Liquidity Trap Detector (LTD)The Liquidity Trap Detector is an advanced trading tool designed to identify liquidity zones and potential traps set by institutional players. It provides traders with a comprehensive framework to align with smart money movements, helping them avoid common retail pitfalls such as bull and bear traps.
The indicator focuses on detecting liquidity sweeps, breaker blocks, and areas of institutional accumulation/distribution. It integrates multiple technical analysis methods to offer high-probability signals and insights into how liquidity dynamics unfold in the market.
Note : This indicator is not designed for beginners; it is intended for traders who already have a solid understanding of trading fundamentals. It is tailored for individuals who are familiar with concepts like liquidity, order blocks, and traps. Traders with at least 6 months to 1 year of trading experience will fully appreciate the power and potential of this indicator, as they will have the necessary knowledge to leverage its features effectively. Beginners may find it challenging to grasp the advanced concepts embedded in this tool.
Why Combine These Elements?
The components of the Liquidity Trap Detector are carefully chosen to address the core challenges of identifying institutional activity and liquidity traps. Here’s why each element is included and how they work together:
1. Order Blocks:
• Purpose: Identify zones where large institutional players accumulate or distribute positions.
• Role in the Indicator: These zones act as primary liquidity areas, where price is likely to reverse or consolidate due to significant order flow.
2. Breaker Blocks:
• Purpose: Highlight areas where liquidity has been swept, leading to potential price reversals or continuations.
• Role in the Indicator: Confirms whether a liquidity trap has occurred and provides actionable levels for entry or exit.
3. ATR-Based Volatility Zones:
• Purpose: Filter signals based on market volatility to ensure trades align with statistically significant price movements.
• Role in the Indicator: Defines dynamic support and resistance zones, improving the accuracy of signal generation.
4. Volume Delta:
• Purpose: Measure the imbalance between aggressive buyers and sellers, often indicating institutional activity.
• Role in the Indicator: Validates whether a liquidity trap is backed by smart money absorption or retail-driven momentum.
5. Trend Confirmation (EMA):
• Purpose: Align liquidity trap signals with the broader market trend, reducing false positives.
• Role in the Indicator: Ensures trades are executed in the direction of the prevailing trend.
What Makes It Unique?
1. Gen 1 Liquidity Zones and Traps:
• The indicator identifies Gen 1 Liquidity Zones, which represent the first areas where liquidity is accumulated or swept. While these zones often lead to reversals, they can sometimes fail, resulting in continuation moves. The indicator highlights these scenarios, helping traders adapt.
• For example, a bull trap identified in a Gen 1 Zone may see price move higher after an initial red candle, completing a secondary liquidity sweep before reversing.
2. Multi-Layer Signal Validation:
• Signals are only generated when liquidity, volume, trend, and volatility align. This ensures high-probability setups and reduces noise in choppy markets.
3. Dynamic Adaptability:
• ATR-based zones and volume delta filtering allow the indicator to adapt to different market conditions, from trending to range-bound environments.
4. Institutional Insights:
• By focusing on liquidity sweeps, order blocks, and volume imbalances, the indicator helps traders align with institutional strategies rather than retail behavior.
How It Works
The Liquidity Trap Detector uses a step-by-step process to identify and validate liquidity traps:
1. Identifying Liquidity Zones:
• Order Blocks: Mark key zones of institutional activity where price is likely to reverse.
• Breaker Blocks: Highlight areas where liquidity sweeps have occurred, signaling potential traps.
2. Filtering with Volatility (ATR):
• ATR defines dynamic support and resistance zones, ensuring signals are only generated near significant price levels.
3. Validating Traps with Volume Delta:
• Volume delta shows whether liquidity sweeps are backed by aggressive buying/selling from institutions, confirming the trap’s validity.
4. Aligning with Market Trends:
• EMA ensures signals align with the broader trend to reduce false positives.
5. Monitoring Gen 1 Liquidity Zones:
• The indicator highlights Gen 1 Liquidity Zones where price may initially reverse or sweep further before a true reversal. Traders are alerted to potential continuation scenarios if volume or momentum suggests unmet liquidity above/below the zone.
How to Use It
Buy Signal:
• Triggered when:
• Price sweeps below an order block and forms a breaker block, indicating a liquidity trap.
• Volume delta confirms aggressive selling absorption.
• ATR volatility zone supports the reversal.
• EMA confirms a bullish trend.
• Action: Enter a Buy trade and set:
• Stop Loss (SL): Below the order block.
• Take Profit (TP): Near the next resistance or liquidity zone.
Sell Signal:
• Triggered when:
• Price sweeps above an order block and forms a breaker block, indicating a liquidity trap.
