Trading TimesThis script is based on the 9 and 20 EMA Strategy and combines Fibonacci Levels for added confluence.
When the price retests after breaking the EMAs, we take the trade in the same direction. That is on breakup, we take a long and on a breakdown we take a short.
VWAP can be enabled from settings for more data. institutions use it to average out their trades for both buy and sell orders.
Volume
Dominant Smoothed Volume Pro Smoothed Volume Pro provides a useful tool designed to provide traders with a deeper understanding of market dynamics by analyzing buy and sell volume across multiple timeframes. Unlike traditional volume indicators, this script normalizes volume data from lower timeframes to align with the current chart's timeframe, providing an apples-to-apples comparison. The result is a visual histogram representation of the dominant buy or sell activity, smoothed over 5 different periods to reflect momentum shifts and enhance clarity.
Core Methodology
1. Multi-Timeframe Volume Analysis
This indicator leverages data from five different lower timeframes, each chosen dynamically based on the current chart's timeframe. By aggregating and normalizing these granular data points, the indicator captures subtle shifts in buy and sell volume that might otherwise go unnoticed. This multi-timeframe approach allows for a more detailed and accurate representation of market activity.
2. Data Normalization
Normalization is a critical component of this indicator. It ensures that volume data from lower timeframes is scaled appropriately to match the total volume of the current chart's timeframe. This step eliminates discrepancies caused by varying time intervals, providing a more meaningful comparison of volume trends across different periods.
3. Smoothing for Momentum Representation
The indicator employs five customizable smoothing factors to smooth out noisy volume data.
Each smoothing factor is distinctly color-coded in the histogram and table for intuitive analysis, helping traders quickly identify prevailing trends.
Features and Benefits
➖Customizable Smoothing Factors: Choose from five different smoothing factors, each with its unique settings for line styles, colors, and extensions.
➖Normalized Buy and Sell Volume: Displays normalized buy and sell volumes as a percentage of total activity, aiding in quick decision-making.
➖Visual Cues: Color-coded columns and labels help identify dominant trends at a glance, with high-opacity fills for visual clarity.
➖Dynamic Table: A built-in table summarizes smoothed volume data for each smoothing factor, offering a quick overview of bullish and bearish percentages.
➖Momentum Signals: Detect significant shifts in volume momentum with visually distinct alerts for high relative volumes, including special symbols like "⚡" and "🔥."
Practical Applications
➖Identifying Market Sentiment: Quickly determine whether the market is dominated by buyers or sellers at any given moment.
➖Spotting Reversals: Use momentum shifts in smoothed volume to anticipate potential trend reversals.
➖Enhancing Entry and Exit Points: Combine this indicator with other technical tools to refine entry and exit points in your trading strategy.
Why This Indicator Stands Out
Many existing volume indicators focus solely on raw or single-timeframe data, which can be misleading or incomplete. This indicator sets itself apart by:
Utilizing multi-timeframe data to provide a holistic view of market activity.
Applying robust normalization techniques to ensure data consistency.
Offering advanced smoothing options to emphasize actionable momentum signals.
This unique combination of features makes it an indispensable tool for traders seeking to enhance their market analysis and decision-making process.
As always, by combining the Smoothed Volume Pro with other tools, traders ensure that they are not relying on a single indicator. This layered approach can reduce the likelihood of false signals and improve overall trading accuracy.

Volume Delta Filtered Overlay v1.1 by RamtraderbookVolume Delta Filtered Overlay v1.1 by Ramtraderbook
This indicator visually displays the volume delta directly on the price chart using colored circles. Its main goal is to highlight significant changes in the volume delta, categorizing them by direction and magnitude.
How It Works
1. Volume Delta Calculation
- Measures the difference between buying and selling volume on a lower time frame.
2. Threshold Filter
- Only displays data if the delta exceeds a minimum threshold set by the user.
3. Colors by Direction
- Bullish color: If the delta is positive (more buying).
- Bearish color: If the delta is negative (more selling).
