Volumepressure — Indicators and Strategies

Volume Trend Meter LTF A new take to an already popular indicator of mine, now with lower time frame support for a volume called Volume Trend Meter LTF (VTML). The VTM LTF indicator measures the volume pressure at a specific part of the candle (Start, Middle, or the end of the candle) and displays it as a histogram. This indicator sums up all green candle volumes and red candle volumes over the selected part of the candle (Select in settings - start end or middle) and plots their values by subtracting increasing volume and decreasing volume. Use this indicator to identify increasing volume with the green candles (close bigger than open) and increasing volume of the red candles (close is smaller than open). Can also work on daily charts and higher. ======= Calculation ========== For Green Column: The total Volume of green candles is higher than the total red candle volume. For Red Column: The total Volume of red candles is higher than the total green candle volume. ======= Volume Trend Meter LTF Colors ======= Green: Increasing buying pressure. Red: Increasing selling pressure. My original VTM (not the lower time frame version): Like if you like and Follow me for upcoming indicators/strategies: www.tradingview.com

Volume Pace & Pressure Table Have you ever wanted to know if a particular tickers volume is above or below average while still in the trading day? This indicator displays an easy-to-read table that informs the user exactly what is occurring in intraday volume. And a whole lot more! Description This indicator displays a variable table with either two or three columns and always three rows. It packs everything a user needs to know about volume in one small table. The table shows: Current trading days volume Average daily volume Volume Pace Volume Pressure (Buying & Selling) Volume Pace Volume Pace is a mathematical calculation invented by the author, Infinity_Trading . The problem was to figure out a way to know if the current days volume was below average or above average while still in the trading day. Calculations like Percent Daily Volume don’t work during the intraday trading hours. For example, say SPY has a 20-day volume average of 100 million shares. If in the first hour SPY has only traded 10 million shares then dividing the current volume into the average daily volume doesn’t tell the user anything when there is still 5.5 hours of trading left in the trading day. There had to be a better way! The solution was to chop up the trading day into evenly divisible time periods (i.e. <= 30 minutes). The Volume Pace algorithm takes the average daily volume and chops it up into small time periods based upon the charts current timeframe. This is the average volume per smaller time period. Then use the current days volume and the number of time periods that have occurred in the trading day so far (at the current moment in time i.e. the current candlestick) to form a calculation that returns the volume above or below the average volume up to that point in time. Volume Pace Equations Intraday Vol. Pace = Today’s Current Vol. - ( ( Average Daily Vol. / Time periods in trading day ) * Time periods that have occurred so far in trading day ) Postday Vol. Pace = Today’s Trading Vol. - Average Daily Vol. ^ Vol. = Volume (because TradingViews pine tags are dumb) Volume Pace Definitions Volume Pace is the difference in cumulative volume between todays current volume and the average daily volume up to same time of the day Volume Pace Usage If the Volume Pace is a positive number then it means that up to the current trading time the volume is that amount greater than the average daily volume over that same intraday time span. If the Volume Pace is a negative number then it means that up to the current trading time the volume is that amount smaller than the average daily volume over that same intraday time span. If the Volume Pace is positive during the intraday then the volume is on track to be an above average volume trading day. If the Volume Pace is negative during the intraday then the volume is on track to be a below average volume trading day. The Percent Volume Pace is the percent increase or decrease of the current volume compared to the average volume up to the same time of day. Or the Percent Volume Pace is the Volume Pace expressed as a percentage. After the trading day is complete the Volume Pace will be the difference between the Daily Volume and the Average Daily Volume. And the same thing applies to the Percent Volume Pace. Volume Pressure The author, Infinity_Trading, did not invent the calculations for Volume Pressure but the definitions and explanations of Volume Pressure are their own creations. In specific terms, Volume Pressure is a mathematical calculation that uses the direction and distances of individual candlesticks bodies and wicks to assign a numerical value to volume. buyingPressure = vol * (close - low) / (high - low) sellingPressure = vol * (high - close) / (high - low) ^ vol = Volume (because TradingViews pine tags are dumb) The author wants to make clear that volume “pressure” isn’t a real thing. Trades in any market require a buyer and a seller. So there is always an equal number of buyers and sellers. Thus, the idea that there are more buyers or more sellers isn’t rooted in reality. BUT the author believes that the calculation and understanding of “volume pressure” takes a very complex subject (price moment in a market) and condenses into something that intuitively makes sense to humans (pressure) and places it onto something that is already on everyone’s charts (volume bars). The calculation for Buying Pressure is really calculating the upward distance between the low and the close of the candle. While Selling Pressure is measuring the downward distance from the high to the close. And both are using volume bars to express these measurements. So if an individual candle goes down then the red Selling Pressure will be more on the stacked bar chart than the green Buying Pressure. And vice versa for candles that went up. If a Volume Pressure bar is completely one color then it means, for a downward candle, the low and close were equivalent, and for an upward candle, the high and the close were the same. Lastly, the Buying & Selling Pressure will always add up to 100%. Inputs and Style In the Input section the user can set the number of days to use for all of the average calculations. All aspects of the table can be controlled. The background color, text color, border widths, and border colors. Also, the table can be moved to 9 unique locations around the chart for complete user control. Also, the user can use their cursor to hover over each cell in the table to reveal a tooltip definition of the calculation in the cell. Special Notes The volume table won’t display when the chart timeframe is weekly or monthly because the logic uses “daily” volume. The Volume Pace column in the table disappears when the timeframe is greater than 30 minutes. Because for Volume Pace to work the time periods must be equally divisible into 6.5 hours (the duration of trading day).

