Volume-Based Reversal and Breakout [The_lurker]Indicator Overview:
The "Volume-Based Reversal and Breakout Indicator" is designed for use on the TradingView platform. Its primary function is to identify potential reversal candles using volume and price criteria and to mark significant breakout points. This tool is particularly valuable for traders who incorporate reversal patterns and volume analysis in their trading strategies.
Detailed Functionality:
Customizable Label Color:
Traders can choose the color of the labels that mark breakout points, allowing for personalization and better visibility on different chart backgrounds.
Volume Multiplier Input:
Users can set a 'Volume Multiplier' to define what constitutes significant trading volume. This multiplier is used to compare the current candle's volume with that of the previous candle. A higher volume on the current candle, as defined by this multiplier, is indicative of a significant trading activity.
Reversal Candle Criteria:
The script identifies a candle as a reversal candle if it meets the following conditions:
The closing price of the candle is lower than its opening price, indicating a bearish sentiment.
The trading volume of the candle is greater than the product of the previous candle's volume and the user-set volume multiplier. This implies increased trading activity during the formation of this candle.
The length of the candle's lower tail is greater than its body, suggesting a rejection of lower prices and potential bullish sentiment building up.
Breakout Identification and Marking:
Upon detecting a reversal candle, the indicator draws lines at the high and low of this candle.
These lines represent potential breakout levels. A breakout is confirmed if the price crosses above the high (indicating a bullish breakout) or below the low (indicating a bearish breakout) of the reversal candle.
When a breakout occurs, the indicator places an arrow marker at the breakout point. The direction of the arrow (upwards or downwards) and its color (customizable by the user) indicate the nature of the breakout.
Breakout Alerts:
The indicator includes an alert condition that notifies traders when a breakout occurs. This feature helps traders to quickly react to potential trading opportunities.
Practical Application:
The indicator is best used in markets with distinct volume patterns, as volume is a key component of its analysis.
It can be combined with other technical analysis tools, such as trend lines or moving averages, for additional confirmation of trading signals.
Traders should consider adjusting the volume multiplier based on the typical volume characteristics of the specific asset they are analyzing.
Conclusion:
This "Volume-Based Reversal and Breakout Indicator" is a robust tool that aids traders in identifying potential reversals and breakouts with an emphasis on volume analysis. It's customizable and alert-enabled features make it a versatile addition to a trader's toolkit, suitable for various trading styles and market conditions.

Volume Profile with a few polylinesThe base of "Volume Profile with a few polylines" is another script of mine, Volume Profile (Maps) .
The structure of maps is used to gather the data. However, the drawings is done with polylines.
This enables coders to draw an entire volume profile with just a few polylines, while the range is broader.
This results in the benefit to draw more "lines" than with line.new() / box.new() alone.
🔶 CONCEPTS
🔹 Polylines
polyline.new creates a new polyline instance and displays it on the chart, sequentially connecting all of the points in the `points` array with line segments.
The segments in the drawing can be straight or curved depending on the `curved` parameter.
In this script, points are connected, starting from the bottom. The created line moves up until there is a price level where a volume value needs to be displayed,
at which the line goes to the left to the concerning volume value, coming back at the same price level until the line returns to its initial x-axis,
after which the line will continue to rise until all values are displayed.
A polyline can contain maximum 10000 points (10K).
Since the line has to go back and forth, each price/volume line takes 3 points.
In the case that 20K bars all have a different price, we would need 60K points, or just 6 polylines. A maximum of 100 polylines can be displayed.
The 3 highest volume values are displayed with line.new(), each with their own colour.
🔹 Maps
A map object is a collection that consists of key - value pairs
Each key is unique and can only appear once. When adding a new value with a key that the map already contains, that value replaces the old value associated with the key .
You can change the value of a particular key though, for example adding volume (value) at the same price (key), the latter technique is used in this script.
Volume is added to the map, associated with a particular price (default close, can be set at high, low, open,...)
When the map already contains the same price (key), the value (volume) is added to the existing volume at the associated price.
A map can contain maximum 50K values, which is more than enough to hold 20K bars (Basic 5K - Premium plan 20K), so the whole history can be put into a map.
🔹 Rounding function
This publication contains 2 round functions, which can be used to widen the Volume Profile
Round
• "Round" set at zero -> nothing changes to the source number
• "Round" set below zero -> x digit(s) after the decimal point, starting from the right side, and rounded.
