Rolling Angled Volume Profile [Trendoscope®]🎲 Volume Profile Indicators
🎯Traditional Volume Profile
Volume profile indicators visually represent the distribution of volume across price levels. These indicators typically operate on horizontal price levels, making them effective in identifying supply and demand zones in ranging markets. However, they are less useful in trending markets where price movements follow a slope.
🎯The Need for Angled Volume Profiles
Just as support and resistance levels differ from trendlines, volume profile indicators require an equivalent method to account for volume distribution along a sloped trajectory. This would enable more accurate volume analysis in trending markets.
We identified the need of Angled Volume profile and have already published few indicators that implements the concept.
Angled Volume Profile calculates volume distribution along a slope. Users interact with the indicator by selecting the starting point, after which the volume profile is calculated for the selected trajectory.
Volume Forks is another tool that extends angled volume profile analysis, aligning volume profiles along the trajectory of pitchforks.
🎲 Rolling Volume Profile Indicator
The Rolling Volume Profile offers a new approach to angled volume profile calculations, addressing some limitations of earlier implementations:
🎯 Rolling Calculation
The volume profile is calculated for the last N bars of the instrument
The slope of the profile lines is determined by the closing prices of the starting and ending bars
Profiles are drawn in the direction of price movement between the start and end bars.
🎯 Dynamic Updates
As new bars are added, the calculations are updated, and the profile is redrawn based on the latest data.
This dynamic behavior earns it the name "Rolling Volume Profile."
🎯 Advantages Over Earlier Versions
Unlimited Profile Lines : Unlike previous implementations limited to 500 profile lines, this indicator uses polyline objects, overcoming the restriction.
Live Updates : Previous angled volume profile tools lacked real-time updates when new bars appeared. This limitation is resolved in the Rolling Volume Profile Indicator.
The Rolling Volume Profile provides an efficient and scalable solution for analyzing volume in trending markets.
🎯 Indicator Settings
Simple settings include few customisable options

Multi-Timeframe Volume indicator by @jpkxyz
This script is a Multi-Timeframe Volume Z-Score Indicator. It dynamically calculates /the Z-Score of volume over different timeframes to assess how significantly current
volume deviates from its historical average. The Z-Score is computed for each
timeframe independently and is based on a user-defined lookback period. The
script switches between timeframes automatically, adapting to the chart's current
timeframe using `timeframe.multiplier`.
The Z-Score formula used is: (current volume - mean) / standard deviation, where
mean and standard deviation are calculated over the lookback period.
The indicator highlights periods of "significant" and "massive" volume by comparing
the Z-Score to user-specified thresholds (`zScoreThreshold` for significant volume
and `massiveZScoreThreshold` for massive volume). The script flags buy or sell
conditions based on whether the current close is higher or lower than the open.
Visual cues:
- Dark Green for massive buy volume.
- Red for massive sell volume.
- Green for significant buy volume.
- Orange for significant sell volume.
- Gray for normal volume.
The script also provides customizable alert conditions for detecting significant or massive buy/sell volume events, allowing users to set real-time alerts.
Theoretical price by volumeThis code is used to calculate a theoretical price range based on volume and price change and display it on the chart. Specifically, it calculates the “theoretical price volatility” based on price changes and volume, from which the upper and lower price limits are derived.
The price volatility is calculated by dividing the price change by the volume as the change unit volume.
Based on this volatility, we calculate the theoretical variation relative to the current price (“Theoretical Variance Difference”).
Based on the results, **Theoretical High Price (p_price) and Theoretical Low Price (m_price)** are calculated.
The chart displays the upper and lower bounds of these theoretical prices in color, and also calculates their mean and standard deviation (in the form of a Bollinger band) and plots them.
The background color on the chart indicates whether the price is within the theoretical price range, and at the same time, the mean and standard deviation of the theoretical prices are used to visualize price movements in more detail.
This indicator helps traders understand the impact of volume on price movements and helps them determine if prices are staying within the theoretical range or if there are unusual movements.
Volume Adjusted CandlesTraditional candlestick charts are invaluable for visualizing price movements over time. However, they often lack an explicit representation of trading volume, a key factor that can significantly influence price action. Our Volume Adjusted Candles Indicator fills this gap by incorporating volume directly into the candlesticks, allowing for a more comprehensive analysis.
