PipTick Volume indicator is great tool for measuring of tick volume activity. It helps traders simply and quickly evaluate the current size of volume. The indicator for the classification of the size of volume uses moving average and its multiples. Accordingly, where the volume is located (relative to the moving average), it is labeled as ultra low, low, average, high, very high or ultra high.
This indicator can calculate moving average by four methods:
SMA - Simple Moving Average
SMMA - Smoothed Moving Average
EMA - Exponential Moving Average
LWMA - Linear Weighted Moving Average
Interpretation of the indicator
By default, there are six zones which can be changed by user. Depending on which zone corresponds to the volume, the bar of histogram is colored by appropriate color. This way you can easily recognize how high the volume is, in comparison with the previous bars.
Ultra Low volume zone - Gray
Low volume zone - White
Average volume zone - Yellow
High volume zone - Gold
Very High volume zone - DarkOrange
Ultra High volume zone - Crimson

Outputs parameters
Average Volume - Displays value of average volume by period
Volume - Displays values of volume
Type - Displays number of zone type. 1 - 6 according the zone. Number 1 means ultra low, 6 means ultra high
Low - Displays values of low zone. Otherwise value equals zero
Average - Displays values of average zone. Otherwise value equals zero
High - Displays values of high zone. Otherwise value equals zero
Very High - Displays values of very high zone. Otherwise value equals zero
Ultra High - Displays values of ultra high zone. Otherwise value equals zero
