+ Breadth & Volumenote* If you've used my "+ Rate of Change Indicator", I am updating that without the OBV, which has been moved here. Just an FYI.
This "indicator" is basically a variety of indicators that measure volume, or accumulation/distribution. There's a bit of a story about how this came about but
it's not that interesting, so I'll spare you.
Indicators from which you may choose here are On Balance Volume (OBV), Money Flow Index (MFI), Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), Chaikin Oscillator, and Positive & Negative Net Volume.
I'll give a brief overview of these below, and if you want to educate yourself further on them you may. There are many web resources for that.
Most people are probably familiar with OBV. It's one of the more commonly used volume indicators, especially in the crypto crowd (at least amongst those traders I follow). It's basically a cumulative (doesn't oscillate around a midpoint) momentum indicator that measures volume of the current period versus volume of the previous period and adds it if price closed higher, but subtracts it if price closes lower. It's another way of using volume to confirm trend.
The MFI is a momentum indicator that measures the flow of money into and out of an asset over some period of time (user input). It's calculated using the RSI, so it can be used similarly to RSI (divergences, overbought, oversold, etc.), but of course unlike the RSI it's calculated primarily using volume and comparing the most recent candle close to the previous one (similar to OBV).
CMF is a volume-weighted average of accumulation and distribution over a some period of time (typically 21). It's a way of measuring accumulation versus
distribution in an asset, and oscillates around a zero line. You would use it similarly to any other oscillator, in that you can look for divergences, and general positive or negative momentum.
Chaikin Oscillator is basically a MACD (without signal line) of the accumulation and distribution index (or line--which is somehow different than simply accumulation and distribution). I haven't looked into these differences deeply, but if you look below at the calculations, and substituted 'ad' for 'accdist' you get very different readings. I actually did that, and what it looks like it would do is turn the actual Oscillator into a MACD signal line. So, by substituting 'ad' for 'accdist' (or the accumulation/distribution index) you produce a signal line of the Chaikin Oscillator.
Anyway, all that confusion out of the way, as I said, it's a MACD on the accumulation and distribution index, therefore it is another zero line oscillator, and similarly to CMF, it's a way of measuring price movements in the chart versus a/d. The zero line isn't just any old zero line, however, it is actually the accumulation distribution line. I've made an OBV version of this by substituting the OBV for AD, so if you prefer OBV maybe you will like that.
Pos. & Neg Net Volume is actually an indicator I had seen made by RafaelZioni. It basically takes net volume, calculates a cumulative of that, then subtracts a moving average of some period from the cumulative net volume in order to create a volume oscillator. Use it like the other oscillators!
Added Donchian Channels, moving averages, Bollinger Bands, colored everything, and alerts.
Enjoy!
Below I will post images with the different indicators, everything on default settings (except for lookback period, which I have adjusted to my personal preferences).
Above is an image with the MFI being compared to the RSI since they are very similar (MFI being basically a volume derivative of the RSI).
Chaikin Money Flow set to lookback of 13. You could probably extend that a bit if you wanted to smooth the line more.

+ Accumulation/DistributionThis is an updated version (with lots of extras added) of the Accumulation/Distribution indicator coded by @Cl8DH.
You can read about what he says about his indicator, and how to use it, here:
So, from that, what have I done?
I added a moving average (of which there are many types to choose from) so that you can use this as a "two lines cross" indicator, as well as a "mid-line cross" indicator.
I added Bollinger Bands (primarily for when "range" is turned off, but if you want to use the Bands with it in fixed range mode too, that's fine. You do you.).
I added candle coloring for both ways of using this indicator:
In rangebound mode there is overbought and oversold coloring, as well as bullish (ADP above the MA and median) and bearish (ADP below the MA and median), and neutral (ADP is above the MA but below the median, or below the MA and above the median). With range turned off there is no overbought or oversold of course. Above the MA and median is bullish, below both is bearish, and neutral covers that grey area where it's neither one nor the other.
The indicator itself is also colored in the same way the candles are. The MA and BBands are biased colored as well (green/red).
Alerts for pretty much every condition imaginable.
Please note in the image above the indicator is pretty gaudy. I don't use it like that, and you can turn a lot of that stuff off (lines, shading, etc.). That is just the default settings.
Like I said, I think Bollinger Bands make most sense if you have it set to range off, but they could be useful either way. Depends on you, the trader.
The candle color is 100% based on the moving average, so if you are using the BBands, set your MA to the default 20 SMA because that's what BBands use for the basis. If you just turn off the MA, whatever it is set to the indicator will still see that and use it (unless you turn off candle colors) to color the candles.
Above is the same image, but just with range turned off, and the Bollinger Bands turned off.
That's all. Hope you like this! It's becoming a favorite of mine, and a lot of what I've implemented here will be added to my previously released indicators, as well as any new ones. Indicador
