OBV by readCrypto
-------------------------------------
OBV is used as a leading indicator to predict stock price movements by measuring changes in trading volume.
Reflecting the cumulative value of trading volume,
- When the price rises, if the trading volume increases, OBV rises,
- When the price falls, if the trading volume decreases, OBV falls.
Therefore, the movement of the OBV indicator must be checked along with the price movement, and it has the disadvantage of being unreliable for coins (tokens) with low trading volume.
---------------------------------------
(First interpretation method)
By adding a signal line for the OBV indicator,
- If the OBV indicator moves above the signal line, it is likely to show an upward trend,
- If the OBV indicator moves beyond the signal line, it is likely to show a downward trend.
This interpretation method is difficult to use in actual trading strategies because the OBV indicator often moves up and down repeatedly based on the signal line.
Therefore, it is recommended to use this interpretation method as reference when analyzing charts.
-------------------------------
(Second interpretation method)
Draw support and resistance lines based on the high and low points of the OBV indicator
- If the OBV indicator breaks through the previous high point, it is likely to show an upward trend,
- If the OBV indicator breaks through the previous low point, it is likely to show a downward trend.
This interpretation method is a bit more reliable than the first interpretation method, but it has the disadvantage of having to consider support and resistance lines separately based on the high and low points.
-
To compensate for this, a High line for the high point and a Low line for the low point were added.
- If the OBV indicator shows an upward breakout of each line (Low, HL2, High), the price is likely to rise,
- If the OBV indicator shows a downward breakout of each line (Low, HL2, High), the price is likely to fall.
-
Also, the Low and High lines can be interpreted like Bollinger Bands.
That is, if the Low and High lines show a contraction, the price is likely to move sideways, and if they show an expansion, the price is likely to show a trend.
Therefore, if the High line breaks upward in a contracted state,
- It is likely to show an upward trend,
- If the Low line breaks downward, it is likely to show a downward trend.
In an expanded state, you should focus on finding the point to realize profits rather than conducting new transactions.
--------------------------------
It is not easy to interpret the change in actual transaction volume and use it to create a trading strategy.
In particular, it is more difficult in the coin market where multiple exchanges are linked to show movements for one coin (token).
Therefore, the coin market is actively conducting transactions without referring to trading volume at all by following trends.
However, I think that if you interpret the change in trading volume and use it to find a trading point, it can help you find a more accurate trading point.
In that sense, I think that an indicator that adds the High and Low lines of the OBV indicator can be used as meaningful reference material.

OBV는 거래량의 변화를 측정하여 주가 움직임을 예측하는 선행 지표로 활용됩니다.
거래량의 누적값을 반영하여
- 가격이 상승할 때 거래량이 증가면 OBV가 상승하고,
- 가격이 하락할 때 거래량이 줄면 OBV가 하락하게 됩니다.
따라서, 가격의 움직임과 함께 OBV 지표의 움직임을 확인하여야 하고 거래량이 적은 코인(토큰)에서는 신뢰성이 떨어지는 단점도 가지고 있습니다.
---------------------------------------
(첫번째 해석 방법)
OBV 지표에 대한 Signal선을 추가하여
- OBV 지표가 Signal선 이상에서 이동하게 되면 상승세를 보일 가능성이 높고,
- OBV 지표가 Signal선 이항에서 이동하게 되면 하락세를 보일 가능성이 높습니다.
이러한 해석 방법은 Signal선을 기준으로 OBV 지표가 반복적으로 위아래로 움직임을 보이는 경우가 많기 때문에 실제 거래 전략에 활용되기가 어려운 면이 있습니다.
따라서, 이러한 해설 방법은 차트 분석을 할 때 참고 자료로 활용하는 것이 좋습니다.
-------------------------------
(두번째 해석 방법)
OBV 지표의 고점과 저점을 기준하여 지지와 저항선을 그려
- OBV 지표가 이전 고점을 상향 돌파하면 상승세를 보일 가능성이 높고,
- OBV 지표가 이전 저점을 하향 돌파하면 하락세를 보일 가능성이 높습니다.
이러한 해석 방법은 첫번째 해석 방법보다 좀 더 신뢰성이 있는 방법이지만, 고점과 저점을 기준으로 지지와 저항선을 나누어 생각해야 하는 단점이 있습니다.