Volume Pressure Bars Description This indicator transforms the normal volume bars into buying and selling segments. This allows the user to easily see how much buying and selling pressure is occurring on any given timeframe. The buying and selling pressure values are calculated using the following equations: buyingPressure = volume * (close - low) / (high - low) sellingPressure = volume * (high - close) / (high - low) Moving Average Line Also included in this indicator is the optional moving average line. This allows the user to easily see if volume is above or below the average line. All aspects of the moving average line can be adjusted. The line can be toggled on & off, the length of the moving average can be adjusted, the mathematical smoothing function can be chosen, and the color & style of the line can be configured. Scaling If the volume pressure bars are displayed on the same “pane” as the price candles, then the volume bars can be scaled up or down. In the Input settings check the “Scale Bars” checkbox. Then increase the “Scaling Factor” number to make all of the volume bars smaller (to allow more room on your chart) or decrease the number to make the volume bars bigger. IMPORTANT NOTE #1: scaling only works when the volume pressure bars are in the same pane as the price candles. If the volume pressures bars are in their own pane, then the “Scale Bars” toggle has no effect. IMPORTANT NOTE #2: if the volume pressure bars are in the same pane as the price candles then there will be a sizable gap between the bottom of the volume bars and the time axis on the TradingView chart. This IS NOT a bug in this indicators code. The gap IS a bug in the TradingView platform that affects all volume indicators besides the default volume indicator that comes with each blank chart. To remove the gap then move the “_Vol Bars” indicator to its own pane above or below the main pain. Volume Numbers In Pine Script there is not a true stacked bar chart plot. What the author has to use are multiple bar charts that are in front and behind each other. This gives the impression that the bars are truly stacked because the selling pressure is always smaller than the total volume on any given bar. There is no issue to visually look at the bars and see their heights but if the user used their cursor to hover on a bar to get the actual volume pressure values it leads to issues. To address this problem the author has created a third invisible bar called “Buy Vol Label” that is the buy pressure volume value. Thus when the user hovers the cursor over a bar the first value (from left to right) is the total volume for the bar, the second value is the sell pressure, the third value is the buy pressure, and the fourth value (if toggled on) is the moving average value.

