below its lower volatility band. In practice, that often marks early accumulation before a breakout. You can tweak the ATR length and multiplier for the zigzag, as well as the channel period and range factor, to suit different markets or timeframes.
Footprint BoxesThe Footprint Boxes indicator takes each higher-timeframe candle and builds a mini “footprint” map of where buying and selling happened within that bar’s range. You choose how many price bins to split the candle into and which lower timeframe to sample. For each small interval it grabs the signed volume (positive when the close is above the open, negative when below) and distributes that volume evenly across every bin touched by the price move in that interval.
Once the bar closes , the script finds the true high and low of all the lower-timeframe candles that make up the parent bar, divides that span into your chosen number of bins, and sums up the signed volume in each bin. It then draws a row of colored boxes beside the bar: green-tinted boxes for net buying and red-tinted ones for net selling, with shade intensity proportional to the percentage of total volume in that bin . Each box is labeled with its percentage of the bar’s total volume delta.
Finally, it draws one extra box with a bold white border showing the bar’s overall delta (net buying minus selling) as an absolute number. This gives you both a granular view of intra-bar activity and a quick glance at whether the buyers or sellers dominated the entire candle.
Trailing Cumulative Volume DeltaShort Description:
A dynamic volume delta indicator that calculates a trailing sum of net buying/selling pressure over a user-defined number of recent bars, offering a more adaptive view of order flow momentum compared to fixed-anchor CVD.
Overview:
The Trailing Cumulative Volume Delta (TCVD) indicator provides a powerful way to analyze market sentiment by tracking the net difference between buying and selling volume. Unlike traditional Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicators that typically reset at fixed intervals (e.g., daily, weekly), the TCVD calculates a rolling sum of volume delta over a specified number of recent bars. This "trailing" approach offers a more fluid and responsive measure of recent order flow dynamics.
How it Works:
Per-Bar Delta Calculation: For each bar on your chart, the indicator first calculates the net Volume Delta. This is done by looking at a finer, user-configurable Lower Timeframe (e.g., 1-minute data for a 15-minute chart bar) to determine the aggressive buying vs. selling volume within that bar.
Trailing Sum: The indicator then sums these individual per-bar net deltas over a user-defined Trailing Bars lookback period. For example, if "Trailing Bars" is set to 20, the TCVD value will represent the cumulative net delta of the last 20 bars.
Visualization:
The TCVD is plotted in a "MACD-Columns-Style" in a separate pane.
Teal: When the TCVD value is increasing (suggesting growing net buying pressure or diminishing net selling pressure over the trailing period).
Red: When the TCVD value is decreasing (suggesting growing net selling pressure or diminishing net buying pressure over the trailing period).
White: When it is returning to the mean.
How to Interpret and Use TCVD:
Trend Strength & Momentum:
A rising TCVD suggests that, on average over the trailing period, buying pressure is dominant or strengthening. This can confirm bullish price action or indicate underlying strength.
A falling TCVD suggests that selling pressure is dominant or strengthening, potentially confirming bearish price action or indicating weakness.
Divergences:
Unlike other Divergences, the CVD has two different types of Divergences: a) Absorption and b) Exhaustion. You only want to trade the Absorption pattern.
Zero Line Crossovers:
TCVD crossing above the zero line can indicate a shift towards net positive buying pressure over the lookback period.
TCVD crossing below the zero line can indicate a shift towards net positive selling pressure.
Confirmation: Use TCVD to confirm breakouts or breakdowns. A price breakout accompanied by a strongly rising TCVD is generally more reliable.
Key Settings:
Trailing Bars: (Default: 10)
Determines the number of recent bars to include in the cumulative delta sum.
Shorter periods make the TCVD more responsive to immediate changes.
Longer periods provide a smoother, longer-term view of order flow.
Use custom timeframe: (Checkbox, Default: false)
Allows you to override the automatic selection of the lower timeframe for delta calculation.
Timeframe for Delta Calculation: (Default: "1" - 1 minute)
Specifies the lower timeframe data used to calculate the volume delta for each individual chart bar.
Choosing a very fine timeframe (e.g., seconds) can provide high precision but may be limited by data availability or processing load.
If "Use custom timeframe" is unchecked, the script attempts to choose a sensible default based on your chart's timeframe (e.g., "1S" for second charts, "1" for intraday, "5" for daily, "60" for weekly+).
Examples:
Confirming Breakout Strength:
Price breaks out above a significant resistance level.
If the TCVD is also sharply rising and has perhaps crossed above its zero line, it provides confirmation that strong buying interest is fueling the breakout, increasing confidence in its validity.
Important Notes:
This indicator requires reliable volume data from your broker/data feed to function correctly. If your chart does not have volume, or if the volume data is unreliable, the TCVD will not be accurate.
Like all indicators, TCVD is best used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, in conjunction with price action analysis and other indicators or tools.
Experiment with the Trailing Bars and Timeframe for Delta Calculation settings to find what best suits your trading style, the asset you are analyzing, and the chart timeframe you are using.

TrueDelta Candles📖 Description:
TrueDelta Candles is a precision tool for traders who want deeper insight into market sentiment through real-time volume delta analysis. Rather than using traditional volume bars, this indicator colors each chart candle based on the net volume delta—the difference between buying and selling volume—fetched from a lower timeframe.
🚀 Key Features:
🎯 Real Candle Coloring: Colors actual price candles based on delta volume—green (buying pressure), red (selling pressure).
⏱️ Multi-Timeframe Volume Analysis: Automatically selects the appropriate lower timeframe for better delta approximation, or lets you set a custom one.
🔬 Order Flow Insight: Visualizes the tug-of-war between buyers and sellers within each candle.
⚡ Lightweight & Non-Intrusive: No clutter—just clean color overlays on your chart candles.
🔄 Live Updating: Responds instantly as new data arrives.
🧠 Ideal For:
Intraday and scalping strategies.
Momentum and breakout traders.
Order flow enthusiasts looking for a visual edge.
🛠️ How It Works:
Behind the scenes, the script uses ta.requestVolumeDelta() to retrieve granular buy/sell volume data from a lower timeframe. The net delta volume then determines whether the candle is colored green (positive delta) or red (negative delta). This makes it easy to spot when market pressure aligns or diverges from price action.
⚙️ Settings:
Use Custom Timeframe: Manually select the lower timeframe used for delta calculation (e.g., "1", "5").
Default Auto Mode: Automatically adapts to your current chart resolution for optimal data balance.