-
이를 보완하고자 고점에 대한 High선과 저점에 대한 Low선을 추가하였습니다.
- OBV 지표가 각 선(Low, HL2, High)을 상향 돌파하는 모습을 보이면 가격이 상승할 가능성이 높고,
- OBV 지표가 각 선(Low, HL2, High)을 하향 돌파하는 모습을 보이면 가격이 하락할 가능성이 높습니다.
-
또한, Low선과 High선을 볼린저밴드와 같이 해석할 수 있습니다.
즉, Low선과 High선이 수축하는 모습을 보이면 가격은 횡보할 가능성이 높고, 확장하는 모습을 보이면 가격은 추세를 나타낼 가능성이 높습니다.
따라서, 수축한 상태에서
- High선을 상향 돌파하게 되면 상승세를 나타낼 가능성이 높고,
- Low선을 하향 돌파하게 되면 하락세를 나타낼 가능성이 높습니다.
확장된 상태에서는 신규 거래를 진행하기 보다 수익 실현할 시점을 찾는데 집중해야 합니다.
--------------------------------
실제 거래량의 변화를 해석하여 거래 전략을 만드는데 활용하기가 쉽지 않습니다.
특히, 하나의 코인(토큰)에 대해서 여러 개의 거래소가 연동되어 움직임을 나타내는 코인 시장에서는 더욱 어려움이 있습니다.
따라서, 코인 시장은 추세 추종으로 아예 거래량을 참고하지 않고 거래를 진행하는 방법이 활성화되어 있기도 합니다.
하지만, 거래량의 변화를 해석하여 거래 시점을 찾는데 활용한다면 보다 정확한 거래 시점을 찾는데 도움을 받을 수 있다고 생각합니다.
그러한 의미에서 OBV 지표의 High선과 Low선을 추가한 지표가 의미 있는 참고 자료로 활용될 수 있다고 생각합니다.

WaveNode [ParadoxAlgo]WaveNode is an open-source, multi-framework breakout tool that blends Donchian highs/lows, Bollinger-band volatility, volume spikes and an ATR buffer into one clean visual package. It ships with five one-click “Trading Style” presets (Scalping → Long-Term Investing) so users can drop it on any chart, pick a style, and immediately see context-aware breakout triangles and adaptive channels—no manual tuning required.
What the Indicator does
WaveNode tracks the previous bar’s highest high and lowest low to build a Donchian envelope, wraps price in a two-sigma Bollinger shell to gauge contraction/expansion, then confirms breakouts only when:
• Price closes beyond the prior Donchian extreme plus an ATR % buffer.
• Volume exceeds its moving-average × style-specific multiplier.
• Volatility is expanding (current BB width > its own average).
When all filters line up, a blue (bull) or red (bear) triangle prints on the bar. The channel body is softly filled with a neutral gradient so signals stay visible against any theme.
Inputs & presets
Trading Style
Scalping · Day Trading · Swing Trading · Short-Term Investing · Long-Term Investing
Dropdown auto-loads lengths, multipliers and buffers for the chosen horizon.
All other parameters are hard-coded inside each preset to keep the UI minimal; feel free to fork the code and expose more sliders if you prefer.
How to read it
1. Wait for expansion – when the shaded channel widens after a squeeze, conditions ripen for a move.
2. Watch the triangles – a triangle marks the bar where price, volume and volatility align.
3. Use your own risk plan – WaveNode is a signal generator, not a complete trading system.

Dskyz (DAFE) Aurora Divergence - Dskyz (DAFE) Aurora Divergence Indicator
Advanced Divergence Detection for Traders. Unleash the power of divergence trading with this cutting-edge indicator that combines price and volume analysis to spot high-probability reversal signals.
🧠 What Is It?
The Dskyz (DAFE) Aurora Divergence Indicator is designed to identify bullish and bearish divergences between the price trend and the On Balance Volume (OBV) trend. Divergence occurs when the price of an asset and a technical indicator (in this case, OBV) move in opposite directions, signaling a potential reversal. This indicator uses linear regression slopes to calculate the trends of both price and OBV over a specified lookback period, detecting when these two metrics are diverging. When a divergence is detected, it highlights potential reversal points with visually striking aurora bands, orbs, and labels, making it easy for traders to spot key signals.
