Relative Volume (RVOL) Surge Dashboard

Overview
The **Relative Volume (RVOL) Surge Dashboard** is a utility script designed to visually isolate institutional activity and anomalies in volume. In financial markets, sudden volume spikes that double the recent average often signal institutional presence, news-driven breakouts, or potential trend exhaustion points.
This indicator keeps your main chart clean while feeding you live volume metrics via an on-chart HUD (Heads-Up Display).
Key Features
* **Live Relative Volume Multiplier: ** Instantly displays exactly how many times the current bar's volume is exceeding its standard historical moving average (e.g., 1.54x, 3.10x).
* **Smart UI Dashboard: ** A customizable, clean panel that switches colors (Green/Red) immediately depending on whether a 2x volume surge is active or normal.
* **On-Chart Signals: ** Draws a clean yellow cross at the bottom of the price bar whenever a volume anomaly occurs.
* **Built-in Alert Engine: ** Supports native Trading View alert conditions so you can receive push notifications, email, or webhook alerts the exact second a volume anomaly prints.
How to Use It
1. **Trend Breakout Confirmation: ** Look for the dashboard to trigger a green "2x ALERT: ACTIVE" during a consolidation breakout. High volume confirms validity.
2. **Climactic Reversals: ** If a stock has been in an extended downtrend/uptrend and suddenly prints a massive 2x+ volume spike without making significant price progress, look for a potential reversal.
3. **Customization: ** Use the settings panel to change the lookback period (default is 20 bars) or move the dashboard to any corner of your screen to prevent overlapping other indicators.
