Indicator Name: ClusterDelta #Infusion
The value of the indicator is that it can find large accumulations of volume on the current chart. For each instrument and each timeframe there is a certain volume size, after which the volume becomes "large". To find this value, indicator analyses deep history, and based on result a predictive value is formed for each next day.
The Infusion indicator is not only an indicator, but already a kind of self-adapting analytical module for searching for large volumes.
Big volumes are the stimulators of the market, the market is pushed by volumes and where they "appear" the market reacts in its own way. Big volume can push the market as well as they can stop it. Also, the interesting fact about this indicator is that in addition to analyzing the large volumes, it can indicate extreme delta values, which show an imbalance between buyers and sellers in the market.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INFUSION INDICATOR PANEL
The Title of the Infusion panel contains the "Authorizer" icon, the indicator name, the mode of calculation, the number of days to load to load and display, where the value "None" removes Infusion data from the chart, an Alert icon, an icon (arrow down) to open the Advanced Panel and the next icon (arrow up) to close the current Infusion GUI panel.
Advanced Panel has the options for the Infusion indicator.
Min Volume is the minimum value of the volume that is required to show it as an Infusion object.
Percent is a percentage of the daily volume that would be used to calculate Infusion minimum volume size for the Expert mode (There is a Simple mode also that just uses the manual value of the minimum Volume Size).