• Volume delta confirms aggressive buying absorption.
• ATR volatility zone supports the reversal.
• EMA confirms a bearish trend.
• Action: Enter a Sell trade and set:
• SL: Above the order block.
• TP: Near the next support or liquidity zone.
Timeframes:
• Best suited for scalping and intraday trading on lower timeframes (5m, 15m, 1H).
• Can also be applied to swing trading on higher timeframes.
Example Scenarios:
1. Bull Trap in a Gen 1 Zone:
• Price sweeps above a resistance order block, forms a breaker block, and reverses sharply. However, if momentum persists, price may continue higher after a minor pullback. The indicator helps traders anticipate this by monitoring volume and trend shifts.
2. Bear Trap with Secondary Sweep:
• Price sweeps below a support order block but fails to reverse immediately, instead forming a secondary liquidity sweep before turning bullish. The indicator highlights both scenarios, allowing for flexible trade management.
Why Use It?
The Liquidity Trap Detector offers:
1. Precision: Combines multiple filters to identify institutional liquidity traps with high accuracy.
2. Adaptability: Works across trending and range-bound markets.
3. Smart Money Alignment: Helps traders avoid retail traps by focusing on liquidity sweeps and institutional behavior.
Volumedelta
Enhanced Cumulative Volume Delta + MAThe Enhanced Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator is designed to help traders analyze the cumulative buying and selling pressure in the market by examining the delta between the up and down volume. By tracking this metric, traders can gain insights into the strength of a trend and potential reversals. This indicator uses advanced volume analysis combined with customizable moving averages to provide a more detailed view of market dynamics.
How to Use This Indicator:
Volume Delta Visualization:
The indicator plots the cumulative volume delta (CVD) using color-coded candles, where teal represents positive delta (buying pressure) and soft red represents negative delta (selling pressure).
Moving Averages:
Use the moving averages to smooth the CVD data and identify long-term trends. You can choose between SMA and EMA for each of the three available moving averages. The first and third moving averages are typically used for short-term and long-term trend analysis, respectively, while the second moving average can serve as a medium-term filter.
Arrow Markers:
The indicator will display arrows (green triangle up for crossing above, red triangle down for crossing below) when the CVD volume crosses the 3rd moving average. You can control the visibility of these arrows through the input parameters.
Volume Data:
The indicator provides error handling in case no volume data is available for the selected symbol, ensuring that you're not misled by incomplete data.
Practical Applications:
Trend Confirmation: Use the CVD and moving averages to confirm the overall trend direction and strength. Positive delta and a rising CVD can confirm an uptrend, while negative delta and a falling CVD indicate a downtrend.
Volume Breakouts: The arrows marking when the CVD crosses the 3rd moving average can help you spot potential volume breakouts or reversals, making them useful for entry or exit signals.
Volume Divergence: Pay attention to divergences between price and CVD, as these can often signal potential trend reversals or weakening momentum.
Ichimoku with Cumulative Delta Volume Trend Buy/Sell SignalsCombines Ichimoku with depth of Cumulative Volume Delta to bring buying/selling strength to areas of Ichimoku supports/resistances.
Best used with CumulativeVolumeDelta by LonesomeTheBlue as a subchart with Heikin-Ashi candles with values of the subchart of SMA 50, EMA 100 and EMA 200 as these are the values I used to confirm supports and resistances within the delta volume.
Meant for all timeframes, but more accurate on the daily, weekly and monthly timeframes for swings and commons.
NFA and good luck.
Wick Volume AlertThis indicator is intended to find a possible price reversal and is well suited for scalping in the smaller timeframes from 1 to 15min chart. It is important to use it in conjunction with other indicators such as order blocks or price levels.
The advantage over other Wick indicators is that volume is also taken into account.
Unfortunately, the markers on the chart do not work properly as they do not attach themselves when moving vertically. I would be happy if someone could fix the problem, as I am not a professional in Pine scripting.
Smashing Pump Delta [by Oberlunar]Smashing Pump Δ by Oberlunar
This is a Crypto Δ Volumetric Pump indicator specifically designed to detect crypto pumps. Its primary goal is to highlight moments when buying volume significantly outweighs selling volume on a lower timeframe, suggesting strong upward momentum in the market.
I can't access to the data feed thus the core of its functionality lies in calculating the volume delta Δ in a simpler way... by measuring the difference between aggregated buy and sell volumes. Buy volume is recorded when a lower timeframe candle closes higher than it opened (green candles), while sell volume is recorded when a candle closes lower than it opened (red candles). By focusing exclusively on these buy and sell imbalances, the indicator naturally leans toward identifying positive surges in activity—the hallmark of a pump.
