[VC] Cumulative Delta Volume BarsLet's first learn what is Delta & How to Use Cumulative Delta Volume Bars?
Cumulative Delta Volume Bars is one of the leading indicators that you can use when trading order flow. It gives you an instant snapshot of the buying and selling pressure in a market.
After reading the detailed description of "Cumulative Delta Volume Bars," you will understand how volume delta provides a critical edge by allowing you to spot significant potential reversals in the market. You will also learn to use this Cumulative Delta indicator in depth. (including rest session usability features)
What is Delta Volume?
Delta Volume is the difference between Buying and Selling Power. Delta Volume is calculated by taking the difference between the volume traded at the offer price and the volume traded at the bid price. (in simple words, the difference between buying pressure & selling pressure)
If delta volume is more than zero, you have more buying pressure than selling & vice versa, and if delta volume is less than zero, you have more selling pressure than buying.
In Order-Flow Analysis , traders used Cumulative Delta to measure the relationship between the Buying & Selling pressure Vs Price.
Cumulative delta volume takes the delta values for every bar and successively adds them together to provide a graph, as seen below visually.
Let me demonstrate by giving examples of how cumulative Delta can help measure the buying or selling pressure relative to the price move.
★ Trading Absorption & Exhaustion concepts with Delta
See the chart below & try to analyze the next possible move on the basses on the analysis mentioned on the chart.
➽➽ If you said Short, you were correct. ✅
Till Point A , both price & cumulative were aligned. (means there were no imbalances between Delta & Price).
But on Point B , the Cumulative Delta broke the previous resistance clearly and moved even further away from the resistance level, but the Price couldn't break the last resistance. It interprets that buyers applied a lot of buying pressure but no result. (Aggressive buying pressure absorbed by Passive sellers)
Due to this vast effort or failed attempt, buyers were exhausted and had no more strength to pull the Price up. That's why the Price reversed from Point B . See below image
★ Cumulative Delta Volume Bars is helpful when determining buying or selling pressure at different key price levels, such as swing highs or lows.
Let's recap on swing highs and swing lows.
➽ A swing high (S.H) is formed when the high reaches higher than the price action around it. Once the Price moves above a prior swing high and begins to retrace, a new swing high is formed.
➽ A swing low (S.L) is formed when the low reaches lower than price action around it. Once the Price moves below a prior swing low and begins to retrace, a new swing low is formed.
➽ When the Price makes higher highs and higher lows, a market is considered an uptrend.
➽ When the Price is making lower lows followed by lower highs, a market is considered a downtrend.
When evaluating Delta, it's beneficial to compare delta values at swing lows or swing highs to determine the amount of selling or buying pressure and how the market reacts.
The actual Power of Delta is revealed when we use it to determine the market's reaction to powerful buying or selling. We want to see if the market has reacted as we would expect or not.
In the above Example, you will notice that every time price breaks a swing, Delta does as well.
It makes sense as it takes selling pressure to break a swing low or buying pressure to break a swing high. In simple words, we can say that there is no anomaly between delta direction & price direction.
In simple words (No Absorption or Exhaustion)
But what's occurring when this isn't the case, and we have divergence between Price and Delta? Let's analyze it with real examples.
★ Understanding Delta Divergence.
(Lack of Harmony in Buying/Selling Pressure & Price Move)
Notice how the Price breaks out of the previous resistance level on the above chart, but the Delta didn't yet reach even close to its last resistance level. It's a clear divergence between Price and Delta. Buyers may be slightly exhausted at the previous resistance level, and Price & Delta may retrace slightly. But in a broader view, it reflects a strong bullish signal.
See the above chart & see when and why the Price moved. I hope it will help you understand the underlying relation & story between Price & Delta.
Cumulative Delta & Trade Management
Delta will help you spot significant reversals, but it can also be used to help manage your open trade. You want to see a high correlation between Delta and Price when in a long or short position.
Suppose you're short while the Price is breaking a new low. You want to see Delta breaking low if sellers aren't interested in selling at the recent lows, represented by Delta not breaking lows. The probability of a short term reversal or a significant retrace increases.
When in a position, always be on the lookout for exhaustion and absorption, signalling a reversal potential.

Baekdoo golden diamond signalHi forks,
I'm trader Baekdoosan who trading Equity from South Korea. This Baekdoo golden Diamond signal indicate good buying position to trade.
Here's the ideas
1. Soaring volume happen with big white candle.
a. Soaring volume can be measured for highest volume in certain period of time (default value is for 1 year). (blue area)
b. Soaring volume can also be measured by 10% of certain period of time(default value is for 1 year)'s cumulative volume . (green area) => you can adjust this ratio input. the higher value is the more likely to trail of whale
2. Drops under 5 days lowest price without volume . (red area) => I put half of average volume as default but you may can adjust it (the lower value is the more likely to soar again)
3. cross over 5 days highest price after 1, 2 conditions => Golden Diamond
underneath of this idea is, big chunk of the money comes and correction is on going but major whale's amount hold tight.
you can modify input values based on your investigation. It works well on day chart as well as minute chart. for the area with breaks plots are to checking the 1,2 conditions. so for final indicator will only be shown from this indicator but you can select plots if you think that is useful.
hope this will help your trading on equity as well as crypto. I didn't try it on futures . Best of luck all of you. Gazua~!

Market Breadth Indicator (percentage of US stocks above * SMA)This script is a revised version of jchang274's Multi-Sub script.
Add more feature from the original jchang274 script.
1.Compare 4 US STOCK INDEX ( Dowjones 30/NASDAQ100/RUSSELL2000/S&P500 ) in the same index of percentage of stocks above 20 /50/100/200 days simple moving average.
2. Use 4 index of percentage of stocks above 20 /50/100/200 days simple moving average,compare the same stock index ( Dowjones 30/NASDAQ100/RUSSELL2000/S&P500 )
How it begin?
Traders and investors use market breadth in order to assess the index’s overall health. Market breadth can be a reliable, if not an accurate, indicator of an upcoming price rise in the index. Similarly, it can also provide early warning signs for a future price decline.
What is it?
Market breadth indicators analyze the number of stocks advancing relative to those that are declining in a given index or on a stock exchange.
Market breadth refers to how many stocks are participating in a given move in an index or on a stock exchange. An index may be rising yet more than half the stocks in the index are falling because a small number of stocks have such large gains that they drag the whole index higher.
How it works?
Market breadth studies attempt to uncover strength or weakness in the movements of an index that are not visible simply by looking at a chart of the index.
NSE (CNX) FUTURES Cumulative Open Interest VolumeThis indicator combines Volumes of all the open contracts of
NSE FUTURES (e.g. NIFTY FUTURES) and Combines them together.
For e.g. Default Ticker is set to NIFTY1!
NIFTY1! + NIFTY2! + NIFTY3!
Since NIFTY3! is not available on Trading View one has to manually add (via indicator settings) the last (third) running month's Futures contract symbol (NSE stock future symbol) in this.
Buy/sell pressure (volume)Still early phase.
