ZenScalper Volume Surge Overlay
ZenScalper Volume Surge Overlay highlights unusual volume activity directly on the price chart by comparing current volume to a moving average of volume.
Features:
• Detects volume spikes relative to average volume.
• Displays labels above candles showing the strength of the surge:
2x = Volume is at least 2 times average
3x = Volume is at least 3 times average
4x = Volume is at least 4 times average
5x+ = Extreme volume expansion
• Helps identify potential breakout candles, liquidation events, reversals, institutional participation, and key reaction points.
• Designed to work alongside price action, VWAP, EMA, support/resistance, and market structure analysis.
Inputs:
Volume SMA Length: Defines the average volume baseline.
Label Size: Adjusts marker visibility.
Surge Thresholds: Customize the minimum multiples required for each label level.
This indicator does not generate buy or sell signals. It is intended as a volume confirmation tool to help traders quickly identify candles receiving significantly more participation than normal.
Best used in conjunction with trend, momentum, and price action analysis.
