Volume Per Second shows how fast volume is coming in, by dividing each bar's volume by its duration in seconds.
Because the value is "volume per second", it can be compared directly across all timeframes.
How it works
• Closed bars: volume ÷ full period length (e.g. 60 s on M1, 900 s on M15, 3600 s on H1)
• Current bar: volume ÷ seconds elapsed since the bar opened, refreshed every second even when no new ticks arrive
• Warm-up smoothing: in the first part of a new bar, the seconds that have not passed yet are filled with the previous bar's rate, so the value does not spike or drop to zero right after a new bar opens
• Histogram plus an optional SMA/EMA moving average in a separate window
• Works with tick volume or real volume; falls back to tick volume automatically if the symbol has no real volume
Input parameters
• Volume type – tick volume or real volume
• MA period – period of the moving average (0 = off)
• MA type – SMA or EMA
• Update current bar every second – refresh the forming bar once per second on live charts
• Current bar warm-up, % of period – length of the warm-up smoothing as % of the bar period (0 = off, default 20)
• MA excludes current (forming) bar – the MA uses closed bars only, so the line does not wobble
Notes
• Forex and most CFD symbols only provide tick volume.
• On MN1 the period length is fixed at 30 days.
• This indicator is an analysis tool. It does not give trading signals and does not guarantee any
