Volume EffectivenessI have been trying to work with volume as an indicator for quite some time, as it holds qualities as a 'leading indicator'.
However, please note that any indicator which to some extent predict a future trend has its issues as it can be misleading.
But, in some datasets in a selected timeframe the leading properties of volume as an indicator are useful.
So this script is not too complicated. It shows a numeric which resembles the 'effectiveness of volume' in moving price.
For example, if a small volume creates a large price change - the Volume Effectiveness indicator will be high and show a spike
Whereas, if a large volume creates a small price change - the Volume Effectiveness indicator will be low
I used 3 metrics to represent Volume Effectiveness (these are different colors on the bar chart)
One price difference is the absolute(high - low) for each bar
Another is the absolute(open - close)
The 'open-close' is smaller than the 'high-low', so note this when viewing the bar charts
The final metric depends on if the open is greater than the close or vice-versa
But it considers the 'absolute(high-low)' and the difference between the open and the high (or low) and the close and the low (or high)
So the final metric is the largest of the 3 metrics and is generally the most useful of the 3 however, the other 2 are displayed to provide a better understanding of what 'Volume Effectiveness' displays
Note, I use absolute values so they are only positive, i.e. there are no negative values to represent a price drop within a bar
So, why is this indicator useful - its because volume is a leading indicator
A decreasing volume tends to suggest a price change is coming
Also, when the volume within a bar is very small, its Volume Effectiveness tends to go very high
That means a small trade volume creates a relatively large change in price
This is ideal conditions for a big pump (or big dump - although this indicator seems to work better before pumps)
A large spike in the Volume Effectiveness is commonly/sometimes preceding a big pump
So watch this indicator - and if there is a big spike - evaluate other market conditions to consider getting into position
Large spikes in the Volume Effectiveness can precede big price changes and therefore can provide a leading indication before a pump or dump
Timeframe is important - I found on the daily timeframe this indicator did not provide sufficient lead to be useful. Similarly on the <15min timeframe the spikes were not highly correlated with pumps/dumps
However, in medium timeframes (15mins, 1hour, 4hours) this indicator can be useful for predicting sizeable price changes.

Volume-Supported Linear Regression TrendHello Traders,
Linear Regression gives us some abilities to calculate the trend and if we combine it with volume then we may get very good results. Because if there is no volume support at up/downtrends then the trend may have a reversal soon. we also need to check the trend in different periods. With all this info, I developed Volume-Supported Linear Regression Trend script. The script checks linear regression of price and volume and then calculates trend direction and strength.
You have option to set Source, Short-Term Period and Long-Term Period. you can set them as you wish.
By default:
Close is used as "Source"
Short-Term Period is 20
Long-Term Period is 50
in following screenshot I tried to explain short term trend (for uptrend). Volume supports the trend? any volume pressure on trend? possible reversal? same idea while there is downtrend.
in following screenshot I tried to explain long term trend:
You can also check Positive/Negative Divergences to figure out possible reversals (to automate it, you can use Divergence for Many Indicators v4 , it has ability to check divergences on external indicators)
Enjoy!
Volume Bars and Regions of InterestThe bars are colored according to the volume traded. The volume weights were distributed logically for a better analysis.
<0.666 low volume
0.666 to 1.333 median volume
1,333 to 2,666 high volume
> 2,666 'institutional' volume
The moving average bands are the average of the highs and lows. They show a region of interest and not just a 'line'.
Volume Brakeout v1Volume Brakout indicator is used to help determine trend direction strictly based on Negative and Positive volume data.
How to Read:
- Moving Average crossovers are used to help determine a possible trend change or retracement.
- The area cloud on the bottom is calculated by the difference of the moving averages. This could be used to help determine the trending volume strength.
- Bright colored volume bars are large volume spikes calculated by the x factor in the options.
Other changes:
- Volume Depth is going open source with numerous of its indicators. This is only one of many!
- Volume is now displayed without being altered for calculations.
