Cumulative Delta Volume Indicator for MT5 (CDV Indicator for MT5)
Volume-Based Market Sentiment and Trend Strength Indicator
The Cumulative Delta Volume (CDV) indicator analyzes the balance between buying and selling volume to reveal the underlying market sentiment.
By accumulating the difference between upward and downward volume, it shows whether buyers or sellers are in control and helps traders confirm the strength or weakness of a trend.
This tool provides both candle-based visualization and a line-based cumulative delta chart, allowing traders to view shifts in order flow with clarity. It can optionally use Heikin Ashi candles for smoother interpretation and includes SMA and EMA overlays for trend confirmation.
How It Works
-
Volume Delta Calculation
-
For each bar, the indicator estimates how much of the volume belongs to buying or selling activity.
-
The delta is the difference between bullish and bearish volume components.
-
-
Cumulative Summation
-
These deltas are accumulated over time to display a continuous measure of buying or selling pressure.
-
A rising CDV line indicates dominant buying; a falling CDV line shows selling dominance.
-

Excellent job! This is the very first CDV that I can use not only for manual trading, but also for algo. And as a bonus, Mohammad is a very responsive creator who is willing to implement your idea when it makes sense. And at lightning speed. I give 6 stars !