⚙️ Inputs & How to Use Them
The indicator is highly customizable, with inputs grouped under "⚡ DAFE Aurora Settings" for clarity. Here’s how each input works:
Lookback Period: Determines how many bars are used to calculate the price and OBV slopes. Higher values detect longer-term trends (e.g., 20 for 1H charts), while lower values are more responsive to short-term movements.
Price Slope Threshold: Sets the minimum slope value for the price to be considered in an uptrend or downtrend. A value of 0 allows all slopes to be considered, while higher values filter for stronger trends.
OBV Slope Threshold: Similar to the price slope threshold but for OBV. Helps filter out weak volume trends.
Aurora Band Width: Adjusts the width of the visual bands that highlight divergence areas. Wider bands make the indicator more visible but may clutter the chart.
Divergence Sensitivity: Scales the strength of the divergence signals. Higher values make the indicator more sensitive to smaller divergences.
Minimum Strength: Filters out weak signals by only showing divergences above this strength level. A default of 0.3 is recommended for beginners.
Signal Cooldown (Bars): Prevents multiple signals from appearing too close together. Default is 5 bars, reducing chart clutter and helping traders focus on significant signals.
These inputs allow traders to fine-tune the indicator to match their trading style and timeframe.
🚀 What Makes It Unique?
This indicator stands out with its innovative features:
Price-Volume Divergence: Combines price trend (slope) and OBV trend for more reliable signals than price-only divergences.
Aurora Bands: Dynamic visual bands that highlight divergence zones, making it easier to spot potential reversals at a glance.
Interactive Dashboard: Displays real-time information on trend direction, volume flow, signal type, strength, and recommended actions (e.g., "Consider Buying" or "Consider Selling").
Signal Cooldown: Ensures only the most significant divergences are shown, reducing noise and improving usability.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for both bullish and bearish divergences, allowing traders to stay informed even when not actively monitoring the chart.
Beginner Guide: Explains the indicator’s visuals (e.g., aqua orbs for bullish signals, fuchsia orbs for bearish signals), making it accessible for new users.
🎯 Why It Works
The indicator’s effectiveness lies in its use of price-volume divergence, a well-established concept in technical analysis. When the price trend and OBV trend diverge, it often signals a potential reversal because the underlying volume support (or lack thereof) is not aligning with the price action. For example:
Bullish Divergence: Occurs when the price is making lower lows, but the OBV is making higher lows, indicating weakening selling pressure and potential upward reversal.
Bearish Divergence: Occurs when the price is making higher highs, but the OBV is making lower highs, suggesting weakening buying pressure and potential downward reversal.
The use of linear regression ensures smooth and accurate trend calculations over the specified lookback period. The divergence strength is then normalized and filtered based on user-defined thresholds, ensuring only high-quality signals are displayed. Additionally, the cooldown period prevents signal overload, allowing traders to focus on the most significant opportunities.
🧬 Indicator Recommendation
Best For: Traders looking to identify potential trend reversals in any market, especially those where volume data is reliable (e.g., stocks, futures, forex).
Timeframes: Suitable for all timeframes. Adjust the lookback period accordingly—smaller values for shorter timeframes (e.g., 1H), larger for longer ones (e.g., 4H or daily).
Pair With: Support and resistance levels, trend lines, other oscillators (e.g., RSI, MACD) for confirmation, and volume profile tools for deeper analysis.
Tips:
Look for divergences at key support/resistance levels for higher-probability setups.
Pay attention to signal strength; higher strength divergences are often more reliable.
Use the dashboard to quickly assess market conditions before entering a trade.
Set up alerts to catch divergences even when not actively watching the chart.

VWMACD-MFI-OBV Composite# MACD-MFI-OBV Composite
A dynamic volume-based technical indicator combining Volume-Weighted MACD, Money Flow Index (MFI), and normalized On Balance Volume (OBV). This composite indicator excels at identifying breakouts and strong trend movements through multiple volume confirmations, making it particularly effective for momentum and high-volatility trading environments.
