Title: Fixed Volume Candle Chart
Post by: timz on December 06, 2014, 08:33:13 PM
Hi,
Analyzing bitcoin candle chart you may see, that sometimes the price fluctuates with a very small volumes. Finally these fluctuations doesn't affect to trend, but spoil the chart.
I have the idea. What if we draw candle chart depended of volume, not time? Every candle corresponds to the fixed trade volume.

I've made first preview https://zerobit.co/charts/chart.html?vol=5000 (you may select volume).
What do you think? Is it a promising idea?

Improvements:
- Log scale
- Scrolling
- Live Update
- Candle info

Every candle corresponds to current fixed volume. So the chart is really unbroken, smoothes the weekend's low value trades etc.

Interesting idea. One question: the higher the "fixed" volume, the less it actually seems to be fixed. For example, on the 100k chart, the first candles are ~30k volume, and only the last few candles get close to 100k. Or maybe I'm missing something?

Yes, I implemented special reducing factor. Because two years ago volumes were smaller.

Normal volume bars don't spoil the chart. It allows you to see the trend because volume rises with trending moves. It also allows you to see volume divergence to find tops and bottoms. Try that with a fixed volume chart  ;)
A better chart may be delta volume or individual +/- volume where the volume bars are independent from the candle close color
