Section 1 - What This Indicator Is
Order Flow Matrix is a multi-timeframe dashboard that estimates whether buyers or sellers are in control on the symbol you are viewing. It reads candle data and volume on five timeframes at the same time (default M15, M30, H1, H4 and D1), turns them into simple scores, and shows the result in one large table in the center of the chart. It was designed mainly for XAUUSD (gold), but it works on any symbol that has volume data.
Important: this is not real order flow. Pine Script has no access to real order book data or to what banks, funds or institutions are doing. Every number in the dashboard is an estimate built only from the open, high, low, close and volume of the chart. Nothing in the table is typed in by hand; every value is calculated from chart data.
Section 2 - Why It Was Built
Most traders check several timeframes by switching charts again and again, and they judge volume, trend, momentum and structure separately. This takes time and the pieces are rarely compared in one place. Order Flow Matrix puts the main questions in one table: who is pushing price (volume delta), is buying pressure building up over time (CVD), is price above or below the trend (EMA), what is the swing structure (pivots), and what is the overall weighted bias across timeframes.
Section 3 - Why It Is Not Just a Mashup
Every part of the script feeds one common scoring model. Volume delta, CVD, EMA bias and pivot structure are converted into 0 to 100 scores, weighted, and combined into one bull percentage per timeframe, and then into one overall percentage. The Technical Snapshot section (RSI, EMA distance, fair value gap, order block and relative volume) is a separate read-only section on the same dashboard so you can confirm the bias without opening other indicators. The calculations, scoring and layout were written from scratch for this script.
Section 4 - How It Works Step by Step
Step 1: For each of the five timeframes the script requests data with request. security, using one request per timeframe, with lookahead off and gaps off. There is no future data leak.
Step 2: On every bar the volume is split into estimated buy volume and sell volume (see Section 5).
Step 3: Delta is the sum of buy volume minus sell volume over the lookback (default 10 bars). It is scored from 0 to 100 by comparing it with the average absolute delta of the last 100 bars. A delta of zero gives a score of 50.
Step 4: CVD (cumulative volume delta) is compared with its own EMA and its 5-bar slope. Rising scores 100, Flat scores 50, Falling scores 0.
Step 5: EMA bias uses the fast EMA (default 50) and slow EMA (default 200). Price above the fast EMA with the fast above the slow is bullish (100). The mirror case is bearish (0). Everything else is neutral (50).
Step 6: Structure uses the last two confirmed pivot highs and the last two confirmed pivot lows. Higher highs with higher lows is bullish (100), lower highs with lower lows is bearish (0), otherwise Range (50).
Step 7: The four scores are combined with weights (default Delta 35, CVD 25, EMA 20, Structure 20) into the bull percentage of that timeframe. Bear percentage is 100 minus bull percentage.
Step 8: The timeframe bias is Bull if the bull percentage is 60 or more, Bear if it is 40 or less, and Neutral in between. The thresholds can be changed.
Step 9: The overall score is the weighted average of the timeframe bull percentages (default weights 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, normalized automatically over the visible rows).
Section 5 - Volume Delta Methods
Candle position: buy volume equals volume multiplied by (close minus low) divided by (high minus low), and sell volume equals volume multiplied by (high minus close) divided by (high minus low). If high equals low, the volume is split 50 and 50.
Candle direction: the whole volume goes to buyers if the candle closes above its open, to sellers if it closes below, and 50 and 50 if equal.
Lower timeframe (intrabar): every candle of a lower timeframe (default 1 minute) inside the bar is classified by close versus open. This needs a TradingView plan that supports that lower timeframe. If the data is not available, the script automatically falls back to the Candle position method, and the tooltip tells you which method was used.
Section 6 - The Main Dashboard
Each row is one timeframe. The columns are:
Timeframe - the label, for example M15, H1, D1.
Volume Delta (est.) - an arrow and the estimated net volume, for example up arrow plus 2.4K or down arrow minus 1.2K. Hover to see estimated buy volume, sell volume, the lookback and the method used.
CVD Trend - Rising, Falling or Flat.
EMA 50/200 - Above, Below or Mixed.
Structure - Higher high, Lower low or Range. Hover to see the last pivot high and pivot low comparison.
Bias - Bull, Bear or Neutral with a percentage, for example Bull 70 percent. Hover to see the four component scores, their weights and the weight of this timeframe in the overall score.
