Volume
squeeze candles with volume Function :
This indicator was designed to detect specific candles called “squeeze”. These candles are characterized by a relatively small body (the difference between the opening and closing price) and long shadows (the distance between the high and low prices), accompanied by significant volume. They often indicate a period of increased volatility or a potential trend reversal.
Use :
Visual detection:
Candles identified as "squeeze" are highlighted in red on the chart.
An “S” icon appears above each detected squeeze candle.
Alerts:
The indicator emits an audible and visual alert when a squeeze candle with high volume is detected (if alerts are enabled).
Market analysis:
This indicator is particularly useful for identifying trading opportunities during periods when the market is showing signs of compression or impending volatility.
Customizable settings:
Minimum volume: Defines the threshold at which the volume is considered high.
Maximum body/shadow ratio: Allows you to adjust the sensitivity to detect squeeze candles (the lower the ratio, the smaller the detected candles will have in relation to their shadows).
Benefits :
Provides accurate alerts on key market candles.
Helps anticipate large movements through analysis of volume and candle characteristics.
Adaptable to different strategies thanks to adjustable parameters.
Ideal for:
Traders who want to identify areas of potential volatility or reversal signals in the market, regardless of the asset or time frame used.

[AlbaTherium] Volume Venturius Premium Volume Venturius Premium
Introduction
The Volume Venturius Premium is an advanced market analysis tool designed to deeply investigate the behavior of active market participants. By focusing exclusively on executed market orders, Volume Venturius offers traders a unique perspective on buy and sell volumes. Unlike traditional order books that track passive orders, this indicator isolates active orders, shedding light on real market dynamics.
Chapter 1: Understanding Market Participants
1.1 Categories of Market Participants
Market participants can be classified into several categories based on their:
Size : The volume of trades executed.
Influence : Their ability to initiate bull or bear campaigns.
Strategy : The trading methods employed, such as scalping, swing trading, or high-frequency trading.
Objectives : Whether their focus is on speculation, hedging, or arbitrage.
Time Horizon : Short-term versus long-term goals.
Behavioral Patterns : Their reaction to liquidity levels or price movements.
1.2 Objectives of Market Participants
Each category pursues specific objectives, such as profit-making or risk management. Regulatory reports like the Commitment of Traders (COT) provide weekly insights into the positions and intentions of major players.
Chapter 2: The Philosophy of Volume Analysis
2.1 Active Orders vs. Passive Orders
Unlike passive orders waiting to be filled at specific prices, active orders directly impact market prices. By focusing on these executed orders, Volume Venturius Premium provides traders with actionable insights into market trends and momentum.
2.2 Wyckoff’s Market Dynamics
According to Wyckoff, markets operate in two primary phases:
Manipulation: Where large participants accumulate or distribute positions to prepare for a move.
Expansion: The phase where price trends begin to unfold, either in a bullish or bearish direction.
Wyckoff’s theory emphasizes understanding how major players manipulate the market to identify accumulation or distribution zones. Volume Venturius Premium aids in pinpointing these manipulative actions by analyzing volume and order flow data.
Chapter 3: The Secrets of Order Flow and Volume
3.1 Unveiling Market Control
By studying the positioning and execution volumes of large players, traders can discern who holds control in the market. Volume Venturius Premium identifies the balance of power and tracks shifts that signal potential trend reversals.
3.2 Behavioral Patterns in Volume
Key metrics tracked by Volume Venturius Premium include:
Volume Clusters : Areas of concentrated buying or selling activity.
Directional Bias : Whether market participants are net buyers or sellers.
Momentum Shifts : Changes in execution speed and volume that may precede major moves.
3.2.1 Volume Clusters, Directional Bias and Directional Bias: Areas of Concentrated Buying or Selling Activity
Volume clusters play a crucial role in understanding market dynamics by highlighting areas where aggressive buying or selling activity is most concentrated. These clusters often serve as key decision zones, providing insights into potential reversals, breakouts, or continuations. To better visualize and interpret these zones, a distinct color-coding system has been implemented. Each color represents a specific market condition or level of activity, allowing for a more intuitive analysis of volume behavior and its influence on price movement.
Below is a detailed explanation of the color logic used to represent these clusters and their significance within the trading framework.
Color Interpretation and Meaning :
Extra Extreme Zones
These zones highlight areas where clusters of aggressive buyers or sellers are most heavily concentrated. They represent critical levels for identifying potential reversals or strong continuations.
Bright Red (#ff003c) : Represents extra-extreme sell zones, where aggressive sellers dominate.
Meaning: Indicates extreme selling pressure, often signaling potential exhaustion of sellers.
Bright Blue (#001eff) : Represents extra-extreme buy zones, where aggressive buyers are most active.
Meaning: Shows extreme buying pressure, possibly marking a saturation point for buyers.
Main Zones
These zones help identify key levels based on volume activity and well-defined clusters.
Dark Red (#d60033) : Represents strong selling pressure.
Orange (#ff8000) : Indicates significant selling pressure that begins to fade.
Yellow (#ffff00) : Represents moderate selling pressure, signaling a potential slowdown.
White (#ffffff) : Marks transition zones, which are interesting entry points for potential reversals or continuations.
Transition Zones (Frontier Zones)
These zones indicate intermediate movements and potential shifts in momentum.
Transparent Black (#000000, 50) : Represents transition areas, where the market tests boundaries between buyers and sellers.