If you're serious about understanding the real dynamics behind every candle, TrueDelta Candles adds an essential layer of volume-based context that price alone can't offer.
Approx. Footprint: Volume DeltaThis indicator brings you a simplified “footprint” view by charting the volume delta—the imbalance between bullish and bearish volume—alongside total bar volume.
Delta Bars: Green/red columns show where buyers (close > open) or sellers (close < open) dominated each bar.
Total Volume: Semi-transparent gray columns in the background give you overall context.
No Hidden Data: Works on any symbol/timeframe without tick-by-tick or bid/ask feeds.
Use it to quickly spot bars with strong buying or selling pressure, identify momentum shifts, and confirm breakouts or reversals—all within TradingView’s standard volume streams.
Multi-Layer Volume Profile [BigBeluga]A powerful multi-resolution volume analysis tool that stacks multiple profiles of historical trading activity to reveal true market structure.
This indicator breaks down total and delta volume distribution across time at four adjustable depths — enabling traders to spot major POCs, volume shelves, and zones of price acceptance or rejection with unmatched clarity.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Multi-Layer Volume Profiles:
Up to 4 separate volume profiles are stacked on the chart:
- Profile 1: Full period
- Profile 2: Half-length
- Profile 3: Quarter-length
- Profile 4: One-eighth-length
This layering helps traders assess confluence across different time horizons.
Custom Bin Resolution:
Each profile uses a customizable number of bins to control visual precision.
More bins = higher granularity, fewer bins = smoother profile.
Precise POC Highlighting:
The price level with the maximum traded volume in each profile is highlighted with a thick blue POC line.
This key level shows the most accepted price for each period.
Total and Delta Volume Labels:
- Total Volume: Displays cumulative volume over the profile period at the top of the profile box.
- Delta Volume: The difference between bullish and bearish volume is labeled at the base, showing directional pressure.
Positive delta = buyer dominance, negative delta = seller dominance.
Range Levels:
Each profile includes horizontal reference lines showing its high, low, bounds.
These edges often align with price reaction zones and become future resistance/support.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
For each active profile, the indicator:
- Collects price range (highs/lows) across the selected `length`
- Divides this range into equal bins
- Assigns volume into bins based on candle close location
- Aggregates volume per bin to form the profile (polylines)
Separately tracks:
- Total volume (sum of all candles in range)
- Delta volume (sum of candle volumes: positive for bullish, negative for bearish closes)
Highlights the bin with maximum volume (POC)
and marks it with a thick blue line.
Adds auxiliary lines for high/low of each profile box
and total/delta volume tags with tooltips.
🔵 USAGE
Spot Acceptance Zones:
Thick, flat areas on the profile show where price stayed longest — ideal for building positions.
Identify Rejection Zones:
Thin volume areas signal price rejection and are often used for stop placement or entries.
Delta Confirmation:
Use strong positive/negative delta readings as directional bias confirmation for breakout trades.
Confluence Detection:
Watch for overlapping POCs between layers to identify extremely strong support/resistance zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Multi-Layer Volume Profile equips traders with a deeply layered market structure view.
Whether you're scalping intraday levels or analyzing macro support zones, the ability to stack volume perspectives, visualize directional delta, and anchor POCs provides an edge in anticipating market moves.
Use this tool to validate entries, confirm structure, and make more informed, volume-aware trading decisions.

Radonezh Kir-Mary Beauty editionOverview
Dedicated to rev. Kirill and Mary of Radonezh.
This indicator uniquely combines Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) and price momentum with dynamic normalization to identify trend strength, reversals, supported by a combination of more traditional signal logic. Unlike traditional momentum oscillators, it integrates volume dynamics and advanced directional index to filter false signals and adapts to market volatility through automated scaling, offering a holistic view of price-action reliability.
Core Innovations
Adapive Signals: Uses a proprietary correlation algorithm to weight momentum values, reducing noise in choppy markets.
Lower timeframe entry points: (currently 1 minute only) and HTF line statuses for timeframe synchronisation (currently only 15 minutes and 1 hour status) for super-precise entry points
Automatic drawing of resistance and support lines based on the proprietary algorithm for detecting volume/price synchronization and desynchronization levels.
"Victor-predictor": price chart pointing line that shows where the price supposedly goes based on the machine-learning simulation with pine script based on the main 3 traditional classical indicators. Works independently from the rest of the indicator. Developed by @Skorcez (same team).
Automatic recognition of possible long and short stop order placement levels. I do not filter them so use only within the general context of the indicator.
Key Features
Volume-Price Correlation: CVD reflects institutional order flow, while price momentum quantifies trend acceleration.
Auto-Scaling: Adjusts output range based on recent volatility (ATR), preventing overbought/oversold false positives.
Visual Alerts: Marks divergence zones with colored trendlines and labels (regular/hidden bullish/bearish).
Unique Value
By fusing volume delta dynamics with momentum filtering, this script addresses a critical gap in traditional indicators that treat price and volume in isolation. The closed-source logic focuses on institutional accumulation/distribution patterns, providing actionable signals without repainting.
Compatible with all assets and timeframes. No promotional content or external links included.

Position Signals via DEMA Momentum Line Coloration
The main indicator line (orange/black) determines entry/exits based on its color intensity, which reflects trend strength and confirmation from filtered signals. Here's how it works:
Long Positions (Green/Teal)
Weak Long:
Dark Green = Price momentum rising without volume/Machine Learning (ML) confirmation.
Example: main line turns green but lacks volume spikes or ML buy signals.
Strong Long:
Bright Green = Momentum confirmed by:
Volume Surge: Volume exceeds 1.5x 20-period average.
ML Confirmation: ML score > 0.7 with price above EMA20.
Post-Drop Recovery: Price rebounds after a >1% drop on high volume. (not active as of now, will add a bit later, still working on it)
Short Positions (Red/Orange)
Weak Short:
Orange = Momentum declines without bearish confirmation.
Strong Short:
Bright Red = Confirmed by:
Volume Divergence: Rising price with falling CVD momentum.
ML Bearish: ML score > 0.7 + price below EMA20.
Overextension: RSI > 70 + price above upper Bollinger Band.
Neutral (Gray)
Flat Momentum:
Gray = Momentum near zero (±0.05) + low volatility (ATR < 1% of price).
Action: Avoid trades until color intensifies or stay in a position with a trailing stoploss until it's clear where the market goes (use HTF signal colour table to know what to expect).
