The On Balance Volume & Accumulation Distribution RibbonMedic trades using "Smart Money Concepts", and Medic's system revolves around the one taught by MentFX (i.e. Structure, Supply/ Demand Zone , and Confirmation). While this system per se doesn't require the use of a volume indicator, Medic has come to respect the OBV and Accumulation / Distribution .
The OBV Ribbon is available in many a shape and form, but Medic wanted something more responsive, and the OBVAD is just that.
This ribbon works across all time frames, and allows users to visualize what is happening behind the scenes of The Trigger indicator.
The Ribbon applies 11 DEMA of different periods to the cumulative sum of SpaceTrader's OBV/AD formula: volume*(close-open)/( high-low )*hlc3.
The Ribbon is able to identify the general trend, and changes into a blu ein an uptrend, and purple in a downtrend, and also potential reversals by means of divergences.
On Balance Volume (OBV)
On Balance Volume Scaled - OBV ScaledThe main idea of this oscillator is to place the OBV oscillator and its oscillation around the range of 0 and around -50 to +50 and for this scaling of the "On Balance Volume" oscillator, I have used Min-max normalization.
Since this oscillator does not have a specific minimum and maximum, just setting the maximum and minimum does not seem the best thing to do. As in this case, we will constantly observe sudden changes and we will have problems such as volatility. On the one hand, we will constantly deal with sudden changes and problems such as volatility. Also on the other hand, the continuous collisions of the high/low(+50 & -50) and index and returning from that is another thing that we are going to deal with.
Therefore, to solve these problems and create more flexible maximum and minimum ranges, another similar method has been used. Choosing the maximum of our normalization to the size of the moving average of 100 candles of the index maximum and choosing the minimum of normalization to the size of the moving average of 100 candles of the minimums of the OBV index, and then normalizing the OBV index with the Min-max method with those ranges, is the recommended method ,which has been used to eliminate problems. In this case, we will not have any problem hitting 50 and returning or hitting -50 and returning. Also, our scaled OBV index will have the ability to touch and cross 50 and -50 and can fluctuate without problems.
On Balance Volume CrossoversCheck on balance volume but with crossover. You can choose the smoothing method, which is set by default to use the Volume Weighted Moving Average (bringing volume to the equation is always a good idea) but you can change to SMA, MA, EMA, ...
Hope you guys enjoy it and don't forget to rate it up! :)
I plan to include % from 0-100 OBV in here later! Stay tuned.
Feedback is cool.
Custom OBV OscillatorThis is a modified OBV indicator that creates an oscillator by smoothing the difference between the value of the OBV and a short moving average of the OBV. SMAs of the oscillator are also provided to study crosses and convergence/divergence.
The indicator should mostly be used on common stock, but works on futures contracts with some tuning and a shorter timeframe.
GIRISH indicatorHello traders,
This indicator is the enhancement to my previous indicator (RSI+OBV). There is combined RSI and OBV with DMI. This new indicator is combination of RSI and OBV with VWAP . I have been using this indicator for intraday trades in NIFTY & BANKNIFTY .
The white line indicates the movement of VWAP wrt current price. There default range for this has been defined as -40 to 40 .
Entry for long: When white line goes below -40, we need to wait for green background. Entry has to be taken when green background appears. If price goes below the entry point, averaging can be done once. Price will surely go long and give us good profit.
Entry for short: When white line goes above 40 , we need to wait for red background (if darker red comes, it is better) . Entry has to be taken when red background appears. If price goes above the entry point, averaging can be done once. Price will surely go down and give us good profit on short side.
PS: Please do back testing in chart before taking trades.
Cheat Code's RedemptionWELCOME TO THE CHEAT CODE REDEMPTION PACK!!!!
I want to take a deep dive into what this indicator consists of and how you can use it to improve your trading strategy.
-What does the CCR consist of?
The Oscillator:
The oscillator is a combination of a true strength index sampled from on-balance volume and a regular RSI at default settings. The reason I added the on-balance volume is that it does not tend to remain at overbought or oversold conditions as traditional momentum oscillators do.