Meaning: These are critical decision points.
Neutral Zone (Sea Zone)- Trend Zones
These zones represent more balanced market activity, where neither buyers nor sellers dominate clearly.
Transparent Green (#00e040, 25) : Indicates slight bullish activity in a neutral zone.
Transparent Red (#e01a00, 25) : Indicates slight bearish activity in a neutral zone.
This color logic allows you to pinpoint areas where volume clusters show a clear dominance, exhaustion, or optimal entry opportunities.
3.3 Divergences Between Price and Volume
Divergences between price and volume are critical for identifying key shifts in market sentiment. Volume Venturius Premium distinguishes two main types of divergences: Lack of Participation and Absorption, each offering valuable signals for potential reversals or continuations.
Lack of Participation
This divergence occurs when price movements are not supported by corresponding volume dynamics, signaling a reduction in activity from significant market participants.
1. Bullish Lack of Participation:
Characteristics : Price is making lower lows, but volume is making higher lows.
This indicates waning selling pressure as prices drop.
Inference : A potential bullish reversal may occur. Traders could consider looking for opportunities to go long.
2.Bearish Lack of Participation:
Characteristics : Price is making higher highs, but volume is making lower highs. This suggests diminishing buying pressure even as prices rise.
Inference : A potential bearish reversal might follow. Traders might position to go short.
Absorption
Absorption occurs when larger market participants neutralize the pressure from smaller participants, often leading to significant market moves.
1.Bullish Absorption:
Characteristics : Price is making higher bottoms, but volume is making lower bottoms.
This reflects sellers being trapped as their selling efforts are absorbed by larger buyers.
Inference : A potential upward breakout is likely. Traders may look for opportunities to go long.
2.Bearish Absorption:
Characteristics : Price is making lower tops, but volume is making higher tops. This indicates buyers being trapped as larger sellers absorb their buying activity.
Inference : A downward breakout is probable. Traders may consider positioning to go short.

Volume Spike DetectorVolume Spike Detector
This script is designed to identify significant spikes in trading volume and visually represent them on the chart. It calculates the 20-period simple moving average (SMA) of the trading volume and multiplies it by a user-defined threshold to determine the spike threshold. When the current volume exceeds this threshold, the script detects and highlights a volume spike.
Key Features:
Dynamic Spike Threshold:
The script calculates the spike threshold dynamically based on the average trading volume. Users can customize the threshold multiplier using an input setting.
Example: A threshold multiplier of 2.0 means the current volume must be twice the 20-period SMA to trigger a detection.
Visual Representation:
The current volume is plotted in blue bars.
The spike threshold is plotted as a red line, making it easy to visually identify when the volume crosses the threshold.
Alert Notification:
When a volume spike is detected, an alert is triggered to notify the user.
This feature is useful for real-time monitoring and spotting potential trading opportunities.
Use Case:
Traders can use this tool to identify sudden increases in trading activity, which may indicate a significant market move or event. It’s suitable for all markets, including cryptocurrencies, stocks, and forex.
Scatter PlotThe Price Volume Scatter Plot publication aims to provide intrabar detail as a Scatter Plot .
🔶 USAGE
A dot is drawn at every intrabar close price and its corresponding volume , as can seen in the following example:
Price is placed against the white y-axis, where volume is represented on the orange x-axis.
🔹 More detail
A Scatter Plot can be beneficial because it shows more detail compared with a Volume Profile (seen at the right of the Scatter Plot).
The Scatter Plot is accompanied by a "Line of Best Fit" (linear regression line) to help identify the underlying direction, which can be helpful in interpretation/evaluation.
It can be set as a screener by putting multiple layouts together.
🔹 Easier Interpretation
Instead of analysing the 1-minute chart together with volume, this can be visualised in the Scatter Plot, giving a straightforward and easy-to-interpret image of intrabar volume per price level.
One of the scatter plot's advantages is that volumes at the same price level are added to each other.
A dot on the scatter plot represents the cumulated amount of volume at that particular price level, regardless of whether the price closed one or more times at that price level.
Depending on the setting "Direction" , which sets the direction of the Volume-axis, users can hoover to see the corresponding price/volume.
🔹 Highest Intrabar Volume Values
Users can display up to 5 last maximum intrabar volume values, together with the intrabar timeframe (Res)
🔹 Practical Examples
When we divide the recent bar into three parts, the following can be noticed:
Price spends most of its time in the upper part, with relative medium-low volume, since the intrabar close prices are mostly situated in the upper left quadrant.
Price spends a shorter time in the middle part, with relative medium-low volume.
Price moved rarely below 61800 (the lowest part), but it was associated with high volume. None of the intrabar close prices reached the lowest area, and the price bounced back.
In the following example, the latest weekly candle shows a rejection of the 45.8 - 48.5K area, with the highest volume at the 45.8K level.
The next three successive candles show a declining maximum intrabar volume, after which the price broke through the 45.8K area.
🔹 Visual Options
There are many visual options available.
🔹 Change Direction
The Scatter Plot can be set in 4 different directions.
🔶 NOTES
🔹 Notes
The script uses the maximum available resources to draw the price/volume dots, which are 500 boxes and 500 labels. When the population size exceeds 1000, a warning is provided ( Not all data is shown ); otherwise, only the population size is displayed.