• "Round" set above zero -> x digit(s) before the decimal point, starting from the right side, and rounded.
Example: 123456.789
0->123456.789
1->123456.79
2->123456.8
3->123457
-1->123460
-2->123500
Step
Another option is custom steps.
After setting "Round" to "Step", choose the desired steps in price,
Examples
• 2 -> 1234.00, 1236.00, 1238.00, 1240.00
• 5 -> 1230.00, 1235.00, 1240.00, 1245.00
• 100 -> 1200.00, 1300.00, 1400.00, 1500.00
• 0.05 -> 1234.00, 1234.05, 1234.10, 1234.15
•••
🔶 FEATURES
🔹 Volume * currency
Let's take as example BTCUSD, relative to USD, 10 volume at a price of 100 BTCUSD will be very different than 10 volume at a price of 30000 (1K vs. 300K)
If you want volume to be associated with USD, enable Volume * currency . Volume will then be multiplied by the price:
• 10 volume, 1 BTC = 100 -> 1000
• 10 volume, 1 BTC = 30K -> 300K
Polylines has the attributes curved & closed.
When "curved" is enabled the drawing will connect all points from the `points` array using curved line segments.
When "closed" is enabled the drawing will also connect the first point to the last point from the `points` array, resulting in a closed polyline.
They are default disabled, but can be enabled:
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Put
When the map doesn't contain a price, it will be added, using map.put(id, key, value)
In our code:
map.put(originalMap, price, volume)
or
originalMap.put(price, volume)
A key (price) is now associated with a value (volume) -> key : value
Since all keys are unique, we don't have to know its position to extract the value, we just need to know the key -> map.get(id, key)
We use map.get() when a certain key already exists in the map, and we want to add volume with that value.
if originalMap.contains(price)
originalMap.put(price, originalMap.get(price) + volume)
-> At the last bar, all prices (source) are now associated with volume.
🔶 SETTINGS
Source : Set source of choice; default close , can be set as high , low , open , ...
Volume & currency : Enable to multiply volume with price (see Features )
Amount of bars : Set amount of bars which you want to include in the Volume Profile
🔹 Round -> ' Round/Step '
Round -> see Concepts
Step -> see Concepts
🔹 Display Volume Profile
Offset: shifts the Volume Profile (max. 500 bars to the right of last bar, see Features )
Max width Volume Profile: largest volume will be x bars wide, the rest is displayed as a ratio against largest volume (see Features )
Colours
Curved: make lines curved
Closed: connect last with first point
🔶 LIMITATIONS
• Lines won't go further than first bar (coded).
• The Volume Profile can be placed maximum 500 bar to the right of last price.
Moving Average of Volume for Up and Down ClosesThis indicator is intended to provide market bias information at a glance. Depending on the number of periods selected it can help identify changes in buying and selling sentiment or overall market bias. The two lines indicate increases and decreases in volumes for the selected number of periods. I recommend using this indicator with a minimum of clear support and resistance lines and a standard volume indicator. It does provided useful information as a stand-alone indicator. I don't use any indicators except volume, so this was meant to be my own personal volume analysis tool, however I feel that it can be very useful for other traders who may not have a deep understanding of volume analysis.
Volume-Weighted Supertrend Strategy [wbburgin]This is a script that can be used as a strategy or a standalone indicator.
The Volume-Weighted Supertrend is a supertrend based on a rolling VWAP, instead of a normal price source. The strategy has two components - a supertrend based off of this VWAP (shown on the chart) and a supertrend from volume itself (not plotted on the chart directly). The supertrend from volume is an example of my "Supertrend Any Source" indicator, where a custom ATR is created from non-OHLC data; this is available as both a separate public script and also in my "wbburgin_utils" library for you to use in your own script creation.
The supertrend from volume acts as a confirmation filter for the VWAP-supertrend shown on-chart. If the volume supertrend is trending up and the VWAP-based supertrend is also trending up, a buy signal is generated. Likewise, if the volume supertrend is trending down and the VWAP-supertrend is trending down, a sell signal is generated. The colors are based off of whether both supertrends are trending up or down: green for both up, blue for only price up, orange for only price down, and red for both down.