Key Features
Adaptive Confirmation:
Colors brighten when signals align across:
Volume acceleration
RSI and a few other extremes (oversold/overbought)
Machine Learning predictions
Dynamic Risk Zones:
Gray areas highlight low-confidence periods, while bright colors mark high-probability entries.
Usage: Enter longs when the line turns bright green and exits when it fades to dark green/gray. Reverse for shorts. Combine with the built-in Victor-Predictor signals for optimal accuracy

Puts vs Longs vs Price Oscillator SwiftEdgeWhat is this Indicator?
The "Low-Latency Puts vs Longs vs Price Oscillator" is a custom technical indicator built for TradingView to help traders visualize buying and selling activity in a market without access to order book data. It displays three lines in an oscillator below the price chart:
Green Line (Longs): Represents the strength of buying activity (bullish pressure).
Red Line (Puts): Represents the strength of selling activity (bearish pressure).
Yellow Line (Price): Shows the asset’s price in a scaled format for direct comparison.
The indicator uses price movements, volume, and momentum to estimate when buyers or sellers are active, providing a quick snapshot of market dynamics. It’s optimized for fast response to price changes (low latency), making it useful for both short-term and longer-term trading strategies.
How Does it Work?
Since TradingView doesn’t provide direct access to order book data (which shows real-time buy and sell orders), this indicator approximates buying and selling pressure using commonly available data: price, volume, and a momentum measure called Rate of Change (ROC). Here’s how it combines these elements:
Price Movement: The indicator checks if the price is rising or falling compared to the previous candlestick. A rising price suggests buying (longs), while a falling price suggests selling (puts).
Volume: Volume acts as a "weight" to measure the strength of these price moves. Higher volume during a price increase boosts the green line, while higher volume during a price decrease boosts the red line. This mimics how large orders in an order book would influence the market.
Rate of Change (ROC): ROC measures how fast the price is changing over a set period (e.g., 5 candlesticks). It adds a momentum filter—strong upward momentum reinforces buying signals, while strong downward momentum reinforces selling signals.
These components are calculated for each candlestick and summed over a short lookback period (e.g., 5 candlesticks) to create the green and red lines. The yellow line is simply the asset’s closing price scaled down to fit the oscillator’s range, allowing you to compare buying/selling strength directly with price action.
Why Combine These Elements?
The combination of price, volume, and ROC is intentional and synergistic:
Price alone isn’t enough—it tells you what happened but not how strong the move was.
Volume adds context by showing the intensity behind price changes, much like how order book volume indicates real buying or selling interest.
ROC ensures the indicator captures momentum, filtering out weak or random price moves and focusing on significant trends, similar to how aggressive order execution might appear in an order book.
Together, they create a balanced picture of market activity that’s more reliable than any single factor alone. The goal is to simulate the insights you’d get from an order book—where you’d see buy/sell imbalances—using data available in TradingView.
How to Use It
Setup:
Add the indicator to your chart via TradingView’s Pine Editor by copying and pasting the script.
Adjust the inputs to suit your trading style:
Lookback Period: Number of candlesticks (default 5) to sum buying/selling activity. Shorter = more responsive; longer = smoother.
Price Scale Factor: Scales the yellow price line (default 0.001). Increase for high-priced assets (e.g., 0.01 for indices like DAX) or decrease for low-priced ones (e.g., 0.0001 for crypto).
ROC Period: Candlesticks for momentum calculation (default 5). Shorter = faster response.
ROC Weight: How much momentum affects the signal (default 0.5). Higher = stronger momentum influence.
Volume Threshold: Minimum volume multiplier (default 1.5) to boost signals during high activity.
Reading the Oscillator:
Green Line Above Yellow: Strong buying pressure—price is rising with volume and momentum support. Consider this a bullish signal.
Red Line Above Yellow: Strong selling pressure—price is falling with volume and momentum support. Consider this a bearish signal.
Green/Red Crossovers: When the green line crosses above the red, it suggests buyers are taking control. When the red crosses above the green, sellers may be dominating.
Yellow Line Context: Compare green/red lines to the yellow price line to see if buying/selling strength aligns with price trends.
Trading Examples:
Bullish Setup: Green line spikes above yellow after a price breakout with high volume (e.g., DAX opening jump). Enter a long position if confirmed by other indicators.
Bearish Setup: Red line rises above yellow during a price drop with increasing volume. Look for a short opportunity.
Reversal Warning: If the green line stays high while price (yellow) flattens or drops, it could signal overbought conditions—be cautious.
What Makes It Unique?
Unlike traditional oscillators like RSI or MACD, which focus solely on price momentum or trends, this indicator blends price, volume, and momentum into a three-line system that mimics order book dynamics. Its low-latency design (short lookback and no heavy smoothing) makes it react quickly to market shifts, ideal for volatile markets like DAX or forex. The visual separation of buying (green) and selling (red) against price (yellow) offers a clear, intuitive way to spot imbalances without needing complex data.
Tips and Customization
Volatile Markets: Use a shorter lookback (e.g., 3) and ROC period (e.g., 3) for faster signals.
Stable Markets: Increase lookback (e.g., 10) for smoother, less noisy lines.
Scaling: If the green/red lines dwarf the yellow, adjust Price Scale Factor up (e.g., 0.01) to balance them.
Experiment: Test on your asset (stocks, crypto, indices) and tweak inputs to match its behavior.
Intraday Macro & Flow Indicator# IntraMacroFlow Indicator
## Introduction
IntraMacroFlow is a volume and delta-based indicator that identifies significant price movements within trading sessions. It generates signals when volume spikes coincide with quality price movement, filtered by RSI to avoid overbought/oversold conditions.
> **Note:** This indicator provides multiple signals and should be combined with additional analysis methods such as support/resistance, trend direction, and price action patterns.
