Volume Zones

Volume Zones
This script identifies and visualizes areas of interest based on relative volume activity and price structure. It is designed to highlight zones where increased participation may have influenced price behavior, which can be useful for tracking potential areas of reaction, continuation, or rejection.
The approach combines volume thresholds, candle structure, and optional multi-timeframe context to build a clearer view of where meaningful activity has occurred.
How It Works
The script scans historical data over a configurable lookback period and compares current volume to a moving average baseline.
When volume exceeds a defined threshold, the candle is evaluated for structural characteristics such as:
• Body size relative to total range
• Upper and lower wick dominance
• Directional close
Based on this, zones are classified as:
• Bullish zones (buy-side interest)
• Bearish zones (sell-side interest)
• Neutral/high-activity zones
Each detected zone is stored and projected forward on the chart for a set number of bars.
Zone Behavior
Bullish zones are typically formed when:
• Strong upward candles occur on elevated volume
• Lower wicks suggest rejection of lower prices
Bearish zones are typically formed when:
• Strong downward candles occur on elevated volume
• Upper wicks suggest rejection of higher prices
Neutral zones may form during high-volume indecision candles.
These zones can act as areas of potential support, resistance, or liquidity interaction.
Mitigation Logic
Zones can be automatically invalidated when price closes through them.
• Bullish zones are removed when price breaks below the zone
• Bearish zones are removed when price breaks above the zone
This helps keep the chart focused on currently relevant areas.
Multi-Timeframe Stacking
Optional higher timeframe inputs allow zones to be evaluated against broader structure.
When a zone aligns with higher timeframe ranges, its visual intensity is increased.
This can help identify areas where multiple layers of activity overlap.
Visual Output
• Zones are displayed as extended boxes on the chart
• Color intensity reflects the degree of alignment (stacking)
• Volume labels provide a relative measure of activity strength
• Older or mitigated zones are removed to reduce clutter
Volume Context
The script also estimates directional volume within each candle by separating buying and selling pressure based on price position within the range.
This information is summarized in a small dashboard, along with:
• Relative buy and sell strength
• Configurable target and stop values
• Implied risk-to-reward ratio

Notes
This tool is intended to provide context around volume and structure rather than act as a standalone system.
It can be used alongside:
• Price action analysis
• Support and resistance
• Market structure concepts
As with any tool, results will vary depending on market conditions and how it is applied.