4. Circle Placement
- Circles are placed above the candle for a positive delta and below the candle for a negative delta.
Customizable Inputs
- Delta Threshold: Defines the minimum delta value that will be plotted.
- Customizable Colors: Allows you to set different colors for positive and negative delta circles.
- **Lower Time Frame**: Scans data on a lower time frame for greater accuracy.
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.

VPSA-VTDDear Sir/Madam,
I am pleased to present the next iteration of my indicator concept, which, in my opinion, serves as a highly useful tool for analyzing markets using the Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) method or the Wyckoff methodology.
The VPSA (Volume-Price Spread Analysis), the latest version in the family of scripts I’ve developed, appears to perform its task effectively. The combination of visualizing normalized data alongside their significance, achieved through the application of Z-Score standardization, proved to be a sound solution. Therefore, I decided to take it a step further and expand my project with a complementary approach to the existing one.
Theory
At the outset, I want to acknowledge that I’m aware of the existence of other probabilistic models used in financial markets, which may describe these phenomena more accurately. However, in line with Occam's Razor, I aimed to maintain simplicity in the analysis and interpretation of the concepts below. For this reason, I focused on describing the data using the Gaussian distribution.
The data I read from the chart — primarily the closing price, the high-low price difference (spread), and volume — exhibit cyclical patterns. These cycles are described by Wyckoff's methodology, while VSA complements and presents them from a different perspective. I will refrain from explaining these methods in depth due to their complexity and broad scope. What matters is that within these cycles, various events occur, described by candles or bars in distinct ways, characterized by different spreads and volumes. When observing the chart, I notice periods of lower volatility, often accompanied by lower volumes, as well as periods of high volatility and significant volumes. It’s important to find harmony within this apparent chaos. I think that chart interpretation cannot happen without considering the broader context, but the more variables I include in the analytical process, the more challenges arise. For instance, how can I determine if something is large (wide) or small (narrow)? For elements like volume or spread, my script provides a partial answer to this question. Now, let’s get to the point.
Technical Overview
The first technique I applied is Min-Max Normalization. With its help, the script adjusts volume and spread values to a range between 0 and 1. This allows for a comparable bar chart, where a wide bar represents volume, and a narrow one represents spread. Without normalization, visually comparing values that differ by several orders of magnitude would be inconvenient. If the indicator shows that one bar has a unit spread value while another has half that value, it means the first bar is twice as large. The ratio is preserved.
The second technique I used is Z-Score Standardization. This concept is based on the normal distribution, characterized by variables such as the mean and standard deviation, which measures data dispersion around the mean. The Z-Score indicates how many standard deviations a given value deviates from the population mean. The higher the Z-Score, the more the examined object deviates from the mean. If an object has a Z-Score of 3, it falls within 0.1% of the population, making it a rare occurrence or even an anomaly. In the context of chart analysis, such strong deviations are events like climaxes, which often signal the end of a trend, though not always. In my script, I assigned specific colors to frequently occurring Z-Score values:
Below 1 – Blue
Above 1 – Green
Above 2 – Red
Above 3 – Fuchsia
These colors are applied to both spread and volume, allowing for quick visual interpretation of data.
Volume Trend Detector (VTD)
The above forms the foundation of VPSA. However, I have extended the script with a Volume Trend Detector (VTD). The idea is that when I consider market structure - by market structure, I mean the overall chart, support and resistance levels, candles, and patterns typical of spread and volume analysis as well as Wyckoff patterns - I look for price ranges where there is a lack of supply, demand, or clues left behind by Smart Money or the market's enigmatic identity known as the Composite Man. This is essential because, as these clues and behaviors of market participants — expressed through the chart’s dynamics - reflect the actions, decisions, and emotions of all players. These behaviors can help interpret the bull-bear battle and estimate the probability of their next moves, which is one of the key factors for a trader relying on technical analysis to make a trade decision.