Unlike dumps, which are often accompanied by panic selling and rapid downward movement, pumps are driven by aggressive buying pressure which in crypto assets is very interesting. This indicator is designed to highlight those spikes in buying volume, helping traders pinpoint moments when a significant upward move might be unfolding. It achieves this by tracking the largest volume delta over recent candles and marking it clearly on the chart.
So, if you’re looking for a tool to spot when the bulls are charging, this indicator is your ally.

Important Note on Data
TradingView does not handle market depth data such as order book information. The volume delta calculation is an approximation based on the asset’s volume and price behavior. This means it does not precisely reflect the actual flow of buy or sell orders in the market, but rather an estimate derived from available data.
Conclusion
The **Volume Delta Filtered Overlay v1.1 by Ramtraderbook** is a visual tool that helps quickly identify significant buy or sell volume movements, making it ideal for strategies that rely on order flow analysis. However, it is recommended to combine it with other tools for a more comprehensive analysis.
Volume Delta Filtered v1.1 by RamtraderbookIndicator Explanation: Volume Delta_RTB (Filtered)
General Description
The Volume Delta_RTB (Filtered) indicator is designed to analyze the volume delta of a financial asset and highlight only significant changes based on a configured threshold. This indicator is useful for detecting moments when buying volume exceeds selling volume (or vice versa), providing a clear view of market pressure.
What is Volume Delta?
Volume delta measures the difference between buying and selling volume over a given time period. A positive delta indicates that buying prevails over selling, while a negative delta indicates the opposite.
Indicator Inputs
The indicator has several customizable parameters to suit the user’s needs:
1. Volume Delta Threshold
- Allows you to set a minimum volume delta value.
- Only indicator values that exceed this absolute delta threshold will be displayed.
- Default value: 100,000.
2. Use of a Lower Time Frame
- Option to analyze data from a lower time frame than the main chart.
Operating Logic
1. Selection of the Lower Time Frame
- The indicator scans data from a lower time frame to accurately calculate the volume delta.
- By default, it automatically selects an appropriate lower time frame, though it can be set manually.
2. Calculation of Volume Delta
- Using the `ta.requestVolumeDelta` function, the indicator calculates:
- Volume delta at the start of the period (`openVolume`).
- Maximum delta (`maxVolume`).
- Minimum delta (`minVolume`).
- Last recorded delta (`lastVolume`).
3. Filtering Values
- If the absolute value of `lastVolume` (the last volume delta) is below the configured threshold (`deltaThreshold`), the data will not be displayed on the chart.
- This allows the indicator to highlight only significant movements, avoiding unnecessary noise.
4. Visualization
- Volume delta is represented by candles to facilitate interpretation:
- Yellow candles for positive delta (buying prevails).
- Pink candles for negative delta (selling prevails).
- A horizontal line at `0` serves as a reference.
- Colors can be configured as needed.
5. Data Validation
- If the data provider does not provide volume information for the asset, the indicator will display an error message.
Indicator Advantages
- Efficient Filtering: Focus on the most relevant movements in terms of volume, ignoring small or insignificant values.
- Adaptable: Offers customization options for both the delta threshold and the time frame.
- Clear Visualization: Colored candles make it easier to spot dominant buying or selling trends.
NOTE:
- Estimated Delta Data: Since TradingView does not have access to market depth data or an exact breakdown of buying and selling volume, the delta calculations are approximations based on price and volume behavior.
- Data Provider Dependency: Some assets or instruments may not have volume information available, limiting the indicator’s use.
Binance Perp Premium/DiscountThis TradingView Pine Script indicator calculates and displays the premium or discount percentage between a cryptocurrency's spot price and its corresponding perpetual futures (perp) price on Binance. It automatically detects whether the current chart symbol represents a spot or perp market by checking for the ".P" suffix. The script then retrieves the closing prices for both the spot and perp symbols using the request.security function. If valid data is available for both markets, it computes the premium or discount as a percentage and visualizes this difference as a histogram below the main chart. Green bars indicate a premium (perp price above spot), while red bars signify a discount (perp price below spot). The indicator includes error handling to display 'n/a' when data for the required symbols is unavailable, ensuring robustness across various chart applications.
CDVDThis script calculates and visualizes the Cumulative Delta Volume Divergence (CDVD) with the MACD indicator. It combines volume-based market analysis with MACD-style momentum to help identify false signals with divergences, trends or potential reversals.
The cumulative delta volume divergence is derived by summing up the differences between uptick volume (volume during price increases) and downtick volume (volume during price decreases) over time.
A Fast EMA and Slow EMA are calculated from the cumulative delta volume to smooth the data.