## Overview
The indicator integrates trend, momentum, and cumulative volume analysis into a unified visualization system. Each component is carefully normalized to enable direct comparison, while the background color system provides instant trend recognition. This version is specifically optimized for breakout detection and strong trend confirmation.
## Core Components
### Volume-Weighted MACD
Visualized through the background color system, this enhanced MACD implementation uses Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) instead of traditional EMAs. This modification ensures greater sensitivity to volume-supported price movements while filtering out less significant low-volume price changes. The background alternates between green (bullish) and red (bearish) to provide immediate trend feedback.
### Money Flow Index (MFI)
Displayed as the purple line, the MFI functions as a volume-weighted momentum oscillator. Operating within a natural 0-100 range, it helps identify potential overbought and oversold conditions while confirming volume support for price movements. The MFI is particularly effective at validating breakout momentum.
### Normalized On Balance Volume (OBV)
The white line represents normalized OBV, providing insight into cumulative buying and selling pressure. The normalization process scales OBV to match other components while maintaining its ability to confirm price trends through volume analysis. This component excels at identifying strong breakout movements and volume surges.
## Signal Integration
The indicator generates its most powerful signals when all three components align, particularly during breakout conditions:
Strong Bullish Signals develop when:
- Background shifts to green (VWMACD bullish)
- MFI shows strong upward momentum
- OBV demonstrates sharp volume accumulation
Strong Bearish Signals emerge when:
- Background turns red (VWMACD bearish)
- MFI exhibits downward momentum
- OBV shows significant volume distribution
## Market Application
This indicator variant is specifically designed for:
Breakout Trading:
The OBV component provides excellent sensitivity to volume surges, making it ideal for breakout confirmation and momentum validation.
Trend Following:
Sharp OBV movements combined with MFI momentum help identify and confirm strong trending conditions.
High Volatility Markets:
The indicator's design excels in active, volatile markets where clear signal generation is crucial for decision-making.
## Technical Implementation
Default Parameters:
Volume-Weighted MACD maintains traditional periods (12/26/9) while leveraging volume weighting. MFI uses standard 14-period calculation with 80/20 overbought/oversold thresholds. All components undergo normalization over a 100-period lookback for stable comparison.
Visual Elements:
- Background: VWMACD trend indication (green/red)
- Purple Line: Money Flow Index
- White Line: Normalized OBV
- Yellow Line: Combined signal (arithmetic mean of normalized components)
- Reference Lines: Key levels at 20, 50, and 80
## Trading Methodology
The indicator supports a systematic approach to breakout and momentum trading:
1. Breakout Identification
Monitor for background color changes accompanied by significant OBV movement, indicating potential breakout conditions.
2. Volume Surge Confirmation
Examine OBV slope and magnitude to confirm genuine breakout scenarios versus false moves.
3. Momentum Validation
Use MFI to confirm breakout strength and identify potential exhaustion points.
4. Combined Signal Analysis
The yellow line provides a unified view of all components, helping identify high-probability breakout opportunities.
## Interpretation Guidelines
Breakout Confirmation:
Strong breakouts typically show alignment of all three components with notable OBV surge. This configuration often precedes significant price movements.
Trend Strength:
Continuous OBV expansion during trends, supported by steady MFI readings, suggests sustained momentum.
## Market Selection
Optimal Markets Include:
- High-beta growth stocks
- Momentum-driven securities
- Stocks with significant volatility
- Active trading instruments
- Examples: TSLA, NVDA, growth stocks
## Version Information
Current Version: 2.0.0

The OBV tracks volume flow by summing volumes based on price changes. Positive volume is added when prices rise, and negative volume is subtracted when prices fall. The result is smoothed to detect meaningful trends in volume. A volume spread is derived from the difference between the smoothed OBV and cumulative volume. This is then adjusted by the price deviation to generate the shadow spread, which highlights critical volume-driven price levels.
The shadow spread is added to either the high or low price, depending on its sign, producing a refined OBV output. This serves as the main source for the subsequent TSI calculation. The TSI is a momentum oscillator calculated using double-smoothed price changes. It provides an accurate measure of trend strength and direction.
