Scanning for Volume Moves outside an Average Volume "Channel"

[Trader47]

I am trying to scan for stocks with serious unchanged volume for a specified time period. I know how to do it for price by using the near_high_low filter in combination with a specific duration and + or - % change. Kind of like creating a "flatliner" price channel and then I would scan for prices that move a % outside that channel. Back to Volume. Looking for a script or custom filter that will calculate Average Volume over a specified period and then spot a candle that is some percentage above the average volume. Kind of a "pre-pop" indicator. A "flatliner", either price or volume or both and then suddenly a "heartbeat" suggesting something is coming. Any suggestions or any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Trader47.

Is it possible to poll volume on the current candle at certain time periods such as 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds?

I'm looking for the same thing, except I'm looking for a relative volume "pop" from the last time period
For example:
currentVolume(@5seconds) > lastVolume(@5seconds) * 1.05
currentVolume(@10seconds)>lastVolume(@10seconds)*1.05
currentVolume(@15seconds)>lastVolume(@15seconds)*1.05
currentPrice > lastClosePrice

Not sure what you mean by "poll."

Do you mean "pull."

Maybe check this out

poll - as in "check"
i want to grab the value of volume at different time periods within the 1 min candle.
5 sec
10 sec
15 sec


So let's say last 1 min candle
5 sec: volume = 100
10 sec: volume = 200
15 sec: volume = 300

and THIS 1 min candle
5 sec: volume = 150
10 sec: volume = 300
15 sec: volume = 600

That would indicate that there's a lot of momentum in the volume during this one minute vs last one minute. And possibly a good scalping opportunity.