The difference between these EMAs forms the MACD Line.
A Signal Line is created by applying another EMA to the MACD Line.
The difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line forms the Histogram:
This indicator helps traders:
Identify false signals with divergences unseen on MACD and Price Action.
Identify bullish or bearish momentum in market volume.
Spot potential trend reversals based on changes in cumulative delta volume dynamics.
Analyze the interplay between price momentum and volume flow.
It’s especially useful for traders who focus on volume-based market dynamics.
Snapshot: Use in conjunction with MACD to identify true divergences.

Volume Delta Candles HTF [TradingFinder] LTF Volume Candles 🔵 Introduction
In financial markets, understanding the concepts of supply and demand and their impact on price movements is of paramount importance. Supply and demand, as fundamental pillars of economics, reflect the interaction between buyers and sellers.
When buyers' strength surpasses that of sellers, demand increases, and prices tend to rise. Conversely, when sellers dominate buyers, supply overtakes demand, causing prices to drop. These interactions play a crucial role in determining market trends, price reversal points, and trading decisions.
Volume Delta Candles offer traders a practical way to visualize trading activity within each candlestick. By integrating data from lower timeframes or live market feeds, these candles eliminate the need for standalone volume indicators.
They present the proportions of buying and selling volume as intuitive colored bars, making it easier to interpret market dynamics at a glance. Additionally, they encapsulate critical metrics like peak delta, lowest delta, and net delta, allowing traders to grasp the market's internal order flow with greater precision.
In financial markets, grasping the interplay between supply and demand and its influence on price movements is crucial for successful trading. These fundamental economic forces reflect the ongoing balance between buyers and sellers in the market.
When buyers exert greater strength than sellers, demand dominates, driving prices upward. Conversely, when sellers take control, supply surpasses demand, and prices decline. Understanding these dynamics is essential for identifying market trends, pinpointing reversal points, and making informed trading decisions.
Volume Delta Candles provide an innovative method for evaluating trading activity within individual candlesticks, offering a simplified view without relying on separate volume indicators. By leveraging lower timeframe or real-time data, this tool visualizes the distribution of buying and selling volumes within a candle through color-coded bars.
This visual representation enables traders to quickly assess market sentiment and understand the forces driving price action. Buyer and seller strength is a critical concept that focuses on the ratio of buying to selling volumes. This ratio not only provides insights into the market's current state but also serves as a leading indicator for detecting potential shifts in trends.
Traders often rely on volume analysis to identify significant supply and demand zones, guiding their entry and exit strategies. Delta Candles translate these complex metrics, such as Maximum Delta, Minimum Delta, and Final Delta, into an easy-to-read visual format using Japanese candlestick structures, making them an invaluable resource for analyzing order flows and market momentum.

Delta in Percentage (Blue Line): This shows the difference between the average volume of up days and down days, expressed as a percentage of the overall moving average of volume. It can be used to identify bullish or bearish volume imbalances. For example:
Positive values indicate that the volume on up days is stronger than on down days, which could suggest a bullish trend.
Negative values suggest that volume on down days is stronger than on up days, potentially indicating a bearish trend.
Zero Line (Gray Dotted Line): A reference line at 0 that helps you identify when the delta is positive or negative, and visualize the neutral point where volume is balanced between up and down days.
How to Use This Indicator:
Add to Your Chart: Copy the script above and paste it into TradingView's Pine Script editor. Click "Add to Chart" to visualize the indicator.
Interpret the Indicator:
Volume Volatility: A higher value suggests high market volatility. When volume is highly volatile, it may indicate more significant price movements or market uncertainty.
Long-Term Average of Volatility: Use this line as a reference to see whether current volatility is above or below average over a longer period.
Delta in Percentage: This is particularly useful to compare the strength of buying and selling volume. A positive delta percentage suggests strong buying pressure, while a negative delta suggests strong selling pressure. The closer the delta is to zero, the more balanced the volume between up and down days.
Use for Trend Confirmation: The indicator can help confirm trends. If the delta percentage is positive and increasing, and the volume volatility is above average, it could signal strong bullish momentum. Conversely, if the delta is negative and the volume volatility is rising, it may suggest bearish sentiment.

IQ Zones [TradingIQ]Hey Traders!
Introducing "IQ Zones".
"IQ Zones" is an indicator that combines support and resistance identification with volume, the "value area" of a candlestick to be exact. IQ Zones identifies turning points in the market; however, the candlestick high or low that formed the key turning point is not necessarily distinguished as the support/resistance area. Instead, the script looks into the bar at lower timeframes and calculates the value area of the candlestick that formed the support or resistance level. Therefore, any lines protruding from a candlestick reflect the value area of that candlestick. These levels (value area high and value area low) are marked on the candlestick as a support/resistance level. If the level formed on high volume it's marked as an "IQ Zone".