I enhanced the script with a Volume Trend Detector, which operates in two modes:
Step-by-Step Logic
The detector identifies expected volume dynamics. For instance, when looking for signs of a lack of bullish interest, I focus on setups with decreasing volatility and volume, particularly for bullish candles. These setups are referred to as No Demand patterns, according to Tom Williams' methodology.
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
The detector can also operate based on a simple moving average, helping to identify systematic trends in declining volume, indicating potential imbalances in market forces.
I’ve designed the program to allow the selection of candle types and volume characteristics to which the script will pay particular attention and notify me of specific market conditions.
Advantages and Disadvantages
Advantages:
Unified visualization of normalized spread and volume, saving time and improving efficiency.
The use of Z-Score as a consistent and repeatable relative mechanism for marking examined values.
The use of colors in visualization as a reference to Z-Score values.
The possibility to set up a continuous alert system that monitors the market in real time.
The use of EMA (Exponential Moving Average) as a moving average for Z-Score.
The goal of these features is to save my time, which is the only truly invaluable resource.
Disadvantages:
The assumption that the data follows a normal distribution, which may lead to inaccurate interpretations.
A fixed analysis period, which may not be perfectly suited to changing market conditions.
The use of EMA as a moving average for Z-Score, listed both as an advantage and a disadvantage depending on market context.
I have included comments within the code to explain the logic behind each part. For those who seek detailed mathematical formulas, I invite you to explore the code itself.
Defining Program Parameters:
Numerical Conditions:
VPSA Period for Analysis – The number of candles analyzed.
Normalized Spread Alert Threshold – The expected normalized spread value; defines how large or small the spread should be, with a range of 0-1.00.
Normalized Volume Alert Threshold – The expected normalized volume value; defines how large or small the volume should be, with a range of 0-1.00.
Spread Z-SCORE Alert Threshold – The Z-SCORE value for the spread; determines how much the spread deviates from the average, with a range of 0-4 (a higher value can be entered, but from a logical standpoint, exceeding 4 is unnecessary).
Volume Z-SCORE Alert Threshold – The Z-SCORE value for volume; determines how much the volume deviates from the average, with a range of 0-4 (the same logical note as above applies).
Logical Conditions:
Logical conditions describe whether the expected value should be less than or equal to or greater than or equal to the numerical condition.
All four parameters accept two possibilities and are analogous to the numerical conditions.
Volume Trend Detector:
Volume Trend Detector Period for Analysis – The analysis period, indicating the number of candles examined.
Method of Trend Determination – The method used to determine the trend. Possible values: Step by Step or SMA.
Trend Direction – The expected trend direction. Possible values: Upward or Downward.
Candle Type – The type of candle taken into account. Possible values: Bullish, Bearish, or Any.
The last available setting is the option to enable a joint alert for VPSA and VTD.
When enabled, VPSA will trigger on the last closed candle, regardless of the VTD analysis period.
Example Use Cases (Labels Visible in the Script Window Indicate Triggered Alerts):
The provided labels in the chart window mark where specific conditions were met and alerts were triggered.
Summary and Reflections
The program I present is a strong tool in the ongoing "game" with the Composite Man.
However, it requires familiarity and understanding of the underlying methodologies to fully utilize its potential.
Of course, like any technical analysis tool, it is not without flaws. There is no indicator that serves as a perfect Grail, accurately signaling Buy or Sell in every case.
I would like to thank those who have read through my thoughts to the end and are willing to take a closer look at my work by using this script.
If you encounter any errors or have suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact me.
I wish you good health and accurately interpreted market structures, leading to successful trades!

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.

█ Strategy, How it Works: Detailed Explanation
The BBP Strategy with Volume-Percentile TP utilizes several interconnected components to analyze market data and generate trading signals. Here's an overview with essential equations:
🔶 Core Indicators and Calculations
1. Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
- **Purpose:** Smoothens price data to identify trends.