The settings enable you to change the volume length and the ATR length separately, as well as the multiplier and the source for the price supertrend. If you load the indicator for the first time and see no entries and exits, this is because "Show Strategy Entries and Exits" is disabled in the settings. This is if you plan on using the strategy as an indicator and don't want to be bothered by the entry and exit symbols on the chart. Additionally, for those who like clean charts (like me), you can turn all the labels off in the settings, as well as the highlighting.
My default strategy settings for the strategy results shown below are as follows: 5% equity per trade, 5 degrees of pyramiding, commissions of 0.08% per trade. This strategy doesn't come with stops yet, so please be aware of that before using it to trade - I highly suggest you create your own stops based off of your R/R ratio and personal risk tolerance. Additionally, it works best on trending assets (b/c of the supertrends) with high volume. This might mean it does not work as well on lower timeframes.
Leveraged Share VolumeHello everyone,
Did this quick reference indicator and figured I would share it as nothing like it exists that I could find.
What this does is it pulls leveraged share data and displays the bull share and bear share volume.
There are 5 pre-programmed shares. These include:
SPY
Pulls bull share data from: SPXL and UPRO
Pulls bear share data from: SPXU and SPXS
IWM
Pulls bull share data from: TNA
Pulls bear share data from: TZA
DIA
Pulls bull share data from: UDOW
Pulls bear share data from: SDOW
QQQ
Pulls bull share data from: TQQQ
Pulls bear share data from: SQQQ
XLE
Pulls bull share data from: ERX
Pulls bear share data from: ERY
As there continues to be more leveraged shares available (for example, AAPU, APPD, MSFT, TSLA, etc.) there is also the option to use these manual tickers as these shares become available. The image below shows the data input screen:
The indicator will default to show the data as a ratio. The ratio is calculated by the total bear shares over the total bull shares (sell to buy ratio). If you unselect the Ratio option (displayed in the image above), it will show the raw volume.
When data is displayed as a ratio, you will see the white SMA line. This will show you the average ratio over a 14 period lookback. This is customizeable under the SMA Length input (shown in the image above).
Indicator's purpose:
The aim of the indicator is to provide context as to where the current sentiment is. Its similar in concept to a put to call ratio. The idea is, the more bearish people are, the more inverse shares are being bought, the higher the ratio or raw volume for bear shares and vice versa for bullish situations.
If you would like some more contextual information about the powers of tracking this type of data for trading purposes, you can check out this idea I published about the relationship between leveraged shares and market sentiment/behaviour:
Otherwise, the indicator is pretty straight forward!
Its not meant to be anything but a reference indicator to help give you context of the current market positioning.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to leave them below.
Thank you for reading and checking out the indicator!
Safe trades everyone!
Buyer to Seller Volume (BSV) Indicator As promised, here is the buyer to seller volume indicator!
About it/How it works:
The indicator tracks buying and selling volume. It does it simplistically but effectively simply by looking at red vs green candles and averaging out the volume of each respective candle.
It uses the SMA of buying/selling and overall volume to track buyers to sellers and also display the average volume traded over a designated period of time.
Legend:
Green lines = buying volume
Red lines = selling volume
Yellow lines = SMA over designated period of time (user input defined, default is 14 candles).
Buyers are shown in green and sellers are shown in red:
How to Use it:
Default, the indicator goes to 1 Day, 14 candle period.
My preference personally is to use to have it go to "chart" but you can view any time period on the chart that you want and designate the time period of volume you want to view independently.
This can be used for:
1. Identify trends: When buying or selling volume is above selling volume and above the SMA, you know that this persuasively supports a bullish trend. Inverse for the opposite (see below):
2. To identify fakeouts and whether there is volume backing a move:
3. To identify potential changes in trends via a cross:
Its also a great reference when you are unsure of a move. This indicator literally just saved me from wrongfully shorting the FOMC bear flag today:
Probably many other uses you can find, but these are the things I like to use it for!
As always, I have posted a tutorial video for your reference:
As always though, if you have any questions, comments or suggestions for the indicator, please share them below!
Safe trades and best of luck to all!
Buying Selling Volume v3Bug fixed from v2. Currently adds up values correctly.
Note: To get more accurate readings reduce the time frame. For some reason it isn't counting the last bar and I am not smart enough to figure out why.
Builds on Ceyhun's "Buying Selling Volume" indicator. This version allows users to define periods by effortlessly dragging two points or you may define periods by manually entering the start and end times in the settings window. Once the period is defined, both buying and selling volume will be totaled thus displaying the amount of buys and sells in that period.