Green cells are bullish, red cells are bearish and grey cells are neutral or unavailable. Each cell is colored by its own component, so the table works like a heat map.
Section 7 - The Overall Bar
Under the timeframe rows there is a segmented bar made of 20 cells. The number of green cells equals the overall bull percentage divided by 5, and the remaining cells are red. Under the bar the exact text is shown, for example Bulls 62 percent and Bears 38 percent. This is the weighted result of all visible timeframes.
Section 8 - The Technical Snapshot
This second block gives one more row per timeframe, calculated on that timeframe:
RSI - the value with a label: Bullish above 50, Bearish below 50, Overbought at 70 or more, Oversold at 30 or less. Cell color is bullish at 55 or more and bearish at 45 or less.
Dist. EMA 50 - how far price is from the fast EMA in percent.
Last FVG - the most recent three-candle fair value gap (bullish when the low is above the high two bars earlier, bearish when the high is below the low two bars earlier), and whether price is above, inside or below it. Hover to see the zone prices.
Last Order Block - the last opposite candle before an impulse candle (body at least 1.5 times ATR by default), shown as intact, tapped or broken. Hover to see the zone prices.
Rel. Vol - the current bar volume divided by the 20-bar average volume, with High at 1.5x or more and Low below 0.5x.
Section 9 - How To Analyze With It
1) Start with the Overall bar. A value above 60 percent means most weighted timeframes lean bullish, below 40 percent means they lean bearish, and values in the middle mean the market is mixed.
2) Check alignment. The strongest situation is when all timeframes show the same bias. Mixed colors between lower and higher timeframes usually mean a pullback or a range.
3) Look at higher timeframes first (H4 and D1) to see the main direction, then use M15, M30 and H1 to time entries in that direction.
4) Compare delta and CVD. If delta is positive and CVD is Rising, buying pressure is consistent. If price rises while delta is negative and CVD is Falling, the move has weak support.
5) Use the Structure and EMA columns to confirm direction. Bull bias with Higher high and price Above the EMAs is a cleaner picture than Bull bias with Range structure.
6) Use the Technical Snapshot to avoid chasing. RSI at Overbought or Oversold, a large distance from the EMA, or price sitting inside an order block or fair value gap can warn you that a reaction is near.
7) Always manage risk with your own stop loss and position size. This dashboard shows bias, it is not an entry or exit signal.
Section 10 - Live Mode and Confirmed Mode
By default the dashboard is in live mode: every row uses the current forming bar, so values move up and down with price. If you switch on Use confirmed (closed) HTF bars only, every row reads the previous closed bar of its timeframe and the values stay fixed until the next bar closes. Both modes avoid lookahead. Live values can change before a bar closes, so a Bull reading on a forming bar can become Neutral by the close.
Section 11 - Settings
Timeframes: five timeframe inputs, a show checkbox and a weight for each, and the confirmed bars option.
Volume Delta: delta method, intrabar timeframe, delta lookback, and K and M number format.
CVD: EMA smoothing length.
Trend: fast and slow EMA lengths.
Structure: pivot length.
Scoring: weights of Delta, CVD, EMA and Structure, and the bull and bear thresholds.
Technical Snapshot: show or hide, RSI length, ATR length and the order block impulse size.
Style and Size: dashboard position (default center), dashboard width and height in percent of the chart (default large so it covers most of the chart while leaving the top and bottom free for the symbol name and time axis), theme (auto, dark, light), text size (auto scales with the dashboard), bull, bear and neutral colors, and tooltips on or off.
Section 12 - Alerts
Alerts are available for: overall bulls crossing above the bull threshold, overall bulls crossing below the bear threshold, all visible timeframes Bull at the same time, all visible timeframes Bear at the same time, and a bias flip on the third timeframe (H1 by default). Each message includes the symbol and the overall bull percentage.
Section 13 - Limitations
Volume on forex and gold is tick volume, not real traded volume, so buy and sell volume are estimates.
The intrabar method depends on your TradingView plan and on how much lower timeframe history is available.
CVD starts from the first loaded bar, so it can look different if you load more or less history.
In live mode values can change until the bar closes.
The dashboard is large by default and can cover candles. Reduce its width and height, or move it to a corner, if you want to see price behind it.