Various moving average options, such as EMA, DEMA, or TEMA, are applied to the smoothed OBV for additional trend filtering. Users can select their preferred type and length to suit their trading strategy. Trendlines are plotted to visualize the overall direction. When a significant change in trend is detected, up or down arrows indicate potential buy or sell signals. The script identifies key pivot points based on the highest and lowest levels within a defined period. These pivots help pinpoint reversal zones.
The indicator offers customization options, allowing users to adjust the OBV length for smoothing, choose from various moving average types, and fine-tune the short, long, and signal periods for TSI. Additionally, users can toggle visibility for trendlines, signals, and pivots to suit their preferences.
This indicator is ideal for practical use cases such as spotting potential trend reversals by observing TSI crossovers and pivot levels, anticipating breakouts from key price levels using the shadow spread, and validating trends by aligning TSI signals with OBV and moving averages.
The OBV TSI Indicator is a versatile tool designed to enhance decision-making in trading by combining volume and momentum analysis. Its flexibility and visual aids make it suitable for traders of all experience levels. By leveraging its insights, you can confidently navigate market trends and improve your trading outcomes.
OBV Divergence Indicator [TradingFinder] On-Balance Vol Reversal🔵 Introduction
The On-Balance Volume (OBV) indicator, introduced by Joe Granville in 1963, is a powerful technical analysis tool used to measure buying and selling pressure based on trading volume and price.
By aggregating trading volume—adding it on positive days and subtracting it on negative days—OBV creates a cumulative line that reflects market volume pressure, making it valuable for confirming trends, identifying entry and exit points, and forecasting potential price movements.
Divergences between price and OBV often provide significant signals. A bearish divergence occurs when the price forms higher highs while the OBV line forms lower highs. This discrepancy indicates that upward momentum is weakening, increasing the likelihood of a downward trend.
In contrast, a bullish divergence happens when the price makes lower lows, but the OBV line forms higher lows. This suggests increasing buying pressure and the potential for an upward trend reversal.
For instance, if the price is rising but the OBV trendline is falling, it may signal a bearish divergence, warning of a possible price decline. Conversely, if the price is falling while the OBV line is rising, this could signal a bullish divergence, indicating a possible price recovery. These signals are particularly useful for identifying market turning points.
OBV often acts as a leading indicator, moving ahead of price changes. For example, a rising OBV alongside stable or declining prices can signal an impending upward breakout.
Conversely, a declining OBV with rising prices may indicate that the current uptrend is losing strength. Traders using this strategy often consider entering positions at breakout levels while setting stop losses near recent swing highs or lows to manage risk effectively.
This integration highlights how OBV divergences can provide actionable insights for predicting price movements and managing trades efficiently.

🔵 How to Use
The OBV indicator, as a cumulative tool, assists analysts in comparing volume and price changes to identify new trends and key levels for entering or exiting trades. Beyond confirming existing trends, it is particularly effective in analyzing positive and negative divergences between price and volume, providing valuable signals for trading decisions.
🟣 Bullish Divergence
A bullish divergence occurs when the price continues its downward or stable trend, but the OBV line starts rising, forming a higher low compared to its previous low. This suggests increasing volume on up days relative to down days and often signals a reversal to the upside.
For instance, if an asset's price stabilizes near a support level but the OBV line shows an upward trend, this divergence could present an opportunity to enter a long position.
🟣 Bearish Divergence
A bearish divergence occurs when the price forms higher highs, but the OBV line declines, creating lower highs compared to previous peaks. This indicates decreasing volume on up days relative to down days and often acts as a warning for a reversal to the downside.
For example, if an asset’s price approaches a resistance level while OBV starts declining, this divergence may signal the beginning of a downtrend and could indicate a good time to exit long trades or enter short positions.
🔵 Setting
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.
You can enable or disable labels to highlight key levels or divergences and tables to show numerical details like values and divergence types. These options allow for a customized chart display.
🔵 Table
The following table breaks down the main features of the oscillator. It covers four critical categories: Exist, Consecutive, Divergence Quality, and Change Phase Indicator.
Exist : If divergence is detected, a "+" will appear in this row.
Consecutive: Shows the number of consecutive divergences that have formed in a short period.
Divergence Quality : Evaluates the quality of the divergence based on the number of occurrences. One is labeled "Normal," two are "Good," and three or more are considered "Strong."
Change Phase Indicator : If a phase change is detected between two oscillation peaks, this is marked in the table.
