rth vwap and midMidpoint and VWAP are often important inflection points in daytrading. I managed to find a script providing me with a 24 hour session midline by NorthStarDayTrading and a RTH VWAP script by LDBC. So I decided to merge those two to get a RTH mid and vwap.
Percent Difference Between VWAP and Price MTFShows the difference between vwap and price in percent.
You can can choose between multiple timeframe vwap. Default is normal daily.
The levels on the indicator can be changed to whatever you want to.
In the chart above we can see eurusd reverting up at 3% below monthly vwap, after the brexit dip, It then turns down again at 1% from monthly and lastly it turns up again at 2% from monthly.
Script is a small modification of this:
VWAP Session and NY CashAuto Anchored VWAPs with Label options
Session starts at 1800 EST
Cash Open or NY Session starts 0930 EST
Nic's Anchored VWAP 4Poor mans anchored vwap. Allows you to identified the volume weighted average price from 4 specific points in time.
Best used on key pivot point high's and lows'
Difference % between PRICE and VWAP V2Shows difference between price and daily/weekly/monthly/hourly/whatever VWAP.
In v2:
option to color bars
average percentual difference of custom period
histogram changes color depending on which levels it's at
Levels/period/color etc can be customized.
Use these inputs in the timeframe box:
M - month
W - week
D - day
2D (or 3W or 2M or whatever) = 2 Days (or three week or 2 months and so on)
60= 1 H
240= 4 H
5 = 5 min
and so on.
btw, vaguely remembering reading somewhere that the big players like to make their entry at 4% difference.
VWAP Periodic Close [LuxAlgo]The VWAP Periodic Close script offers an advanced tool for analyzing the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) across various timeframes.
This tool enables traders to visualize VWAP close levels for daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly periods, offering a comprehensive view of price behavior across different time frames. It helps in identifying key levels where the VWAP closes at the end of each specified period.

VWAP Momentum Oscillator How It Works
Core Calculation Method
The oscillator combines four key market measurements into a single, normalized reading:
1. Price-VWAP Deviation: `(Close - VWAP) / VWAP × 100`
2. VWAP-MA Momentum: `(VWAP - MovingAverage) / MovingAverage × 100`
3. Anchored VWAP Strength: Average of high/low anchor deviations from rolling VWAP
4. Range Position: `(Close - PeriodLow) / (PeriodHigh - PeriodLow) × 100 - 50`
Dynamic Signal Line
The signal line uses an EMA that automatically adjusts its length based on your chart timeframe:
- Futures: Always covers 23 hours of trading (1,380 minutes)
- Stocks: Always covers 6.5 hours of trading (390 minutes)
- Examples: 276 periods on 5-min futures chart, 1,380 periods on 1-min futures chart
Trading Signals
🟢 Buy Signals
- Condition: Main oscillator crosses above signal line while below zero
- Logic: Momentum turning bullish from oversold conditions
- Visual: Green "BUY" label below price action
🔴 Sell Signals
- Condition: Main oscillator crosses below signal line while above zero
- Logic: Momentum turning bearish from overbought conditions
- Visual: Red "SELL" label above price action
⚠️ Extreme Warnings

Version History & Development
This oscillator evolved from advanced VWAP overlay strategies, transforming complex multi-line analysis into a single, actionable momentum gauge. The indicator maintains the sophistication of institutional VWAP analysis while providing the clarity needed for retail trading decisions.
Core Philosophy
Traditional VWAP indicators show where price is relative to volume-weighted averages, but they don't quantify momentum or provide clear entry/exit signals. This oscillator solves that problem by normalizing all VWAP relationships into a single, bounded indicator that works consistently across all timeframes and asset classes.

Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP STRAT (Zeiierman/PineIndicators)Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP STRATEGY — Zeiierman × PineIndicators (Pine Script v6)
A pivot-to-pivot Anchored VWAP strategy that adapts to volatility, enters long on bullish structure, and closes on bearish structure. Built for TradingView in Pine Script v6.
Full credits to zeiierman.
Repainting notice: The original indicator logic is repainting. Swing labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) are finalized after enough bars have printed, so labels do not occur in real time. It is not possible to execute at historical label points. Treat results as educational and validate with Bar Replay and paper trading before considering any discretionary use.
Concept
The script identifies swing highs/lows over a user-defined lookback ( Swing Period ). When structure flips (most recent swing low is newer than the most recent swing high, or vice versa), a new regime begins.
