Volume Footprint
First and foremost, a special thanks to bassnavy for the direct request and inspiration to build this tool. I truly appreciate your comment!
Disclaimer: This is essentially a simplified script inspired by premium footprint tools (lol). I pay my utmost respect to TradingView and its amazing community!
This indicator is an "Advanced Precision Footprint Visualizer" built strictly on Pine Script v6. Standard footprint charts often struggle with TradingView's rendering limits (max 500 boxes). To overcome this, I engineered a dynamic tick-grouping algorithm that visualizes exact Bid/Ask deltas, volume densities, and Point of Control (POC) with extreme precision, without breaking the platform's constraints.
This tool is designed for highly disciplined traders who rely on verified entry setups. It filters out market noise and visually isolates true liquidity nodes.
Core Mechanics & Calculation Logic:
Tick Grouping (Step Calculation): step = syminfo.mintick * active_ticks
Why: Processing every single minimum tick would instantly exceed the 500-box drawing limit. By grouping ticks based on ATR (Auto Tiers) or a manual input, we compress the data while maintaining visual fidelity.
Output Example: If syminfo.mintick is 0.01 and active_ticks is set to 1, the step size becomes 0.01. If the bar's high is 16.59 and low is 16.26, the engine calculates exactly 34 rows for rendering.
Row Delta Determination: row_delta = Ask Volume - Bid Volume
Why: To accurately gauge whether buyers or sellers absorbed the liquidity at a specific price tier.
Output Example: If Ask volume is 2.5K and Bid volume is 1.0K at a specific row, the row_delta is +1.5K. The text dynamically changes to the "Plus Delta" color (Green).
3-Step Volume Gradient: half_max = max_r_v * 0.5
Why: To create a seamless 3-step color gradient (Low -> Mid -> High). By calculating the 50% threshold of the maximum volume (POC) inside the bar, it intuitively separates high-interest zones from market noise.
Premium Plan TF Downgrade Logic: actual_ltf = (not is_premium and is_sec_tf) ? "1" : ltf_res_input
Why: TradingView restricts seconds-based timeframes (like 1S or 15S) to Premium users and above. Requesting this data on lower plans causes script crashes. This logic automatically downgrades the timeframe to 1 (1-minute) if the Premium toggle is disabled, ensuring stability for all users.
Output Example: If the user inputs 15S and the Premium toggle is false, is_sec_tf evaluates to true. The condition not is_premium is met, so actual_ltf outputs "1" (1-minute). If the toggle is true, it outputs "15S".
Warning: This script operates at the absolute edge of TradingView's rendering capabilities. If you encounter rendering errors, please reduce the "Lookback Bars" or increase the "Lower Timeframe (LTF)" resolution.

Versionshinweise
Update Notes[ Stability Improvements & Performance Optimization ]
[Critical] Fixed Memory Release Logic for Drawing Objects
Resolved a potential bug related to the management of drawing objects (Boxes, Labels, Lines) that could occur during prolonged chart display or on lower timeframes. The logic now safely and reliably clears old drawing data, significantly improving the indicator's overall stability.
Performance Optimization
Optimized internal text and settings by pre-defining them as constants (const string), reducing execution overhead and improving processing speed.
Code Refactoring
Performed a comprehensive refactoring of the open-source code based on Pine Script(R) v6 best practices. Improvements include better section management and IDE folding support for enhanced readability. (Note: The core footprint calculation logic remains unchanged.)
