The Volume Delta Candles Indicator for MetaTrader 5, developed by LuxAlgo, is a cutting-edge tool that allows traders to see real-time buying and selling pressure within each candlestick. By comparing bid and ask volume at micro timeframes, this indicator provides an intuitive, color-coded representation of market order flow—helping traders make faster, more informed decisions.

Whether Scalping, day trading, or using order flow strategies, Volume Delta Candles bring transparency to market dynamics that standard charts often hide.
How the Volume Delta Candles Indicator Works
This indicator calculates the delta between buying and selling volume and visualizes it directly on your candlestick chart:
- Teal Bars → Buyers dominate; bullish pressure is increasing.
- Crimson Bars → Sellers dominate; bearish pressure is intensifying.
By observing these delta bars, traders can quickly identify:
- Reversal zones
- Breakout confirmations
- Areas of absorption or rejection
- Momentum shifts within intrabar or lower timeframes
With optional intrabar delta monitoring (e.g., 1-minute charts), you can track micro-level buying and selling activity and integrate it into higher timeframe analysis for precision timing.