The Scatter Plot ideally needs a chart which contains at least 100 bars. When it contains less, a warning will be shown: bars < 100, not all data is shown
🔹 LTF Settings
When 'Auto' is enabled ( Settings , LTF ), the LTF will be the nearest possible x times smaller TF than the current TF. When 'Premium' is disabled, the minimum TF will always be 1 minute to ensure TradingView plans lower than Premium don't get an error.
Examples with current Daily TF (when Premium is enabled):
500 : 3 minute LTF
1500 (default): 1 minute LTF
5000: 30 seconds LTF (1 minute if Premium is disabled)
🔶 SETTINGS
Direction: Direction of Volume-axis; Left, Right, Up or Down
🔹 LTF
LTF: LTF setting
Auto + multiple: Adjusts the initial set LTF
Premium: Enable when your TradingView plan is Premium or higher

CVD OscillatorCVD Delta Oscillator
A momentum oscillator that measures buying and selling pressure through volume analysis, based on the principle that volume precedes price (cause and effect).
How It Works
Volume Analysis
Measures the force of buying and selling by analyzing how volume interacts with price movement within each bar
When price closes higher in a bar's range with strong volume, this indicates stronger buying pressure
When price closes lower in a bar's range with strong volume, this indicates stronger selling pressure
Momentum Measurement
Uses two EMAs (fast and slow) to smooth the volume delta
The difference between these EMAs creates an oscillator that shows:
Rising values = Buying pressure increasing
Falling values = Selling pressure increasing
Zero line crossovers = Potential shift in control between buyers and sellers
Signal Generation
Divergences
Bullish: Price falls to new lows while buying pressure increases (potential reversal up)
Bearish: Price rises to new highs while selling pressure increases (potential reversal down)
Zero-Line Crossovers
Bullish: Buying pressure overtakes selling pressure
Bearish: Selling pressure overtakes buying pressure
Practical Application
Reading the Indicator
Green columns above zero = Net buying pressure
Red columns below zero = Net selling pressure
Larger columns = Stronger pressure
Divergences and crossovers = Potential turning points
Trading Context
Helps identify when price movement has strong or weak volume support
Shows potential exhaustion points through divergences
Confirms trend changes through zero-line crossovers
Customization
Adjustable EMA periods for different trading styles
Toggle-able visual signals
Automatic alerts for all signals
Weekly Bottom Finder 1.0A Tool for Identifying Market Bottoms
The Weekly Bottom Finder indicator is designed for in-depth market analysis on weekly timeframes. Utilizing innovative methodology, it allows traders to identify potential zones of market bottoms, which often mark the beginning of new bullish trends. This indicator combines multiple advanced algorithms working in unison to deliver accurate and reliable signals.
What Makes Weekly Bottom Finder Unique?
Comprehensive Approach
The indicator integrates several analytical techniques, including:
Volume Analysis: Evaluates market activity to highlight significant interest.
Money Flow Index (MFI): Detects overbought and oversold zones.
ATR (Average True Range): Accounts for market volatility.
Advanced Internal Algorithms: Measures trend strength and consistency.
Accurate Bottom Detection
Signals are only generated when all conditions confirm a potential market bottom. This minimizes false signals that are common with many other indicators.
Visualization
Potential market bottom zones are displayed as light green vertical lines, making signals easy to identify without cluttering the chart.
Adaptability
Weekly Bottom Finder automatically adjusts to market conditions, considering volume, volatility, and market dynamics, making it a versatile tool for different markets and scenarios.
Key Features
Parameter Synchronization
The indicator uses finely tuned thresholds for trend analysis, effectively filtering out short-term market noise.
Balanced Settings
Users can adjust the "Bottom Sensitivity" parameter to customize the indicator to their needs, providing either more or fewer signals based on their trading strategy.
Weekly Timeframe
Specifically designed for long-term analysis on weekly candles, the indicator performs effectively across various markets, including cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, traditional stock markets, and forex trading. It's worth testing the indicator's performance on different exchanges for the same cryptocurrency. Price movements can vary slightly between exchanges, resulting in a different number of signals.
Volume Filters
An additional volume filter ensures that signals are generated only in zones where the market exhibits genuine participant interest.
How Does Weekly Bottom Finder Work?
Calculating Bottom Zones
The indicator identifies potential bottoms when prices are in oversold zones (low MFI) and the market shows high volume, indicating buyer interest.
Double Signal Verification
Each signal is filtered through a system of rules, including ATR and volume analysis, to avoid false positives.
Additional Information
Weekly Bottom Finder helps traders pinpoint key moments when the market may be reaching its lowest points, creating potential entry opportunities. However, it does not provide guarantees and serves only as a supplementary tool for deeper market understanding.
Please Note: Weekly Bottom Finder is an analytical tool that should be used alongside your own research and risk management strategies.
Ask-Weighted Averages This indicator provides two price-based reference lines derived from volume dynamics within each bar. Specifically, it calculates a volume-weighted average price using only the portion of trading volume that occurred on the "ask" side, implying more aggressive buying activity. The logic behind this approach is to highlight potential support and resistance levels where buyers have shown greater conviction.
Key Features:
Ask-Weighted Average Prices:
Instead of using the entire trade volume, the lines focus on "ask volume" (volume associated with trades occurring at or near the ask price). This helps to spotlight areas where buyers have been dominant, potentially revealing more meaningful price levels for future market behavior.