## Inputs
### Volume Settings
* **Volume Lookback Period** (14) - Number of bars for volume moving average calculation
* **Volume Threshold Multiplier** (1.5) - Required volume increase over average to generate signals
* **Delta Threshold** (0.3) - Required close-to-open movement relative to bar range (higher = stronger movement)
### Session Configuration
* **Use Dynamic Session Detection** (true) - Automatically determine session times
* **Highlight Market Open Period** (true) - Highlight first third of trading session
* **Highlight Mid-Session Period** (true) - Highlight middle portion of trading session
* **Detect Signals Throughout Whole Session** (true) - Find signals in entire session
* **Session Time** ("0930-1600") - Trading hours in HHMM-HHMM format
* **Session Type** ("Regular") - Select Regular, Extended, or Custom session
### Manual Session Settings
Used when dynamic detection is disabled:

* **Manual Session Open Minute** (30)
* **Manual Session Open Duration** (60)
* **Manual Mid-Session Start Hour** (12)
* **Manual Mid-Session End Hour** (14)
## How It Works
The indicator analyzes each bar using three primary conditions:
1. **Volume Condition**: Current volume > Average volume × Threshold
2. **Delta Condition**: |Close-Open|/Range > Delta threshold
3. **Time Condition**: Bar falls within configured session times
When all conditions are met:
* Bullish signals appear when close > open and RSI < 70
* Bearish signals appear when close < open and RSI > 30
## Display Elements
### Shapes and Colors
* Green triangles below bars - Bullish signals
* Red triangles above bars - Bearish signals
* Blue background - Market open period
* Purple background - Mid-session period
* Bar coloring - Green (bullish), Red (bearish), or unchanged
### Information Panel
A dynamic label shows:
* Current volume relative to average (Vol)
* Delta value for current bar (Delta)
* RSI value (RSI)
* Session status (Active/Closed)
## Calculation Method
```
// Volume Condition
volumeMA = ta.sma(volume, lookbackPeriod)
volumeCondition = volume > volumeMA * volumeThreshold
// Delta Calculation (price movement quality)
priceRange = high - low
delta = math.abs(close - open) / priceRange
deltaCondition = delta > deltaThreshold
// Direction and RSI Filter
bullishBias = close > open and entrySignal and not (rsi > 70)
bearishBias = close < open and entrySignal and not (rsi < 30)
```

Order Block Candle [TradeWithRon]Order Block Candle
This indicator is designed to help traders identify and visualize key movements within the market. These order blocks are areas where significant buying or selling has occurred, often leading to a strong price reaction. This script detects both bullish and bearish order blocks (with volume spike), marking them directly on your chart, and offers a variety of customization options to enhance your trading experience.
Features:
Bullish and Bearish Candles: Bullish Order Block: Identified when the current price creates a higher high and closes above the previous price, indicating a zone of potential buying activity by institutional traders.
Bearish Order Block: Identified when the current price creates a lower low and closes below the previous price, suggesting strong institutional selling.
Volume-Weighted Analysis: The indicator allows traders to incorporate volume into the order block detection. When a volume pivot (a significant change in volume) is detected, it strengthens the validity of the identified order block.
Customizable Visuals:
- Users can adjust the color and style of order block lines, including solid, dashed, or dotted styles, to suit personal preferences.
- Bullish Order Block Color: Choose from a range of colors to highlight bullish order blocks (default is green).

- Users can also customize the color and style of the lines representing order blocks, helping traders visually track key levels.
Candle Body or. Wick: The indicator provides flexibility in defining the price range of the order block. Traders can choose whether to calculate the order block using the candle body (open and close) or the full wick (high and low) to suit their trading strategy.
Dynamic Line Extensions: Order block lines are dynamically extended to provide ongoing support and resistance levels. When a price breaks an order block line, the line changes to a dotted style, marking it as "broken." This allows traders to easily spot when the market invalidates an order block.
Alerts:
- Alert for Bullish Order Block: Get notified when a new bullish order block is detected.
- Alert for Bearish Order Block: Receive alerts when a bearish order block is identified.
- Alert for Broken Lines: Set up alerts to be notified when a bullish or bearish order block line is broken, giving traders a signal for potential market shifts.
Zone Management:
- The indicator tracks upper and lower zone information, marking significant price levels where institutional buying or selling might occur. Traders can adjust settings to define how many previous lines should be displayed on the chart for reference.
Optional Mitigated Order Blocks:
- A feature that highlights mitigated (neutralized) order blocks with a specific color and line style, offering additional insight into market behavior.
Input Settings:
- Length: The number of bars to the left and right of a pivot point for it to be considered a high or low.
- Candle Body: Option to use the candle body for calculations (as opposed to the wick).
- Bullish and Bearish Candle Color: Customizable colors for bullish and bearish order blocks.
- Open Line Style: Choose between solid, dashed, or dotted line styles for order block visualization.
- Removed Old Lines: Control the number of broken lines shown on the chart.
- Mitigated Line Style: Select line style for mitigated order blocks.
- Volume Use: Enable volume-based detection for stronger order block validation.
How to Use:
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to trade around institutional support and resistance levels. The bullish and bearish order blocks can serve as key entry or exit points, while broken lines offer dynamic support/resistance that adapt to market changes. Use the alerts to stay informed of critical market developments and adjust your trading strategy accordingly.

Volume Delta DashboardHow It Works:
This script creates a Volume Delta Dashboard on TradingView, which helps traders visualize the balance between buying and selling volume (Volume Delta) directly on the chart. Here's a breakdown of the key components:
Volume Delta Calculation:
The script calculates the Volume Delta by comparing the volume of bars where the price closed higher (buying pressure) to those where the price closed lower (selling pressure).
Positive Volume Delta (green background) indicates more buying activity than selling, suggesting upward price movement. Negative Volume Delta (red background) indicates more selling than buying, signaling a potential downward move.
Smoothing with EMA:
To make the volume delta trend smoother and more consistent, an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the Volume Delta is used. This helps to reduce noise and highlight the prevailing buying or selling pressure over a 14-period.
Dynamic Position Selection:
The user can choose where the Volume Delta dashboard table will appear on the chart by selecting a position: top-left, top-right, bottom-left, or bottom-right. This makes the indicator adaptable to different chart setups.
Coloring:
The background of the table changes color based on the value of the Volume Delta. Green indicates a positive delta (more buyers), and Red indicates a negative delta (more sellers).
Use of This Strategy:
This Volume Delta Dashboard strategy is particularly useful for traders who want to:
Monitor Market Sentiment:
By observing the volume delta, traders can get a sense of whether there is more buying or selling pressure in the market. Positive volume delta can indicate a bullish sentiment, while negative delta can point to bearish sentiment.
Confirm Price Action:
The Volume Delta can be used alongside price action to confirm the strength of a price move. For example, if the price is moving up and the volume delta is positive, it suggests that the price increase is supported by buying pressure.
Identify Divergences:
Volume delta can help traders spot divergences between price and volume. For example, if the price is moving higher but the volume delta is negative, it may suggest a weakening trend and a potential reversal.
Optimize Entry/Exit Points:
By understanding the relationship between price movement and volume, traders can make more informed decisions about entering or exiting positions. For instance, a sudden increase in buying volume (positive delta) may indicate a good entry point for a long position.
