Volume Matrix

Volume Matrix (VM) is a comprehensive volume and position-sizing toolkit designed to help traders interpret market participation and manage trade risk efficiently.
It combines volume analytics, risk-adjusted position sizing, and stock-specific financial data — all in a clear, visual, and automated format directly on TradingView charts.

The indicator integrates capital management, episodic volume spikes, and market capitalization data into a single, intuitive framework, giving traders an edge in both decision-making and discipline.

⚙️ Core Components & Features
🧩 1. Position Sizing & Risk Management
A dynamic risk table helps traders determine how much to trade and how much to risk per position, adapting automatically based on user inputs:
- Capital (CP): Total account size (₹ or $).
- Risk Mode (R): Choose between Percentage of capital or fixed Currency value.
- Lot Size Mode: Optional toggle to align quantities with F&O lot sizes (India-based).
- Standard Stop-Loss (SSL): Displays position quantities for three custom stop-loss levels (e.g., 0.75%, 1%, 1.25%).
- % Distance Metrics: D: Distance from day’s low/high (helps assess stop distance). DH: Distance from mid-body (useful for candle risk assessment). Auto-adjusts based on whether the trader is in Long, Short, or Both mode.

📈 Helps answer:
“How much quantity should I trade at my desired risk level?”

🔶 2. Volume Visualization
- Plots volume bars with default up/down coloring.
- Green for bullish bars.
- Red for bearish bars.
- Designed for quick visual differentiation of buying/selling pressure.

🚀 3. Episodic Pivot (EP) Detector
Identifies high-volume breakout or capitulation days, often marking significant turning points or trend initiations.
- Highlights bars where volume exceeds a custom threshold (in millions).
- Marks them visually with an orange triangle under the candle.
-Best used on daily charts to spot institutional footprints.

📊 Helps answer:
“Is today’s volume large enough to signal major institutional activity?”

🧾 4. Data Metrics Table
Displays fundamental and contextual data about the asset:
- Market Capitalization (MC): Auto-calculated using outstanding shares × price.
- Free Float (FF): Value of tradable shares in currency or Cr (INR).
- Industry × Sector × F&O Status: Shows the company’s industry and sector classification. Displays FC (Futures Contract) or NFC (Non-F&O stock).
- Customizable appearance: Choose between text/value display, text color, and background color. Flexible positioning and size control to suit any chart layout.

📚 Helps answer:
“What type of stock is this, how big is it, and does it trade in futures?”

🪄 5. User Interface Customization
- Modular UI grouped by functionality (Risk, Direction, Metrics, Volume, etc.).
- Flexible table position & size (Top/Bottom/Middle & Tiny–Huge).
- All elements are toggleable, giving full control over displayed data.
- Built to ensure visual clarity on any chart background.
