Volume Footprint Voids [BigBeluga]

27 Jan

Volume Footprint Voids is a unique tool that uses lower timeframe calculation to plot different styles of single candle POC.

This indicator is very powerful for scalping and finding very precise entry and exits, spotting potential trapped traders, and more.

Unlike many other volume profiles, this aims to plot single candle profiles as well as their own footprints.

🔶 FEATURES

The script includes the following settings:

• Windows: Plotting style and calculations
  
• Coloring modes
  
• Display modes
  
• lower-timeframe calculations
  

🔶 CALCULATION



In the image above we can see how the script calculates each level position that will serve as a calculation process to see how much volume/closes there are within the levels.



In the image above, we can have a more clear example of how we count each candle close.
We use the prior screenshot as an example, after setting each level we will use the lower-timeframe input to measure the amount of closes within the ranges.

Depending on the lot size, the box will be larger or smaller, usually the POC will always have the highest box size.

NOTE: Size is the starting point, always from the low of the candle.
To find more voids, select a closer LTF to the current one you're using.
To find fewer voids, select a timeframe away from your current one.
Due to Pine Script limitations, we are only able to plot a certain amount of footprints, and we can't plot the whole history chart.



POC will be the largest block displayed, indicating the time point of control
Gray areas are closes above the average
Black are Void or imbalance that price will fill in the future, like FVG



The image above shows an incorrect size input that will lead to bad calculations, while on the other side, a correct size input that will lead to a clear vision and better calculation.

🔶 WINDOWS



The "▲▼" Mode will display delta buyers and delta sellers coloring with voids as black.
It also offers a gradient mode for a beautier visualization



The "Total Volume" mode will display the net volume within the lot size (closes within the levels).
This is useful to spot possible highest net volume within the same highest lot size.



The "POC + Gaps" will show both POC and Gaps as the highest block while all the rest will be considered as the smaller block.
This is useful to see where the highest lot were and if there are higher or lower imbalances within the candle


The last option "Gaps" will simply display the gaps as the highest block, while the POC as the lowest block.
This is useful to have a better view of the gaps areas

🔶 EXAMPLE



This is one of the most basic examples of how this script can be used. POC at the bottom creating a strong support area as price holds and creates higher voids gap that price fills while rising.

🔶 SETTINGS

Users have full control over the script, from colors to choosing the lower-timeframe inputs to disabling the lot size.