The Histogram:
The histogram is copied to a tee from the MACD histogram, the only difference here is that I extended the moving averages to depict a special pairing; the ema55 slow and ema21 fast. I then converted it into another true strength index, as the calculations fit all time frames.
The Divergences:
The divergences of an indicator can be extremely useful in catching scalp opportunities, a DARK RED/GREEN represents a REGULAR divergence, while a SALMON/LIGHT GREEN color represents a HIDDEN divergence.
The moving average:
The moving average built into this indicator is depicted as an aqua or yellow line, when the oscillator is moving in an uptrend, the moving average will appear aqua, when the oscillator is in a downtrend it will appear yellow. Use this as confirmation bias or as the third derivative of market position.
Oscillator Colors:
The Oscillator color is an important thesis of this indicator. When the line is green, it means the market is effectively in an uptrend, when it is red, it means the market is in a downtrend. Use this to prevent longing in a serious downtrend and vice versa.
If you have any questions regarding the indicator(s), feel free to reach out to me in the comments or through Direct Message!!!

Multi-Indicator Divergence ScreenerHere is a new screener for everyone.
I have applied my Better Divergence On Any Indicator logic to scan 3 different indicators and up to 6 different assets at one time. Shoutout to LonesomeTheBlue and QuantNomad for their respective work on divergence and scanner scripts. I've implemented similar logic to put together this scanner.
So far, I have added support for RSI, OBV, MACD, MFI, Stochastic, and FSR, though I'm happy to add more by request. Please note, for simplicity, I have removed the logic to filter for only overbought/oversold divergences. Because this can scan both centered oscillators and non-centered indicators, overbought/oversold does not apply to all of them. I may try to find a way to work in back in later, as time allows.
Personally, I like to find confluences different types of indicators. For instance, agreeable divergence with a centered strength oscillator like RSI and a volume based indicator like OBV gives me more confidence that there will be follow-through.
Like in the Better Divergence script, you can opt to scan for confirmed divergences, potential divergences, or both.
You have the option to show or hide a table that will tell you exactly which assets have divergence, on which indicator they were found, and how many points of divergence were identified. By default, bull divergences will be green, bear will be red, but you can change these base colors to your liking. Confirmed divergences are shown with a solid background, while potentials (if selected) are shown with transparent background. If all 3 of your chosen indicators have divergence in the same direction, the asset name will show in the bull or bear color to highlight the confluence.
Alerts have also been set up to fire on bar close. The message will essentially tell you the same thing the table does, but in condensed format.
You can choose to have alerts fire any time there is any divergence detected across all assets, only when there are divergences on at least 2 of the chosen indicators for a given asset, or limit them to only when all 3 indicators show divergence in agreement.
JSS: On Balance Volume//Date: 11-Oct-22
//Author: Jatinder Sodhi
OBV Indicator with colour coding.
Blue - Long
Red - Short
Best used for Intraday on 5 minute charts. Works well on other timeframes as well.
@Inspired by Asit Baran's RankDelta:OBV Indicator
//Not an exact replica as I have found one line correctly ema(obv,21)
//Whereas second line ema(obv,5) corresponds closely with Asit's indicator values but not exact.
//Advisable to use along with my RSI indicator based on Asit Baran's RankDelta:RSI indicator.
RSI+OBVthis strategy works on the basis of crossovers of RSI at different period and OBV at different periods (separately). I am using it for Nifty and Bank Nifty. Entry for long can be taken when green bar appears; and exit has to be done when it disappears. Entry for short has to be taken when red bar appears; and exit has to be done when it disappears.
With little help from price action good results can be achieved.
Moving Average Convergence Divergence On Alter OBVOBV:
The OBV is perfect indicator to understand the strength of the particular stock. As the strength increase, the trend of the stock goes high along with price. But, the OBV is considered only with close of previous close which is to make sure the double confirmation on the price to accumulate the volume.