Additionally, IQ Zones presents a heat map to show volume intensity at nearby price areas. The heatmap is a product of the Volume Profile (IQ Profile) located on the right of the chart.
The IQ Profile is a segmented volume profile. Recent price is split into fifths (customizable), and individual volume profiles are calculated for all segmented price areas. Price is split into more than one segment to avoid a situation where volume in a ranging price zone far surpasses all other recent price areas - creating an "unusable" volume profile that doesn't offer helpful insights. If desired, you can set the segmenting option to "1" to calculate one unified volume profile for the entire price range.
The image above shows IQ Zones in action!
Core Features of IQ Zones
Value Area Support and Resistance Levels
Segmented volume profile for the recent trading period
Volume intensity heatmap
Support and resistance levels in high volume intensity may be more significant as price stoppers
The image above explains the labels marked along the y-axis of the IQ Profile.
The "more green" a price area/label is, the higher the volume intensity at the marked support/resistance area.
The image above further explains line lines protruding from the IQ Profile.
For this example, the value area of the candlestick (where most trading action occurred) is quite far from the high price of the candlestick that formed a resistance level! Using the value area of a candlestick that marks a key turning point to draw support/resistance offers insight into where the majority of trading action took place when the support/resistance level was forming!
Additionally, you can hover your mouse over the IQ Zone labels (triangles pointing up or down) to see the prices of the value area for the support/resistance level, including the total buying volume and total selling volume at the price area!
The image above further explains the IQ Profile!
You can segment the recent price area anywhere from 1 - 15 times.
The image above further explains IQ Zones and the IQ Profile!
That will be all for this indicator - a fun project to share with the community.
Thank you!
Layered Volume Delta (LVD) BarsThis volume indicator shows buying and selling delta pressure in each bar.
OBV based on Heikin-AshiDescription
This indicator calculates the On-Balance Volume (OBV) based on Heikin-Ashi candles rather than regular candlesticks.
OBV based on Heikin-Ashi: The OBV is calculated based on Heikin-Ashi candle trends. Volume is added when the Heikin-Ashi close is above the open (bullish) and subtracted when the close is below the open (bearish).
Volume Analysis: This approach helps traders identify significant volume shifts in a smoother trend environment, reducing market noise that often accompanies traditional candlestick charts.
説明
このインジケーターは、通常のローソク足ではなく、平均足(Heikin-Ashi)を基にオンバランス・ボリューム(OBV)を計算します。
平均足に基づくOBV: OBVは、平均足のトレンドに基づいて計算されます。平均足の終値が始値を上回った場合(陽線)は出来高が加算され、終値が始値を下回った場合(陰線)は出来高が減算されます。
出来高分析: この手法により、通常のローソク足チャートで発生するノイズを軽減し、滑らかなトレンド環境で重要な出来高の変化を把握できます。
Delta EdgeAt Inertia Trading Systems, we are excited to introduce our latest release, the Delta Edge indicator. Designed specifically for traders using TradingView, Delta Edge makes reading delta simpler and more intuitive, giving you a clearer understanding of market dynamics in real-time. Whether you're a seasoned trader or just starting out, Delta Edge offers a streamlined way to monitor buying and selling pressure, helping you make more informed trading decisions with ease.
The " Delta Edge " indicator calculates and plots cumulative delta, which tracks the net difference between buy and sell volume in futures trading. This gives traders insight into market sentiment by showing the underlying buying or selling pressure.
-Delta represents the difference between buy and sell volume: positive delta means more buying, while negative delta shows more selling pressure.
-The cumulative delta shifts when the market moves from buying to selling (or vice versa), helping identify potential trend reversals.
-A color-coded histogram (green for positive, red for negative) visually represents these shifts in market pressure.
Traders often use delta to gauge whether the market is likely to continue in a certain direction or reverse, depending on the strength of buying or selling pressure. This tool is particularly valuable for intraday traders and scalpers who focus on short-term price movements, as it helps them understand the underlying order flow driving the market.
Additionally, the indicator is effective in detecting divergences between price action and order flow. For example, if price is making higher highs but delta is decreasing (indicating weakening buying pressure), it may signal a bearish divergence and a potential reversal. These divergences help traders spot hidden market strength or weakness, making the indicator a powerful tool for assessing future market moves.
Order Flow / Delta Volume IndicatorOrder Flow / Delta Volume Indicator
The Order Flow / Delta Volume Indicator is designed to give traders a comprehensive view of market activity by combining delta volume analysis, order flow imbalances, and momentum filters. This indicator is not just a mashup of components, but a carefully crafted tool that enhances decision-making by integrating various layers of market analysis into one powerful system.
