Hammers & star Patterns After a Trend
1. **Candlestick Patterns Detection:**
- **Hammers** and **Inverted Hammers** are specific candlestick patterns that can indicate potential reversals in the market.
- **Hammer**: A candle with a small body and a long lower wick, showing a possible reversal after a downtrend.
- **Inverted Hammer**: A candle with a small body and a long upper wick, indicating a possible reversal after an uptrend.
2. **Volume Consideration:**
- The script checks if these patterns occur with **high trading volume**. If the volume is significantly higher than the average volume over a certain period, the pattern is highlighted.
3. **Trend Detection:**
- The script looks for a significant trend before the pattern appears:
- **Downtrend**: A significant downward movement in price is required before a Hammer is considered.
- **Uptrend**: A significant upward movement is required before an Inverted Hammer is considered.
4. **Additional Patterns:**
- **Morning Star** and **Evening Star** patterns are also detected:
- **Morning Star**: A three-candle pattern where the first candle is a large bearish candle, followed by a small-bodied candle, and then a large bullish candle, indicating a potential reversal from downtrend to uptrend.
- **Evening Star**: The opposite pattern, signaling a potential reversal from uptrend to downtrend.
5. **Visual Indicators:**
- The script **plots arrows** and **labels** on the chart to show where these patterns occur:
- **Hammers** and **Inverted Hammers** are marked with triangle arrows.
- **Morning Stars** and **Evening Stars** are marked with labels.
In summary, this script helps traders identify key candlestick patterns that may signal potential reversals in price trends, with special emphasis on patterns that occur with high volume and after significant price movements.
Volume Insignts AnalyzerDescription:
The Volume Insight Analyzer is an advanced Pine Script designed for traders who want a comprehensive view of volume dynamics on their charts. This script combines multiple volume-based indicators to help identify key trading opportunities, including significant volume days, volume dry-ups, and pocket pivots.
Key Features:
VDU (Volume Dry-Up) Detection: Automatically identifies and marks days when the volume is significantly below its moving average, helping to spot potential breakout or breakdown points. Customizable volume thresholds allow for tailored analysis based on your trading strategy. The Volume Dry-Up label appears when the volume is substantially below its average level and the price is near a key moving average. This condition indicates a period of equilibrium between supply and demand, suggesting a potential low-risk entry point for traders.
Pocket Pivot Analysis using 5 and 10 Length Pocket Pivots: Highlights days with exceptionally high volume compared to recent history, indicating potential pocket pivots. Visual markers on the chart and volume bars color-coded for 5 and 10-day lengths. Pocket pivot points are identified when the volume on a given day exceeds the maximum volume observed over the past several days. Specifically, a 5-day pocket pivot point is marked when today's volume surpasses the highest selling volume of the last 5 days. A cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points within a base is a strong indicator of stock strength. Similarly, a 10-day pocket pivot point following a Volume Dry-Up (VDU) suggests a potential entry opportunity. Moreover, a pre-existing cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points before a 10-day pocket pivot point provides greater conviction in the trade.
Volume Moving Averages: Set different lengths for primary and secondary moving averages to track volume trends over daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes. Options to display moving average lines on the volume chart.
Volume Visualization:
a. Major and Minor Volume Bars: Option to display bars that are either above or below average volume levels. Adjustable settings to show or hide these bars based on user preference.
b. Volume Bar Coloring: Volume bars are color-coded based on significant volume thresholds, including green for bullish signals, red for bearish signals, and orange for volume dry-ups.
Volume Metrics Table: A customizable table that displays real-time volume metrics including Relative Volume (RVOL), Turnover, and the number of high volume days. The table can be oriented horizontally or vertically and styled according to your theme preferences.
Visual Indicators:
a) Volume Dry-Up (VDU) Labels: Clearly marked VDU events with textual annotations on the chart.
b) Bullish and Bearish Arrows: Arrows indicating potential bullish or bearish closes based on volume analysis, enhancing decision-making.
Customization Options:
a) Dark and Light Theme Support: Toggle between dark and light themes to match your chart settings.