Overall, the Volume Delta Dashboard can serve as a powerful tool for improving decision-making, by providing real-time insights into market dynamics and trading sentiment.
CVD Divergence Insights📘 CVD Divergence Insights – by Colicoid
Pine Script v6 | Volume Delta Divergence Oscillator with Spike Detection
⸻
🔍 Overview
CVD Divergence Insights is a volume-aware oscillator and divergence spike detector that helps you spot smart money activity, absorption, failed pressure, and hidden strength or weakness — even when price action alone gives little away.
It works by comparing normalized Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) against normalized price movement, and optionally applying a volume-weighting layer to highlight when aggressive participation is truly behind the divergence. The result is a dynamic visual tool that identifies tension in the market, and helps you trade based on how that tension resolves.
⸻
🧠 Core Concept
• When price moves one way and CVD moves another, it reflects imbalance between aggression and result.
• Divergence is not a trigger — it’s a build-up of pressure.
• The real edge lies in the resolution of that pressure.
• Optional volume-weighting helps you ignore noise and focus on high-conviction moves only.
⸻
⚙️ How It Works
1. CVD Calculation
CVD is generated using lower-timeframe delta volume (buy vs. sell pressure), accumulated per bar.
2. Oscillator
A normalized divergence between the smoothed CVD and smoothed price.
3. Volume Weighting (optional)
Emphasizes divergences occurring on higher-than-normal volume, deprioritizes low-volume noise.
4. Signal Line (optional)
A short EMA of the oscillator to help track momentum shifts (hidden by default).
5. Divergence Spikes
Statistical spike detection using standard deviation — green/red dots highlight unusually large divergence activity.
⸻
🎛️ Inputs
Anchor Period
Higher timeframe where the CVD is accumulated and processed.
Lower Timeframe
Optional override for granularity of buy/sell volume data.
SMA Length
Used for smoothing both price and CVD before divergence is calculated.
Volume Weighted?
Enables adaptive weighting based on relative volume size.
Volume Normalization Length
Lookback period used to define what is “normal” volume.
Divergence Spike Threshold
StdDev-based threshold to detect abnormally large divergences.
Signal Line Length
Controls the EMA smoothing of the optional signal line (hidden by default).
⸻
📈 Trade Setup Example: Hidden Bullish Divergence
1. Price forms a higher low, but CVD forms a lower low — hidden bullish divergence.
2. This shows aggressive sellers are trying, but price is resilient — likely absorption.
3. You wait for a "convergent signal bar":
• A bullish candle with strong structure or body
• Confirmed by CVD starting to turn upward
4. That’s your trigger bar — the tension resolves upward.
⸻
🤝 Recommended Pairings
For best results, combine CVD Divergence Insights with the companion script:
🔗 Cumulative Volume Delta Line (also by Colicoid)
This lets you:
• See the raw CVD line and its SMA visually
• Spot standard and hidden divergences in price/CVD directly
• Use the Insights indicator to evaluate divergence quality and flag aggressive bull/bear behavior
• Use the same SMA length on both indicators for alignment
👉 Tip: To save screen space, drag the CVD Line indicator into the same panel as CVD Divergence Insights.
⸻
🧰 Why Use This?
• ✅ Catch absorption setups and failed pressure zones
• ✅ Filter out low-quality divergences using volume context
• ✅ Understand why price is hesitating or breaking out
• ✅ Add smart confirmation to breakout/reversal trades
• ✅ Align your execution with who’s actually in control

Money Flow Divergence IndicatorOverview
The Money Flow Divergence Indicator is designed to help traders and investors identify key macroeconomic turning points by analyzing the relationship between U.S. M2 money supply growth and the S&P 500 Index (SPX). By comparing these two crucial economic indicators, the script highlights periods where market liquidity is outpacing or lagging behind stock market growth, offering potential buy and sell signals based on macroeconomic trends.
How It Works
1. Data Sources
S&P 500 Index (SPX500USD): Tracks the stock market performance.
U.S. M2 Money Supply (M2SL - Federal Reserve Economic Data): Represents available liquidity in the economy.
2. Growth Rate Calculation
SPX Growth: Percentage change in the S&P 500 index over time.
M2 Growth: Percentage change in M2 money supply over time.
Growth Gap (Delta): The difference between M2 growth and SPX growth, showing whether liquidity is fueling or lagging behind market performance.
3. Visualization
A histogram displays the growth gap over time:
Green Bars: M2 growth exceeds SPX growth (potential bullish signal).
Red Bars: SPX growth exceeds M2 growth (potential bearish signal).
A zero line helps distinguish between positive and negative growth gaps.
How to Use It
✅ Bullish Signal: When green bars appear consistently, indicating that liquidity is outpacing stock market growth. This suggests a favorable environment for buying or holding positions.
❌ Bearish Signal: When red bars appear consistently, meaning stock market growth outpaces liquidity expansion, signaling potential overvaluation or a market correction.
Best Timeframes for Analysis
This indicator works best on monthly timeframes (M) since it is designed for long-term investors and macro traders who focus on broad economic cycles.
Who Should Use This Indicator?
📈 Long-term investors looking for macroeconomic trends.
📊 Swing traders who incorporate liquidity analysis in their strategies.
💰 Portfolio managers assessing market liquidity conditions.
🚀 Use this indicator to stay ahead of market trends and make informed investment decisions based on macroeconomic liquidity shifts! 🚀
ZenAlgo - BenderThis script combines several volume-based methodologies into a single chart overlay to help traders analyze market participation and volume distribution. It aggregates volume from multiple sources—spot and perpetual markets across different exchanges—and processes it to display various insights directly on the chart.
The script provides a detailed view of both individual-bar volume and broader aggregated trends. It calculates certain values, plots different shapes and overlays, and includes an optional informational table. However, it does not offer financial signals or predict future price movements. Instead, it presents multiple volume and range-related highlights for educational or analytical observations.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the core elements in this script:
Core Data Calculation and Aggregation
To build a comprehensive volume picture, the script retrieves volume data from multiple predefined exchanges for both Spot and Perpetual pairs. The volume for each bar is processed in Aggregated mode , meaning it combines data across selected sources to produce a single composite volume value.
The script applies average-based aggregation to calculate the final volume figures. The total volume is then used as the basis for further calculations, such as buy/sell volume decomposition and Delta analysis.