Altered OBV:
So, here is the altered OBV, which basically consider the close of previous close and also buying interested of the day when close is higher than open.
MACD:
I always admire the magic of MACD with pre-defined timeframe. Now, this MACD applied on top of altered OBV to signal us the moving of the ticker strength.
I hope the another MACDAltOBV would help on your swing trading strategy.
Happy Investing.
On Balance Volume DeviationThe objective of this indicator is to be a leading indicator that can detect a large price change before it happens. It is based on the On Balance Volume (OBV) indicator, which is a leading indicator based on the premise that a large change in volume often precedes a large price change. This indicator charts the N-Period deviation of the OBV data and displays it as a histogram. This is overlayed on an area chart of the M-Period SMA of the histogram data. This combination helps to visually enhance the pattern that signifies that a jump in price is about to happen.
Useage:
When the histogram bars are above the area plot, then a jump in price is about to happen
As with all leading indicators, there are a lot of false signals. Confirm with price action or another indicator
The further the histogram bars are above the area plot, the larger the predicted jump in price
It seems to work better on shorter intraday timeframes than on the longer timeframes
At the close of a market session, it is a good indicator of how much the price will jump on the opening of the next market session.
OBV CSI [mado]This Indicator shows you the strength of the Currency based OBV RSI.
If the Currency label is on the top, it is strong, if it is on the bottom, it is weak

I use 1 chart just for OBV CSI :)
Stochastic Slow and OBV Percent Oscillator
Purpose - Stochastic is the best momentum indicator and On Balance Volume (OBV) is the best volume indicator. Why not combine both to come up with a more sophisticated oscillator?
How It's Done - I had to put OBV as an oscillator (returning values between 0 and 100) in order to put it in the same pane with the slow stochastic oscillator. Otherwise, their synergy won't be that great. So, I have decided to visualize OBV as a percentage relative to selected period's high and low value. That way, I can keep the OBV value to stay within boundary.
Interpretation
1. Dot color indicates the whether the stochastic K/OBV is over or below the stochastic D/Signal line.
2. When Stoch and OBV are moving in the same direction and are close together (on top of each other), this indicates a strong trend
3. When Stoch crosses up or down the OBV oscillator, it may indicate a trend reversal
OBV with Volume/Momentum DivergenceCredits go to vyperphi696 and LazyBear for the original OBV with Divergence script.
This indicator has the new option to check for momentum divergence, which I have done by adding RSI and MACD data.
Hence the indicator allows combined testing of volume and momentum divergence. This feature aims to improve trend reversal detection by reducing false positives.
In summary, 3 divergence categories are shown by default as lines:
Volume + RSI + MACD (dark green/red)
Volume + RSI / Volume + MACD (light green/red)
Volume (gray)
Line colors can be adjusted via plot settings. Therefore it is also possible to distinguish Volume + RSI and Volume + MACD divergence if necessary.
Lastly, I edited the indicator scaling mechanism when changing from one timeframe to another; the transitions are smoother now. This only applies when auto-scaling is off.
Intrabar On Balance VolumeAn experimental modification of TradingView's built-in OBV indicator that calculates its value with intrabar data.
This leads to a more accurate OBV trace because it considers the price swings that happen within the time period of each candle, instead of only considering the candle close price.
For example: on a 4H timeframe a single candle spans 4 hours. In this indicator the OBV is calculated with 1-minute intrabar data, leading to a resolution of 240 intrabars per 4H candle (that is, it considers the volume and price swings that happened at each minute of those 4 hours).
Anchored OBVThe On Balance Volume indicator (OBV) is used in technical analysis to measure buying and selling pressure.
It is a cumulative indicator meaning that on days where price went up, that day's volume is added to the cumulative OBV total.
If price went down, then that day's volume is subtracted from the OBV total.
The OBV value is then plotted as a line for easy interpretation.
On Balance Volume is primarily used to confirm or identify overall price trends or to anticipate price movements after divergences.
If On Balance Volume crosses over or under the zero line, it adds confluence to a bull/bear bias respectively.