Volume-Weighted Indicators VWMA/VWAP/EMA_by WWAs traders and investors now urge to console volume factors into their price action analysis. This script is an attempt to combine volume-weighted moving average (VWMA), volume-weighted average price (VWAP), along with the exponential moving average (EMA). I have found that this indicator works quite well with the stock market.
How to use the indicator:
Buy when the VWAP and EMA lines crossing up VWMA.
Sell when the VWAP and EMA crossing down each other OR both VWAP and EMA crossing down VWAP
Any modificatio is welcomed, but please let me know.
Volume, Simple Relative Volume HighlightThis script plots volume bars and highlight bars that have an unusual activity, compare to the average (Standard: Simple Moving Average, 50 periods).
The script is useful for checking daily volume levels on equities. Where there is high volume, there is likely volatility, wich is good for day trading and swing trading entries.
Volume Price ROC Tracker and Shadow CandlesWhen price goes up on negative volume, then market is telling there is doubts in investors mind.
The SPX upside recent month was a on. Lower volume so, the rally in my view will not last. Read my articles on current market.
This very simple scripts shows if price drop or gain was on a upside volume or down side. It is a visual track on the candle reflecting the volume ROC overlapped as a price movement on the actual candle. So don't mistake it with a moving average. Red means volume was down even if price has gone up. Basically if a price goes up on a increase ROC volume then you can trust it. Otherwise it is likely that it won't last.
If you can improve on this idea, it would be great. I think there is not enough volume related scripts that diggs a bit deeper to describe the market behaviour in the future. After all all technical analysis are supposed to tell us about future price not just how it was in the past.
Volume ComparisonThis script shows the volume of the current chart relative to the volume of another selected ticker.
For meaningful information you should compare coins with the same base pair (for example BTCUSD against LTCUSD).
Volume bars will be plotted green if the other security's volume is higher, red otherwise.
You may use this script go generate alerts and automate your trading with a bot such as WolfBot.org

Volume Momentum [LucF]Volume momentum gives much more information than a simple volume MA. It does require interpretation however, since increasing volume momentum can indicate strengthening of both an up or down movement. Volume momentum peaks and bottoms are also interesting as they often lead to shifts in price movement.
In order to help interpretation, I color rising volume momentum using price momentum. Green indicates volume-supported upward price movement and red indicates volume-supported downward price movement.
As to falling volume momentum, in my world view it indicates exhaustion or disinterest which requires prior price activity to be interpreted. In strong and steady price movements it can indicate a mere pause. After high price volatility often signalling a top or bottom, falling volume momentum often leads reversals.
Features
Two optional MAs on the main volume momentum line, with crosses on the short MA.
A higher time frame line (shown by default), with the higher time frame being a user-defined multiple of the current chart’s interval. The default is 8, so that a 15m chart will also show a 2h volume momentum.
Two Markers
Tops/Bottoms (marker 1): these occur on high/low price momentum pivots situated in favorable regions, combined with volume momentum peaks.
Pauses/Reversals (marker 2): these simply identify volume momentum high pivots that often lead to shifts in price movement. They are not directional. You can choose to color bars where these markers occur (shown on chart).
You can show only long or short markers.
Alerts
You can define alerts on any combination of markers you configure. After defining the markers you want the alert to trigger on, make sure you are on the interval you want the alert to be monitoring at, then create the alert, select Volume Momentum, use the default “Configured Markers” alert condition and choose your triggering window (usually “Once Per Bar Close”). Once the alert is created, you can change the indicator's inputs with no effect on the alert.
Use Cases
The higher time frame line is very useful in situating current volume activity in a larger context.
I consider all peaks in volume momentum as potentially significant events.
When looking for an entry, I will often wait for the descending volume momentum to change direction at a shorter interval, using price momentum to confirm that increasing volume is working in my favor.
Volume momentum variations can often inform otherwise insignificant price momentum activity.