Buy/Sell Volume Decomposition
Each bar’s total volume is separated into an estimated buy portion and a sell portion. This decomposition uses logic that considers wick length, body size, and whether the bar closed higher or lower than it opened. The script assigns fractions of the total volume to the upper wick, lower wick, and body, then multiplies these by the total aggregated volume to estimate buy and sell volumes.
This breakdown is calculated separately for spot-only volume , perp-only volume , and their aggregated sums, allowing traders to analyze how much of each bar’s volume is estimated as "buy" or "sell."
Delta and Cumulative Delta
The script computes a Delta (buy volume minus sell volume) for each bar. A positive Delta suggests more buying during that bar, while a negative Delta suggests more selling.
It also computes Cumulative Delta , summing this Delta over 14 bars (a fixed period). This allows users to observe how short-term buy/sell imbalances accumulate over time.
Visual Bar Coloring (PVSRA Logic)
The script includes logic based on PVSRA (Price Volume Support Resistance Analysis) , which examines average volume over a recent lookback period to determine whether a bar meets certain "climax" or "above-average" thresholds.
Bars are categorized as:
Climax Up or Climax Down: If a bar meets strong volume and range conditions, it is identified as a high-activity bar.
Neutral Colors: Bars that do not meet the threshold are identified as standard volume bars.
Table Summaries
The script includes an optional Spot vs. Perpetual volume table that provides:
Aggregated Spot vs. Perpetual buy/sell volumes
The net difference between buying and selling
The total sum across all included sources
Percentage breakdown of buying vs. selling
A separate multi-timeframe table calculates volume-related metrics for fixed timeframes (15, 60, and 240 minutes), allowing traders to compare their current timeframe with broader trends.
Highlighted Shapes and Diamonds
The script places shape markers above or below bars when certain conditions are met, including:
Dots (circles): Representing a significant increase in net Delta compared to the previous bar.
Diamonds: Markers that appear when volume-based conditions align with predefined thresholds. These vary in size and include an optional "Hardcore Mode" , which applies stricter filtering.
Crossover Triangles: These appear when the internally computed Delta MA (a moving average of Delta) crosses above or below a predefined EMA.
These markers highlight notable changes in volume, Delta, or price action but do not constitute predictive trading signals.
Delta Averages and Overlaid EMAs
The script plots a histogram of the current net Delta (buy minus sell) . Additionally, a Delta Moving Average (Delta MA) is used for tracking trends. The Delta MA is plotted alongside predefined Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) , such as:
A Delta MA calculated using an exponential moving average (EMA) over 21 bars.
A set of predefined EMAs (lengths such as 3, 5, 7, 10, 13, 16, 21, 25, etc.) plotted to visualize momentum changes.
Areas between these EMAs can be filled with translucent shading to highlight momentum shifts.
Comparing the Delta MA to the overlaid EMAs helps track changes in Delta momentum over time.
Interpreting the Elements
When using this script, consider the following:
Volume Aggregation: The script aggregates volume across multiple Spot and Perpetual sources to provide a broad market view.
Delta and Cumulative Delta: The Delta histogram may spike positively or negatively, highlighting areas of potential buying or selling pressure.
Table Data: If enabled, the tables display buy/sell volume splits for Spot and Perpetual markets, along with multi-timeframe comparisons.
EMA Overlays on Delta: The stacked EMAs help visualize short-term vs. longer-term Delta changes.
Shape Markers: Dots, diamonds, and triangles emphasize notable shifts in volume or Delta but do not imply recommendations for action.
Usage Tips
Toggle "Hardcore Mode" to apply stricter filtering to highlight conditions.
Enable or disable the Spot vs. Perpetual Table to see if the breakdown of volume sources is useful.
Use the multi-timeframe table to compare intraday data with broader trends.
If the chart appears too cluttered, toggle off features like PVSRA color tints or some EMAs to focus on specific elements.
Final Thoughts
This script integrates multiple volume-based calculations, range analysis, aggregated volume from predefined tickers, and various moving averages for Delta. Its visual layers—color-coded bars, histograms, shape markers, and tables—offer a rich perspective on market activity.
Users can analyze these elements across any timeframe or market combination they prefer. The script does not provide buy/sell signals or make predictions —it is purely an analytical tool for understanding volume-based market dynamics.
Traders should interpret these visual elements according to their own strategy and trading approach.
Volume Delta & Order Block Suite [QuantAlgo]Upgrade your volume analysis and order flow trading with Volume Delta & Order Block Suite by QuantAlgo, a sophisticated technical indicator that leverages advanced volume delta calculations, along with dynamic order block detection to provide deep insights into market participant behavior. By calculating the distribution of volume between buyers and sellers and tracking pivotal volume zones, the indicator helps traders understand the underlying forces driving price movements. It is particularly valuable for those looking to identify high-probability trading opportunities based on volume imbalances and key price levels where significant activity has occurred.
🟢 Technical Foundation
The Volume Delta & Order Block Suite utilizes sophisticated volume analysis techniques to estimate buying and selling pressure within each price candle. The core volume delta calculation employs a formula that estimates buy volume as: Volume × (Close - Low) ÷ (High - Low) , with sell volume calculated as the remainder of total volume. This approach assumes that when price closes near the high of a candle, most volume represents buying pressure, and when price closes near the low, most volume represents selling pressure.
For order block detection, the indicator implements a multi-step process involving volume pivot identification and price state tracking. It first detects significant volume pivot points using the ta.pivothigh function with a user-defined pivot period. It then tracks the market's order state based on whether the high exceeds the highest high or the low falls below the lowest low. When a volume pivot occurs, the indicator creates order blocks based on price levels at that pivot point. These blocks are continuously monitored for invalidation based on subsequent price action.
🟢 Key Features & Signals
1. Volume Delta Representation on Candles
The Volume Delta visualization on candles shows the buy/sell distribution directly on price bars, creating an immediate visual representation of volume pressure.
When buyers are dominant, candles are colored with the bullish theme color (default: green/teal).
Similarly, when sellers are dominant, candles are colored with the bearish theme color (default: red).
This visualization provides immediate insights into underlying volume pressure without requiring separate indicators, helping traders quickly identify which side of the market is in control.
2. Buy/Sell Pressure Information Table
The Volume Analysis Table provides a comprehensive breakdown of volume metrics across multiple timeframes, helping traders identify shifts in market behavior.