How the Components Work Together:
1. Delta Volume Bars: The core of this indicator, delta volume shows the difference between buy and sell orders, allowing traders to see real-time shifts in market sentiment. Green bars indicate buy-side pressure, while red bars show sell-side dominance. By visualizing this in bar form, traders can easily spot significant shifts in order flow that could signal trend changes or momentum shifts.
2. Cumulative Delta Line (Rescaled): The cumulative delta is rescaled to plot under the price candles, giving traders a clear, contextualized view of how net buyer or seller dominance is developing over time. This line helps identify potential market reversals when price moves diverge from cumulative delta trends.
3. Order Flow Imbalance Detection: Imbalances in buy and sell volumes are automatically detected using a threshold, ensuring that traders are alerted to significant market moves. These imbalances provide insight into aggressive buying or selling behavior, which is crucial for identifying points of high trading activity or potential breakout/reversal zones.
4. VWAP Filter: Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is included as a filter to confirm trend direction. The VWAP ensures that buy signals are only triggered when price action is above the VWAP (indicating strength), and sell signals are triggered when price is below the VWAP (indicating weakness). This ensures that signals are not just based on volume, but also on where price is relative to a critical benchmark.
5. RSI Filter: The inclusion of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) adds a momentum check to the signals. By using RSI, traders can avoid taking trades during low-momentum periods, ensuring they only act when market conditions favor a stronger move.
6. Signal Cooldown Feature: To avoid clutter and noise from frequent signals, this indicator includes a cooldown period between signals, ensuring that traders don’t receive excessive alerts in a short timeframe. This feature prevents overtrading and helps focus on high-quality signals.
Why This Combination is Useful:
• Comprehensive Market Insight: By combining delta volume analysis with order flow imbalance detection, this indicator provides a deep understanding of market sentiment, showing not only price movement but the underlying volume dynamics driving those moves.
• Signal Accuracy: The VWAP and RSI filters ensure that signals are only generated in strong market conditions, filtering out weak or false signals that often occur in choppy markets.
• Divergence Detection: The cumulative delta line provides traders with a tool for spotting divergences between price action and underlying volume, allowing for earlier detection of potential reversals.
This indicator is more than a simple combination of existing tools—it’s a strategic fusion of volume analysis, order flow, and momentum filters designed to provide traders with a clearer view of market activity and to generate more reliable buy/sell signals.
This description explains how the components work together and highlights the indicator’s usefulness, which should address TradingView’s concerns about originality and purpose.

Cumulative Volume Delta Histogram [TradingFinder] CVD Histogram🔵 Introduction
To fully understand Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), it’s important to start by explaining Volume Delta. In trading, "Delta" refers to the difference between two values or the rate of change between two data points. Volume Delta represents the difference between buying and selling pressure for each candlestick on a chart, and this difference can vary across different time frames.
A positive delta indicates that buying volume exceeds selling volume, while a negative delta shows that selling pressure is stronger. When buying and selling volumes are equal, the volume delta equals zero.
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator tracks the cumulative difference between buying and selling volumes over time, helping traders analyze market dynamics and identify reliable trading signals through CVD divergences.
🔵 How to Use
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is an essential technical analysis tool that aggregates delta values for each candlestick, creating a comprehensive indicator. This helps traders evaluate overall buying and selling pressure over market swings.
Unlike standard Volume Delta, which compares the delta on a candle-by-candle basis, CVD provides a broader view of buying and selling pressure during market trends. A downward-trending CVD suggests that selling pressure is dominant, which is typically a bearish signal.
Conversely, an upward-trending CVD indicates bullish sentiment, suggesting buyers are in control. This analysis becomes even more valuable when compared with price action and market structure, helping traders predict the direction of asset prices.
🟣 How to Use CVD in Trend Analysis and Market Reversals
Understanding how to detect trend changes using Cumulative Volume Delta is crucial for traders. Typically, CVD aligns with market structure, moving in the same direction as price trends.
However, divergences between CVD and price movements or signs of volume exhaustion can be powerful indicators of potential market reversals. Recognizing these patterns helps traders make more informed decisions and improve their trading strategies.
🟣 How to Spot Trend Exhaustion with CVD
CVD is particularly effective for identifying trend exhaustion in the market. For instance, if an asset's price hits a new low, but CVD doesn’t follow, this might indicate a lack of seller interest, signaling potential exhaustion and a possible reversal.
Similarly, if an asset reaches a new high but CVD fails to follow, it can suggest that buyers lack the strength to push the market higher, indicating a possible reversal to the downside.