How Candles are Calculated
Each candlestick in this indicator is adjusted based on the volume of trades that occurred during its timeframe. The process involves segmenting the price range of the trading session into equal parts, known as 'bins'. Each bin represents a segment of the price range, and the volume of trades within each bin influences the final shape and position of the candlestick.
The Formula: The volume adjusted position of each part of the candle (high, low, and close) is calculated using a weighted average formula where each price point is weighted by the volume of trades at that price. This results in a volume-weighted price for each segment of the candle, making it easy to see where the most trading activity occurred and how it impacted price movements.
Cumulative Delta Volume WaveIntroducing an Enhanced Version of the CDV by LonesomeTheBlue
For the original version and description check this link:
What Makes This Version Different than the original?
This enhanced version of the CDV indicator incorporates advanced signal processing techniques to bring new depth to market analysis.
Standard Deviation Bands and EMAs: These additions to the CDV offer a visual representation of significant market movements—highlighting major pumps and dumps, as well as identifying potential support and resistance levels.
Color-Coded Insights: The standard deviation bands utilize color coding based on signal processing principles. This feature becomes increasingly useful the more you zoom out, making it easier to observe and interpret market waves.
Market Maker Activity: By examining fluctuations within the standard deviation bands, traders can gauge when Market Makers are actively maneuvering to establish their long and short positions, often at the expense of retail traders.
EMA Support and Resistance: The embedded Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. Analyzing these can help traders determine the continuing strength of a market move, whether bullish or bearish.

Z-Scored Volume [KFB Quant]The Z-Scored Volume (CSV) indicator is designed to make it easier to identity potential market extremes.
What is the Z-Score?
The Z-Score is a statistical measure that quantifies how far a particular data point is from the mean of a group of data. It's expressed in terms of standard deviations from the mean.
How to calculate the Z-Score?
Z-Score = (Value - Mean) / StDev
How the script works
In this script we calculate the Z-Score of the charts volume.
We get the Mean of the predefined period in the Length Configuration tab by using the ta.sma function.
We get the StDev of the predefined period in the Length Configuration tab by using the ta.stdev function.
The default period is 360.

Volume Forks [Trendoscope]🎲 Volume Forks - Advanced Price Analysis with Recursive Auto-Pitchfork and Angled Volume Profile
The Volume Forks Indicator is a comprehensive research tool that combines two innovative techniques, Recursive Auto-Pitchfork and Angled Volume Profile . This indicator provides traders with valuable insights into price dynamics by integrating accurate pitchfork drawing and volume analysis over angled levels. The indicator does following things
Detects Pitchfork formations automatically on the chart over Recursive Zigzag
Instead of drawing forks based on fib levels, volume distribution over ABC of pitchfork is calculated and drawn in the direction of the handle.
🎲 Brief about Pitchfork
Pitchfork is drawn when price forms ABC pattern. Pitchfork draws a series of parallel lines in the direction of trend which can be used for support and resistance.
There are many methods of drawing pitchfork. In all cases, a line joining BC will make the base of pitchfork and fork lines are drawn from different points of the base. All the fork lines will be parallel. But, the handle of the base defines the direction of fork lines. Classification of pitchfork is mainly based on the starting and ending points of the handle.
🎲 Regular Types
Here, end of the handle is always fixed and it will be the mid point of B and C.
🎯 Andrews Pitchfork
Handle starts from A and joins the base at mid of B and C.
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎯 Schiff Pitchfork
Handle starts from Bar of A and price of middle of AB and joins the base at mid of B and C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎯 Modified Schiff Pitchfork
Handle starts from mid of A and B and joins the base at mid of B and C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎲 Inside Types
Here, C will act as end of the handle which joins the Base BC .
🎯 Andrews Pitchfork (Inside)
Handle starts from A and joins the base at C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎯 Schiff Pitchfork (Inside)
Handle starts from Bar of A and price of (A+B)/2 and joins the base at C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎯 Modified Schiff Pitchfork (Inside)
Handle starts from mid of A and B and joins the base at C
Forks are drawn based on fib ratios from the handle
🎲 Brief about Pitchfork
The Angled Volume Profile technique expands on the concept of volume profile by measuring volume distribution levels over angled levels rather than just horizontal levels. By selecting a starting point and angle interactively, traders can assess volume distribution within specific price trends. This feature is particularly useful for analysing volume dynamics in trending markets.
