Volume Effectiveness [BigBitsIO] 

Bitcoin / US Dollar Perpetual Inverse Swap ContractBitMEX

Description

This Volume Effectiveness indicator is designed to allow users to try and identify how effective volume is on each candle, and smoothing those values over time to try to find trends.

Volume Effectiveness is the % change in price for each single unit of volume on the associated candle. The value can be positive or negative, but there is an option to just monitor an absolute value.

Features:
- Volume Effectiveness
- Toggle if Volume Effectiveness should be an absolute value
- Toggle visibility of bars

- Smoothed moving average of Volume Effectiveness
- Adjustable period on the smoothed moving average
- Several moving average types available to use for the smoothed moving average
- Toggle visibility of smoothed moving average

Release Notes

Changed default smoothing period to 30. Noticed it was able to pick up some hidden divergences better than at 14. Still think I like HMA as the smoothing MA type as it gives the most round curves. Other MAs are much more jagged, and/or relatively flat.

Is it possible to get the final effectiveness value in % terms.
Because that would give a better picture compared to the current scale appearing.
Right now the divide by volume is painting a far smaller value and scaling it as per that value in the plotted chart

Hey David, Thanks for the videos and scripts. You videos are very helpful.
Quick question: In a Volume indicator with Simple Moving Average of 9 (any value). Is there a way to identify a crossover between the Volume bar and the volume moving average.
I am trying to work a strategy with Volume and its moving average. The idea is to buy on green candle crossover and sell on red crossover. Thanks

@im_imran, Yes. You can do the volume crossover volume ma with the built-in alert conditions in TradingView. However, if you want to detect the crossover with the color of the candle I believe you will need to code in an alert condition to detect that and the volume crossover at once.
