Asset Liquidity Meter by Funded RelayAsset Liquidity Meter by Funded Relay
This indicator estimates the liquidity of any asset by calculating the volume traded per unit of price movement (volume / (high - low)).
Higher values generally indicate better liquidity (more volume in a smaller price range → easier to enter/exit positions with less slippage).
Lower values suggest thinner liquidity (higher risk of price impact and volatility).
The indicator displays:
• Histogram: raw liquidity per bar (green = above SMA, red = below SMA)
• SMA line: smoothed liquidity trend
• Real-time info table in the top-right corner
• Built-in alert conditions
How to Use – Step by Step
1. Adding the Indicator
- Open any chart on PulseWire
- Click the "Indicators" button at the top
- Search for "Asset Liquidity Meter v6" (or find it in Community Scripts / My Scripts)
- Click to add it to the chart
- It will appear in a separate pane below the price chart
2. Customizing Settings
Double-click the indicator name in the pane (or right-click → Settings):
• SMA Length (default: 14)
- Controls the smoothing period of the liquidity trend line
- Smaller values (5–10) → more responsive, good for intraday/scalping
- Larger values (20–50) → smoother trend, better for swing/position trading
• Epsilon (default: 0.00000001)
- Tiny value that prevents division-by-zero errors on flat bars (high = low)
- Almost never needs to be changed
• Colors
- High Liquidity Color: histogram bars when liquidity > SMA
- Low Liquidity Color: histogram bars when liquidity < SMA
- SMA Line Color: color of the smoothed trend line
• Show Alert Conditions in Menu
- Keep enabled (true) to see the built-in alert options when creating alerts
3. Reading & Interpreting the Indicator
• Histogram Bars (Raw Liquidity)
- Height = amount of volume per unit of price range
- Tall bars = high liquidity (market is "thick")
- Short bars = low liquidity (market is "thin")
- Green = current liquidity is stronger than the average (SMA)
- Red = current liquidity is weaker than the average
• Blue SMA Line
- Shows the average liquidity over the selected period
- Rising line → liquidity improving (more participants, easier trading)
- Falling line → liquidity decreasing (thinner market, caution advised)
• Info Table (top-right corner)
- Displays current raw liquidity, SMA value, and status ("High Liquidity" / "Low Liquidity")
- Updates in real-time on the last bar
• Zero Line (dotted gray)
- Visual reference — everything above zero is positive liquidity
4. Practical Trading Applications
• High Liquidity Zones (green bars + rising SMA)
- Favorable conditions for entering or scaling into positions
- Lower expected slippage
- Better for large orders
• Low Liquidity Zones (red bars + falling SMA)
- Higher risk of slippage and exaggerated price moves
- Consider smaller position sizes or waiting for better conditions
- Common during session opens/closes, holidays, or low-volume periods
• Crossovers
- Liquidity crossing above SMA → potential increase in market participation
- Liquidity crossing below SMA → potential drying up of interest
5. Setting Up Alerts
1. Right-click on the chart → "Add Alert"
2. In "Condition", select "Asset Liquidity Meter v6"
3. Choose one of the available alert conditions:
- Liquidity ↑ Crosses Above SMA
- Liquidity ↓ Crosses Below SMA
- Very High Liquidity (2× SMA)
- Very Low Liquidity (<30% SMA)
4. Set frequency (Once Per Bar Close is usually best)
5. Configure notification (email, popup, sound, webhook, etc.)
6. Create the alert
6. Tips for Best Results
• Works on all markets: stocks, forex, crypto, futures, indices
• Best on timeframes with meaningful volume data (5 min and higher usually give clearest signals)
• Compare liquidity across different assets or timeframes using multiple charts
• Combine with support/resistance, volume profile or order flow tools for confirmation
• Not a standalone signal — use in context with your overall strategy
Limitations & Notes
• This is an estimation based on OHLCV data — it does not show real order book depth
• Results vary significantly between centralized exchanges, brokers and instruments
• Zero-volume bars will show zero liquidity (expected behavior)
Enjoy safer and more informed trading!
