Delta Volume Profile Zones MT4

Delta Volume Profile Zones is a compact volume-profile indicator for traders who want price-level context without turning the chart into a crowded footprint screen.

It builds a rolling profile from recent candles, separates estimated bullish and bearish participation, and marks the key zones traders usually watch: Point of Control, Value Area High, Value Area Low, high-volume nodes, and low-volume areas.

Use it to:

• Identify where recent trading activity is concentrated.
• Find the Point of Control as the main acceptance level for the current lookback.
• Use Value Area High and Value Area Low as context for rotations, breakouts, and mean reversion.
• Spot high-volume nodes that may act as reaction zones.
• Spot low-volume areas where price may move quickly through thin participation.
• Compare bullish and bearish volume pressure inside each profile row.

What it shows:

• Right-side volume profile drawn directly on the price chart.
• Green profile segments for estimated bullish participation.
• Red profile segments for estimated bearish participation.
• Gold POC line for the highest-volume price row.
• Cyan VAH and VAL lines for the selected value area.
• Optional high-volume and low-volume zone highlights.
• Optional signal arrows for POC bias, value-area breakouts, and rejection setups.

Main features:

• Works on Forex, indices, metals, crypto, and synthetic symbols.
• Uses tick volume when real exchange volume is not available.
• Configurable lookback bars, profile rows, profile width, and value-area percentage.
• Optional bullish/bearish split for each profile row.
• Clean chart presentation designed for active intraday use.
• Hidden POC buffer for EA or strategy integration.
• Hidden signal buffer for EA or scanner integration.

Basic use:

1. Add the indicator to the chart.
2. Start with the default lookback and row settings.
3. Watch the POC to see where price is currently being accepted.
4. Use VAH and VAL to frame balanced and stretched price areas.
5. Use high-volume and low-volume rows as context, not as standalone trade signals.