- **Formula:**
EMA_t = (Close_t * (2 / (lengthInput + 1))) + (EMA_(t-1) * (1 - (2 / (lengthInput + 1))))
- Usage: Baseline for Bull and Bear Power.
2. Bull and Bear Power:
- Bull Power: `BullPower = High_t - EMA_t`
- Bear Power: `BearPower = Low_t - EMA_t`
- BBP:** `BBP = BullPower + BearPower`
- Interpretation: Positive BBP indicates bullish strength, negative indicates bearish.
3. Z-Score Calculation:
- Purpose: Normalizes BBP to assess deviation from the mean.
- Formula:
Z-Score = (BBP_t - bbp_mean) / bbp_std
- Components:
- `bbp_mean` = SMA of BBP over `zLength` periods.
- `bbp_std` = Standard deviation of BBP over `zLength` periods.
- Usage: Identifies overbought or oversold conditions based on thresholds.
🔶 Volume Analysis
1. Volume Moving Average (`vol_sma`):
vol_sma = (Volume_1 + Volume_2 + ... + Volume_vol_period) / vol_period
2. Volume Multiplier (`vol_mult`):
vol_mult = Current Volume / vol_sma
- Thresholds:
- High Volume: `vol_mult > 2.0`
- Medium Volume: `1.5 < vol_mult ≤ 2.0`
- Low Volume: `1.0 < vol_mult ≤ 1.5`
🔶 Percentile Analysis
1. Percentile Calculation (`calcPercentile`):
Percentile = (Number of values ≤ Current Value / perc_period) * 100
2. Thresholds:
- High Percentile: >90%
- Medium Percentile: >80%
- Low Percentile: >70%
🔶 Dynamic Take-Profit Mechanism
1. ATR-Based Targets:
TP1 Price = Entry Price ± (ATR * atrMult1 * TP_Factor)
TP2 Price = Entry Price ± (ATR * atrMult2 * TP_Factor)
TP3 Price = Entry Price ± (ATR * atrMult3 * TP_Factor)
- ATR Calculation:
ATR_t = (True Range_1 + True Range_2 + ... + True Range_baseAtrLength) / baseAtrLength
2. Adjustment Factors:
TP_Factor = (vol_score + price_score) / 2
- **vol_score** and **price_score** are based on current volume and price percentiles.
Local performance
🔶 Entry and Exit Logic
1. Long Entry: If Z-Score crosses above 1.618, then Enter Long.
2. Short Entry: If Z-Score crosses below -1.618, then Enter Short.
3. Exiting Positions:
If Long and Z-Score crosses below 0:
Exit Long
If Short and Z-Score crosses above 0:
Exit Short
4. Take-Profit Execution:
- Set multiple exit orders at dynamically calculated TP levels based on ATR and adjusted by `TP_Factor`.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy determines trade direction using the Z-Score from the BBP indicator:
- Long Positions:
- Condition: Z-Score crosses above 1.618.
- Short Positions:
- Condition: Z-Score crosses below -1.618.
- Exiting Trades:
- Long Exit: Z-Score drops below 0.
- Short Exit: Z-Score rises above 0.
This approach aligns trades with prevailing market trends, increasing the likelihood of successful outcomes.

Distribution & Follow-Through Day MarkerMarks D or F on candles based on IBD rule.
Distribution day: The loss must be at least -0.2%; the volume is higher than prior trading day.
Follow through day: The gain must be at least 1.2%; the volume is higher than prior trading day.
Volume Standard Deviation Alert GusPurpose
The script detects and alerts traders when the volume of a trading asset significantly exceeds a calculated threshold based on the standard deviation of volume over a specified lookback period. It optionally filters these alerts based on whether the price action is bullish or bearish.
Key Components
Inputs
lookback (default: 20)
The number of bars to consider when calculating the moving average and standard deviation of volume.
stdDevFactor (default: 2.0)
The multiplier for the standard deviation to determine the threshold for a volume spike.
alertOnClose (default: true)
Determines whether alerts should only be triggered after the bar has closed.
checkBullBear (default: false)
Enables filtering of alerts based on the bullishness or bearishness of the bar.
