Enhanced Volume

**Enhanced Volume (EnVol)**
A volume histogram that classifies every bar into one of eight tiers, so you can see at a glance whether volume is dry, normal, elevated, a spike, or a pocket pivot. Columns are colored by tier, and a volume moving average is drawn as a reference line.
**Key features**
- **Eight-tier classification:** Each bar gets exactly one color. The highest-priority matching signal wins.
- **Pocket Pivot Volume (PPV):** The strongest signals.
- **PPV Up:** The bar closes up and its volume exceeds the highest down-day volume in the lookback window.
- **PPV Down:** The bar closes down and its volume exceeds the highest up-day volume in the lookback window.
- **Volume spikes:** Volume above a chosen percentage of its moving average, split into spike up and spike down by the close direction.
- **Dry volume:** Flags bars with volume far below average, a sign of low participation or a pause.
- **Hi-Vol Up / Down:** Above-average volume that hasn't reached spike level.
- **Neutral:** Below-average volume with no other signal, shown in muted gray.
- **Volume MA line:** Optional reference line over the histogram.
- **Warm-up protection:** No signals fire until the baseline has valid data.
- **Real-time updates:** Signals recalculate on every tick of the live bar.
**Signal priority (highest first)**
1. PPV Up
2. PPV Down
3. Spike Up
4. Spike Down
5. Dry Volume
6. Hi-Vol Up
7. Hi-Vol Down
8. Neutral
**Settings**
- **Volume Baseline:** MA length (default 20) and a toggle for the MA line.
- **PPV:** Lookback in bars (default 10) used to find the highest opposing-day volume.
- **Spike:** Threshold as a percentage of the MA. Example: 200 means 2× average.
- **Dry Volume:** Threshold as a multiple of the MA (default 0.3, meaning below 30% of average).
- **Bar Colors:** Every tier's color is configurable, plus the MA line color.
**How to use it**
- Look for PPV Up bars during basing or pullback phases, since they show buyers absorbing more than the heaviest recent selling.
- Treat PPV Down and spike-down bars near highs as potential distribution warnings.
- Use dry-volume bars as a sign of low interest, often seen as a base tightens before a move.
- Tune the spike threshold and MA length to the instrument and timeframe. Shorter MAs suit intraday charts, longer ones suit daily and weekly.
- Combine with price structure, trend and support/resistance rather than trading the colors alone.
**Notes**
Direction is based on the close versus the previous close, not the candle's own open. Because this is a separate pane indicator, it uses the chart symbol's own volume, so it works best on instruments with reliable volume data. Forex volume is usually tick volume and is less dependable.
