Volume Aggression Monitor

This indicator helps identify buying and selling pressure (aggression) in real-time by analyzing how market participants are executing trades. It is composed of three main components:
🔍 What Does It Show?
🧭 1. The Thermometer (Above Candles)
🟢 Green Arrow (▲) → Buy Aggression: Buyers are lifting the ask.
🔴 Red Arrow (▼) → Sell Aggression: Sellers are hitting the bid.
⚪ Gray Square (■) → Neutral: No significant price movement or aggression.
💡 Neutral in this context means:
The price barely moved during the candle (open-close % change < direction_threshold, default 0.05%).
No clear buyer or seller dominance. It often appears during low volatility, equilibrium, or market indecision periods. This prevents noise and false directional readings due to random micro-movements.
📊 2. Percentage Panel
A table displaying recent trades or candle data (from a lower timeframe). Colored arrows indicate the direction of aggression (buy/sell). Shows volume, delta, and aggression %.
✅ Use it to:
Track clusters of buy/sell aggression. Spot momentum builds.
⏱️ 3. Cumulative Times & Sales Bar
A horizontal progress bar representing cumulative aggression.
Positive = Buy Aggression dominates.
Negative = Sell Aggression dominates.
📉 Even in sideways price movement, this bar shows who is winning the fight under the surface.

🧠 How to Use It:
🔹 Confirm Trades
Use the thermometer and aggression signals to confirm your strategy entries (e.g., breakouts, pullbacks, support/resistance).
🔹 Detect Dominance
Observe who is in control: buyers or sellers? Are they pressing or hesitating?
🔹 Filter Market Noise
The neutral state avoids misinterpreting small, meaningless movements as strong signals.