Get Notified: The cool thing? It'll alert you when these big volume candles happen. You won't miss the important moments.
Use this to keep track of when things are really moving in the market, without having to watch your screen all the time.
Relative Volume Candles [QuantVue]In the words of Dan Zanger, "Trying to trade without using volume is like trying to drive a few hundred miles without putting gas in your tank. Trying to trade without chart patterns is like leaving without having an idea how to get there!"
Volume tends to show up at the beginning and the end of trends. As a general rule, when a stock goes up on low volume, it's seen as negative because it means buyers aren't committed. When a stock goes down on low volume, it means that not many people are trying to sell it, which is positive.
The Relative Volume Candles indicator is based on the Zanger Volume Ratio and designed to help identify key volume patterns effortlessly, with color coded candles and wicks.
The indicator is designed to be used on charts less than 1 Day and calculates the average volume for the user selected lookback period at the given time of day. From there a ratio of the current volume vs the average volume is used to determine the candle’s colors.
The candles wicks are color coded based on whether or not the volume ratio is rising or falling.
So when is it most important to have volume? When prices break out of a consolidation pattern like a bull flag or cup and handle pattern, volume plays a role. When a stock moves out of a range, volume shows how committed buyers are to that move.
Note in order to see this indicator you will need to change the visual order. This is done by selecting the the 3 dots next to the indicator name, scrolling down to visual order and selecting bring to front.

Volume Spike Analysis [Trendoscope]The Volume Spike Analysis is designed to detect volume spikes in a trading instrument's data. Rather than relying on the traditional method of comparing volume to its moving average, this indicator employs a distinctive approach to ensure accuracy.
Methodology
Historical Volume Comparison: The indicator first assesses the current bar's volume, say 100k, and looks back historically to determine the last instance when the volume was equal to or exceeded this level.
High Volume Bar Gap Calculation: The intervals or gaps between high volume bars are recorded. These gaps help in determining how common or rare a particular volume spike is.
Spike Magnitude Determination: Here, the extent of the volume spike is gauged in relation to either the median, lowest, or average volume of the intervening bars. The reference metric (median, lowest, or average) can be chosen by the user through the "Volume Spike Reference" input parameter.
Spike Percentile Analysis: The calculated spike magnitude (as a percentage of the reference volume) is cataloged. This collection aids in understanding the relative intensity of the current volume spike when compared to previous spikes.
Threshold Comparisons: The indicator then compares the calculated "High Volume Distance Percentile" to the "Last High Volume Distance Percentile" and the "Volume Spike Percentile" to the "Volume Spike Threshold". If these values surpass the preset thresholds, the current bar is flagged as a high volume or volume spike bar.
Visual Components
Bar Highlighting : High volume or volume spike bars are accentuated with bright colors for easy identification. All other bars have increased transparency to reduce visual clutter.
Distance from the High Volume Bar: Indication of the number of bars since the last high volume occurrence and its respective percentile.
Comparative Factors: A factor representing the magnitude by which the current volume surpasses the lowest, median, and average volumes.
Lowest, Median and Average Volumes: The lowest and median volumes are indicated by tooltips on lines marking the respective bars. The average volume is depicted as a dotted horizontal line, with a triangle marker tooltip revealing its value.
This indicator offers a nuanced analysis of volume spikes, aiding traders in making more informed decisions.

Strategy - Relative Volume GainersStrategy - Relative Volume Gainers
Overview:
This trading strategy, called "Relative Volume Gainers," is designed for Long Entry opportunities in the stock market. The strategy aims to identify potential trading candidates based on specific technical conditions, including volume, price movements, and indicator alignments.
Strategy Rules:
The strategy is focused solely on Long Entry positions.
The volume for the current trading day must be greater than or equal to the volume of the previous day.
The percentage change in price must be greater than or equal to 2.5%.
The Last Traded Price (LTP) must be greater than or equal to the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) 200.
