All Volume Average Forex Indicator (MT4)

About the All Volume Average Forex Indicator

The All Volume Average Indicator for MT4 is a smart tool that helps you measure and visualize market activity using average volume levels.

It offers a dynamic way to detect when the market is heating up or cooling down, allowing traders to time entries and exits more effectively by watching for volume surges.

Unlike traditional volume bars, this indicator overlays an average line and gives a visual cue when the current volume crosses above or falls below the average, giving you a powerful edge in spotting breakout conditions, fakeouts, or trend continuation.

Key Features of the Indicator

• Plots real-time volume along with a dynamic average volume line
• Highlights when the current volume exceeds the average (breakout potential)
• Color-coded bars:
  Green for above-average,
  Red for below-average
• Works on all timeframes and currency pairs
• Non-repainting and lightweight on MT4

How It Works

The indicator tracks the tick volume of each candle and calculates the average over a customizable number of periods.

When the current volume exceeds this moving average, the volume bar turns green, signaling a possible increase in market participation and volatility.

If it’s below average, it displays a red bar, suggesting consolidation or low activity.

This volume filter can help you avoid entering trades during low volume periods and stay aligned with smart money activity during strong moves.