Conditional vs. Continuous Lines:
Conditional Line: This line is only plotted if the dollar volume (a rough measure of trade value) exceeds a specified threshold, ensuring that the highlighted level is backed by substantial trading activity.
Continuous Line: A second line is always displayed, providing a running ask-weighted average price reference for additional context, regardless of dollar volume.
Supports Identifying Key Price Zones:
By focusing on where more motivated buyers have been active, the indicator helps traders identify potential inflection points in price, such as areas where the market might find support on pullbacks or resistance during rallies.
Overall, this indicator serves as a specialized tool for traders interested in volume-driven price analysis. It aims to refine the understanding of where buyers are most engaged and how that might shape future price movements.
Risks Associated with Trading:
No indicator can guarantee profitable trades or accurately predict future price movements. Market conditions are inherently unpredictable, and reliance on any single tool or combination of tools carries the risk of financial loss. Traders should practice sound risk management, including the use of stop losses and position sizing, and should not trade with funds they cannot afford to lose. Ultimately, decisions should be guided by a thorough trading plan and possibly supplemented with other forms of market analysis or professional advice.
Risks and Important Considerations:
• Not a Standalone Tool:
• This indicator should not be used in isolation. It is essential to incorporate additional technical analysis tools, fundamental analysis, and market context when making trading decisions.
• Relying solely on this indicator may lead to incomplete assessments of market conditions.
• Market Volatility and False Signals:
• Financial markets can be highly volatile, and indicators based on historical data may not accurately predict future movements.
• The indicator may produce false signals due to sudden market changes, low liquidity, or atypical trading activity.
• Risk Management:
• Always employ robust risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders, diversifying your portfolio, and not over-leveraging positions.
• Understand that no indicator guarantees success, and losses are a natural part of trading.
• Emotional Discipline:
• Avoid making impulsive decisions based on indicator signals alone.
• Emotional trading can lead to significant financial losses; maintain discipline and adhere to a well-thought-out trading plan.
• Continuous Learning and Adaptation:
• Stay informed about market news, economic indicators, and global events that may impact trading conditions.
• Continuously evaluate and adjust your trading strategies as market dynamics evolve.
• Consultation with Professionals:
• Consider seeking advice from financial advisors or professional traders to understand better how this indicator can fit into your overall trading strategy.
• Professional guidance can provide personalized insights based on your financial goals and risk tolerance.
Disclaimer:
Trading financial instruments involves substantial risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. This indicator is provided for informational and educational purposes only and should not be considered investment advice. Always conduct your own research and consult with a licensed financial professional before making any trading decisions.
Note: The effectiveness of any technical indicator can vary based on market conditions and individual trading styles. It's crucial to test indicators thoroughly using historical data and possibly paper trading before applying them in live trading scenarios.

30-Day Avg Vol (Blue Line): Tracks the average volume over the past 30 days, providing a baseline for typical trading activity.
Breakout Vol (White Line): Highlights the volume threshold needed for a potential breakout, calculated as a user-defined percentage above the 30-day average volume (default: 40%).
In addition to these enhancements, the indicator breaks down total trading volume into buying and selling components and calculates the percentage of buy volume for each bar.
🟥 Red Bars: Represent total volume.
🟩 Teal Bars: Show the buying volume within each candle.
🟨 Buy %: Displays the percentage of buy volume dynamically in the indicator panel, highlighted in yellow for quick visibility.
Use this tool to easily spot accumulation (buying pressure) or distribution (selling pressure) trends, customize breakout thresholds, and identify key breakout opportunities. Simple, clear, and effective for volume-based analysis!
How Are Buy Volume and Sell Volume Calculated?
This indicator uses a proportional approach to estimate buy and sell volumes based on price action:
Buy Volume: The portion of total volume where the price is moving upward, representing trades executed at the ask price.
Formula:
Buy Volume = (close - low) / (high - low) * volume
Sell Volume: The portion of total volume where the price is moving downward, representing trades executed at the bid price.
Formula:
Sell Volume = (high - close) / (high - low) * volume
If the high and low prices are the same (flat bar), both buy and sell volumes are set to 0.
Why This Matters
This calculation assumes the close price’s position within the high-to-low range reflects the balance of buying and selling activity:
Close near the high: Most volume is buy volume.
Close near the low: Most volume is sell volume.
Close in the middle: Volume is split between buying and selling.
By breaking down volume in this way, the indicator helps traders identify key trends like accumulation (buying pressure) and distribution (selling pressure), making it a powerful tool for volume-based analysis.
Volume Rate of Change (VROC)Volume Rate of Change (VROC) is an indicator that calculates the percentage change in trading volume over a specific period, helping analyze market momentum and activity. It is calculated as:
VROC = ((Current Volume - Past Volume) ÷ Past Volume) × 100
This indicator shows changes in market interest. Positive values indicate increasing volume, while negative values signal a decrease. High VROC values often suggest potential trend reversals or breakouts.
Applications:
Breakout Validation: VROC > 200% confirms strong breakouts; below this may signal false moves.
Market Stagnation: VROC < 0% suggests shrinking volume and range-bound markets.
Trend End Alert: A drop below 0% during trends may indicate weakening momentum.
Adjusting for Timeframes: Tailor VROC to timeframes.
Examples:
Daily: VROC(5) compares with last week's same day; VROC(20) with 1 month ago.