🟣 How to Use CVD Divergence in Price Trend Analysis
Another effective use of CVD is identifying divergences in price trends. For example, if CVD breaks a previous high or low while the price remains stable, this divergence may indicate that buying or selling pressure is being absorbed.
For instance, if CVD rises sharply without a corresponding increase in asset prices, it may suggest that sellers are absorbing the buying pressure, which could lead to a strong sell-off. Conversely, if prices remain stable while CVD declines, it may indicate that buyers are absorbing selling pressure, likely leading to a price increase once the selling subsides.
🟣 CVD Display, Candlestick vs. Histogram – What’s the Difference?
CVD can be displayed in two different formats :
Candlestick Display : In this format, the data is shown as green and red candlesticks, each representing the difference in buying and selling pressure over a given time period. This display allows traders to visually analyze market pressure along with price changes.
Histogram Display : Here, the data is represented as vertical green and red bars, where each bar’s height corresponds to the volume delta. This format offers a clearer view of the strengths and weaknesses in market buying and selling pressure.
🟣 What are the Key Settings for CVD?
Cumulative Mode : CVD offers three modes: "Total," "Periodic," and "EMA." In "Total" mode, CVD accumulates the delta from the beginning to the end of the session. In "Periodic" mode, it accumulates volume periodically, resetting at specific intervals. In "EMA" mode, the CVD is smoothed using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to filter out short-term fluctuations.
Period : The "Period" setting allows you to define the number of bars or intervals for "Periodic" and "EMA" modes. A shorter period captures more short-term movements, while a longer period smooths out the fluctuations and provides a broader view of market trends.
Market Ultra Data : This feature integrates data from 26 major brokers into the volume calculations, providing more reliable volume data. It’s important to specify the type of market you are analyzing (Forex, crypto, etc.) as different brokers contribute to different markets. Enabling this setting ensures the highest accuracy in volume analysis.
🔵 Conclusion
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is a powerful technical indicator that helps traders assess buying and selling pressure by aggregating the delta values of each candlestick. Whether displayed as candlesticks or histograms, CVD provides insights into market trends, helping traders make informed decisions.
CVD is particularly useful in identifying divergences and exhaustion in market trends. For example, if CVD does not align with price movements, it can signal a potential trend reversal. Traders use this tool to fine-tune their entry and exit points and better predict future market movements.
In summary, CVD is a versatile tool for analyzing volume data and understanding the balance of buying and selling pressure in the market, making it an invaluable asset in any trader’s toolkit
Cumulative Volume Delta Divergence [TradingFinder] Periodic EMA🔵 Introduction
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is a powerful tool in technical analysis that is derived from market volume or trading activity. The Cumulative Volume Delta Divergence Detector Indicator helps traders identify Cumulative Volume Delta Divergences (CVD Divergence), which can provide reliable trading signals.
These divergences, such as bullish and bearish CVD divergences, act as key indicators of potential trend reversals in financial markets. By analyzing CVD divergences, traders can gain insights into the strength of buying and selling pressure and make more informed predictions about price trends.
The CVD indicator is particularly effective for traders who engage in day trading and scalping, as it helps identify price reversal points by analyzing volume and price behavior.
Using the CVD indicator in combination with other technical tools such as support and resistance levels and candlestick patterns allows for a more accurate market analysis.
🔵 How to Use
Divergences are one of the most important technical analysis signals that indicate the current strength of a price move may not be sustainable.
Cumulative Volume Delta Divergence helps traders identify potential trading opportunities that may not be visible on the price chart alone.
This type of divergence examines the relationship between buying and selling volume and price, enabling traders to better understand price trends.
🟣 Bullish CVD Divergence
A bullish CVD divergence occurs when the price makes a lower low, but the CVD indicator shows a higher low. This indicates increasing buying pressure in the market, even though the price is declining. In other words, despite the price dropping, buyers are gradually gaining strength, which could signal a price reversal and the start of a bullish trend.
How to use this signal : In this scenario, traders looking to go long can use this signal as a favorable opportunity to enter the market. After a bullish divergence, the market typically tends to move upward.
To reduce risk, traders can wait for further confirmation from the price chart. For example, if the price breaks through the previous high after the divergence or breaks a resistance level, this could be a more reliable signal for entering the market.
🟣 Bearish CVD Divergence
A bearish CVD divergence is the opposite of a bullish divergence. In this type of divergence, the price makes a higher high, but the CVD indicator shows a lower high. This indicates decreasing buying pressure and weakening momentum in the current bullish trend. A bearish divergence often serves as a warning of a potential market reversal to the downside.