🔵 Conclusion
The OBV (On Balance Volume) indicator is a simple yet effective tool in technical analysis that combines volume and price changes to provide a comprehensive view of market buying and selling pressure. By identifying positive and negative divergences, OBV enables analysts to detect early signs of trend reversals and refine their trading strategies.
Divergences in OBV often precede price changes, making it a leading indicator for predicting market movements. Using OBV alongside other technical tools can enhance decision-making accuracy and help traders identify better entry and exit points. However, it is essential to consider the limitations of OBV, such as the potential for signal errors and the impact of sudden news events.
Ultimately, OBV serves as a complementary tool in technical analysis, aiding in trend identification, signal confirmation, and risk management. A thoughtful application of this indicator, in combination with other analytical tools, can create valuable opportunities for profiting in financial markets.
Effective Volume (ADV) v3Effective Volume (ADV) v3: Enhanced Accumulation/Distribution Analysis Tool
This indicator is an updated version of the original script by cI8DH, now upgraded to Pine Script v5 with added functionality, including the Volume Multiple feature. The tool is designed for analyzing Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) volume, referred to here as "Effective Volume," which represents the volume impact in alignment with price direction, providing insights into bullish or bearish trends through volume.
Accumulation/Distribution Volume Analysis : The script calculates and visualizes Effective Volume (ADV), helping traders assess volume strength in relation to price action. By factoring in bullish or bearish alignment, Effective Volume highlights points where volume strongly supports price movements.
Volume Multiple Feature for Volume Multiplication : The Volume Multiple setting (default value 2) allows you to set a multiplier to identify bars where Effective Volume exceeds the previous bar’s volume by a specified factor. This feature aids in pinpointing significant shifts in volume intensity, often associated with potential trend changes.
Customizable Aggregation Types : Users can choose from three volume aggregation types:
Simple - Standard SMA (Simple Moving Average) for averaging Effective Volume
Smoothed - RMA (Recursive Moving Average) for a less volatile, smoother line
Cumulative - Accumulated Effective Volume for ongoing trend analysis
Volume Divisor : The “Divide Vol by” setting (default 1 million) scales down the Effective Volume value for easier readability. This allows Effective Volume data to be aligned with the scale of the price chart.
Visualization Elements
Effective Volume Columns : The Effective Volume bar plot changes color based on volume direction:
Green Bars : Bullish Effective Volume (volume aligns with price movement upwards)
Red Bars : Bearish Effective Volume (volume aligns with price movement downwards)
Moving Average Lines :
Volume Moving Average - A gray line representing the moving average of total volume.
A/D Moving Average - A blue line showing the moving average of Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) Effective Volume.
High ADV Indicator : A “^” symbol appears on bars where the Effective Volume meets or exceeds the Volume Multiple threshold, highlighting bars with significant volume increase.
How to Use

Identify Volume Multipliers with Volume Multiple : Adjust Volume Multiple to track when Effective Volume has notably increased, signaling potential shifts or strengthening trends.
Adjust Volume Display : Use the volume divisor setting to scale Effective Volume for clarity, especially when viewing alongside price data on higher timeframes.
With customizable parameters, this script provides a flexible, enhanced perspective on Effective Volume for traders analyzing volume-based trends and reversals.
OBV based on MADescription:
This indicator calculates On-Balance Volume (OBV) based on the direction of a Simple Moving Average (SMA). Instead of using price movements, this OBV adds or subtracts volume depending on whether the SMA is rising or falling.
SMA-based OBV: When the SMA rises, the volume is added to the OBV. When the SMA falls, the volume is subtracted from the OBV. This allows traders to observe cumulative volume in relation to the wave patterns created by the SMA.
SMA Period: The period of the SMA can be customized, allowing traders to adjust it according to the wave size they want to observe.
While the cumulative volume indicator already exists, traders who analyze volume patterns can use this indicator to more easily conduct volume analysis across different wave sizes.
Inputs:
SMA Period: Defines the lookback period for calculating the Simple Moving Average (default is 25).
Ideal for:
Traders who want to analyze volume flow relative to moving average trends, rather than price movements. This can help identify underlying strength or weakness in market trends.