The Relative Volume for the current trading day (calculated over the last 30 days) must be greater than or equal to the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of Relative Volume over the same 30 days.
The current candle on the chart should be Green or Bullish, indicating positive price movement.
The price difference between bid and ask prices should be kept to a minimum.
It's recommended to also analyze market depth for better insights.
Strategy Requirements:
Add the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) 200 to your trading chart.
This strategy can be applied on charts of any timeframe.
For intraday trading, particularly for early entry, consider using a 1-minute timeframe.
It is advisable to create a screener to identify potential trades in real-time market conditions.
Risk Warning:
Stocks that meet the strategy criteria might exhibit high volatility and a high beta, making them inherently risky to trade. Exercise caution and adhere to predetermined risk management strategies.
Determine your trading quantity based on your entry price and stop loss in order to manage risk effectively.
Quantity Calculation Formula:
Quantity calculation is crucial to manage risk and position sizing. The following formulas can be used based on your trading scenario:
Quantity with Leverage:
Quantity = (((Using Capital / 100) * Risk Percent) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss)) * Leverage
Eg: Quantity = (((10000 / 100) * 0.2) / (405.5 - 398.5)) * 5
Quantity = 14
Risk = Rs.100 (Rs.100 is 1% of Rs.10000. So the risk is 1%, means we lose only Rs.100 when the SL is hit. If SL is increased the Quantity will get reduced to maintain a fixed risk of Rs.100)
Quantity without Leverage:
Quantity = (((Using Capital / 100) * Risk Percent) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss))
Note:
Always stay informed about market conditions and be prepared for potential rapid price movements when trading stocks that meet the strategy criteria. Strictly adhere to your predefined risk management strategy to safeguard your capital.
High Volume Candles by Time PeriodDescription:
The High Volume Candles indicator (HVC) is a technical analysis tool designed to identify candles with high trading volume. It allows traders to quickly spot periods of significant market activity based on volume.
How it Works:
The HVC indicator analyzes the volume of each candle in relation to the highest volume observed over a specified lookback period. The indicator compares the current volume with the highest volume within the defined lookback period and identifies candles that have volume equal to or greater than this threshold. It then distinguishes between bullish and bearish candles and assigns custom colors to highlight these high volume occurrences.
Usage:
To effectively utilize the High Volume Candles indicator, follow these steps:
1. Apply the HVC indicator to your chart by adding it from the available indicators.
2. Customize the lookback period according to your trading preferences. This parameter determines the number of previous candles to consider when calculating the highest volume.
3. Observe the candles on the chart:
- Bullish candles (blue by default) indicate periods of high volume when the closing price is higher than the opening price.
- Bearish candles (yellow by default) indicate periods of high volume when the closing price is lower than the opening price.
4. Pay attention to the color-coded volume indications within the candles, which highlight periods of high trading activity.
5. Analyze the volume patterns in conjunction with price action to identify potential trading opportunities. High volume candles often indicate increased market participation and can suggest significant price moves or reversals.
6. Combine the analysis of high volume candles with other technical analysis tools, such as trend lines, support and resistance levels, or indicators, to confirm potential trade setups.
7. Implement appropriate risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders and position sizing, to manage your trades effectively and protect your capital.
RSIOMA with Volume Index ConfirmationThis indicator is called "RSIOMA with Volume Index Confirmation". It is a technical analysis tool that plots buy and sell signals on a chart based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Negative Volume Index (NVI) and Positive Volume Index (PVI) indicators.
The indicator has the following input parameters:
- RSI Length: determines the number of periods used to calculate the RSI. Default value is 14.
- Overbought Level: determines the RSI level at which a security is considered overbought. Default value is 70.
- Oversold Level: determines the RSI level at which a security is considered oversold. Default value is 30.
- NVI Length: determines the number of periods used to calculate the Negative Volume Index. Default value is 255.
- PVI Length: determines the number of periods used to calculate the Positive Volume Index. Default value is 255.
The indicator calculates the RSI using the RSI Length input parameter and the close price of the security. It also calculates the NVI and PVI by looping through the volume data and the close price data of the security over the specified periods.
