ZenAlgo - LevelsThis script combines multiple anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) calculations into a single tool, providing a continuous record of past VWAP levels and highlighting when price has tested them. Typically, VWAP indicators show only the current VWAP for a single anchor period, requiring you to either keep re-anchoring manually or juggle multiple instances of different VWAP tools for each timeframe. By contrast, this script automatically tracks both the ongoing VWAP and previously completed VWAP values, along with real-time detection of “tests” (when price crosses a particular VWAP level). It’s especially valuable for traders who want to see how price has interacted with VWAP over several sessions, weeks, or months—without switching between separate indicators or manually setting anchors.
Below is a comprehensive explanation of each component, why multiple VWAP lines working together can be more informative than a single line, and how to adjust the script for various markets and trading styles:
Primary VWAP vs. Historical VWAP Lines - Standard VWAP indicators typically focus on the current line only. This script also calculates a primary VWAP, but it “locks in” each completed VWAP value when a new time anchor is detected (e.g., new weekly bar, new monthly bar, new session). As a result, you retain an ongoing history of VWAP lines for every completed anchored period. This is more powerful than manually setting up multiple VWAP tools—one for each desired timeframe—because everything is handled in a single script. You avoid chart clutter and the risk of forgetting to reset your manual VWAP at the correct bar.
Why Combine Multiple Anchored VWAP Lines in One Script? - Viewing several anchored VWAP lines together offers synergy . You see not only the current VWAP but also previous ones from different sessions or months, all within the same chart pane. This synergy becomes apparent if multiple historical VWAP lines cluster near the same price level, indicating a potentially significant zone of volume-based support or resistance. Handling this manually would involve repeatedly setting separate VWAP indicators, each reset at specific points, which is time-consuming and prone to error. In this script, the process is automated: as soon as the anchor changes, a completed VWAP line is stored so you can observe how price eventually reacts to it, repeatedly or not at all.
Automated “Test” Detection - Once a historical VWAP line is set, the script tracks when price crosses it in subsequent bars. If the high and low of a bar span that line, the script marks it in red (both the line and its label). It also keeps a counter of how many times each line has been tested. This method goes beyond a simple visual approach by quantifying the retests. Because all these lines are created and managed in one place, you don’t have to manually label the lines or check them one by one.
Advantages Over Manually Setting Multiple VWAPs
You save screen space: Instead of layering several VWAP indicators, each with unique settings, this single script plots them all on one overlay.
Automation: When a new anchor period begins, the script “closes out” the old VWAP and starts a new one. You never need to remember to reset it manually.
Retest Visualization: The script not only draws each line but also changes color and updates the label automatically if a line gets tested. Doing this by hand would be labor-intensive.
Unified Parameters: All settings (e.g., array size, max distance, test count limit) apply uniformly. You can manage them from one place, instead of configuring multiple separate tools.
Extended Insight with Multiple VWAP Lines
Since VWAP reflects the volume-weighted average price for each chosen period, historical lines can show zones where the market had a fair-value consensus in previous intervals. When the script preserves these lines, you see potential support/resistance areas more distinctly. If, for instance, price continually pivots around an old VWAP line, that may reveal a strong volume-based level. With several older VWAP lines on the chart, you gain an immediate sense of where these volume-derived averages have appeared and how price reacted over time. This wider perspective often proves more revealing than a single “current” VWAP line that does not reflect previous anchor sessions.
Handling of Illiquid Markets and Volume Limitations
VWAP is inherently tied to volume data, so its reliability decreases if volume reporting is missing or if the asset trades with very low liquidity. In such cases, a single large trade might momentarily skew the VWAP, resulting in “false” test signals when the high/low range intersects an abnormal price swing. If you suspect the data is incomplete or the market is unusually thin, it’s wise to confirm the validity of these VWAP lines before using them for any decision-making. Additionally, unusual market conditions—like after-hours trading or sudden high-volatility events—may cause VWAP to shift quickly, setting up multiple lines in a short time.
Key User-Configurable Settings
Hide VWAP on Day timeframe and above : Lets you disable the primary VWAP plot on daily or higher timeframes for a cleaner view.
Anchor Period : Select from Session, Week, Month, Quarter, Year, Decade or Century. Controls how frequently the script resets and preserves the VWAP line.
Offset : Moves the current VWAP line by a specified number of bars if you need a shifted perspective.