🎲 Settings
Indicator settings include few things which determine the scanning of pitchforks and few which determines drawing of volume profile lines.
Please note that, due to pine limitations of 500 lines, if there are too many formations on the chart, volume profile may not appear correctly. If that happens, please reduce the number of volume forks per formation.
Volume Profile Bar-Magnified Order Blocks [MyTradingCoder]Introducing "Volume Profile Bar-Magnified Order Blocks", an innovative and unique trading indicator designed to provide traders with a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics. This tool takes the concept of identifying order blocks on your chart and elevates it by integrating a detailed volume profile within each order block zone.
Unlike standard order block indicators, Volume Profile Bar-Magnified Order Blocks pulls data from lower timeframe bars and assigns it to various segments of the order block. By providing this volume profile inside the order block, the indicator supplies a deeper, multi-dimensional view of market activity that can enhance your trading decisions.
Crucially, users have the ability to fine-tune the detection of order blocks. This is made possible through a single input setting called "Tuning". This integer value allows you to control the significance and frequency of the order blocks. Higher numbers will produce more significant order blocks, though they will appear less frequently. Lower numbers, on the other hand, will yield less significant order blocks, but they will occur more often. This enables you to adjust the sensitivity of the indicator according to your specific trading strategy and style.
Key Settings:
Number of Segments: Customize the level of detail in your volume profile by selecting the number of segments you want inside each order block.
Tuning: Adjust the sensitivity of order block detection to align with your trading strategy. Higher values produce more significant but less frequent order blocks, while lower values yield less significant but more frequent order blocks.
Color Inputs: Personalize the look of your chart by selecting the colors for various elements of the indicator. This ensures a seamless integration with your current chart aesthetics and improves visual clarity.
Here is a s creenshot that beautifully demonstrates the power of this indicator. You'll see how the price rejects perfectly off the highest volume segment in an order block, showcasing the indicator's potential for pinpointing high-impact price levels.
While Volume Profile Bar-Magnified Order Blocks offers many unique features, it should be used in conjunction with other indicators and forms of analysis for a complete trading strategy. As with all tools, it does not guarantee profitable trades but is intended to give traders more information to base their decisions on. Use it to complement your existing analysis and enhance your understanding of market behavior.
Experience a new level of clarity in your trading with Volume Profile Bar-Magnified Order Blocks - an indicator that goes beyond the surface to help you navigate the markets more effectively.
Cumulative Volume Delta [Aggregated]This Indicator is known as Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), and it represents the total difference between buying and selling pressure.
This indicator use intrabar analysis to strike a balance between the most straightforward and accurate approaches of computing volume delta.
Intrabar analysis is the most accurate method to determine volume delta on historical bars on our charts when TradingView does not currently have historical tick data available.
What is included in the indicator:
Candle Type CVD
Line Type CVD
Aggregated Data which is derived from different exchanges
● Binance
● Bybit
● OKX
● Delta
● WooNetwork
You can choose between Aggregated Data or Single Data by choice.
Aggregated Data - Gathered Data from multiple exchanges which is summarize and became one.
Single Data - Data on your current chart.
Aggregated Data for CVD is still limited to BTC pair as of the moment. The indicator automatically switches to Single Data Type if the opened chart is not a BTC pair.
Candle Colors are fully customizable just like the Tradingview candle settings.
This indicator is mostly compatible to all Crypto.
NOTE: Most code is derived from my library to keep everything neat and clean.
S2BU2 Volume Oscillator (Improved)Fair Use:
Please do not take my work and sell it under your own name. This was created to benefit everyone - not one person. Feel free however to use it as part of whatever work you wish to sell (of course i would applaud also giving ideas away for free - your choice though ;)
What it is:
The Basis for this Indicator was the original Volume Oscillator. I added Averages for Highs and Lows to make it easier to see relatively over- or undersupplied zones.
I also modified the oscillator to use a fast and a slow moving average à la MACD on itself to get a cleaner and earlier signal for when to expect a big move.