At each confirmed pivot, a fresh Anchored VWAP segment is started and updated bar-by-bar using an EWMA-style decay on price×volume and volume.
Responsiveness is controlled by Adaptive Price Tracking (APT) . Optionally, APT auto-adjusts with an ATR ratio so that high volatility accelerates responsiveness and low volatility smooths it.
Longs are opened/held in bullish regimes and closed when the regime turns bearish. No short positions are taken by design.
How it works (under the hood)
Swing detection: Uses ta.highestbars / ta.lowestbars over prd to update swing highs (ph) and lows (pl), plus their bar indices (phL, plL).
Regime logic: If phL > plL → bullish regime; else → bearish regime. A change in this condition triggers a re-anchor of the VWAP at the newest pivot.
Adaptive VWAP math: APT is converted to an exponential decay factor ( alphaFromAPT ), then applied to running sums of price×volume and volume, producing the current VWAP estimate.
Rendering: Each pivot-anchored VWAP segment is drawn as a polyline and color-coded by regime. Optional structure labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) annotate the swing character.
Orders: On bullish flips, strategy.entry("L") opens/maintains a long; on bearish flips, strategy.close("L") exits.
Inputs & controls
Swing Period (prd) — Higher values identify larger, slower swings; lower values catch more frequent pivots but add noise.
Adaptive Price Tracking (APT) — Governs the VWAP’s “half-life.” Smaller APT → faster/closer to price; larger APT → smoother/stabler.
Adapt APT by ATR ratio — When enabled, APT scales with volatility so the VWAP speeds up in turbulent markets and slows down in quiet markets.
Volatility Bias — Tunes the strength of APT’s response to volatility (above 1 = stronger effect; below 1 = milder).
Style settings — Colors for swing labels and VWAP segments, plus line width for visibility.
Trade logic summary
Entry: Long when the swing structure turns bullish (latest swing low is more recent than the last swing high).
Exit: Close the long when structure turns bearish.
Position size: qty = strategy.equity / close × 5 (dynamic sizing; scales with account equity and instrument price). Consider reducing the multiplier for a more conservative profile.
Recommended workflow
Apply to instruments with reliable volume (equities, futures, crypto; FX tick volume can work but varies by broker).
Start on your preferred timeframe. Intraday often benefits from smaller APT (more reactive); higher timeframes may prefer larger APT (smoother).
Begin with defaults ( prd=50, APT=20 ); then toggle “Adapt by ATR” and vary Volatility Bias to observe how segments tighten/loosen.
Use Bar Replay to watch how pivots confirm and how the strategy re-anchors VWAP at those confirmations.
Layer your own risk rules (stops/targets, max position cap, session filters) before any discretionary use.
Practical tips
Context filter: Consider combining with a higher-timeframe bias (e.g., daily trend) and using this strategy as an entry timing layer.
First pivot preference: Some traders prefer only the first bullish pivot after a bearish regime (and vice versa) to reduce whipsaw in choppy ranges.
Deviations: You can add VWAP deviation bands to pre-plan partial exits or re-entries on mean-reversion pulls.
Sessions: Session-based filters (RTH vs. ETH) can materially change behavior on futures and equities.
Extending the script (ideas)
Add stops/targets (e.g., ATR stop below last swing low; partial profits at k×VWAP deviation).
Introduce mirrored short logic for two-sided testing.
Include alert conditions for regime flips or for price-VWAP interactions.
Incorporate HTF confirmation (e.g., only long when daily VWAP slope ≥ 0).
Throttle entries (e.g., once per regime flip) to avoid over-trading in ranges.
Known limitations
Repainting: Swing labels and pivot confirmations depend on future bars; historical labels can look “perfect.” Treat them as annotations, not executable signals.
Execution realism: Strategy includes commission and slippage fields, yet actual fills differ by venue/liquidity.
No guarantees: Past behavior does not imply future results. This publication is for research/education only and not financial advice.
Defaults (backtest environment)
Initial capital: 10,000
Commission value: 0.01
Slippage: 1
Overlay: true
Max bars back: 5000; Max labels/polylines set for deep swing histories
Quick checklist
Add to chart and verify that the instrument has volume.
Use defaults, then tune APT and Volatility Bias with/without ATR adaptation.