I have found the information provided from the script helps in defining a period of consolidation as either being accumulative or distributive.
Nasdaq or US Composite Total VolumeBecause no NASDAQ composite index or NYSE composite index provide data volume, this script intends to use the NASDAQ Composite total volume index, index ticker : TVOLQ, or the NYSE Composite total volume index, index ticker : TVOL, as a classical volume indicator on chart.
How tu use : in the input tab choose youe prefered SMA lenght and the volume' index ticker you want to display. TVOLQ for the NASDAQ Composite total volume or TVOL for the NYSE Composite total volume.
On chart, choose to display the indicator in a new pane.
Daily Short VolumeThis is a script to utilize Quandl (Now Nasdaq Data Link) FINRA Short Volume datasets to see daily volume proportions by short / long activity.
For clarity, long volume does not indicate buying or selling, just that some volume for the day was either buying-to-open or selling-to-close.
Similar but opposite, short volume indicates that some volume for the day was either selling-to-open or buying-to-close.
The decimal value indicates the proportion of Long to Short volume. Example, 0.40 green / 0.60 red would indicate 40% long volume / 60% short volume for that day.
We can take that information as well as the overall outcome of the days session to get an idea for who was drove the market direction for the day.
The four clear outcomes that we can look for are:
If the volume was mostly long (a mostly green bar in the indicator) than an up day would indicate position holders added to long positions.
If the volume was mostly long (a mostly green bar in the indicator) than a down day would indicate position holders reduced from long positions.
If the volume was mostly short (a mostly red bar in the indicator) than a down day would indicate position holders sold short and added to short positions.
If the volume was mostly short (a mostly red bar in the indicator) than an up day would indicate position holders bought to cover long positions.
Those are the clearest possible cases but far more likely the volume will be muddled between short and long making interpreting the net outcome of the day far more difficult.
Unfortunately this data is only published at a daily resolution by FINRA and is usually available at the end of the trading day approximately 3-4 hours following market close.
Please reach out with any questions, suggestions, or recommendations on how to improve this indicator.
Best,
Zero
.b BTC-Exchange volumeBINANCE:BTCUSDT
It's tool to check exchange trading status.
You can see "BTC-exchange's realtime trading volume, previous closed volume" at once.
You can switch to see 'Previous close volume' on script's panel.
Timeframe recommended ; 15m, 1H, 4H, D, W, whatever.
Each exchange may have a different volume display unit, so I converted it into roughly BTC units. (using hl2 price)
This indicator aims to recognize the difference in the trading volume of the exchange at once.
It's not for the purpose of check the exact trading volume.
All data come from tradingview.
The comparison target exchanges refer to the ranking of CoinMarketCap.
if you have any questions freely contact to me by message on tradingview, or telegram @sr_bt
but please understand that responses may be quite late.
Ranged Volume Study - R3c0nTraderCredits:
Thank you "EvoCrypto" for granting me permission to use "Ranged Volume" to create this version of it.
What is this and What does this do?
This study shows the ranged volume, and it can be used to produce buy signals for a 3Commas bot.
What’s different about this script?
I added code so that negative volume has its own color settings and lower opacity than the positive volume.
I changed the color scheme from Yellow, Red, Green, and Black to Yellow, Red, Light Blue, and Dark Blue.
How to Use
1. On the “Inputs” tab:
a. Set your “Volume Range Length” (number of bars to look back)
b. “Heikin Ashi” – Usually I leave this enabled. Make sure this matches what you have in your strategy!
c. “Show Bar Colors” – Leave disabled. Let the Strategy script color the bars in the price chart.
d. “Show Break-Out” – Leave enabled. Highlights the volume breakout in yellow and breakdowns in red.
e. “Show Range” – Leave enabled
[blackcat] L1 Markos Katsanos Volume Flow IndicatorLevel 1
Background
Markos Katsanos’ volume flow indicator (VFI) calculation uses a default period of 130 days for daily charts. As a result, when applying the strategy, you will need to set the maximum number of bars the study will reference in the general tab of properties for all to at least 130. In order to compare the system objectively with the buy & hold results, he specified a trade size as a percent of equity.
Function
For more information see Markos Katsanos's articles in the June 2004 and July 2004 issues of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine. Period=days for VFI calculation. Default values are 130 for daily and 26 for weekly charts.Coef=coefficient for minimal price cut-of (use 0.2 for daily and 0.1 for intraday 5-15 min data) Vcoef=coefficient for volume cut-off (use 2.5 for daily and 3.5 for intraday charts)
Remarks
This is a Level 1 free and open source indicator.
