volume buy sell signal

[f.saeidi]

hi.
in need to write one script as below condition:
if ( volume [candle 0] > volume [candle 1] ) in green color then give me buy signal and
if ( volume [candle 0] > volume [candle 1] ) in red color then give me sell signal
my question is which command can show ( volume candle[0] is greater than volume candle [1] ) to give me buy and sell signal?

when i use below script it cant determine between green and red volume candle

Print("volume up candle 1:"+VolumeUpDown().UpVolume[1]);
Print("volume up candle 2:"+VolumeUpDown().UpVolume[2]);



Print("\nvolume down candle 1:"+VolumeUpDown().DownVolume[1]);
Print("volume down candle 2:"+VolumeUpDown().DownVolume[2]);

how can i show volume candle is green or red?
in fact script cant understand green and red volume candle.

Hello f.saeidi,

Thanks for your post.

The VolumeUpDown indicator is a variation of the VOL (Volume) indicator that colors the volume histogram different color depending if the current bar is up or down bar.

To detect if the bar is an up bar (green), you could create a condition that checks if the Close price (Close[0]) is greater than the Open price (Open[0]).

To detect if the bar is a down bar (red), you could create a condition that checks if the Close price is less than the Open price.

For example, Close[0 > Open[0] would check if the current bar is an up bar (green). Close[1] < Open[1] would check if the previous bar is a down bar (red).

VolumeUpDown()[0] would be used to get the current bar's VolumeUpDown indicator value. VolumeUpDown()[1] would be used to get the previous bar's VolumeUpDown indicator value.