Monthly: VROC(12) compares with the same month last year; VROC(1) with last month.
Intraday: VROC(24) (hourly) and VROC(288) (5 minutes) for the same time yesterday.
Combined VolumeThis indicator displays the combined volume for all the exchanges listed in the settings menu.
For example, with the default settings, on BTCUSD the indicator will display the current market's volume AND the volume of all other major exchanges listed on TradingView.
The gray indicator value is the current exchange's volume, the colored volume is the combined volume of all other exchanges, allowing you to compare the current exchange's volume to the broad market to give you a better idea of local exchange activity versus broad market activity.
If you want to add more exchange tickers, turn "debug" mode on and a small label will appear in the top right telling you which market type & exchange ticker you're currently on. All exchange tickers must be separated by a comma.
The "Other Exchanges" input setting overrides all other lists allowing you to specify your own exchange list for assets not provided by the default settings (the indicator supports crypto, forex and stocks by default).

PrimeMomentum 1.1The PrimeMomentum indicator is not just an adaptation of classic tools like MA, BB, RSI, or WaveTrend. It is an innovative tool that combines several key elements and offers a unique methodology for market analysis. Its primary goal is to help traders avoid false entries and provide signals for making trading decisions.
What Makes PrimeMomentum Unique?
Integration of Multi-Timeframe Data with a Unique Signal Filtering Approach
PrimeMomentum processes data from four timeframes simultaneously, not merely to display trends but to assess the synchronization of momentum across each timeframe. This allows traders to receive signals only when all intervals confirm the direction. This approach minimizes the risk of false signals often encountered with standard tools.
PrimeMomentum analyzes the market across four timeframes:
TF1 (long-term): Displays the overall market direction.
TF2 (medium-term): Refines the current dynamics.
TF3 (short-term): Provides detailed analysis.
TF4 (very short-term): Confirms entry or exit points.
The combination of data from these timeframes allows traders to avoid frequent switching between intervals, simplifying analysis.
Innovative Reversal Logic
PrimeMomentum features a specialized algorithm for identifying trend reversals. Its uniqueness lies in the interaction between dynamic smoothing (EMA) and multi-level momentum assessment, enabling accurate identification of potential trend reversal points.
Dynamic Adaptation to Market Conditions
The indicator automatically adjusts smoothing parameters and threshold values based on market volatility. This enables it to adapt effectively to both calm and volatile markets.
Signals for entering Long or Short positions are generated only when the following conditions are met:
- Momentum shifts from negative to positive (for Long) or from positive to negative (for Short).
- Dynamic smoothing confirms the trend.
- Defined thresholds are reached.
Trend Strength Assessment
Unlike traditional indicators, PrimeMomentum evaluates not only the direction but also the strength of a trend by analyzing the relationship between momentum across each timeframe. This helps traders understand how stable the current market movement is.
The indicator analyzes price changes over a specific period, determining how much current prices deviate from previous ones. This data allows for assessing the strength of market movements.
Combination of Classic Elements with Proprietary Logic
While PrimeMomentum may utilize some widely known components like EMA, its algorithm is built on proprietary logic for evaluating market conditions. This sets it apart from standard solutions that merely display basic indicators without deeper analysis.
Added Value of PrimeMomentum
Trend Visualization with Concept Explanations
PrimeMomentum provides traders with clear visual signals, simplifying market analysis. Each element (color, line direction) is based on momentum and trend-smoothing concepts, enabling traders to make decisions quickly.
Results are displayed as color-coded lines:
- Dark violet: Long-term trend.
- Blue: Medium-term trend.
- Turquoise and light blue: Short-term trends.
If all momentum lines reach a peak and begin turning downward, it may indicate an approaching bearish trend.
If all lines reach a bottom and start turning upward, it may signal the beginning of a bullish trend.
Reversals can also serve as signals for exiting positions.
MoneyFlow
The PrimeMomentum indicator includes a visualization of MoneyFlow, allowing traders to assess capital flows within the selected timeframe. This functionality helps to analyze market trends more accurately and make well-informed decisions.
MoneyFlow Features:
Dynamic MoneyFlow Visualization:
MoneyFlow is displayed as an area that changes color based on its value:
- Green (with transparency) when MoneyFlow is above zero (positive flow).
- Red (with transparency) when MoneyFlow is below zero (negative flow).
Automatic Scaling:
MoneyFlow values automatically adjust to the chart’s scale to ensure visibility alongside the Momentum lines.
Double Smoothing:
To ensure a smoother and more representation, MoneyFlow uses double smoothing based on EMA.
Customizable Colors and Transparency:
Traders can customize the colors for positive and negative MoneyFlow and adjust the transparency level to fit their preferences.
How MoneyFlow Works:
- MoneyFlow calculations are based on the MFI (Money Flow Index), which considers both price and volume.
- MoneyFlow values are integrated into the overall PrimeMomentum chart and combined with other signals for deeper analysis.
Advantages of the New Functionality:
- Helps quickly identify capital flows into or out of the market.
- Complements Momentum analysis to provide a more comprehensive view of market conditions.
- Enhances decision-making efficiency through flexible visualization settings.
Note: MoneyFlow adapts to the selected timeframe and displays data corresponding to the current interval on the price chart.