Calculations
volSMA
The simple moving average (SMA) of the volume over the lookback period.
volStd
The standard deviation of the volume over the lookback period.
threshold
The alert threshold is calculated as:
Threshold
=
volSMA
+
(
stdDevFactor
×
volStd
)
Threshold=volSMA+(stdDevFactor×volStd)
isBullish & isBearish
Determines whether the current bar is bullish (close > open) or bearish (close < open).
volumeSpikeCondition
A condition that triggers when the current volume exceeds the calculated threshold.
bullishCondition & bearishCondition
Refines the spike condition by requiring the bar to be bullish or bearish when checkBullBear is enabled.
finalCondition
The ultimate alert condition based on the user’s preference for bullish/bearish filtering.
finalTrigger
Ensures the alert only triggers at bar close if alertOnClose is set to true.
Visualization
Plots the SMA of the volume (volSMA) and the threshold line (threshold), helping traders visually understand the conditions.
Histograms the current volume and colors the bars:
Red: Volume exceeds the threshold.
Blue: Volume is below the threshold.
Alerts
The script generates an alert message when the finalTrigger condition is met:
"Bullish Volume Spike!" if the bar is bullish.
"Bearish Volume Spike!" if the bar is bearish.
"High Volume Spike!" if no bull/bear filter is applied.
Alerts are sent using alert() with the message and set to trigger once per bar close.
Usage
Traders can use this script to identify unusual volume activity, which often precedes significant price movements.
Customizability allows traders to tune the lookback period, standard deviation multiplier, and whether to filter for bullish/bearish spikes.
Visual and audible cues help in identifying important market events in real time.
This indicator is particularly useful for spotting market breakouts or breakdowns driven by high trading activity.
Previous Candle Sweep IndicatorThis script identifies candlesticks where the current candle's high is higher than the previous candle's high, and the current candle's low is lower than the previous candle's low. If both conditions are met, the candle's body is highlighted in blue on the chart, allowing traders to quickly spot these patterns.
Features:
Highlights candles with both higher highs and lower lows.
Uses clear visual cues (blue body) for easy identification.
Ideal for traders looking to identify specific volatility patterns or reversals.
Multi-Timeframe VWAP Strategy [JARUTIR]Multi-Timeframe VWAP with Price Above VWAP Marker
This indicator allows you to view the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) across multiple timeframes on a single chart. The VWAP is a popular technical analysis tool used by traders to determine the average price of an asset weighted by volume. It helps identify the overall market trend and is especially useful for intraday trading.
Key Features :
Multiple Timeframes: Choose from 1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day VWAPs. You can enable or disable the VWAP for any timeframe based on your preference.
Customizable: Easily toggle on/off the VWAP for each timeframe via checkboxes in the settings.
Price Above VWAP Marker: A clear green up arrow is displayed above the price bar whenever the price is above the current VWAP, helping you quickly spot potential bullish signals.
Flexible & Easy to Use: Adjust the settings for any timeframe and see the VWAPs on your chart without clutter. Whether you are trading in the short term or analyzing longer-term trends, this tool provides you with the flexibility you need.
How to Use :
VWAP as Trend Indicator: The VWAP is commonly used to identify whether the price is trending above or below the average price for the session. Price above the VWAP generally signals bullish momentum, while price below the VWAP can indicate bearish pressure.
Price Above VWAP Marker: The green up arrow is your signal for when the price is above the VWAP, which can be used as a potential entry point for long trades.
Customize Timeframes: Whether you're focusing on ultra-short-term movements (like 1-min or 5-min) or need a broader view (like 1-hour or 1-day), this indicator lets you tailor the analysis to your preferred time horizon.
Ideal For :
Intraday Traders looking for quick signals on different timeframes.
Swing Traders who want to track the overall market trend with multiple VWAP levels.
Scalpers needing to monitor fast price movements alongside volume-weighted averages
