Cumulative Delta Flow MT5 is a separate-window tick-volume flow oscillator for MetaTrader 5. It estimates signed buying and selling pressure from candle position, candle direction, and tick volume, then plots a cumulative delta line with a signal line and divergence markers.

Use it to spot:

• Positive and negative tick-volume pressure by bar.
• Accumulation or distribution using the CVD line.
• Momentum shifts when CVD crosses or separates from its signal line.
• Potential price/CVD divergences for manual review.

What it shows:

• Green positive delta histogram bars.
• Red negative delta histogram bars.
• Blue cumulative delta flow line.
• Gold signal line.
• Violet divergence markers when price and CVD disagree over the selected lookback.

Main inputs:

• MaxCalculatedBars: limits historical calculation for performance.
• SignalPeriod: smoothing period for the CVD signal line.
• DivergenceLookback: bars used for divergence comparison.
• ResetDaily: restarts the cumulative line on a new trading day.
• ShowDivergenceMarkers: shows or hides divergence markers.
• DeltaScale: scales tick-volume values for easier chart reading.

Buffers:

• Buffer 0: positive delta histogram.
• Buffer 1: negative delta histogram.
• Buffer 2: cumulative delta flow line.
• Buffer 3: signal line.
• Buffer 4: divergence marker value.
• Buffer 5: raw signed delta calculation.

Risk note: this is a technical analysis tool. It estimates order-flow pressure from broker tick volume and candle behavior; it does not use exchange bid/ask volume and does not guarantee profitable trades.