The table is organized into four timeframe columns:
Current Volume
1 Bar Before
1 Day Before
1 Week Before
For each timeframe, the table displays:
Buy volume: The estimated buying volume based on price action
Sell volume: The estimated selling volume based on price action
Total volume: The sum of buy and sell volume
Delta: The difference between buy and sell volume (positive when buyers are dominant, negative when sellers are dominant)
Additionally, the table shows both absolute values and percentage distributions, with trend indicators (Up, Down, or Neutral) at the bottom row of each timeframe column.
This multi-timeframe approach helps traders:
→ Identify volume imbalances between buyers and sellers
→ Track changes in volume delta across different periods
→ Compare current conditions with historical patterns
→ Detect potential reversals by watching for shifts in delta direction
The delta values are particularly useful as they provide a clear indication of market dominance – positive delta (Up) when buyers are dominant, and negative delta (Down) when sellers are dominant.
3. Order Blocks and Their Confluence
Order blocks represent significant price zones where volume pivots occur, potentially indicating areas of significant market participant activity.
The indicator identifies two types of order blocks:
Bullish Order Blocks (support): Highlighted with a green/teal color, these represent potential support areas where price might bounce when revisited
Bearish Order Blocks (resistance): Highlighted with a red color, these represent potential resistance areas where price might reverse when revisited
Each order block is visualized as a colored rectangle with a dashed line showing the average price within the block. The blocks are extended to the right until they are invalidated.
Order blocks can serve as key reference points for trading decisions, for example:
Support/resistance identification
Stop loss placement (beyond the opposite edge of the block)
Potential reversal zones
Target areas for profit-taking
When price approaches an order block, traders should look for confluence with the volume delta on candles and the information in the volume analysis table. Strong setups occur when all three components align – for example, when price approaches a bearish order block with increasing sell volume shown on the candles and in the volume table.
🟢 Practical Usage Tips
→ Volume Analysis and Interpretation: The indicator visualizes the buy/sell volume ratio directly on price candles using color intensity, allowing traders to immediately identify which side (buyers or sellers) is dominant. This information helps in assessing the strength behind price movements and potential continuation or reversal signals.
→ Order Block Trading Strategies: The indicator highlights significant price zones where volume pivots occur, marking these as potential support (bullish order blocks) or resistance (bearish order blocks). Traders can use these levels to identify potential reversal points, stop placement, and profit targets.
→ Multi-timeframe Volume Comparison: Through its comprehensive volume analysis table, the indicator enables traders to compare volume patterns across current, recent, daily, and weekly timeframes. This helps in identifying shifts in market behavior and confirming the strength of ongoing trends.
🟢 Pro Tips
Adjust Pivot Period based on your timeframe:
→ Lower values (3-5) for more frequent order blocks
→ Higher values (7-10) for stronger, less frequent order blocks
Fine-tune Mitigation Method based on your trading style:
→ "Wick" for more conservative invalidation
→ "Close" for more lenient order block survival
Look for confluence between components:
→ Strong volume delta in the expected direction when price touches an order block
→ Corresponding patterns in the volume analysis table
→ Overall market context aligning with the expected direction
Use for multiple trading approaches:
→ Support/resistance trading at order blocks
→ Trend confirmation with volume delta
→ Reversal detection when volume delta changes direction
→ Stop loss placement using order block boundaries
Combine with:
→ Trend analysis using trend-following indicators for trade confirmation
→ Multiple timeframe analysis for strategic context
ZenAlgo - DetectorThis script combines multiple volume data sources, calculates several forms of volume-based metrics, displays a table for Spot vs. Perpetual volumes, and visualizes several technical elements (such as cumulative delta, divergences, fractals, and specialized moving averages). The primary objective is to help analyze volume activity across different exchanges, compare Spot vs. Perpetual markets, and observe how shifting volumes may coincide with price action characteristics. This description aims to clarify each component, explain how the calculations are performed, and show you how to interpret the various chart markings.
Why Combine These Metrics in One Script?
Many publicly available volume-related tools focus only on a single exchange or a single type of volume (like spot or futures). This script merges multiple exchange sources for spot and perpetual data into a unified view. By doing so, users can detect discrepancies or confirm alignment between different markets without juggling multiple indicators. It also processes volume-derived signals (delta, divergences, fractals, etc.) in one place, sparing you from manually combining various standalone scripts. Through this integration, it becomes easier to observe how price and volume interact across different market segments.
Core Concept: Aggregated Volume
The script begins by collecting volumes from multiple exchanges in two categories:
Spot volumes – Typically aggregated under symbols ending with "USDT" or a user-selected currency, and
Perpetual volumes – From perpetual futures contracts (e.g., symbols ending in "USD.P" or "USDT.P").
All these exchange volumes are requested via the built-in request.security() function in a single line for each exchange. The user can enable or disable each exchange in the inputs. The script then calculates an "aggregated volume" for Spot, an aggregated volume for Perpetual, and an overall combined total.
This aggregated volume is used later to break down how much of each bar's volume can be considered "buy" or "sell" based on the bar's candle structure (body vs. wicks).
Volume-Based Calculations: Buy vs. Sell Volume and Delta
For each bar, the script estimates how much of the aggregated volume can be associated with a "buy side" and a "sell side."
Volume Buy is computed if the bar's close is above the open , giving more weight to the candle's body and allocating some portion of volume to the wicks as well.
Volume Sell is similarly computed if the bar's close is below the open .
This results in a Delta value: Delta = (Buy Volume) – (Sell Volume).
Additionally, the script accumulates these values over a user-defined "lookback length" to provide Cumulative Delta . This can help show longer-term directional volume bias.
Table: Spot vs. Perpetual Comparison
There is a toggle ("Show Spot vs Perpetual Table") that displays an on-chart table comparing volumes:
Buy Volume and Sell Volume for each aggregated category (Spot, Perp, and their sum).
Delta (the difference between Buy and Sell).
Percentage breakdowns of buy vs. sell portions.
This table only appears on the most recent bar and helps users quickly assess how Spot and Perpetual volumes compare, plus the overall total.
PVSRA Color Coding
A "PVSRA-style" color approach classifies each bar based on volume and candle range:
Climax Up (lime) or Climax Down (red) occurs if volume is extremely high relative to a simple moving average of volume and range.
Above-Average Up (blue) or Down (fuchsia) occurs if volume is moderately higher than average.
Otherwise, colors fall back to neutral up/down colors.
This allows you to spot potentially high-volume "climax" bars vs. bars with only moderate or typical volume levels.
Fractals and Divergences
The script detects certain fractal points on the aggregated volumes (sum of buy or sell volumes). It looks for a 5-bar pattern (with the current bar in the middle for top or bottom fractals).