Observe how each pivot re-anchors VWAP and how regime flips drive entries/exits.
Paper trade across several symbols/timeframes before any discretionary decisions.

JS-TechTrading: VWAP Momentum_Pullback StrategyGeneral Description and Unique Features of this Script
Introducing the VWAP Momentum-Pullback Strategy (long-only) that offers several unique features:
1. Our script/strategy utilizes Mark Minervini's Trend-Template as a qualifier for identifying stocks and other financial securities in confirmed uptrends.
NOTE: In this basic version of the script, the Trend-Template has to be used as a separate indicator on TradingView (Public Trend-Template indicators are available on TradingView – community scripts). It is recommended to only execute buy signals in case the stock or financial security is in a stage 2 uptrend, which means that the criteria of the trend-template are fulfilled.
2. Our strategy is based on the supply/demand balance in the market, making it timeless and effective across all timeframes. Whether you are day trading using 1- or 5-min charts or swing-trading using daily charts, this strategy can be applied and works very well.
3. We have also integrated technical indicators such as the RSI and the MA / VWAP crossover into this strategy to identify low-risk pullback entries in the context of confirmed uptrends. By doing so, the risk profile of this strategy and drawdowns are being reduced to an absolute minimum.
Minervini’s Trend-Template and the ‘Stage-Analysis’ of the Markets
This strategy is a so-called 'long-only' strategy. This means that we only take long positions, short positions are not considered.
The best market environment for such strategies are periods of stable upward trends in the so-called stage 2 - uptrend.
In stable upward trends, we increase our market exposure and risk.
In sideways markets and downward trends or bear markets, we reduce our exposure very quickly or go 100% to cash and wait for the markets to recover and improve. This allows us to avoid major losses and drawdowns.
This simple rule gives us a significant advantage over most undisciplined traders and amateurs!
'The Trend is your Friend'. This is a very old but true quote.
What's behind it???
• 98% of stocks made their biggest gains in a Phase 2 upward trend.
• If a stock is in a stable uptrend, this is evidence that larger institutions are buying the stock sustainably.
• By focusing on stocks that are in a stable uptrend, the chances of profit are significantly increased.
• In a stable uptrend, investors know exactly what to expect from further price developments. This makes it possible to locate low-risk entry points.
The goal is not to buy at the lowest price – the goal is to buy at the right price!
Each stock goes through the same maturity cycle – it starts at stage 1 and ends at stage 4
Stage 1 – Neglect Phase – Consolidation
Stage 2 – Progressive Phase – Accumulation
Stage 3 – Topping Phase – Distribution
Stage 4 – Downtrend – Capitulation
This strategy focuses on identifying stocks in confirmed stage 2 uptrends. This in itself gives us an advantage over long-term investors and less professional traders.
By focusing on stocks in a stage 2 uptrend, we avoid losses in downtrends (stage 4) or less profitable consolidation phases (stages 1 and 3). We are fully invested and put our money to work for us, and we are fully invested when stocks are in their stage 2 uptrends.
But how can we use technical chart analysis to find stocks that are in a stable stage 2 uptrend?
Mark Minervini has developed the so-called 'trend template' for this purpose. This is an essential part of our JS-TechTrading pullback strategy. For our watchlists, only those individual values that meet the tough requirements of Minervini's trend template are eligible.
The Trend Template
• 200d MA increasing over a period of at least 1 month, better 4-5 months or longer
• 150d MA above 200d MA
• 50d MA above 150d MA and 200d MA
• Course above 50d MA, 150d MA and 200d MA
• Ideally, the 50d MA is increasing over at least 1 month
• Price at least 25% above the 52w low
• Price within 25% of 52w high
• High relative strength according to IBD.
NOTE: In this basic version of the script, the Trend-Template has to be used as a separate indicator on TradingView (Public Trend-Template indicators are available in TradingView – community scripts). It is recommended to only execute buy signals in case the stock or financial security is in a stage 2 uptrend, which means that the criteria of the trend-template are fulfilled.
This strategy can be applied to all timeframes from 5 min to daily.
The VWAP Momentum-Pullback Strateg y
For the JS-TechTrading VWAP Momentum-Pullback Strategy, only stocks and other financial instruments that meet the selected criteria of Mark Minervini's trend template are recommended for algorithmic trading with this startegy.
A further prerequisite for generating a buy signals is that the individual value is in a short-term oversold state (RSI).
