Buy to Sell Convergence / Divergence and Volume Pressure Counterforce Histogram Ideas by: @XeL_Arjona
WHAT IS THIS?
The following indicators try to acknowledge in a K-I-S-S approach to the eye (Keep-It-Simple-Stupid), the two most important aspects of nearly every trading vehicle: -- PRICE ACTION IN RELATION BY IT'S VOLUME --
Volume Pressure Histogram: Columns plotted in positive are considered the dominant Volume Force for the given period. All "negative" columns represents the counterforce Vol.Press against the dominant.
Buy to Sell Convergence / Divergence: It's a simple adaptation of the popular "Price Percentage Oscillator" or MACD but taking Buying Pressure against Selling Pressure Averages, so given a Positive oscillator reading (>0) represents Bullish dominant Trend and a Negative reading (<0) a Bearish dominant Trend. Histogram is the diff between RAW Volume Pressures Convergence/Divergence minus Normalised ones (Signal) which helps as a confirmation.
Volume bars are by default plotted from RAW Volume Pressure algorithms, but they can be as well filtered with Karthik Marar's approach against a "Total Volume Average" in favor to clean day to day noise like HFT.

Custom Volume + Buyer & Price %Title: Custom Volume + Buyer & Price %
Description:
This indicator helps you see who is controlling the market — buyers or sellers — using volume and price action. It works even if your chart is on a small timeframe (like 5-min or 15-min), by showing Daily, Weekly, and Monthly information from the higher timeframe volume charts.
Key Features & How It Works:
Buyer % (B%):
Measures where the closing price is within the high-low range of a candle.
Calculation:
\text{Buyer %} = \frac{\text{Close} - \text{Low}}{\text{High} - \text{Low}} \times 100
Interpretation:
> 50% → Buyers are stronger
< 50% → Sellers are stronger
50% → Balanced
Volume Coloring:
Volume bars are colored based on Buyer %, not price movement:
Green → Buyers dominate
Red → Sellers dominate
Yellow → Balanced day
Higher Timeframe Insight:
Displays Daily, Weekly, and Monthly volume & Buyer % even if your chart is on a smaller timeframe.
Lets you understand long-term buying or selling pressure while trading intraday.
21-Day Average:
Shows average Buyer % and average volume over the past 21 days for trend context.
Why It’s Useful:
Quickly visualize whether the market is buyer-driven or seller-driven.
Identify strong accumulation or distribution days.
Works on any chart timeframe while giving higher timeframe perspective.
Ideal for traders who want easy, visual insight into market sentiment.
Volume ChartThis Pine Script indicator, written in TradingView’s version 6, visualizes trading volume as a custom candlestick chart instead of a standard histogram. Rather than plotting volume bars, it constructs synthetic candles where each candle’s "open" is set to the previous candle’s "close" (stored in prevClose). The "close" of the synthetic candle moves upward by the volume value if the actual price candle was bullish (close > open) and downward by the volume value if it was bearish, with the "high" and "low" both fixed to the open to create a flat candle body line. This transforms volume into a price-like cumulative visual flow, color-coded green for bullish and red for bearish periods, allowing traders to intuitively track whether volume pressure is accumulating upward or downward over time, as though volume itself were moving like a market price series.
TrueDelta Candles📖 Description:
TrueDelta Candles is a precision tool for traders who want deeper insight into market sentiment through real-time volume delta analysis. Rather than using traditional volume bars, this indicator colors each chart candle based on the net volume delta—the difference between buying and selling volume—fetched from a lower timeframe.
🚀 Key Features:
🎯 Real Candle Coloring: Colors actual price candles based on delta volume—green (buying pressure), red (selling pressure).
⏱️ Multi-Timeframe Volume Analysis: Automatically selects the appropriate lower timeframe for better delta approximation, or lets you set a custom one.
🔬 Order Flow Insight: Visualizes the tug-of-war between buyers and sellers within each candle.
⚡ Lightweight & Non-Intrusive: No clutter—just clean color overlays on your chart candles.
🔄 Live Updating: Responds instantly as new data arrives.
🧠 Ideal For:
Intraday and scalping strategies.
Momentum and breakout traders.
Order flow enthusiasts looking for a visual edge.
🛠️ How It Works:
Behind the scenes, the script uses ta.requestVolumeDelta() to retrieve granular buy/sell volume data from a lower timeframe. The net delta volume then determines whether the candle is colored green (positive delta) or red (negative delta). This makes it easy to spot when market pressure aligns or diverges from price action.
⚙️ Settings:
Use Custom Timeframe: Manually select the lower timeframe used for delta calculation (e.g., "1", "5").
Default Auto Mode: Automatically adapts to your current chart resolution for optimal data balance.
If you're serious about understanding the real dynamics behind every candle, TrueDelta Candles adds an essential layer of volume-based context that price alone can't offer.

