OBV+OBV with an extra twist.
Add up to 4 moving averages and choose from simple, exponential, smoothed, etc.
Choose to display a trend fill. Fill will be green when above the MA4 or red when below it. If the difference between the MA1 and MA4 is growing, the trend fill will be a more solid color indicating a strengthening trend. If the gap is lessening, it will gradually get more transparent indicating a weakening trend.
Finally, options to display bullish and bearish regular and hidden divergences are included.
On Balance Volume (OBV)
On Balance Volume with candlesWhen it comes with On balance volume we have only line Indicator

So this indicator will help to identify what happening in On Balance Volume with Candle stick pattern
You can add SMA as well as EMA in code accourding to your strategy
Thank you
Position size FX and CryptoThis indicator I am using to calculate the position size to order for Forex and Crypto Future
Stochastic Spread AnalyzerA comparative version of the previously published Stochastic Structure Analyzer. It incorporates the 3-TF stochastics against both price and OBV values of the spread.
+ Breadth & Volumenote* If you've used my "+ Rate of Change Indicator", I am updating that without the OBV, which has been moved here. Just an FYI.
This "indicator" is basically a variety of indicators that measure volume, or accumulation/distribution. There's a bit of a story about how this came about but
it's not that interesting, so I'll spare you.
Indicators from which you may choose here are On Balance Volume (OBV), Money Flow Index (MFI), Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), Chaikin Oscillator, and Positive & Negative Net Volume.
I'll give a brief overview of these below, and if you want to educate yourself further on them you may. There are many web resources for that.
Most people are probably familiar with OBV. It's one of the more commonly used volume indicators, especially in the crypto crowd (at least amongst those traders I follow). It's basically a cumulative (doesn't oscillate around a midpoint) momentum indicator that measures volume of the current period versus volume of the previous period and adds it if price closed higher, but subtracts it if price closes lower. It's another way of using volume to confirm trend.
The MFI is a momentum indicator that measures the flow of money into and out of an asset over some period of time (user input). It's calculated using the RSI, so it can be used similarly to RSI (divergences, overbought, oversold, etc.), but of course unlike the RSI it's calculated primarily using volume and comparing the most recent candle close to the previous one (similar to OBV).
CMF is a volume-weighted average of accumulation and distribution over a some period of time (typically 21). It's a way of measuring accumulation versus
distribution in an asset, and oscillates around a zero line. You would use it similarly to any other oscillator, in that you can look for divergences, and general positive or negative momentum.
Chaikin Oscillator is basically a MACD (without signal line) of the accumulation and distribution index (or line--which is somehow different than simply accumulation and distribution). I haven't looked into these differences deeply, but if you look below at the calculations, and substituted 'ad' for 'accdist' you get very different readings. I actually did that, and what it looks like it would do is turn the actual Oscillator into a MACD signal line. So, by substituting 'ad' for 'accdist' (or the accumulation/distribution index) you produce a signal line of the Chaikin Oscillator.
Anyway, all that confusion out of the way, as I said, it's a MACD on the accumulation and distribution index, therefore it is another zero line oscillator, and similarly to CMF, it's a way of measuring price movements in the chart versus a/d. The zero line isn't just any old zero line, however, it is actually the accumulation distribution line. I've made an OBV version of this by substituting the OBV for AD, so if you prefer OBV maybe you will like that.
Pos. & Neg Net Volume is actually an indicator I had seen made by RafaelZioni. It basically takes net volume, calculates a cumulative of that, then subtracts a moving average of some period from the cumulative net volume in order to create a volume oscillator. Use it like the other oscillators!
Added Donchian Channels, moving averages, Bollinger Bands, colored everything, and alerts.
Enjoy!
Below I will post images with the different indicators, everything on default settings (except for lookback period, which I have adjusted to my personal preferences).
Above is an image with the MFI being compared to the RSI since they are very similar (MFI being basically a volume derivative of the RSI).
Chaikin Money Flow set to lookback of 13. You could probably extend that a bit if you wanted to smooth the line more.

On Balance Volume EMA TrendI have just taken the On Balance Volume and added an EMA with a little color to visualize the current trend.
OBV MA StrategyThe On Balance Volume + Moving Average Strategy
Parameters: 1H candles, ETHUSDT on BINANCEUS, commission percent uses Binance's maker/taker fees of 0.075%
Strategy: I create a 30 day moving average of the On Balance Volume "obvSma = ta.sma(ta.obv, 30)." Then I use the following buy conditions:
OBV crosses above the OBV moving average
The obv drops x% below the OBV moving average (buy a dip)
The OBV moving average is rising, the OBV is greater than the OBV moving average and the OBV is rising
The first buy condition is attempting to buy into an uptrend. When the OBV rises above the OBV moving average, people are buying and it's a good time to enter the trade.