When the selling pressure is over and the continuation of the uptrend can be confirmed by the MA / VWAP crossover after reaching a price low, a buy signal is issued by this strategy.
Stop-loss limits and profit targets can be set variably.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a technical indicator developed by Welles Wilder in 1978. The RSI is used to perform a market value analysis and identify the strength of a trend as well as overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator is calculated on a scale from 0 to 100 and shows how much an asset has risen or fallen relative to its own price in recent periods.
The RSI is calculated as the ratio of average profits to average losses over a certain period of time. A high value of the RSI indicates an overbought situation, while a low value indicates an oversold situation. Typically, a value > 70 is considered an overbought threshold and a value < 30 is considered an oversold threshold. A value above 70 signals that a single value may be overvalued and a decrease in price is likely , while a value below 30 signals that a single value may be undervalued and an increase in price is likely.
For example, let's say you're watching a stock XYZ. After a prolonged falling movement, the RSI value of this stock has fallen to 26. This means that the stock is oversold and that it is time for a potential recovery. Therefore, a trader might decide to buy this stock in the hope that it will rise again soon.
The MA / VWAP Crossover Trading Strategy
This strategy combines two popular technical indicators: the Moving Average (MA) and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). The MA VWAP crossover strategy is used to identify potential trend reversals and entry/exit points in the market.
The VWAP is calculated by taking the average price of an asset for a given period, weighted by the volume traded at each price level. The MA, on the other hand, is calculated by taking the average price of an asset over a specified number of periods. When the MA crosses above the VWAP, it suggests that buying pressure is increasing, and it may be a good time to enter a long position. When the MA crosses below the VWAP, it suggests that selling pressure is increasing, and it may be a good time to exit a long position or enter a short position.
Traders typically use the MA VWAP crossover strategy in conjunction with other technical indicators and fundamental analysis to make more informed trading decisions. As with any trading strategy, it is important to carefully consider the risks and potential rewards before making any trades.
This strategy is applicable to all timeframes and the relevant parameters for the underlying indicators (RSI and MA/VWAP) can be adjusted and optimized as needed.
Backtesting
Backtesting gives outstanding results on all timeframes and drawdowns can be reduced to a minimum level. In this example, the hourly chart for MCFT has been used.
Settings for backtesting are:
- Period from April 2020 until April 2021 (1 yr)
- Starting capital 100k USD
- Position size = 25% of equity
- 0.01% commission = USD 2.50.- per Trade
- Slippage = 2 ticks
Other comments
• This strategy has been designed to identify the most promising, highest probability entries and trades for each stock or other financial security.
• The RSI qualifier is highly selective and filters out the most promising swing-trading entries. As a result, you will normally only find a low number of trades for each stock or other financial security per year in case you apply this strategy for the daily charts. Shorter timeframes will result in a higher number of trades / year.
• As a result, traders need to apply this strategy for a full watchlist rather than just one financial security.
Distance from Vwap// How it Works \\
Measuring the distance of the close price from a higher timeframe VWAP - Volume Weighted Average Price
There is a threshold which is calculated by looking back at the previous x amount of bars and storing the highest/lowest values
If the distance from the vwap stretches above that threshold, the histogram will go green if price is above VWAP and red if its below the vwap
If the distance from the vwap reaches below the low threshold you will see the histogram flashes orange
// Settings \\
In the settings you have the ability to change what timeframe the indicator is calculated on, as well as this you can change the timeframe the VWAP is calculated on.
I always recommend using a higher timeframe vwap as they tend to me more respected
e.g on the hourly timeframe, I use the weekly VWAP, on 1 minute timeframe you may want to use 4 hour timeframe but obviously feel free to experiment
// Use Case \\
When histogram is flashing green, prices is pulling far away from the vwap, obviously you don't want to be buying a falling knife but if you have levels of confluence this can help spot reversals.
I personally wait until the first candle after its been green to get confirmation of the fall weakening. Vica versa for reds and shorts/sells.
When you see orange flashes, this shows that price has been consolidating and the price is very close to the higher time frame VWAP which could be considered a safe entry point as they tend to lead to a big move to follow
// Suggestions \\
Happy for anyone to make any suggestions on changes which could improve the script,
// Terms \\
Feel free to use the script, If you do use the script could you please just tag me as I am interested to see how people are using it. Good Luck!