Simplicity for Beginners and Depth for Professionals
The indicator is designed to be user-friendly for traders of all experience levels. Beginners benefit from intuitive signals, while experienced traders can leverage in-depth analysis for more complex strategies.
PrimeMomentum Usage Modes

Volume IQOverview
Volume IQ is meant to be the ‘intelligent volume distribution analyzer’ that takes much of the work of interpreting volume profiles off of your shoulders. It attempts to ‘do the technical analysis’ of volume data for you, with its capstone feature being "Trading Action Zones": ranges on the chart whose placement are determined by high and low volume nodes and sentiment analysis, and their adapting range affected by current volatility. These zones are meant to offer practical levels for potential entries, exits, targets, and stops while trading. These zones are the cherry on top of other useful and original features like visuals for grouping areas of similar buy/sell bias.
Originality and Usefulness
Volume IQ stands out for its originality by offering a data-driven approach to interpreting volume profiles and presenting its analysis on the chart. Unlike traditional volume profiles, Volume IQ automates much of the volume analysis process, helping traders identify potential opportunities and key trading areas with minimal effort. Its unique "Trading Action Zones" leverage high and low volume nodes, sentiment analysis, and current volatility to highlight practical levels for entries, exits, targets, and stops. Additionally, the tool provides grouped bias visuals, gradient coloring, and flexible customization options, allowing traders to gain a clearer understanding of market sentiment and structure. By simplifying complex volume data into actionable insights, Volume IQ provides a valuable and efficient resource for charting on TradingView.
The ‘Capstone’ Feature:
Trading ‘Action Zones’: Potential areas to take trading action based on built-in interpretations of high-volume nodes, low-volume nodes, and overarching chart sentiment (whose calculation is described below), and their interplay. Categorized by tiers - with Tier 2 zones intended as potential entry areas, and Tier 1 zones for exits or adds. These zones can also present logical areas to consider targets and stops, for example placing a stop loss in a Tier 1 sell zone below price where there is a series of low-volume nodes and potentially not much support. These zones help you quickly identify potential areas on the chart to ‘take action’.
Key Features:
Level and Block Biases: By estimating buying and selling volume, as well as leveraging intrabar data, the Volume IQ profile provides detailed buy/sell sentiment at individual price levels. It then groups together consecutive price levels with the same bias into what we call ‘Block Biases’ making it easy to determine larger price areas with distinct buying or selling pressure.
Chart Sentiment Analysis: A ‘continuously optimizing algorithm’ configured to find high average runups after a sentiment switch powers what we call ‘bias guidelines’ which border the Volume IQ profile and influence the determination of Action Zones. This algorithm is based on comparing many combinations of volume-weighted trends, largely based on smoothed volume weighted moving averages, on each bar, to ensure that the approach with the highest average runup amongst the combinations is used.
Zones of Control: A gradient-coloring approach to the profile highlighst areas of influence at a glance, making it easier to focus on key price levels.
Broad Compatibility: Works across all chart timeframes and market types - so long as volume data and OHLC candle data is available.
Highly Customizable: Configure features to align with your trading preferences and workflow. Show them all, or pick and choose the ones you want.
Settings
Use a Color Theme: Toggle between our predefined color themes or customize your own.
Style: Select your preferred color theme (e.g., "TI Fusion").
Colors (When Not Using a Theme): Customize primary, secondary, and background colors for your own non-theme styling.
Gradient Coloring: Enable or disable gradient shading of the profile for visual enhancement of zones with high control and low control.
Action Zones: Turn trading action zones on or off to highlight key trading levels.
Time Staggering: Enabling this option will simply ‘stagger’ the display of action zones horizontally. Zones closer to price will be placed leftwards, and as they become more distant from price, they will be ‘staggered out’ rightwards, to give an intuitive feel for the time it may take for price to reach these zones.
Tier Labels: Enable or disable the ‘tier labels’ (1 square for Tier 1, 2 squares for Tier 2) for action zones.
Bias Blocks: Toggle the display of grouped buy/sell bias blocks.
Extend: Choose how the bias blocks are displayed: “Left” to stretch them from the end to the beginning of the histogram, “Right” to extend from the end outwards, and “Across” to extend from the beginning to outwards past the end, enveloping the bias and volume count labels.
Opacity: Adjust the transparency level of bias blocks (0–100).
Level Bias Labels: Turn on/off labels for individual price level biases.
Bias Guidelines: Enable the visual guidelines for bias levels which border the profile.
Volume Counts: Toggle volume count labels for each of the profile’s price levels.
Split Buy/Sell Volume: Enable separate display of buy and sell volume for each level (buy volume on the left, sell volume on the right).
Font Size: Adjust the font size for these labels.
Histogram Display: Choose the display option for the histogram bars of the profile themselves: "Full View" will display the profile, and “None” will hide it.
BG Shading Logic: Adjust the background shading logic for the display: “Neutral” will use the ‘Neutral Color’ from your color theme to put some emphasis around high and low volume nodes, while “None” will remove any background shading.
Detail: This option allows you to set the granularity of the volume data used: “Bar Data” will simply use the bar data from the chart timeframe, while “Intrabar Data” will attempt to use bar data from a lower timeframe. Please note that using intrabar data may not be available with your TradingView subscription on some timeframes, and also that using intrabar data may increase calculation time.
Data Request: Choose the lookback for the volume distribution: "Long-term" will look back 500 bars, and “Short-Term” will halve this.