Feedbacks are appreciated.

Current bar predicted volumeDrag this indicator in the same panel with the volume in the object tree, then right click on the scale bar and set "merge all scale into one" for a correct visualization.
This indicator multiply the current traded volume of a candle with the total time of that candle. This offer a prediction of where, in case the volumes would keep trading at a comparable magnitude, the volume bar would close when the candle will close.
The predicted volume is indicated with a blue short line above the current volume bar, and updates in real time.
I find this indicator extremely useful to offer at a glance an idea of an ascending or descending volume pattern, that can serve as confirmation for a reversal or breakout for example.
Very suitable for short time frames, where decisions have to be taken fast.
Enjoy,
Luca.
BarRange vs VolumeThis is a volume spread analysis/ breadth type indicator.
Compares average bar size to the average volume. Looks for small bar and high volume.
Performante's Average Ethereum Volume Indicator EMAThis indicator takes the volume from the biggest exchanges and plots the average volume. Exchanges incorporated in this average include Bitfinex, Coinbase, Bitstamp, Bitmex, Kraken, Binance, Bithumb, Flyer, OkEx, and CEX. The chart also has two Exponential Moving Averages (9-candle EMA & 21-candle EMA) added onto the volume pane to better understand relative volume. Thank you Julio and Mitch for this indicator
Advanced Volume ProfileTHIS SCRIPT CURRENTLY ONLY WORKS FOR ASSETS THAT TRADE 24/7 OR CBOE FUTURES HOURS!
This script plots volume relative to an asset's historical volume profile.
Usage:
As a companion to my "Unusual Time Frame Volume" (UTF Volume) script, this plots volume against the same historical volume profile used for UTF Volume.
The same high volume (relative to historical) threshold alert is available (yellow bar).
Likewise, if the volume exceeds the historical threshold, but is below the alert threshold, the bar color is orange.
At the top of the chart is an indicator which is green if a bar has higher volume than the previous bar.
You can also set a threshold for this such that if the volume of a bar exceeds the previous bar by a certain multiplier which will turn the indicator yellow.
For example, if the threshold is set to "1.5", then the indicator will be yellow (instead of green) on an increase in volume over the previous bar of 1.5x.
NOTES:
Again, this script currently only works for assets that trade 24/7 or CBOE Futures hours!
Make sure you set the "Asset Mode" and "Time Frame (minutes)" to values that match your asset and chart setting.
For example, if you are trading Futures on a 2m chart, set the Asset Mode to Futures and Time Frame to 2m.
If you are trading crypto on a 5m chart, set the Asset Mode to 24/7 and Time Frame to 5m.
If the settings are not set appropriately, the output will be incorrect/invalid.
If you choose a "Look-back (Days)" setting that is too far back given the time frame, the script will produce an error.
I suggest playing with settings from "1" (compares volume to the previous day's volume) to the highest number that doesn't break the script.
For example, at a 2m time frame, the maximum look-back will be "6" or "7" depending on which mode you are using.
Longer chart time settings allow larger look-back values.
I find that the default value ("6") does a decent job in general.
Please feel free to reuse or further develop this script.
I would greatly appreciate it if you would send me a message below if you find it useful.
Volume per PointHello everyone <3
I present to you guys my new indicator Volume per Point (VP)
As suggested by the title, this script gives you the volume for every point.
Here's a run down on specific features:
SUBCHART COLUMNS:
The columns can be the following four colors:
Green - There was an increase in VP
Red - There was a decrease in VP
Yellow - There was divergence between volume and candle range
Purple - There are signs of exhaustion compared to the previous candlestick
SUBCHART HISTOGRAM:
The histogram can be the following two colors:
Lime - Buying volume
Red - Selling volume
I left you guys the ability to change the multiplier on the volume in settings just incase it's too small or too big compared to the VP. Decimals are allowed!
CANDLESTICK CHART:
The candlesticks can the following two colors:
Yellow - There was a divergence between volume and candle range
Purple - There are signs of exhaustion compared to the previous candlestick
FILTERS
In the settings, you're able to add the following two filters:
RSI Filters - RSI must be below or above the specified value for the divergence or exhaustion to trigger
Percent Filters - The candlestick range or volume must be higher or lower than the specified value depending whether it's divergence or exhaustion.
