Market Synopsis

The Positive Volume Index (PVI) is a cumulative value (starting from 100) that is calculated by adding the percent change of the Close (from the prior bar) to the prior bar PVI value if the volume of the current bar is greater than the volume of the prior bar. Since this is an accumulative calculation, the function must be a series function to ensure it is called on every bar.