Here I use price momentum to color volume momentum; inversely, I also use volume momentum to color my momentum indicator.
Notes
Where the markers on my Volume Columns indicator focus on confirming strength of price movements, this indicators’ markers try to focus on shifts in price movement.
My volume momentum is calculated using a smoother variant of CCI which came to be known as WaveTrend.
Volume Based S/RI got a question if it would be possible to Automatically draw S/R levels based on Volume rather than RSI as I had earlier done in this script;
Well it certainly is and it looks as though it might even be tradeable.
The indicator compares the size of volume bars so that if there is a noticeable increase in volume (noticeable here meaning above the indicator threshold) it marks the bar high and low prior to the bigger volume candle.
Volume ImpactVolume Impact (The area)
Average Volume (The thick line, xTrigger)
Volume Impact = Volume Chance - Average Volume
It provides very reliable buy sell signals. Buy(green) when increasing, sell(red) when decreasing. Volume Impact might drop before the actual price so it has an early warning potential.
Before trend changes volume average diverges from the prices. It moves reverse to the prices.
Also before trend changes, volume impact peaks diverges from price peaks. So you know a big drop is coming.
Klinger Volume Oscillator inspired this indicator... This data is there but it is more difficult to interpret.
In summary, you can foresee trend changes.

Volume Share - Bitcoin Retail % [cryptorae]I've been keeping my eyes on retail BTC trading volume as a % of total BTC trading volume (charted).
It's the single best chart showing the death of sentiment in this bear market. Retail fell to as low as 5.6% on 6/8. The good news is that the % has stabilized at these levels.
I think retail interest will need to trend higher in tandem with higher price moves for us to break through key resistance levels.
To know why, let's look closer at the anatomy of the recent bull and bear market.
In the 2017 bull market:
- Retail interest trended higher or sideways with each drive up
- Average retail volume share was ~46%
In other words, price movements were dominated by infusions of new money.
In the 2018 bear market:
- Retail interest trended LOWER with each recovery in price
- Average retail volume share was ~15%
In other words, price movements were dominated by money exchanging through the hands of traders.
Open thoughts:
- If the bear market persists and prices reach critical levels, I think that retail % would spike as some finally rush for the exit and new investors happily jump in
- If prices recover w/o a sustained increase in retail %, I'd not be so quick to call a bull market
Things I classify as "retail":
- Bitflyer
- Bithumb
- Coinbase
- Bistamp
- Kraken
Things classified as "non-retail"
- Bitmex
- Bitfinex
The formula is retail / (retail + non-retail)
The script is open for you to modify if you disagree. Let me know your thoughts/tweaks.
Volume Strength Candles / Colored BarsIs Price Action Higher or Lower on STRONG or WEAK VOLUME from lookback
(Strong or Weak Bulls // Strong or Weak Bears)
Candles / Bars Indicate the Following (default 13 period lookback / Length)
MAROON Bear Candle with STRONG VOLUME more than 150% of the lookback / length (13 default), STRONG Bear Candle Confirmed With Volume
RED Bear Candle while VOLUME is BETWEEN 50% & 150% of the Lookback / Length (13 default), Neutral Bear Volume Neither strong or weak
ORANGE Bear Candle with WEAK VOLUME (Less than 50% of the Length / Lookback)
DARK GREEN Bull Candle with STRONG VOLUME MORE than 150% of lookback
GREEN Bull Candle with Neutral VOLUME BETWEEN 50% & 150% of the lookback / Length
AQUA Bull Candle with WEAK VOLUME less than 50% of the Lookback
Is price confirmed by volume?
Can Change the Lookback / Length from 13
Can Change the Colors and Transparency to easily see based off your chart background colors I recommend ZERO Transparency to easily identify volume strength (i use white background but many use black or other)
VOLUME WEIGHTED MACD V2 VWMACDV2 BY KIVANÇ fr3762Second version of Buff Dormeier's Volume Weighted MACD indicator....