説明:
このインジケーターは、単純移動平均(SMA)の方向に基づいてオンバランス・ボリューム(OBV)を計算します。価格の動きではなく、SMAが上昇しているときは出来高を加算し、SMAが下降しているときは出来高を減算します。
SMA基準のOBV: SMAが上昇している場合はOBVに出来高が加算され、SMAが下降している場合は出来高が減算されます。これにより、SMAが作る波形に即した累積出来高を観察することができます。
SMA期間: トレーダーが見たい波のサイズ感に応じて、SMAの期間をカスタマイズできます。

Six PillarsGeneral Overview
The "Six Pillars" indicator is a comprehensive trading tool that combines six different technical analysis methods to provide a holistic view of market conditions.
These six pillars are:
Trend
Momentum
Directional Movement (DM)
Stochastic
Fractal
On-Balance Volume (OBV)
The indicator calculates the state of each pillar and presents them in an easy-to-read table format. It also compares the current timeframe with a user-defined comparison timeframe to offer a multi-timeframe analysis.
A key feature of this indicator is the Confluence Strength meter. This unique metric quantifies the overall agreement between the six pillars across both timeframes, providing a score out of 100. A higher score indicates stronger agreement among the pillars, suggesting a more reliable trading signal.
I also included a visual cue in the form of candle coloring. When all six pillars agree on a bullish or bearish direction, the candle is colored green or red, respectively. This feature allows traders to quickly identify potential high-probability trade setups.
The Six Pillars indicator is designed to work across multiple timeframes, offering a comparison between the current timeframe and a user-defined comparison timeframe. This multi-timeframe analysis provides traders with a more comprehensive understanding of market dynamics.
Origin and Inspiration
The Six Pillars indicator was inspired by the work of Dr. Barry Burns, author of "Trend Trading for Dummies" and his concept of "5 energies." (Trend, Momentum, Cycle, Support/Resistance, Scale) I was intrigued by Dr. Burns' approach to analyzing market dynamics and decided to put my own twist upon his ideas.
Comparing the Six Pillars to Dr. Burns' 5 energies, you'll notice I kept Trend and Momentum, but I swapped out Cycle, Support/Resistance, and Scale for Directional Movement, Stochastic, Fractal, and On-Balance Volume. These changes give you a more dynamic view of market strength, potential reversals, and volume confirmation all in one package.
What Makes This Indicator Unique
The standout feature of the Six Pillars indicator is its Confluence Strength meter. This feature calculates the overall agreement between the six pillars, providing traders with a clear, numerical representation of signal strength.
The strength is calculated by considering the state of each pillar in both the current and comparison timeframes, resulting in a score out of 100.
Here's how it calculates the strength:
It considers the state of each pillar in both the current timeframe and the comparison timeframe.
For each pillar, the absolute value of its state is taken. This means that both strongly bullish (2) and strongly bearish (-2) states contribute equally to the strength.
The absolute values for all six pillars are summed up for both timeframes, resulting in two sums: current_sum and alternate_sum.
These sums are then added together to get a total_sum.
The total_sum is divided by 24 (the maximum possible sum if all pillars were at their strongest states in both timeframes) and multiplied by 100 to get a percentage.
The result is rounded to the nearest integer and capped at a minimum of 1.
This calculation method ensures that the Confluence Strength meter takes into account not only the current timeframe but also the comparison timeframe, providing a more robust measure of overall market sentiment. The resulting score, ranging from 1 to 100, gives traders a clear and intuitive measure of how strongly the pillars agree, with higher scores indicating stronger potential signals.
This approach to measuring signal strength is unique in that it doesn't just rely on a single aspect of price action or volume. Instead, it takes into account multiple factors, providing a more robust and reliable indication of potential market moves. The higher the Confluence Strength score, the more confident traders can be in the signal.
The Confluence Strength meter helps traders in several ways:
It provides a quick and easy way to gauge the overall market sentiment.
It helps prioritize potential trades by identifying the strongest signals.
It can be used as a filter to avoid weaker setups and focus on high-probability trades.
It offers an additional layer of confirmation for other trading strategies or indicators.
By combining the Six Pillars analysis with the Confluence Strength meter, I've created a powerful tool that not only identifies potential trading opportunities but also quantifies their strength, giving traders a significant edge in their decision-making process.
