Indicator Name: ClusterDelta_#Delta
The #Delta indicator shows the difference between market buyers and sellers. The indicator shows the difference between the volume executed at the Ask price or higher (bearish trades) and the volume executed at the Bid price or lower (bearish trades).
Delta is equal to the formula: Ask minus Bid. This indicator shows the delta of each bar on the current timeframe.
The data looks like a histogram in a separate window.
The general idea of this indicator is that it shows the trend of the market. Analyze it together with ClusterDelta_Volume on volume peaks. At this point, also look for delta spikes - this usually means that the trend is over (if it happens at the end of the trend), but also, if it happens at the beginning of a new move, it can be a powerful push of the price. Look at the delta, how the market reacts to it on some bars.