Here in this version; Exponential Moving Averages used and Weighted by Volume instead of using only vwma ( Volume Weighted Moving Averages).
I personally asked Mr Dormeier, the developer of this indicator, and he confirmed this second version could be used.
I personally think that this one is more effective when comparing with the vwma version...
Volume Weighted MACD
Volume Weighted MACD (VW-MACD) was created by Buff Dormeier and described in his book Investing With Volume Analysis. It represents the convergence and divergence of volume-weighted price trends.
The inclusion of volume allows the VW-MACD to be generally more responsive and reliable than the traditional MACD .
What is MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)?
Moving Average Convergence Divergence was created by Gerald Appel in 1979. Standard MACD plots the difference between a short term exponential average and a long term exponential average. When the difference (the MACD line) is positive and rising, it suggests prices trend is up. When the MACD line is negative, it suggests prices trend is down.
A smooth exponential average of this difference is calculated to form the MACD signal line. When the MACD line is above the MACD signal line, it illustrates that the momentum of MACD is rising. Likewise, when the MACD is below the MACD signal line, the momentum of the MACD falls. This difference between the MACD line and the MACD signal line is frequently plotted as a histogram to highlight the spread between the two lines.
What is the difference between MACD and VW-MACD?
Volume Weighted MACD is substituting the two exponential moving averages to compute the MACD difference with the two corresponding Volume-Weighted Moving Average . Thus, VW-MACD contrasts a volume-weighted short term trend from the volume-weighted longer term trend.
The signal line is left as an exponential moving average because VW-MACD line is already volume weighted.

Volume Based Coloured BarsVolume Based Coloured Bars:
Most of the time traders are confused about if the price movements were supported by VOLUME .
This indicator colors the bars into volume weighted signals...
When prices go down bars are red and contraversely when up, bars are green. Additionally we have two more colors for each
situation:
PRICE BARS ARE:
DARK RED when prices go down and VOLUME is bigger than 150% of its (default 21 day) average, that indicates us price action is supported by a strong BEARISH VOLUME
RED when prices go down and VOLUME is BETWEEN 50% AND 150% of its (default 21 day) average, at this situation we can think that volume is neither strong nor weak
ORANGE when prices go down and VOLUME is just less than 50% of its (default 21 day) average, so the volume is weak and doesn't support the price action much
DARK GREEN when prices go UP and VOLUME bigger than 150% of its (default 21 day) average, that indicates us price action is supported by a strong BULLISH VOLUME
GREEN when prices go UP and VOLUME is BETWEEN 50% AND 150% of its (default 21 day) average, at this situation we can think that volume is neither strong nor weak
LIGHT GREEN when prices go UP and VOLUME is just less than 50% of its (default 21 day) average, so the volume is weak and doesn't support the price action much
21 day Simple Moving Average used as default value which can be changed in the settings menu,
21 day is considered as a month for STOCK Markets, it would be more accurate to set the value to 30 for CRYPTO CURRENCIES
Volume SpikesPlots volume the same as the built-in indicator. However, this indicator colors the column according to its change relative to the previous column. In other words, this indicator displays a green column on increased volume and a red bar on decreased volume.
Volume Change % Display1- Current bar's volume change %
2- Previous bar's volume change %
* Each line uses its own color based on volume rising or falling.
* Keeps the layout compact and readable.
Volume Disharmony IndicatorThis indicator is designed to detect imbalanced volume compared to the open/close of the corresponding candle body. The idea is that institutions often trade in higher volume within a smaller price range. Identifying these can give an indication if there is a rally or selloff happening. The code looks at the median of all the prior candles from the point of the last trigger and compares them to the range in body of the candles in order to dynamically find a baseline, by which imbalances can be more accurately detected throughout changing market conditions.
Volume Traded in Total Outstanding Shares with basic fundamentalThis indicator helps to find Volume Traded in Total Outstanding Shares with basic fundamental parameters like MCAP, EPS, PE, D2E and No. Equity shares.