How the Pillars Work (What Determines Bullish or Bearish)
While developing this indicator, I selected and configured six key components that work together to provide a comprehensive view of market conditions. Each pillar is set up to complement the others, creating a synergistic effect that offers traders a more nuanced understanding of price action and volume.
Trend Pillar: Based on two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) - a fast EMA (8 period) and a slow EMA (21 period). It determines the trend by comparing these EMAs, with stronger trends indicated when the fast EMA is significantly above or below the slow EMA.
Directional Movement (DM) Pillar: Utilizes the Average Directional Index (ADX) with a default period of 14. It measures trend strength, with values above 25 indicating a strong trend. It also considers the Positive and Negative Directional Indicators (DI+ and DI-) to determine trend direction.
Momentum Pillar: Uses the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) with customizable fast (12), slow (26), and signal (9) lengths. It compares the MACD line to the signal line to determine momentum strength and direction.
Stochastic Pillar: Employs the Stochastic oscillator with a default period of 13. It identifies overbought conditions (above 80) and oversold conditions (below 20), with intermediate zones between 60-80 and 20-40.
Fractal Pillar: Uses Williams' Fractal indicator with a default period of 3. It identifies potential reversal points by looking for specific high and low patterns over the given period.
On-Balance Volume (OBV) Pillar: Incorporates On-Balance Volume with three EMAs - short (3), medium (13), and long (21) periods. It assesses volume trends by comparing these EMAs.
Each pillar outputs a state ranging from -2 (strongly bearish) to 2 (strongly bullish), with 0 indicating a neutral state. This standardized output allows for easy comparison and aggregation of signals across all pillars.
Users can customize various parameters for each pillar, allowing them to fine-tune the indicator to their specific trading style and market conditions. The multi-timeframe comparison feature also allows users to compare pillar states between the current timeframe and a user-defined comparison timeframe, providing additional context for decision-making.
Design
From a design standpoint, I've put considerable effort into making the Six Pillars indicator visually appealing and user-friendly. The clean and minimalistic design is a key feature that sets this indicator apart.
I've implemented a sleek table layout that displays all the essential information in a compact and organized manner. The use of a dark background (#030712) for the table creates a sleek look that's easy on the eyes, especially during extended trading sessions.
The overall design philosophy focuses on presenting complex information in a simple, intuitive format, allowing traders to make informed decisions quickly and efficiently.
The color scheme is carefully chosen to provide clear visual cues:
White text for headers ensures readability
Green (#22C55E) for bullish signals
Blue (#3B82F6) for neutral states
Red (#EF4444) for bearish signals
This color coding extends to the candle coloring, making it easy to spot when all pillars agree on a bullish or bearish outlook.
I've also incorporated intuitive symbols (↑↑, ↑, →, ↓, ↓↓) to represent the different states of each pillar, allowing for quick interpretation at a glance.
The table layout is thoughtfully organized, with clear sections for the current and comparison timeframes. The Confluence Strength meter is prominently displayed, providing traders with an immediate sense of signal strength.
To enhance usability, I've added tooltips to various elements, offering additional information and explanations when users hover over different parts of the indicator.
How to Use This Indicator
The Six Pillars indicator is a versatile tool that can be used for various trading strategies. Here are some general usage guidelines and specific scenarios:
General Usage Guidelines:
Pay attention to the Confluence Strength meter. Higher values indicate stronger agreement among the pillars and potentially more reliable signals.
Use the multi-timeframe comparison to confirm signals across different time horizons.
Look for alignment between the current timeframe and comparison timeframe pillars for stronger signals.
One of the strengths of this indicator is it can let you know when markets are sideways – so in general you can know to avoid entering when the Confluence Strength is low, indicating disagreement among the pillars.

📋 Ticker Selection
This script uses a different approach for selecting tickers. Instead of inputting them one by one via input.symbol(), you can now copy-paste or edit a list of tickers in the text area window. This approach allows users to easily exchange ticker lists between each other and, for example, create multiple lists of tickers by sector, market cap, etc., and easily input them into the script. Full credit to @allanster for his functions for extracting tickers from the text. Users can switch between 7 groups of 40 tickers each, totaling 280 tickers.