# of Levels: Specify the number of levels/rows to display for visualizing the distribution.

Trend Stability Index (TSI)Overview
The Trend Stability Index (TSI) is a technical analysis tool designed to evaluate the stability of a market trend by analyzing both price movements and trading volume. By combining these two crucial elements, the TSI provides traders with insights into the strength and reliability of ongoing trends, assisting in making informed trading decisions.
Key Features
• Dual Analysis: Integrates price changes and volume fluctuations to assess trend stability.
• Customizable Periods: Allows users to set evaluation periods for both trend and volume based on their trading preferences.
• Visual Indicators: Displays the Trend Stability Index as a line chart, highlights neutral zones, and uses background colors to indicate trend stability or instability.
Configuration Settings
1. Trend Length (trendLength)
• Description: Determines the number of periods over which the price stability is evaluated.
• Default Value: 15
• Usage: A longer trend length smooths out short-term volatility, providing a clearer picture of the overarching trend.
2. Volume Length (volumeLength)
• Description: Sets the number of periods over which trading volume changes are assessed.
• Default Value: 15
• Usage: Adjusting the volume length helps in capturing significant volume movements that may influence trend strength.
Calculation Methodology
The Trend Stability Index is calculated through a series of steps that analyze both price and volume changes:
1. Price Change Rate (priceChange)
• Calculation: Utilizes the Rate of Change (ROC) function on the closing prices over the specified trendLength.
• Purpose: Measures the percentage change in price over the trend evaluation period, indicating the direction and momentum of the price movement.
2. Volume Change Rate (volumeChange)
• Calculation: Applies the Rate of Change (ROC) function to the trading volume over the specified volumeLength.
• Purpose: Assesses the percentage change in trading volume, providing insight into the conviction behind price movements.
3. Trend Stability (trendStability)
• Calculation: Multiplies priceChange by volumeChange.
• Purpose: Combines price and volume changes to gauge the overall stability of the trend. A higher positive value suggests a strong and stable trend, while negative values may indicate trend weakness or reversal.
4. Trend Stability Index (TSI)
• Calculation: Applies a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to the trendStability over the trendLength period.
• Purpose: Smooths the trend stability data to create a more consistent and interpretable index.
Trend/Ranging Determination
• Stable Trend (isStable)
• Condition: When the TSI value is greater than 0.
• Interpretation: Indicates that the current trend is stable and likely to continue in its direction.
• Unstable Trend / Range-bound Market
• Condition: When the TSI value is less than or equal to 0.
• Interpretation: Suggests that the trend may be weakening, reversing, or that the market is moving sideways without a clear direction.
Visualization
The TSI indicator employs several visual elements to convey information effectively:
1. TSI Line
• Representation: Plotted as a blue line.
• Purpose: Displays the Trend Stability Index values over time, allowing traders to observe trend stability dynamics.
2. Neutral Horizontal Line
• Representation: A gray horizontal line at the 0 level.
• Purpose: Serves as a reference point to distinguish between stable and unstable trends.
3. Background Color
• Stable Trend: Green background with 80% transparency when isStable is true.
• Unstable Trend: Red background with 80% transparency when isStable is false.
• Purpose: Provides an immediate visual cue about the current trend’s stability, enhancing the interpretability of the indicator.
Usage Guidelines
• Identifying Trend Strength: Utilize the TSI to confirm the strength of existing trends. A consistently positive TSI suggests strong trend momentum, while a negative TSI may signal caution or a potential reversal.
• Volume Confirmation: The integration of volume changes helps in validating price movements. Significant price changes accompanied by corresponding volume shifts can reinforce the reliability of the trend.
• Entry and Exit Signals: Traders can use crossovers of the TSI with the neutral line (0 level) as potential entry or exit points. For instance, a crossover from below to above 0 may indicate a bullish trend initiation, while a crossover from above to below 0 could suggest bearish momentum.
• Combining with Other Indicators: To enhance trading strategies, consider using the TSI in conjunction with other technical indicators such as Moving Averages, RSI, or MACD for comprehensive market analysis.
Example Scenario
Imagine analyzing a stock with the following observations using the TSI:
• The TSI has been consistently above 0 for the past 30 periods, accompanied by increasing trading volume. This scenario indicates a strong and stable uptrend, suggesting that buying opportunities may be favorable.
• Conversely, if the TSI drops below 0 while the price remains relatively flat and volume decreases, it may imply that the current trend is losing momentum, and the market could be entering a consolidation phase or preparing for a trend reversal.
Conclusion
The Trend Stability Index is a valuable tool for traders seeking to assess the reliability and strength of market trends by integrating price and volume dynamics. Its customizable settings and clear visual indicators make it adaptable to various trading styles and market conditions. By incorporating the TSI into your trading analysis, you can enhance your ability to identify and act upon stable and profitable trends.
Volume Spike LevelsThis trading indicator finds specific high volume patterns that we have found to be the most likely to act as strong support and resistance levels and plots them on the chart. Using those high probability levels, the indicator will show lines in real time, as well as lines and important zones at the beginning of higher time frames to give you specific levels and areas where price is likely to react.
The most important volume zone for each time frame will have a color fill between the top and bottom lines of that high probability zone so you know to pay extra close attention to that area and look for price reactions there. If you can be patient enough to wait for price to hit these important areas and start to reverse, you will get great entries and help keep yourself from overtrading.