The indicator then uses the RSI, NVI, and PVI to determine buy and sell signals. A bearish divergence signal is generated when the RSI from one period ago is greater than the Overbought Level, the current RSI is less than the Overbought Level, and the close price from one period ago is greater than the current close price. A bullish divergence signal is generated when the RSI from one period ago is less than the Oversold Level, the current RSI is greater than the Oversold Level, and the close price from one period ago is less than the current close price. A sell signal is generated when a bearish divergence signal occurs and the current NVI is less than the previous NVI value. A buy signal is generated when a bullish divergence signal occurs and the current PVI is greater than the previous PVI value.
The indicator plots the buy and sell signals on the chart as green and red triangles, respectively. The "overlay=true" parameter in the indicator function indicates that the signals are plotted on top of the security's price chart.
High/Low VolumeIn this indicator, I show you a better way to define high/low values of volume (or any other indicator).
Quite often, I get requests from my clients that an indicator level should be “high” or that it should be above a certain absolute level.
The first request is hard to interpret mathematically, but traders can easily spot it on the chart. The second one is not flexible, and it might not make sense in another market regime.
To solve that, you can compute dynamic high/low levels that represent unexpected extreme values that are adaptable to recent conditions.
There are two pretty simple methods I’m using quite often in my scripts percentiles and sigma (standard deviations).
Percentile looks back at X bars and computes the value under which a certain % of data points are located. So, for example, if we’re computing 90%tile and we’re looking at 100 bars, we’ll get a value under which we have values of precisely 90 bars for this indicator. It’s a good idea to use something like 5%tile for low level and 95%tile for high level.
Sigma(σ) is related to standard deviation. If we assume that our data is normally distributed, then 68% of data points should be in the range of mean +-1σ, 95% → mean +-2σ. So we can assume that something above 2σ is a pretty rare and extreme event.
In this script, I give you an example of how to compute both on volume, but you can easily change this to another indicator.
The issue with volume is that it’s not normally distributed, and your low level will be quite often too low to detect any low levels. Ideally, we have to use a more sophisticated formula that fits volume distribution better.
In this indicator, you can set the following parameters:
Choose type: Percentile or Sigma
Lookback Period
High/Low Percentiles
Sigmas #
You can also receive alerts for high/low volume events.
Disclaimer
Please remember that past performance may not indicate future results.
Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, the strategy may no longer perform as well as in historical backtesting.
This post and the script don’t provide any financial advice.
AutoLevelsAuto Levels is a Work in progress.
It is based on the previous days ATR and the current days opening tick.
It takes that info and uses Fibonacci to automatically draw key levels for the day.
I have added the BULL BAR ( Green bar ) and Bear Bar ( Red Bar ) to signal as a Go Long / Go Short line in the sand.
The Tan bars are also proven key "Take Profit" levels.
These are, on average, major points of reversals, dip buys or consolidation.
I use this on the 5min timeframe and a close above or below a key level is my signal and direction. Auto Levels have proven to be a great indicator of major support and resistance.
Outliers Detector with N-Sigma Confidence Intervals (TG fork)Display outliers in either value change, volume or volume change that significantly deviate from the past.
This uses the standard deviation calculation and the n-sigmas statistical rule of significance, with 2-sigma (a value of 2) signifying that the observed value is stronger than 95% of past values, and 3-sigma 98.5% of past values, and so on for higher sigma values.
Outliers in price action or in volume can indicate a strong support for the move, and hence potentially more moves in the same direction in the future. Inversely, an insignificant move is less likely to be supported. And of course the stronger, the more support.
This indicator also doubles as a standard volume indicator if volume is selected as the source, but with the option of highlighting outliers.
Bars below significance can be uncolored (gray) to unclutter the visuals.
Differently to almost all other similar indicators, the background highlighting is dynamical, so that all values will be highlighted differently, not just 2-sigma or 3-sigma, but also 4-sigma, 5-sigma, etc, with a different value of transparency.
