VSA Better Volume

The VSA Better Volume indicator uses the current tick volume together with the candle range - the spread, comparing them with the previous values, in the default settings these are the last 20 days.

Description of signals:

● red. Large volume + bullish candle with a large spread. The signal appears when an uptrend starts and ends, as well as during correction (pullbacks) in a bear market.

● white. Large volume + bearish candlestick with a large spread. The signal appears at the origin and end of a downtrend, also during correction (pullbacks) in a bull market.

● green. Large volume + candlestick with a small spread. As a rule, it occurs at the end of a trend movement, when the market maker “dumps” his trades to ordinary traders, who will incur losses, since players open their positions at the end of the trend, just before the price reverses, and also at the time of fixing profits on corrections ( in the middle of a trend movement).

● magenta. A group of candles with high volume. Candlesticks have large and small spreads. This signal rarely appears, it usually occurs on a correction (rollback).

● yellow. Small tick volume candles. A common occurrence at the end of a trend and during a correction.