The levels shown can be adjusted to suit your preference, allowing you to get the right amount of levels for your trading strategy, whether that be scalping the 1 minute chart or long term investing via the daily chart.
HOW TO USE
For best results with this indicator, look for 2 types of setups. The first setup is a continuation bounce. You should be looking for these when price has broken out of its recent trading range either to the upside or the downside. When price is extending like this, look to take entries once a volume spike level shows up on the chart and price retraces back to that level. Then take your entry in the same direction as the trend. You can scalp quick wins this way, or you can wait for the next volume spike level to show up and price can’t hold that level any more, then get out. Place your stop loss just beyond the pivot that bounced off of the volume level.
The second type of setup you should look for is a reversal setup. This setup should be used when the market is ranging. Look for the top and bottom of the recent range and find the volume spike levels near the top or bottom of that range and wait for price to reach those levels. Once price hits that level and starts to show a reversal in price, take your entry. You can take quick scalps from those reversals for quick wins, or you can wait for price to reach the next major volume spike level and get out there or just before it. Place your stop loss just beyond the pivot that price made at the volume spike level where you entered your trade.
No matter which setup you are trading, it is never a bad idea to trail your stop loss as price moves towards your take profit level. Whatever volume spike timeframes you are using for your overall trend, you can use a lower time frame volume spike level to give you price points to trail your stop loss to there once price gets supportive at those levels and moves past them.
You should also pay close attention to how price reacts to the important volume zones shown. Many times, price will range inside or near these zones for a while and then form an accumulation just above or below that zone. When this happens, it is likely that price will start to move quickly in the direction that price moved away from that important zone. So when you see the price range inside of these zones and then go just beyond the zone on either side and accumulate, look to trade that breakout of the zone in the same direction that it moved away from the zone.
Note that on lower time frame charts, you will not be able to get some higher time frame levels because Tradingview limits the number of historical bars it can calculate on. So if you are on the 1-5 minute chart, you won’t be able to get yearly or quarterly levels late in the year/quarter due to the number of bars it has to calculate for those levels to populate is beyond the number of allowed bars. You can work around this by manually going to the daily chart and getting the yearly levels and drawing a horizontal line on your chart at the levels shown so that you still have those levels on your lower time frame charts. Unfortunately there is no way for us to work around this with code.
Each setting in the settings panel has a tooltip that will explain that specific setting so you understand how to use it. Just hover your mouse over the “i” icon and it will show a popup with the info. For the non-real time levels, the daily level settings will have the tooltips explaining everything and that info applies to all of the non-real time levels.
MODES
The indicator has two different modes you can use that will affect how the real time levels show up on your chart but will not affect the higher time frame levels. The default mode will give you static horizontal lines only. This means that when a high probability volume spike level comes in, a horizontal line will be drawn and will extend as long as the timeframe that the level is set to. For example a 60 minute volume spike time frame will extend the line for 60 minutes on the chart and then end. These lines will be drawn individually and will not update.
The second mode will give you variable lines and will show a color fill based on where price is in relation to all of the real time levels that are turned on. So if the price is above a level, it will color the background green and if the price is below a level, it will color the background red. This helps identify the trend of price compared to where the high probability volume spike levels came in so you can trade in the direction of the trend. With this mode, the lines for each time frame will update to the new level when a new volume spike for that time frame happens.
ALERTS
The indicator has alerts programmed for each different type of volume spike level that is available to add to your chart. So you can set an alert for when a new volume spike happens on any of the real time volume spike time frames, when price crosses the most recent real time volume spike level for each time frame, alert when any real time volume spike happens, alert when price crosses any of the higher time frame volume levels and also when price has crossed the upper or lower level of any of the important volume zones. Each alert is labeled the same as in the indicator settings so you can easily select which one you want.
For alerts to work properly, you have to have the levels turned on for whatever alerts you use. For example if you want an alert for Realtime 2 Volume Spikes, the Realtime 2 Volume Spike Levels must be turned on and shown on your chart.
Note that when using the alerts for price crossing a level, it will only alert when price crosses the most recent volume spike level. It will not alert when price crosses a previous level of the same time frame.
CUSTOMIZATION
You can customize nearly every feature of this indicator to tailor it to your specific trading style. Some of the customizable features are as follows: turn on or off labels for each time frame, turn on or off the color fills for important volume zones for each time frame, turn on or off the levels for each time frame, adjust the number of previous levels shown for each time frame, change the length of the lines for each time frame, extend the lines right for each time frame, change the color of the lines for each time frame, adjust the color fill colors for important volume zones, adjust the label colors and adjust the label offset length.
We also included some master settings to allow you to control various settings across all time frames with one click. These settings are as follows: turn on or off all labels, turn on or off all realtime levels, remove all lines except the most important volume zone on every time frame, turn on or off all color fills of important zones, adjust the background color fill of the trend coloring when set to variable lines and adjust the background color of all important zones.
There is also a feature that may need to be adjusted when you are looking at charts that do not have a lot of historical data. It will say the index is out of bounds, so look at the index number that the error shows by hovering over the red exclamation point next to the indicator name and adjust the setting labeled “Bar Index Threshold To Fix Errors” to a number that is slightly higher than the index number in the error message. This will fix the error by changing the calculations slightly to adjust for the bar indexes of that specific chart.