The idea behind the second buy condition is to buy a dip so make sure you are careful to not set it too shallow or you'll end up buying the dip before the dip before the dip. :) I recommend 10% or more.
The third buy condition is there in case our trailing stop takes us out of a trade but the trend is still rising, we don't want to miss out on that profit so if the OBV is above the OBV moving average, the average is rising and the OBV is rising, we are likely in the middle of an uptrend and we should buy in.
CDC DivergencesA handy little indicator to help identify different kinds of convergences/divergences
The indicator compares price movements with the momentum and volume movements, Hidden divergences are left out, at least in the first version, because I wanted this indicator to be as simple as possible.
The divergences are shown with labels, user can change the momentum/volume indicator used to identify divergences in the settings.
OBV RSI TunTuneCombination of OBV and RSI.
Use as RSI like normal way. You can add another indicator as Bollinger Band for more power .
On Balance VolumeEnhanced the original OBV (On Balance Volume) indicator:
- Draw max lines of OBV in the last 30 candles so that we can notice the trend, as well as divergences easier.
- If you use fiat as base currency (USDT in cryptocurrency for example), we can display the OBV in fiat, so that we can compare total trading volume across a list of symbols to find healthy symbols to trade easier.
On-Balance Volume Oscillator with Divergence and PivotsThis is On-Balance Volume recalculated to be an Oscillator, a Divergence hunter was added, also Pivot Points and Alerts.
On-Balance Volume, or OBV is considered a "leading indicator" - in contrast to a "lagging indicator" just as Moving Averages it does not show a confirmation what already happened, but it shows what can happen in the future. For example: The chart is climbing while the OBV oscillator is slowly declining, gets weaker and weaker, maybe even prints bearish divergences? That means that a reversal might be occurring soon. Leading indicators are best paired with Stop and Resistance Lines, general Trendlines, Fib Retracements etc...Your chart is approaching a very important Resistance Trendline but the OBV shows a very positive signal? That means there is a high probability that the Resistance is going to be pushed though and becomes Support in the future.
What are those circles?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those triangles?
- These are Pivots. They show when the OBV oscillator might reverse, this is important to know because many times the price action follows this move.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
OBV + Simple Moving AverageThird time is a charm. On Balance Volume with simple moving average. Hopefully we don't get this kicked back to us.
On Balance Volume - Color Packed Patch'emOBV is provided as a built-in by TradingView.
This contribution grew out of reading about trend discovery, and since the library kept on this end was lacking in a volume-centric indicator, it looked like a good time to play around.
This approach isn't all that much different than many others with the possible exception of its color scheme.
Should you decide to use the script, it might be worth your while to work with the logic of color and line, to produce alerts.
Enjoy.
+ Rate of Change (and OBV)The Rate of Change, or RoC, is a momentum indicator that measures the percentage change in price between the current period and the price n periods ago. It oscillates above and below a zeroline, basically showing positive or negative momentum. I applied the OBV's calculation to it, but without the inclusion of volume (also added a lookback period) to see what would happen.
Actually what happened was I was looking at hot-rodding the OBV indicator, but then wondered if I could apply the cumulative calculation to another indicator to see what would happen. Not sure why I chose the Rate of Change, but it seemed a neat idea. And it worked! And so I called it the "Cumulative Rate of Change." I only recently realized that this is actually just the OBV without volume, HOWEVER the OBV does not have a lookback period, and its source is the close of each period. Basically, when you look at the calculation for the OBV you'll notice that it's a cumulative measure of the "change" of the closing price against the previous close times the volume. The Rate of Change is basically that measurement over more than one period, excluding the volume, and is not cumulative. Thus the "Cumulative Rate of Change" is basically an OBV without the volume but with the capability to adjust the lookback period.
Anyway, after days and weeks of playing with the indicator pretty infrequently I did decide that I actually really liked it, especially with the addition of moving averages and bollinger bands. So I decided to play with it a bit more.
I added a drop-down menu to include the standard Rate of Change indicator, and then thought I may as well add the OBV too, in case someone might like to compare that to the C-RoC, or just wants an OBV with myriad moving averages and bollinger bands.
By default I have the indicator set to the "C-RoC" and the lookback is set to 1, but play with longer settings (this is pretty much necessary if using the traditional RoC, which is by default set to 10 in TradingView, and is nigh on useless at 1).
I also recommend playing with the source. 'Close' is nice, but 'ohlc4' provides some very nice signals as well, as it follows the price flow for each period completely, filtering the noisiness of 'close' as source.
Hope you guys like this. With the bollinger bands and your preferred moving average settings this can be a powerful tool for re-entering trades in trend, taking profits, determining momentum swings.
Forex bot full strategy with risk managementThis is a full strategy designed for forex major pairs, specially EUR/USD using 1h time frame chart.