The dynamical transparency value can be calculated in two ways: either statically proportionally to the n-sigma but capped at 10-sigma, or either as a ratio relative to the highest observed sigma value over the defined lookback period (default: 300).
If you like this indicator, which is an extension of previously published indicators, please give some love to the original authors:
* tvjvzl :
* vnhilton :
This extension, authored by Tartigradia, extends tvjvzl's indi, implements vnhilton's idea of highlighting the background, and go further by adding dynamical background highlighting for any value of sigma, add support for volume and volume change (VolumeDiff) as inputs, add option to uncolor insignificant bars, allow plotting in both directions and more.
Volume composition / quantifytools— Overview
While net volume is useful information, it can be a blunt data point. Volume composition breaks down the content of volume, allowing a more detailed look inside each volume node. Volume composition consists of the following information:
Total volume (buy and sell). By default gray node.
Dominating volume (buy or sell). By default dark green/dark red node.
Dominating active volume (buy or sell). By default light green/light red node.
Dominating volume as percentage of total volume.
Dominating active volume as percentage of total active volume.
Buy and sell volume is defined by volume associated with lower timeframe up/down moves. This classification is further broken down to passive/active, standing for decreasing/increasing volume, e.g. a move up with volume higher than previous bar volume = active buy volume, a move up with volume lower than previous bar volume = passive buy volume.
Volume data is fetched from a lower timeframe that is automatically adjusted to fit the timeframe you're using. By default, the following settings are applied:
Charts <= 30 min: 1 minute timeframe
Charts > 30 min & <= 3 hours : 5 minute timeframe
Charts > 3 hours & <= 8 hours : 15 minute timeframe
Charts > 8 hours & <= 1D: 1 hour timeframe
Charts > 1D & <= 3D : 2 hour timeframe
Charts > 3D: 4 hour timeframe
Timeframe settings can be changed via input menu. The lower the timeframe, the more precision you get but with the cost of less historical data and slower loading time. Users can also choose which source to use for determining buy/sell volume, e.g. using close as source, a close that is higher than previous close would be considered as buy volume. This could be replaced with OHLC4 for example, resulting in a volume direction based on OHLC average.
Volume composition of current chart can also be replaced with any other chart volume composition:
— Visuals
Breakdown of visual elements:
1. Symbol and timeframe used for volume composition calculations. By default the chart that is viewed and automatically selected lower timeframe.
2. Dominating volume threshold exceeded. Can be defined via input menu, 70% of total volume by default.
3. Dominating volume as percentage of total volume. Plotted below volume nodes, without % symbol.
4. Dominating active volume, + or - symbol, standing for buy and sell. Plotted below dominating volume percentage. When dominating volume and dominating active volume sides are in a disagreement (e.g. dominating volume is on buy side while dominating active volume is on sell side) this symbol will appear inside brackets, (+) or (-).
5. Dominating active volume as percentage of total active volume. Plotted below +/- symbol.
6. Dominating active volume threshold exceeded. Can be defined via input menu, 70% by default.
Dominating volume & active volume percentages can be rounded to single numbers to avoid clutter caused by overlapping values. The percentage values will be rounded to closest single number value, e.g. dominating volume percentage at 54% = 5, dominating volume percentage at 55% = 6.
Volume anomalies can be highlighted on the chart with a color for studying the events and their past implications in greater detail. Available anomalies for highlights are the following:
Buy volume threshold exceeded
Sell volume threshold exceeded
Active buy volume threshold exceeded
Active sell volume threshold exceeded
Volume & active volume divergence
— Practical guide
Volume is arguably one of the most important data points as it directly relates to liquidity. High volume can be an indication of strength (price likely to continue moving) or absorption (price likely to halt/turn). Same applies to active volume, but with an element of aggression. High active volume serves as an indication of exuberance or otherwise forceful transacting, like stop losses triggering. With these principles in mind, the composition of volume allows distinguishing potentially important events.