This is a very helpful tool if you're interesting in reading volume. It also facilitates finding market maker activity depending on the size of the VP. Sudden abnormal spikes in VP usually do signal something and that's up for you to figure out :)
Thank you for your time to read this

BankNifty Volume Indicator
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Uses BankNifty Index Stocks Volume.
- BankNifty Volume Indicator is created by adding all BankNifty Stocks Volume together.
- BankNifty Volume will be an important indicator in BankNifty Index technical analysis because it is used to measure the relative significance of a market move.
- The higher the volume during a Banknifty index price move, the more significant the move and the lower the volume during a Banknifty index price move, the less significant the move.
- Moving Average is also added.
NSE:BANKNIFTY
Volume Positive Negative (VPN)The idea and calculations for the Volume Positive Negative (VPN) indicator were created by Markos Katsanos. Markos wrote about the indicator in the article Detecting High-Volume Breakouts, published in Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities April, 2021 (Vol. 39, Issue 5).
The goal of the VPN indicator is to detect breakouts using only volume. The basic idea is to compare volume on up days versus volume on down days. The indicator can oscillate between the range of -100 and 100. Values between 0 and 20 are generally considered bullish, negative are bearish.
When the plotted VPN crosses over what Markos refers to as the critical value, that may indicate a high volume breakout. The critical value can be adjusted between 0 to 20, 10 is the default,
Volume Positive Negative Calculation (VPN)
VPN = (VP - VN) / MAV / Period * 100
VP - sum of positive volume
VN - sum of negative volume
MAV - moving average of volume
Volume is considered positive when the average price is higher than the previous day's price by more than .1 of the ATR (average true range).
ETS Prox Cumulative Volume Delta BBThis script is based on the work originally done by kprsa for the Monster Cumulative Delta indicator, but adds Bollinger Bands and upgrades it to version 4 from version 1.
It is an approximation of the Cumulative Delta Volume that is usually based on volume differences between market and limit orders, but because that data is not available, this indicator allocates a portion of the volume of a candle to the "upward" and "downward force" of each candle.
The upward force of a "Buy" candle is calculated by the High-Low
The downward force is calculated by (High-Close)+(Open-Low)
"Sell" candles are calculated in the same way just opposite
Total force=up force + down force
Up volume approximation = candle volume * up force/total force
Down volume approximation = candle volume * down force/total force
The result is similar to OBV, but not exactly the same, and allows for a "candle size" which you can't get with On Balance Volume.
I had never used a Cumulative Delta Volume indicator before, but when I started using it myself, it proved very effective when there was a deviation from price. It was also very effective in my opinion when Bollinger Bands was added to assess the standard deviation of the CDV compared to the Bollinger Band of price and looking for areas where the CDV reaction to hitting or getting close to the BB was different.
I hope you find it useful! Of course, it comes with no guarantee of profits or any investing advice whatsoever.
Volume DensitySince we don't have tick count per time interval, let's do it this way. Basically "bigger the move bigger the volume" rule applies in most times, making volume alone kinda useless. What is more interesting, is when there was a huge volume within a relatively small range, or vice versa, a huge move without equally increased volume.
Without diving into details, bars with low volatility and serious volume are aprox. areas of possible future reversals/pullbacks, while volumeless high volatility moves should not cause any serious stops in price action.
This is just a small easy script to highlight this process. "Mathematically speaking, it's just a reciprocal of quotient of awfewefaffwqg..... Nah, not this time.
HOW IT WORKS:
Volume Density = 1/(range/volume)
We take range of a bar (high minus low), divide it by volume of the same bar, in order to neutralize this "bigger-bigger" relationship. Then we memorize this number, take 1 and divide 1 by this number, in order to inverse the result. So now, small bars with big volume will be rated higher than just by using classic volume histogram.
I suppose it would be easy to use it along with classic volume histogram, and assess the differences between these 2 histograms.

Probs some1 has already posted smth like this before idk, but if it aint the case, here it is, for you.
Multi MA on candlestick volume indicatorUses 5 volume moving averages to change the candlestick color depending on how high above average volume is.
The volumes plotted at the bottom of the chart are set to the same settings as the indicator, you can see the volume bars that stick higher above the orange moving average are a different color on the chart to the smaller ones.
Any volume bar that is below the moving average is colored purple.