How it works:
A falling MA-line - especially if beneath the Signal-line indicates weakening Strength. Movements made during this time will barely move the needle.
A rising MA-line - especially if above the Signal-line, indicates increasing strength. Movements made during this time will be relatively considerable.
Crossovers above the average High/ below the average Low are especially relevant.
How to use:
Note this is only a recommendation and not advice. Feel free to experiment and adjust the indicator to fit your tradingstyle. This is only my personal setup. Feel free to share your findings.
Best used in combination with another Indicator that gives impulse direction, like for example my Stochastic Momentum Convergence Divergence (). You may also use any other indicator that works for you for this purpose - i am biased towards my own work though :D
What you want to see is a fresh direction-signal followed by a rising MA-line in the Volume Oscillator. For confirmation you can wait until the Volume Oscillator also has a crossover(up only, do not use the crossdown!) between MA- and Signal-line. Best results should be achieved if the MA-line was well below the averageLow-line. Trenddirection may change even while the Volume continuously goes up. Volume is direction agnostic. Always keep an eye on your direction indicator as changes can and will occur. These will be equally as violent and often longer lived than the previous direction you caught - you will lose a lot more than you gain if you do not keep track of that! This Indicator will help you to identify when not to waste your time on a trade, it will not be a magic pill that you can use to set and forget.
Volume Profile and Volume Indicator by DGTVolume Profile (also known as Price by Volume) is an charting study that displays trading activity over a specified time period at specific price levels. It is plotted as a horizontal histogram on the finacial isntrumnet's chart that highlights the trader's interest at specific price levels.
The histogram is used by traders to predict areas of support and resistance. Price levels where the traded volume is high could be assumed as support and resistance levels.
Price may experience difficulty moving above or below areas with large bars. Usually there is a great deal of activity on both the buy and sell side and the market stays at that price level for a great deal of time
It is advised to use volume profile in conjunction with other forms of technical analysis to maximize the odds of success
Light version of Volume Profile is added to Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGT
SonicR PVA VolumesI decided to practice and rewrite some interesting scripts from mt4 to pinescript for myself, all credits are in the source code.
An interesting indicator, I decided to post it like all other alternatives have closed source code, I hope it will be useful for someone!
With this indicator, you can filter small volumes, thereby making less noise so that you notice a possible trend reversal.
For example, rising/extreme factor set to - 1.263, some volume was filtered, now it's more easy to understand, isn't ?
Per Volume Price ImpactLiquidity, Information and Market Timing
* Market Liquidity
The term liquidity can refer to many things in finance. In this article, we will limit the scope of discussion to the market’s ability to transact without incurring a significant increase in volatility.
As we know, liquidity and volatility have an inversed relationship — the more ample the liquidity, the lower the volatility (attributed to transaction cost, price movement and, so on). With this understanding, we can say large movements in the market are driven by low liquidity. This does not seem to make sense because the markets are huge, how can it possibly be illiquid? Now, this has to do with how the market operates and how exchanges occur (This topic concerns the area of market microstructure).
* Order Book & the Trading Process
So how does a transaction actually occur in the market? Let’s assume we open a position with a market order. In this case, you will get the price on your quote board if there are enough units of assets people are willing to sell at that price. If there are not enough units, you will buy from the second-best price and so on until your order is filled. Now in the second case, as the order is being filled, the change in price is recorded. Therefore, if someone wishes to move the market, theoretically, they just need to buy up or sell up but it is problematic to do so.
Here is why:
while dry up the liquidity can make huge moves, it is inefficient to do so.
it takes a lot of money to do that
your position will be exposed, someone more resourceful than you may go against you and that is a huge risk
market manipulation charges
when you open a position, the entry price of the position is essentially a VWAP (volume-weighted average price). If you attempt to move the market and open a buy position at the same time, you will have a higher VWAP, eating into your own profit.
I think these reasons are sufficient in establishing why opening a position and drying up liquidity to profit is a dumb idea. But of course, the institutions are not stupid, the alternative is to enter your position first then move the market.