Volume Trend Meter Sweet little indicator which measures volume pressure over a specific period of time. i call it Volume Trend Meter, or just VTM, The indicator sums up all green candles volume and red candles volumes over a specific period of bars (you set in settings) and plots their values. Use this indicator to identify increasing volume with the green candles (close higher than open) and increasing volume of the red candles (close is lower than open). ======= Calculation ========== For Green Column: Total volume of green candles is higher than total red candles volume. For Red Column: Total volume of red candles is higher than total green candles volume. ======= Volume Trend Meter Colors ======= Green: Increasing buying pressure. Red: Increasing selling pressure.

Volume RSI This is a script about the RSI for the Volume Trend, with this indicator we can help us to watch the force of a volume trend (not price). Some times this can help us to clarify the change of the direction. This is a continuation of the: Volume Spread Graph Volume CCI Volume Trend Oscillator ideas, comments and suggestions (or corrections).They are always welcome

Volume CCI Here simply calculate the CCI of the volume, this will use to measure the strength of the trend of the volume Background: I think the volume as the price could be represented by candles or other graphic to use indicators and strengthen their analysis, due to lack of registration of this it is first necessary to calculate a volume graph, if the candle traditionally negative price brand then the total volume is taken as negative for the period. An example of this is in the On Balance Volume indicator, the problem is that there is no way to analyze the volume using other methods. An approximate volume of the spread could be the use of the price spread to make a synthetic behavior As traditionally is observed if Open> Close then the candle and the volume will be negative and vice versa; the next step, is estimate the amounts of the candle necessary to calculate the ratio to use for the volume and thus idealize their spread within the candle: VLOW = Volume x Low vHigh = x High Volume VOpen = vClose vClose = Volume x Close This graph can show a stable synthetic form of fluctuations in the volume trend affected by price. ideas, comments and suggestions (or corrections).They are always welcome

Custom Weighting Coefficient for Exponential Moving Average (nEMA) adaptation work by @XeL_Arjona with contribution help from @RicardoSantos at TradingView @pinescript chat room. Morphic Numbers (PHI & Plastic) Pine Script adaptation from it's algebraic generation formulas by @XeL_Arjona Fractal Deviation Bands idea by @XeL_Arjona CHANGE LOG: ACCUMULATION / DISTRIBUTION CLOUD: I decided to change it's name from the Buy to Sell Pressure. The code is essentially the same as older versions and they are the center core (VORTEX?) of all derived New stuff which are: MORPHIC NUMBERS: The "Golden Ratio" expressed by the result of the constant "PHI" and the newer and same in characteristics "Plastic Number" expressed as "PN". For more information about this regard take a look at: HERE! CUSTOM(K) EXPONENTIAL MOVING AVERAGE: Some code has cleaned from last version to include as custom function the nEMA , which use an additional input (K) to customise the way the "exponentially" is weighted from the custom array. For the purpose of this indicator, I implement a volatility algorithm using the Average True Range of last 9 periods multiplied by the morphic number used in the fractal study. (Golden Ratio as default) The result is very similar in response to classic EMA but tend to accelerate or decelerate much more responsive with wider bars presented in trending average. FRACTAL DEVIATION BANDS: The main idea is based on the so useful Standard Deviation process to create Bands in favor of a multiplier (As John Bollinger used in it's own bands) from a custom array, in which for this case is the "Volume Pressure Moving Average" as the main Vortex for the "Fractallitly", so then apply as many "Child bands" using the older one as the new calculation array using the same morphic constant as multiplier (Like Fibonacci but with other approach rather than %ratios). Results are AWSOME! Market tend to accelerate or decelerate their Trend in favor of a Fractal approach. This bands try to catch them, so please experiment and feedback me your own observations. EXTERNAL TICKER FOR VOLUME DATA: I Added a way to input volume data for this kind of study from external tickers. This is just a quicky-hack given that currently TradingView is not adding Volume to their Indexes so; maybe this is temporary by now. It seems that this part of the code is conflicting with intraday timeframes, so You are advised. This CODE is versioned as BETA FOR TESTING PROPOSES. By now TradingView Admins are changing lot's of things internally, so maybe this could conflict with correct rendering of this study with special tickers or timeframes. I will try to code by itself just the core parts of this study in order to use them at discretion in other areas.