VWAP Direction HistogramThe ** VWAP Direction Histogram ** indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to gauge the directional bias of the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). VWAP is a critical metric that combines price and volume to provide a weighted average price, often used to identify institutional trading activity and support/resistance levels. This indicator builds upon the traditional VWAP by calculating its directional changes over a customizable lookback period, providing clear visual cues to traders through a color-coded histogram.
By identifying whether VWAP is rising or falling over the specified lookback period, this indicator helps traders determine the prevailing trend bias in the market. A positive VWAP direction suggests upward momentum and a bullish trend bias, while a negative direction indicates downward momentum and bearish sentiment. This information is further reinforced by coloring the chart candles based on the VWAP trend, enabling quick visual analysis and enhancing decision-making for trend-following strategies. Whether you're trading intraday or longer-term, the ** VWAP Direction Histogram ** offers an intuitive and effective way to align your trades with market trends.
NSDT Horizontal VWAPThis script plots VWAP as a horizontal line starting at the most recent candle and extending backwards for a period of 10 to make it easier to see. (default is 10 but can be changed to fit your needs)
You may only want to see where VWAP is currently and not need to see the entire day. Helps keep the chart clean.
Colors and line settings can all be modified.
You can show the original VWAP plot as well for reference.
What Is the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP)?
The volume-weighted average price (VWAP) is a technical analysis indicator used on intraday charts that resets at the start of every new trading session.
It's a trading benchmark that represents the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price.
VWAP is important because it provides traders with pricing insight into both the trend and value of a security.
VWAP Multiple [Huntersull]This is a VWAP/Price multiple analysis, in the same vein as something like the Mayer multiple.
It finds the VWAP of price and volume starting at the bar you choose when initiating the script (You can also drag the starting point line on the chart to change it later), and calculates the running VWAP total for every following bar until the current bar.
It then takes the hlc3 of price for each bar and divides it by the VWAP value of that bar, giving a multiple over VWAP price.
This is then charted with your choice of an SMA, EMA, or WMA using VWAP as the source, and a default length of 200, which is also modifiable.
When VWAP is over the moving average, it is filled green. When VWAP is below the moving average, it is filled red.
--------------------------------------------
This is not meant to be a trading indicator, but a tool for general bull/bear market and trend analysis. Use at your own risk.
Multiple Anchored VWAP [Morty]The Anchored VWAP (aVWAP) indicator ties VWAP calculations to a specific price bar chosen by the trader. Anchored VWAP allows you to specify the price bar where calculations begin, making it easy to see whether the bulls or bears have been in charge since a very specific point in time. The starting price bar that is chosen generally marks a shift in market psychology, such as a significant high or low, earnings, news, or other announcements. The Anchored VWAP line is charted using price and volume data from that significant event onward.
This indicator plots up to 4 aVWAP lines in the chart.
Features:
- plot up to 4 aVWAP lines
- custom start date of aVWAP
- custom line color
- optional label of starting price bar
- optional custom resolution

[VJ] Viper VWAP IntradayHello Traders, this is a simple intraday strategy involving the ever reliable VWAP and a chop index to add twist to the traditional style . You can modify the values on the stock and see what are your best picks. Comment below if you found something with good returns
Strategy: VWAP based strategy but uses an additional powerful indicator Chop index to help us stay out of false trades.
Indicators used :
VWAP identifies the true average price of a stock by factoring the volume of transactions at a specific price point and not based on the closing price. VWAP can add more value than your standard 10, 50, or 200 moving average indicators because VWAP reacts to price movements based on the volume during a given period.
The Choppiness Index is designed to determine whether the market is choppy or trading sideways, or not choppy and trading within a trend in either direction. Using a scale from 1 - 100, the market is considered to be choppy as values near 100 (over 61.80) and trending when values are lower than 38.20)
Buying/Selling typically happens at VWAP Breakouts which is then validated with extreme CI to ascertain the entries
Aggressive trade stop can be employed by using the % for long and shorts in the strategy.
Usage & Best setting :
Choose a good volatile stock and a time frame - 10m.
CI Index : 14
Trend Factor - anything below 38.2 is considered in trend, you can experiment from 50
There is stop loss and take profit that can be used to optimise your trade
The template also includes daily square off based on your time.
Custom Timeframe VWAPThis script calculates the daily VWAP from any specified starting point intraday. Also colors the VWAP based on whether price is above or below it.