Example #1 : Identifying areas of trapped market participants
Often when volume spikes distinctively, we can make the case that price has found sufficient liquidity to halt/turn. Since we know which side was absorbed, in what quantity and type (passive/active), we can identify areas of trapped market participants. In such scenarios, the higher the dominant active volume and volume spike itself, the better.
Example #2 : Identifying a healthy trend
A healthy trend is one that has an active and consistent bid driving it. When this is the case, it can be seen in consistently supportive active volume.
Example #3 : Identifying inflection points
When dominant side of volume and dominant side of active volume diverge, something is up. A divergence often marks an area of indecision, hinting an imminent move one way or the other.
Combined Moving Averages + Squeeze & Volume Spike SignalsThis is a set of 4 combined moving averages. Each moving average is a combination of an EMA, SMA, HMA, RMA, WMA and VWMA with the same length as set in your input settings. All 6 of them are added together and then divided by 6 for an average of all of them. This is based on the theory that most traders use their own preference of moving averages, so combining them all should give us a better idea of where price should actually react since we are using the average of what most traders are using on their charts. It also smooths the moving averages out as well so you get a much easier to read moving average than any of them on their own which should help you hold positions longer and time your entries better.
The default lengths used for this indicator are as follows: 10, 50, 100 and 500. These lengths can be updated in the settings. The 10 and 500 will change colors when the individual moving average is less than or greater than its previous value. Price above or below the moving average does not affect the colors. The 50 and 100 are colored based on whether the 50 is greater/less than the 100.
The two middle length moving averages by default are the 50 and 100. This has been turned into a cloud because it is the area where price typically bounces, since tons of traders use the 50 and 100 moving averages. This should be your long/short zone when price is trending.
Each moving average can be set to use a different source such as close, open, high, low, ohlc4, etc. You can also adjust the length of each moving average. Default settings work well, but feel free to customize them to your liking. You can also change the colors of the lines in the settings.
Beware that changing the lengths of MA #2 and MA #3 will change the signals, squeezes and the cloud.
VOLUME SPIKES
The cloud will change to a brighter color when a volume spike is detected. When a major volume spike is detected, it will turn very bright colored green/red according to the direction of the cloud. This notifies you of volume spikes so you have a better idea of how strong the trend is. If the cloud is a dark green/red then that means that volume is less than or equal to the recent median volume.
SIGNALS
There are also signals that will be given when the current candle is in the cloud, the candle is going in the same direction as the cloud, the MA #2 and MA #3 is going in the same direction and a volume spike is detected. These help you identify good entries when markets are trending. Be cautious of these signals when the trend is sideways and not clearly moving in one direction. The signals can be turned on or off in the settings.
SQUEEZE
Many times when moving averages squeeze together, a big move happens shortly after. Because of this I added a yellow background color when a squeeze is detected. It looks at the median value difference of the MA #2 and MA #3 and if the current value difference is less than the median multiplied by the multiplier in the settings then it will change the background color to notify you. The default value of the multiplier is .6, meaning the squeeze signal will only show if the current value difference of the cloud is less than .6 of the median difference. The multiplier can be adjusted in the settings to suit your preferences. Lower values will only show tighter squeezes.
MARKETS
This indicator can be used on all markets including stocks, crypto, futures and forex.
TIMEFRAMES
This indicator can be used on all timeframes.
PAIRINGS
We recommend pairing this combined moving average with Trend Friend Swing Trade And Scalp Signals for extra confluence. Look for price to bounce in the cloud with good volume and a confirming signal from Trend Friend for highly probable moves.
Volume SpikesShows volume spikes over a certain threshold, using a symbol's volume moving average as the baseline. Offers a few different filters regarding candle shapes and types, in an attempt to catch quick moves on extremely low timeframes (sub-1m).
Ultimately I would like to integrate this logic into an indicator that contains automated stop raid/inducement detection.