Anchored On Balance Volume unlike traditional OBV, resets on your specified date and/or bar (clickable).
On Balance Volume Trend© 2022, CryptoNaut1000
An extension to "On Balance Volume Momentum (OBV Momentum)".
"OBV Trend" is a trend strength indicator, that can be used to identify strong trends and also trend changes based on volume.
High positive values indicate strong volume on the buy side, high negative values indicate strong volume on the sell side.
An increasing OBV trend indicates a strengthening buy trend or a weakening sell trend,
decreasing OBV trend indicates a strengthening sell trend or weakening buy trend.
OBV trend is calculated by plotting a short vs. a long moving average and filling the difference in volume.
OBV trend metric is absolute volume.
[blackcat] L1 OBV-MFI ComboLevel 1
Background
As requested, this is a combo of OBV and MFI indicators
Function
On-balance volume (OBV) is a technical trading momentum indicator that uses volume flow to predict changes in stock price. Joseph Granville first developed the OBV metric in the 1963 book Granville's New Key to Stock Market Profits.
The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a technical oscillator that uses price and volume data for identifying overbought or oversold signals in an asset. It can also be used to spot divergences which warn of a trend change in price. The oscillator moves between 0 and 100.
The combo of them is still an oscillator.
Remarks
Feedbacks are appreciated.
Chaikin Volume AccumulatorThe Volume Accumulator is used in technical analysis to identify strengths and weaknesses in a market. It is derived from the On Balance Volume indicator, except that instead of giving all the volume to bears on red days and bulls on green days it gives a proportional amount to both depending on the relative close price. As with many trading indicators, classic divergence between the VA and the close price may indicate an incoming reversal.
As a general rule of thumb:
Price Up:
VA up = clear uptrend
VA sideways = moderate uptrend
VA down = weak uptrend
Price Sideways:
VA up = accumulation
VA sideways = no bias
VA down = distribution
Price Down
VA up = weak downtrend
VA sideways = moderate downtrend
VA down = strong downtrend
OBV Overbuy+sell Oscillator[RSU]On-balance volume (OBV) is a technical trading momentum indicator that uses volume flow to predict changes in stock price. Joseph Granville first developed the OBV metric in the 1963 book Granville's New Key to Stock Market Profits.
This indicator is based on the OBV indicator and adds 2 times the standard deviation Bollinger Band to evaluate the overbought and oversold phenomenon of the OBV indicator.
The characteristics of Bollinger Bands: According to the normal distribution phenomenon, only 5% of the cases will exceed 2 times the standard deviation of the Bollinger Bands . So when it exceeds, I use colors to mark red overbought and green oversold situations.
Usage:
1.Identify trends: Identify current stock trends by OBV's 30 average line color.
2.Breakthrough:OBV Breakthrough 30 average,signal trend may reversal.
3.Oversell and overbuy:A break below overbuy could signal a temporary end to the uptrend.
4.Divergence:When the slope of the two highs is opposite to the slope of the two highs of the indicator, a trend reversal signal may occur.
FaustFaust is a composite indicator that combines 3 volume indicators: TSV, OBV, and PVT.
TSV moving average is plotted as an oscillator. OBV and PVT are calculated internally.
Four divergences are calculated for each indicator (regular bearish, regular bullish, hidden bearish, and hidden bullish) with three look-back periods (high, mid, and small).
For TSV, the fattest plotted line is the divergence with the highest look-back period, and the thinnest line is the divergence with the shortest look-back period.
For PVT, the larger the circle, the higher the divergence look-back period.
For OBV, the larger the triangle, the higher the divergence look-back period.

OBV+EMA HistogramHistogram of the difference between On Balance Volume and an EMA of the On Balance Volume (OBV + EMA).
Using a 55 EMA, on the daily timeframe of BTC, bull/bear trends occur when the histogram is above/below the zero line respectively.
Divergences also have a notable effect.
-- Added alert conditions when OBV crosses EMA to signal a possible trend change, for bullish and bearish cases.