Max Array Size : Caps how many past VWAP lines the script will remember. Prevents clutter if you’re charting very long histories.
Max Distance : Defines how far back (in bar index units) a line is kept. If a line’s start bar is older than this threshold, it’s removed, keeping the chart uncluttered.
Max Red Labels : Limits the number of tested (red) VWAP lines that appear. If price tests a large number of old lines, only the newest red labels remain once you hit the set limit.
Workflow Overview
As soon as a new anchor period begins (e.g., a new weekly candle if “Week” is chosen), the script ends the current VWAP and stores that final value in its internal arrays.
It creates a dotted line and label representing the completed VWAP, and keeps track of whether it has been tested or not.
Subsequent bars may then cross that line. If a bar’s high/low includes the line’s value, it’s flagged as tested, labeled red, and a test counter increases.
As new anchored periods come, old lines remain visible—unless they fall outside your maxDistance or you exceed the maximum stored line count.
Real-World Benefits
Combining multiple VWAP lines—ranging, for example, from session-based lines for intraday perspectives to monthly or quarterly lines for broader context—provides a layered view of the volume-based fair price. This can help you quickly spot zones where price repeatedly intersects old VWAPs, potentially highlighting where bulls or bears took action historically. Because this script automates the management of all these lines and flags their retests, it removes a great deal of repetitive manual work that would typically accompany multiple, separate VWAP indicators set to different anchors.
Limitations & Practical Use
As with any volume-related tool, the script depends on reliable volume data. Assets trading on smaller venues or during illiquid periods may produce spurious signals. The script does not signal buy or sell decisions; rather, it helps visually map out where volume-weighted averages from previous periods might still be relevant to market behavior. Always combine the insight from these historical VWAP lines with your existing analytical approach or other technical and fundamental tools you use.
Conclusion
This script unifies past and present VWAP lines into one overlay, automatically detecting new anchor resets, storing the final VWAP values, and indicating whenever old lines are retested by price. It offers synergy through the simultaneous display of multiple historical VWAP lines, making it quicker and easier to detect potential support/resistance zones and better reflect changing market volumes over time. You no longer need to manually create, configure, or reset multiple VWAP indicators. Instead, the script handles all aspects of line creation, retest detection, and clutter management, giving you a robust framework to observe how historical VWAP data aligns with current price action.
By understanding the significance of multiple anchored VWAP lines, you can assess market structure from multiple angles in a single view. As always, ensure you confirm the reliability of the volume data for your particular asset and use these lines in conjunction with other analyses to form a well-rounded perspective on current market behavior.

VWAP Fibonacci Bands (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The VWAP Fibonacci Bands is a sophisticated yet user-friendly indicator designed to assist traders in visualizing market trends, volatility, and potential support/resistance levels. Developed by Zeiierman, this tool integrates the MIDAS (Market Interpretation Data Analysis System) methodology with Standard Deviation Bands and user-defined Fibonacci levels to provide a comprehensive market analysis framework.
This indicator is built for traders who want a dynamic and customizable approach to understanding market movements, offering features that adapt to varying market conditions. Whether you're a scalper, swing trader, or long-term investor.
█ How It Works
⚪ Anchor Point System
The indicator begins its calculations based on an anchor point, which can be set to:
A specific date for historical analysis or alignment with significant market events.
A timeframe-based reset, dynamically restarting calculations at the beginning of each selected period (e.g., daily, weekly, or monthly).
This dual-anchor method ensures flexibility, allowing the indicator to align with various trading strategies.
⚪ MIDAS Calculation
The MIDAS calculation is central to this indicator. It uses cumulative price and volume data to compute a volume-weighted average price (VWAP), offering a trendline that reflects the true value weighted by trading activity.
⚪ Standard Deviation Bands
The upper and lower bands are calculated using the standard deviation of price movements around the MIDAS line.
⚪ Fibonacci Levels
User-defined Fibonacci ratios are used to plot additional support and resistance levels between the bands. These levels provide visual cues for potential price reversals or trend continuations.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Identification
Uptrend: The price remains above the MIDAS line.
Downtrend: The price stays below the MIDAS line and aligns with the lower bands.
⚪ Support and Resistance
The upper and lower bands act as support and resistance levels.
Fibonacci levels provide intermediate zones for potential price reversals.