Volume ROC and 2nd Derivative by ianhThe purpose of this code is to graph a volume simple moving average (sma) and it's first and second derivatives to provide traders with additional information that might determine if volume is converging or diverging with price. The yellow line represents the volume sma, the red line represents the first derivative or the rate of change of the volume and the green line represents the second derivative or acceleration of volume. For long term trading, if the yellow line is "trending" upwards with higher highs and higher lows it means that volume is supporting the over all long term price trend. If the volume is decreasing over the long term then it is not supporting the current price trend. The first and second derivatives may help short term weekly traders confirm price movements. There are several different conditions to look for:
First (Red) ++ Second (Green) --, Trading volume at the current price has "peaked" and the price may reverse soon.
First (Red) -- Second (Green) ++, Trading volume at the current price has "troughed" and the price may reverse soon.
First (Red) + Second (Green) +, Trading volume is not only increasing but it's accelerating which might confirm a large price movement.
First (Red) - Second (Green) -, Trading volume is not only decreasing but it's decelerating which might indicate little to no price movement.
High volume zone█ OVERVIEW
Show high volume zone in a lower timeframe.
█ CONCEPTS
1- Choose an amount of volume (1 000 by default)
2- Choose a timeframe (1 minute by default)
3- It highlight every zone where volume was > 1000 in less than one minute
█ OTHER SECTIONS
Limitation:
- Unfortunately, I didn't find a way to make it in a lower timeframe than 1 minute with Pinescript
- It is truncate by minute so a high volume between two lower tf candles may not be count
If you have a solution for these, glad to hear it.
PulseVolume can help confirm signals we might discover using other methods of technical analysis .
This indicator's logic spots above-average turnover and then tests against the price change. Pulse highlights sessions with heavy volume and directional moves. This can help take out the noise and help confirm the trend.
Volume Spikes & Growing Volume Signals With Alerts & ScannerVOLUME SPIKES & GROWING VOLUME SIGNALS WITH ALERTS & SCANNER
This indicator shows arrows when there is a volume spike. It also paints the background when volume is growing. There is also a volume scanner for 8 tickers that will change color in real time when your other favorite tickers see volume growth and spikes.
You can customize the length of DMI, the number of bars to calculate the current volume average from, the number of bars back to get the overall volume average from, the multiple that needs to be hit to give a signal, the position of the scanner table and which tickers are used in the scanner. There are detailed directions as tooltips in the indicator settings you can read to understand exactly what each input does.
All features are customizable as well as which tickers the screener uses.
***HOW TO USE***
Watch for volume to pick up before placing trades as this will help you stay out of the markets when price is choppy. Volume usually brings volatility so watch for the volume signals to show up on the chart. Typically when price has made a big move one direction or is consolidating and you see the volume indicator start giving signals, the market is ready to reverse or continue its current trend but move faster in that direction.
Volume Spikes
When there is a volume spike that is larger than the average of volume over the last 100+ bars(depending on your settings) multiplied by the volume amount multiplier(in your settings) then an arrow will show up on the chart. This arrow will be green if DMI is bullish and red if DMI is bearish.
Volume Growth
A Background color will appear when the average volume over the last 5 bars(depending on your settings) is higher than the average volume over the last 100+ bars(depending on your settings) and is greater than your multiple. It will also paint the background when the volume moving average has increased over the last 3 bars consecutively. The background colors will be red or green depending on buy & sell pressure(DMI). If the background color appears, then you know volume is growing and volatility is near.
Volume Scanner
The scanner can be customized to have all of your favorite tickers by changing the tickers used in the indicator settings at the bottom. When no volume growth or spikes are detected, the ticker will show as light blue. When volume spikes or growth is detected, the ticker will turn orange to notify you.
Alerts
You can set up alerts as well when there is volume growth, bullish volume spikes and bearish volume spikes on any chart or timeframe.
Indicator Settings
Settings will need to be adjusted across different tickers as some have large swings in volume and some stay pretty even, so make sure to set up different chart layouts with settings that work for each ticker and save them individually so you don’t have to reset these values every time you switch charts.
***MARKETS***
This indicator can be used as a signal on all markets, including stocks, crypto, futures and forex as long as Tradingview has volume and DMI data for that ticker.