Iron Cortex: Volume AnalysisDescription:
This Volume Analysis indicator is designed to identify potential buying and selling pressures in the market by analysing volume and price changes in conjunction with dual Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).
Signal Identification:
Buying Pressure: This signal is identified when:
i) Volume is rising and the price is increasing.
ii) The current volume is above both the fast and slow EMAs of the volume.
iii) The fast EMA is above the slow EMA.
Selling Pressure: This signal is identified when:
i) Volume is rising and the price is decreasing.
ii) The current volume is above both the fast and slow EMAs of the volume.
iii) The fast EMA is above the slow EMA.
Interpretation:
When the volume bars change to the specified colours, it indicates potential buying or selling pressure based on the underlying conditions. Teal is buying pressure, red is selling pressure.
Use this information in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to make informed trading decisions. As with all indicators, expect some false signals in choppy markets.
This indicator is useful for traders who want to incorporate volume analysis with price trends and EMA crossovers to identify strong market movements. Adjust the settings to fit your trading strategy and enhance your market analysis.
[Mad] Volume DeltaThis is a volume indicator that splits purchases and sales into 2 separate columns.
In addition, I added some POW factors to scale the volume to a more compact or expanded picture.
The SMA draws the red line indicating the volume of purchases and sales, also with POW factor customizable, so it is possible to scale it within the volume bars
what to do with this information: it is very easy to find rotation points when the selling volume and the buying volume are equal, this is where possible rotation phases occur

Extreme VolumesThe aim of this volume indicator is quite simple: to pinpoint extreme volume spikes and how unusual these extremes are in comparison to all the chart's volumes.
The label displayed at the end of the indicator updates according to the settings you choose;
It shows the volume EMA length and how many times (the EMA) the current volume bar as to be above to be considered extreme.
Finally, the percentage at the end of the label tells how unusual the defined extreme volumes are compared to the whole chart's volumes (the smaller the percentage, the more unusual these "extreme" volumes are).
Volume PlusVolume plus provides volume insights to identify increase or decrease in relative volume or sudden volume expansion that exceeds the average. Based on the period selected the script displays the color code.
Features
1. Two different sensitivity levels can be selected for volumes and coloring.
2. Whenever the volume is higher than the selected SMA, volume bars will change color.
3. Can Plot 20 SMA (can be changed)
Simple Volume Oscillator (SVO), by @BlueJayBirdSimple Volume Oscillator, or SVO. I came up with this idea while studying Spread Volume Analysis (SVA). It uses the Trading View's built-in RSI function to simplify volume values for further interpretation.
// -------------------- ENGLISH, Inglés
How to Use:
- When there's little volume activity, expect the oscillator to be closer to the zero line.
- Wait for a probable sudden increment up to close 100 when volume enters into the market.
- It works pretty much as a volatility oscillator, but it eliminates the noise of the price, and the noise of the volume bars, always so vertical and linear, which sometimes are hard to understand at first glance.
- As any oscillator, it suffers from some lagging when compared to the price action, but for the most part is pretty accurate.
- Remember the cyclical nature of markets: If things are quite, something is coming.
- NOTE: The oscillator WILL NOT indicate market direction, that bias is up to the analyst to find out.
- Like. Follow. Comment.
// -------------------- SPANISH, Español
Cómo usar:
- Cuando hay poca actividad de volumen, el oscilador debería estar cercano a cero.
- Esperá por un posible incremento repentino hasta 100 cuando entre volumen en el mercado.
- Funciona de manera similar a un oscilador de volatilidad, pero elimina cualquier ruido del precio, y el ruido de las barras de volumen, siempre tan verticales y lineales, lo que las hace difícil de descifrar a simple vista.
- Como cualquier oscilador, sufre de un ligero retraso respecto de la acción del precio, pero por lo demás, es bastante preciso.
- Recordá la naturaleza cíclica de los mercados: Si las cosas están quietas, es porque algo está por suceder.
- NOTA: Este oscilador NO VA A decirte qué dirección va a seguir el precio; eso es algo que vas a tener que descubrir por tu cuenta.
- Like, seguí, comentá.

Volatility Finite Volume Elements Strategy The FVE is a pure volume indicator. Unlike most of the other indicators
(except OBV), price change doesn?t come into the equation for the FVE
(price is not multiplied by volume), but is only used to determine whether
money is flowing in or out of the stock. This is contrary to the current trend
in the design of modern money flow indicators. The author decided against a
price-volume indicator for the following reasons:
- A pure volume indicator has more power to contradict.
- The number of buyers or sellers (which is assessed by volume) will be the same,
regardless of the price fluctuation.
- Price-volume indicators tend to spike excessively at breakouts or breakdowns.
This study is an addition to FVE indicator. Indicator plots different-coloured volume
bars depending on volatility.

Uniform Volume ProfileUniform Volume Profile
The volume of a single candlestick is uniformly distributed by its range (high - low) along all the colliding volume profile bars.
For example, if a 10% of a candlestick intersects some volume bar (horizontal line) only the 10% of that candlestick volume will contribute to that profile.
Volume spikesSimple indicator which shows volume spikes.
By default spike is defined as such when volume is 2 times higher than average volume for last 10 volume bars (this can be changed in settings)
Also instead of using average volume (SMA is used in this case) you can use WMA or EMA by changing settings
Hullfib-trailingso I add a trialing function based on volume pf the bars