To measure liquidity one of the tools people use is the order book. It can offer an overview of the sentiment (by looking at the orders and changes in volume) and how people are positioned (if the broker offers such data). In my opinion, open interest is a much better tool than order as it records the transactions that have occurred, hence less prone to manipulations (google: “Navinder Singh Sarao”, the trader who used fake orders to manipulate algorithms to crash the market).
But to quantify the order book is so much work as well (there are ways, just difficult), what we can do is to make things simpler.
* Quantify Market Impact
We know price and volume reflect information, while the past technical information has no predictive power per semi-strong form of EMH, empirical studies have often tested this theory over a longer time horizon. In our case, precisely due to the mechanism of exchange and human behavior (The lack of incentive to move the market right away) we can, in the very short term (often intraday), foresee if the market is going to move or not. Back to the very definition of liquidity being the ability to transact without moving the market significantly, we can take this definition and quantify it with this formula:
Market Impact = (High — Low) / Volume
Why specifically “high — low”, because that’s the complete information in that moment and it is corresponding to the volume. A little crude but it is the simplest form.
A few things to take note of here:
We can only know the complete picture once the candle is complete. This is fine in most markets because it takes time to gather money and orders.
We often see high liquidity during certain time of the day, for example, when the market opens and so on. As a result, we need to take some scientific approaches to transform the data.
Now, this looks much better. To interpret this graph, the lower the value, the lower the market impact, the deeper the liquidity.
* Generate Tradable Insights
To generate trade ideas isn’t a difficult task, we all know the RSI, MOM, STOC, etc. all the indicators attempt to draw boundaries, and we can do the same but we need to be a little more advanced and critical.
step 1: we first need to normalize the data. To do that we will take the log of the values to make the skewed distribution normal. The result isn’t ideal if you zoom out but I think this is decent enough to work with. Here is
This is still not a stationary time series, but it looks stable enough and it mean-reverts. So we turn to our lovely standard deviation bands for help.
Step 2: Because this is not a stationary process (visually, you can test it statistically if you wish), we cannot just take sample mean and SD and also because we want to show off our data skills, so we turn to move averages and regressions. I’m going to use moving regression here because I think it is better (mean can be distorted by large values by a larger margin and it lags)
I’m using the moving regression band on TradingView and 1.5 SD here for convenience, you can try to optimize the parameters with codes or other regression models if you wish. But I think it is more important to understand the rationale here.
This step is essentially trying to figure out the anomalies in liquidity so that we can see when there is deep liquidity. This is also why choosing the parameter is crucial because you are essentially approximating how much informed trading is taking place (This is a concept in market microstructure for brokerages to set their spreads but it is not a good tool in a liquid market). By setting the level at 1.5 we are assuming about 86% of the time the market is in what we consider a normal liquid state. (again it is arbitrary, but based on the 68–95–99.7 rule of normal distribution). The rest of the time will be either low or high liquidity, When liquidity is deep, it perhaps, signals institutional money is pouring into the market and big moves may follow.
* Conclusion
There you have it, how to enter the market with the big bucks. But do take note there are plenty of assumptions and a lot to improve on here.
Advanced VolumeThis simple indicator improves upon the built in volume indicator by adding the following:
-Option to use an EMA instead of SMA
-Advanced Coloring: Lighter bars show growing volume, darker bars show falling volume. Gray bars show very low relative volume (less than or equal to 50% of the moving average), while bars which have a highlighted background have a high relative volume( you can choose the threshold level, default is 2 times the RVOL).
Enjoy!

Thank you Julio!
Vision VolumeAfter reading an article on how to trade volume I felt that I needed some kind of indicator using price action and volume together.
More precisely I tried to build two indicators. Bear in mind this indactor is very simple because it only evaluates each bar with its previous bar and an average.
Nr.1 Weak/fake push: Price suddenly goes up/down a lot more but without much volume being traded -> sign of a fake move or low interest
Nr 2 Price action resistance: After an up or down move price suddenly stops moving but high volumes are being traded. This means high resistance from sellers in a rally or buyers in a decline.
This is very simple and as you can see it is often not a clear signal. I will try to improve it further. If a fake move bar (purple) has a close near its new high we don't know if the fake push will continue. As you can see on the chart. some reversal signs come a little to early.
You can re-color labels and turn them off optionally.
This is built for educational purposes only. I hope you find it useful.