Standard vwap starts at day open 0 GMT, however there are some exchanges for eg. Deribit that have seen they use a different time period to begin VWAP calculations. This is useful in such cases.
You need to specify the hours & minutes of the VWAP that want to use. VWAP will be hidden on any timeframe higher than specified "Highest Visible Timeframe".
Also a big thanks to u/mortdiggiddy as he helped with this script.
Multi-Day VWAP
Chart the multi-day Volume Weighted Average Price ( VWAP ). Normally, the VWAP is tracked for the current day, from the first bar of the day (regular or extended session). The VWAP shows the current value of:
-> sum(hlc3 * volume , barsForDay) / sum( volume , barsForDay),
-> where 'barsForDay' is the total number bars that have elapsed during the day for the chart interval.
The multi-day version tracks the VWAP for N days back, by averaging the previous N - 1 day bars VWAP and the current VWAP for the current bar (chart interval).
This is very different that simply using a volume weighted moving average , since the closing VWAP values are used for the historical day bars. The results are interesting for intraday trades... especially for values of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days.
Enjoy.
Red Pill VWAP/RSI DivergenceI created this indicator to identify moments in time VWAP and RSI are diverging.
Ideally useful in strong trend, bullish or bearish, as a potential entry point on a pull back for continuation. Not to be used as a stand alone signal, but rather in conjunction with any possible trend/momentum strategy.
VWAP is identified as the blue line. Green label(blue pill) is your potential entry on a pull back when price is above, stacked EMAS & VWAP for a long position. Red label(red pill) is your potential entry on a pull back when price is below inversely stacked EMAS & VWAP for a short position. These are the 2 ideal scenarios I have found. Please back test for yourself
I have had great results but must emphasis this is not a stand alone buy/sell. I use it in confluence to add conviction to my current A+ setups.
***Pivot ribbon in chart created by Saty Mahajan set to 3/10 time warp works ideal in conjunction.
***please note false positive and false negative signals can occur, particularly in chop
I hope you find this helpful . TRADE SAFE!
Kalman Based VWAP [EdgeTerminal]Kalman VWAP is a different take on volume-weighted average price (VWAP) indicator where we enhance the results with Kalman filtering and dynamic wave visualization for a more smooth and improved trend identification and volatility analysis.
A little bit about Kalman Filter:
Kalman filtering (also known as linear quadratic estimation) is an algorithm that uses a series of measurements observed over time, including statistical noise and other inaccuracies, to produce estimates of unknown variables that tend to be more accurate than those based on a single measurement, by estimating a joint probability distribution over the variables for each time-step. The filter is constructed as a mean squared error minimiser, but an alternative derivation of the filter is also provided showing how the filter relates to maximum likelihood statistics
This indicator combines:
Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) for institutional price levels
Kalman filtering for noise reduction and trend smoothing
Dynamic wave visualization for volatility zones
This creates a robust indicator that helps traders identify trends, support/resistance zones, and potential reversal points with high precision.
What makes this even more special is the fact that we use open price as a data source instead of usual close price. This allows you to tune the indicator more accurately when back testing it and generally get results that are closer to real time market data.
The math:
In case if you're interested in the math of this indicator, the indicator employs a state-space Kalman filter model:
State Equation: x_t = x_{t-1} + w_t
Measurement Equation: z_t = x_t + v_t
x_t is the filtered VWAP state
w_t is process noise ~ N(0, Q)
v_t is measurement noise ~ N(0, R)
z_t is the traditional VWAP measurement
The Kalman filter recursively updates through:
Prediction: x̂_t|t-1 = x̂_{t-1}
Update: x̂_t = x̂_t|t-1 + K_t(z_t - x̂_t|t-1)
Where K_t is the Kalman gain, optimally balancing between prediction and measurement.
Input Parameters
Measurement Noise: Controls signal smoothing (0.0001 to 1.0)
Process Noise: Adjusts trend responsiveness (0.0001 to 1.0)
Wave Size: Multiplier for volatility bands (0.1 to 5.0)
Trend Lookback: Period for trend determination (1 to 100)
Bull/Bear Colors: Customizable color schemes
Application:
I recommend using this along other indicators. This is best used for assets that don't have a close time, such as BTC but can be used with anything as long as the data is there.
With default settings, this works better for swing trades but you can adjust it for day trading as well, by adjusting the lookback and also process noise.