How to use this signal : Traders can use this divergence as an opportunity to exit long positions or enter short positions. When the CVD indicator makes a lower high compared to the price, it signals weakness in buyer strength.
If traders receive further confirmation from the price chart, such as a break of key support levels or an increase in selling volume, this can serve as a stronger signal for the beginning of a bearish trend.
🟣 How to Build a Trading Strategy with Cumulative Volume Delta Divergence
Using CVD divergence alone may not be sufficient. Traders should combine this tool with other technical analysis techniques and indicators to have more confidence in their decisions. For example, when observing a CVD divergence, traders can also analyze volume, trend lines, or candlestick patterns to get a more accurate market analysis.
Additionally, risk management should always be a priority. Using stop-loss orders and properly sizing trades can help traders minimize their losses if they make a mistake.
🔵 Setting
Divergence Fractal Period : Determines the period of swings. The minimum and default value is 2.
CVD Period : You can set the period of " Periodic " and " EMA " modes.
Cumulative Mode : It has three modes "Periodic" and "EMA". In "Periodic" mode, it accumulates the volume periodically and in "EMA" mode, it calculates the moving average of the volume.
Market Ultra Data : If you turn on this feature, 26 large brokers will be included in the calculation of the trading volume. The advantage of this capability is to have more reliable volume data. You should be careful to specify the market you are in, FOREX brokers and Crypto brokers are different.
🔵 Conclusion
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator is a powerful tool in technical analysis, helping traders better identify price trends and make more accurate market predictions. By identifying CVD divergences, traders can anticipate price reversals and time their market entries and exits accordingly.
Bullish and bearish CVD divergences each provide valuable signals that can help traders identify the best entry and exit points in the market. A bullish CVD divergence signals strength in buying that will likely lead to a price increase, while a bearish CVD divergence indicates weakness in the bullish trend and the potential for the beginning of a bearish trend.
Overall, combining CVD with other technical analysis tools and employing risk management strategies can help traders make better trading decisions and capitalize on available market opportunities.
Thrax - Intraday Market Pressure ZonesTHRAX - INTRADAY MARKET PRESSURE ZONES
This indicator identifies potential support and resistance zones based on areas of significant market pressure. It dynamically plots these zones and adjusts their visibility based on real-time price action and user-defined thresholds. The indicator is useful for traders seeking to understand intraday market pressure, visualize zones of potential price reversals, and analyze volume imbalances at critical levels.
1. Support/Resistance Zones: Wherever the price retraces significantly from its high a support zone is drawn and when it retraces significantly from it low a resistance zone is drawn. The significant retracing is measured by the wick threshold percentage. For instance, if set to 75%, it implies price retracement of 75% either from high or from low for a particular candel
Volume delat: Displays volume delta information where the zones are formed. This can be used by trader to consider only those zones where delta is significant.
2. Breakout Detection: Monitors for price breakouts beyond established zones, deleting zones that are invalidated by price movement. when the price breaks a given zone with the threshold, it is considered to be mitigated and chances of trend continuation is decent.
Candle Coloring: Uses color codes (green, red, and yellow) to represent bullish, bearish, and indecisive (doji) candles, aiding quick visual assessment.
INPUTS
1. Wick Threshold (%) : Sets the minimum wick percentage required for a candle to be considered a support or resistance candidate.
2. Breakout Threshold (%) : Determines the percentage above or below a support or resistance zone that defines a breakout condition. if breaks a zone with the set threshold then the zone will be considered mititgated.
3. Max Number of Support/Resistance Zones : Limits the maximum number of support/resistance zones displayed on the chart, ranging from 1 to 5.
4. Show Wick Percentage Labels : Toggles the display of percentage values for upper and lower wicks on each candle.
TRADE SETUP
Identifying Entry Points: Look for the formation of support or resistance zones. Wait for price to retrace to these zones. if you are willing to take risk, you can consider even zones with low delta. If you want to be more cautious you should consider zones with high delta.
Volume Confirmation: Use the volume information to confirm the strength of the zone. Strong volume differences (displayed as labels) can indicate significant market pressure at these levels.
Breakout Trades: If price breaks through a support/resistance zone by more than the breakout threshold, consider this a signal for a potential trend continuation in the breakout direction.
Risk Management: Set stop-loss levels slightly outside of the identified zones to minimize risk in case of false breakouts. This can be set in input setting for breakout threshold.
Bonus Tip : Mark your significant highs and lows from where prices have retraced multiple times in the near past and if the zone is near these levels it can serve s a strong candidate of support or resistance
Therefore, in conclusion monitor the zones, based on delta and volume presence filter out the zone, wait for price retracement to the zone, intiate the trade with stop loss below zone with a set percentage.