Its components are
200 EMA

For long = Previous histogram from MACD was below 0 and current one is above 0. CLose of a candle is above EMA 200 , OBV oscillator is negative and we have an uptrend from PSAR
For short = Previous histogram from MACD was above 0 and current one is below 0. CLose of a candle is below EMA 200 , OBV oscillator is positive and we have an downtrend from PSAR
Rules for exit
For tp and sl values we calculate the distance from the close of candle until the psar values.
If you have any questions, let me know !
Advanced VolumeThis simple indicator improves upon the built in volume indicator by adding the following:
-Option to use an EMA instead of SMA
-Advanced Coloring: Lighter bars show growing volume, darker bars show falling volume. Gray bars show very low relative volume (less than or equal to 50% of the moving average), while bars which have a highlighted background have a high relative volume( you can choose the threshold level, default is 2 times the RVOL).
Enjoy!
Cumulative Volume OscillatorCVO: Cumulative Volume Oscillator allows you to choose between 3 types of oscillators based on volume indicators:
-OBV (On Balance Volume)
-CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta)
-PVT (Price Volume Trend)
Being a volume based oscillator this indicator allows for the detection of divergences between price action and volume, ideal for predicting reversals.
As an oscillator you can choose the length of the fast & slow EMAs, and a signal line is provided for trend following.
Trigonometric On Balance Volume (OBV) OscillatorLove volume analysis but it's hard for you to implement a simple strategy by it?
Use OBV.
Is OBV still not quite as it should be for you to get it in your trading system?
Use OBV Oscillator.
Does OBV Oscillator give you too many false signals and when you smooth it, it lags by a ton?
Then this indicator is the answer to your problem.
Introducing the Trigonometric OBV Oscillator.
The Trigonometric OBV Oscillator or "Trig OBV" for short, uses an old, but uniquely extremely reliable mathematical formula to smooth the OBV, while eliminating more than 95% of its false signals (noises) and keeping with the real direction of the trend without introducing any lags.
It is very responsive, predictive even to some degree, very reliable, and keeps you out of false trades (like false breakouts, sudden changes in the price, etc).
To go long: wait until the white line crosses up the purple line and continues in that direction.
To go short: wait until the white line crosses down the blue line and continues in that direction.
To exit, do the opposite.
Better to be used with a baseline filter such as Kaufman's moving average.
Use it and let me know what you think about it.
OBV High / LOW (On-Balance Volume )This is a simple application of OBV indicator (On-Balance Volume ), to visually determine when a given stock current obv is near the highest or lowest based on the number of lookback bars.
Indicator examples:
### OBV value is near an all-time high ##
breakthrough , stock value could set new all-time highs.
rejection , stock value could come down or consolidate.
Example
Inputs
OBV High Lookback -> numbers of bars to look back for the obv high.
OBV LowLookback -> numbers of bars to look back for the obv low.
OBV EMA Length -> Ema length
Notes:
This script also comes with an ema indicator based on obv for smoothing the obv signal since it gets noise at lower timeframes (by default comes disabled)

On Balance Volume HLOC with AverageI am playing OBV now.
The original OBV is only calculate CLOSE.
I got an idea about XOBV with HLOC.
A bar has 5 periods:
- Open--Low--Open--Close--High--Close or
- Open--High--Open--Close--Low--Close
Assume that volume will evenly distributed on these 5 periods. Only Open--Close period has effective changed volume.
So XOBV = OBV * abs(close-open)/(2*(high-low)-abs(close-open)))
Better use XOBV and OBV both. Divergence and same price comparison are worth to watching.
Bollinger Bands OBVBB OBV is a Volume-based indicator that shows the balance and performance of the market.
Spots Support and Resistance levels within a growth/decline cycle.
Can be used for different Time Frames.
Length can be changed to a bigger number to adjust it to the smaller TF.
Structure AnalyzerA momentum indicator that uses the highest and lowest values for price in three different lookback lengths to find the performance relative to three timeframes.
- The yellow line is the product of the price performance in three different timeframes.
- The red line is 200 EMA of the performance.
- The blue columns represent the same calculation or the volume(OBV based).
- The aqua line is the 200 EMA of the volume performance.
How to use: Whenever the performance crosses above the 200 EMA, the price is in an uptrend.
Important: When in a downtrend, the performance will stay below the 200 EMA for a long time; hence it is important o wait until the crossover.
PRIME - R.o.c.M Ind. W/ TrendsThis experimental script is a variant of a model that allows a separate indicator window to be opened, revealing data for on balance volume, rsi, consumer commodity index and momentum indications. By use of the settings key, you can change the parameter of the source input as well as the desired lengths. After data compilation, the indicator will automatically draw any trend lines applicable to what is presented. The additional code is an attempt to allow the system to apply pivot points for alerts within the indicator itself.