When a fractal is confirmed on buy volume, the script checks if new higher price highs coincide with lower buy-volume peaks (or vice versa) to highlight regular or hidden divergences.
Similar logic is applied on the sell-volume side if new lower price lows occur alongside higher sell-volume troughs (or the opposite).
If enabled in the settings, lines and labels may appear on the chart to mark these divergence points.
"Delta Dot" Events
This script draws small circles above or below bars when the total delta changes magnitude relative to the previous bar by certain user-defined multipliers. It segregates "tiny," "small," "large," and "extra" expansions in bullish or bearish delta.
Bullish Dots : Appear above the bar when the new positive delta is multiple times bigger than the previous positive delta.
Bearish Dots : Appear below the bar in a similar fashion for negative delta.
These dots emphasize large or sudden shifts in buy/sell pressure from one bar to the next.
Delta MA and its Direction
A moving average is calculated on the total delta and optionally multiplied by a factor (in the code, by 4) to make it visually prominent. The user can pick from SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA as the smoothing technique.
Delta MA Direction : The script compares the current delta MA to a short SMA of itself to define whether it is rising or falling.
A color is assigned—blue if rising, orange if falling, gray if they're roughly equal.
This helps quickly visualize longer-term momentum in the net delta metric.
Divergences on the Delta MA
After computing the "Delta MA" line, the script detects pivot highs or lows on that line. If the price makes a new high but the Delta MA pivot is lower (and vice versa), it draws lines and small labels indicating potential divergence.
Bearish Divergence : Price makes a higher high, while the Delta MA pivot forms a lower high.
Bullish Divergence : Price makes a lower low, while the Delta MA pivot forms a higher low.
RSI + MFI Computation
The script also calculates a simplified form of RSI+MFI by comparing (close – open) / (high – low) * a multiplier , then smoothing it with a simple average. This is purely for an optional observational measure to see if the price action is leaning bullish or bearish in terms of these combined indicators.
EMA Overlay and Diamond Shapes
There are two standard EMAs (13 and 21). The script checks whether price is above or below these EMAs, in addition to other conditions (like changes in delta, volume, or RSI+MFI direction) to draw diamond shapes at the top or bottom of the chart:
Green Diamonds near the bottom if the conditions line up to suggest that the environment is more favorable for bullish pressure.
Red Diamonds near the top if the environment suggests more bearish pressure.
These diamonds come in two sizes:
Normal – More pronounced, typically plotted if RSI+MFI result is above/below zero.
Small – Plotted if RSI+MFI is on the other side of that threshold.
An optional "Hardcore Mode" adds special tiny diamonds under specific delta color/condition mismatches.
How to Interpret the Chart Elements
Line Plots of Buy and Sell Volumes : A positive line for buy volume, a negative line for sell volume, and a zero-line for reference. This provides at-a-glance perspective on how buy or sell volumes add up per bar.
Histogram "Total Delta" : A color-coded bar that quickly shows whether overall buy vs. sell volume is dominant. The color is governed by the PVSRA logic (e.g., potential climax or above-average conditions).
Volume Table (when enabled): Summarizes volumes in numeric and percentage form for Spot, Perp, and total categories on the last bar.
Delta Dots : Small circles highlighting abrupt changes in delta magnitude. Larger multiples indicate bigger jumps compared to the previous bar.
Fractals & Divergence Lines : Connect pivot points in buy/sell volume or in the Delta MA line with price highs/lows to indicate potential divergences.
Delta MA Plot : Smooth curve (scaled up x4) to reflect longer-term accumulation or distribution in the delta. Colored by whether the MA is above or below a short average of itself.
Diamonds : Appear when certain volume, price, RSI+MFI, and delta conditions converge. Green diamonds near the bottom typically coincide with bullish conditions, red diamonds near the top with bearish conditions.
Practical Usage Notes
Use the Spot vs. Perp breakdown to see if these two market segments differ significantly in their contributions to total volume. This can be informative when a certain type of market (futures vs. spot) might be "driving" price action.
The PVSRA color scheme highlights "climax" or "above-average" volume bars, which can sometimes appear around major reversals or breakouts.
Observing divergences in aggregated buy/sell volume (or in the Delta MA line) can provide additional context on whether certain price moves are backed by strong volume involvement.
The script's fractal divergences rely on short pivot detection. Signals will appear only after enough bars have passed for confirmation, so these are effectively "after-the-fact" notations to illustrate possible volume/price divergences.
The diamonds do not necessarily instruct any buy/sell action; rather, they mark conditions where multiple volume and momentum criteria line up in one direction.
Important Considerations
This script displays aggregated volumes from potentially multiple exchanges. Each exchange or pair might have different time zones, liquidity, or data availability, which can occasionally result in incomplete or zero values.
All references to "buy" or "sell" volume are approximate breakdowns based on candle structure. They are not absolute measures of real-time order flow.
Divergences and fractal points are provided strictly for analytical insight. They can repaint or shift if the fractal conditions were not fully confirmed in real time.
The color-coded lines, histograms, diamonds, and tables are strictly to guide analysis of volume fluctuations and do not claim to predict future price performance.
If you enable "Hardcore Mode," you will see additional diamond markers. This mode is mainly intended as an extra highlight of certain "contradictory" delta conditions.
Summary
The "ZenAlgo - Detector" script brings together a variety of volume-based analyses:
Aggregated volumes from multiple exchanges
A breakdown into Spot vs. Perpetual activity
Delta calculations, fractal divergences, and a specialized Delta Moving Average
Color-coded bars reflecting possible PVSRA concepts
A table to highlight numeric differences and percentages
Additional overlays (e.g., diamonds, RSI+MFI synergy, etc.)
In contrast to many free, single-exchange indicators, this script centralizes multiple exchange volumes in one place, making it easier to observe and compare volume flows across different market types (spot vs. perpetual). Users no longer need to rely on scattered tools or separate overlays to check volume divergences, fractals, or specialized MA calculations—everything is unified here. By carefully monitoring the table, Delta histogram, color-coded bars, divergence lines, and diamond markers, traders can more comprehensively evaluate how volume and price interact. Each plot is designed to showcase different aspects of volume flow—such as whether spot or derivatives markets dominate, if volume is skewed toward buying or selling, and if there are divergences between volume momentum and price movement.
All computations are displayed to help you carry out a more informed market analysis. It is strongly advised to combine these observations with other risk management or analytical methods, rather than relying on any single indicator alone.