⚪ Volatility Analysis
Wider bands indicate periods of high volatility.
Narrower bands suggest low-volatility conditions, often preceding breakouts.
⚪ Overbought/Oversold Conditions
Look for the price beyond the upper or lower bands to identify extreme conditions.
█ Settings
Set Anchor Method
Anchor Method: Choose between Timeframe or Date to define the starting point of calculations.
Anchor Timeframe: For Timeframe mode, specify the interval (e.g., Daily, Weekly).
Anchor Date: For Date mode, set the exact starting date for historical alignment.
Set Std Dev Multiplier
Controls the width of the bands:
Higher values widen the bands, filtering out minor fluctuations.
Lower values tighten the bands for more responsive analysis.
Set Fibonacci Levels
Define custom Fibonacci ratios (e.g., 0.236, 0.382) to plot intermediate levels between the bands.
█ Tips for Fine-Tuning
⚪ For Trend Trading:
Use higher Std Dev Multipliers to focus on long-term trends and avoid noise. Adjust Anchor Timeframe to Weekly or Monthly for broader trend analysis.
⚪ For Reversal Trading:
Tighten the bands with a lower Std Dev Multiplier.
Use shorter anchor timeframes for intraday reversals (e.g., Hourly).
⚪ For Volatile Markets:
Increase the Std Dev Multiplier to accommodate wider price swings.
⚪ For Quiet Markets:
Decrease the Std Dev Multiplier to highlight smaller fluctuations.

Consolidation VWAP's [QuantVue]Introducing the Consolidation VWAP's Indicator , a powerful tool designed to identify consolidation periods in stock advance and automatically anchor three distinct VWAPs to key points within the consolidation.
Consolidation Period Identification:
The indicator automatically detects periods of consolidation or areas on the chart where a stock's price moves sideways within a defined range. This period can be seen as the market taking a "breather" as it digests the previous gains. Consolidations are important because they often act as a base for the next move, either continuing the previous uptrend or reversing direction.
Consolidation requirements can be customized by the user to match your instrument and timeframe.

Anchored VWAP, or Anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price, is a technical analysis tool used to determine the average price of a stock weighted by volume, starting from a specific point in time chosen by the analyst.
Unlike traditional VWAP, which starts at the beginning of the trading session, the anchored VWAP allows traders to select any point on the chart, such as a significant event, price low, high, or a breakout, to begin the calculation.
VWAP incorporates price and volume in a weighted average and can be used to identify areas of support and resistance on the chart.
VWAP Anchored to Consolidation High: This VWAP is anchored at the highest price point within the identified consolidation period. It helps traders understand the
average price paid by buyers who entered at the peak of the consolidation.
VWAP Anchored to Consolidation Low: This VWAP is anchored at the lowest price point within the consolidation. It provides insights into the average price paid by
buyers who entered at the lowest point of the consolidation.
VWAP Anchored to Highest Volume in the Consolidation: This VWAP is anchored at the price level with the highest trading volume during the consolidation. It reflects the average price at
which the most trading activity occurred, often indicating a key support or resistance level.
The indicator also allows the trader to see past consolidation areas and previous anchored VWAP's.

VWAP with CharacterizationThis indicator is a visual representation of the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), it calculates the weighted average price based on trading volume. Essentially, it provides a measure of the average price at which an asset has traded during a given period, but with a particular focus on trading volume. In our case, the indicator calculates the VWAP for the current trading symbol, using a predefined simple moving average (SMA) with a period of 14. This volume-weighted moving average offers a clearer view of the behavior of the VWAP and, of consequence of market dynamics.
One of the distinctive features of this indicator is its ability to provide a more "linear" representation of the data. This means that the data is "smoothed" to remove noise, allowing you to more easily identify the direction of the market trend. This smoother representation is especially useful because the financial market can be subject to significant fluctuations and volatility, and this indicator can help get a more stable view of the trend.
The indicator also offers a visualization of the market trend in a very intuitive way. Using an evaluation of the highs and lows of the last 10 days, determine whether the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or no trend at all. To make this evaluation even clearer and more immediate, the indicator line is colored dynamically. When the trend is bullish, the line is blue, while in case of a bearish trend, it takes on a distinctive color, such as pink. If the trend is not defined, the line will be colored differently, for example light yellow. This coloration gives traders an immediate visual indication of the prevailing trend, allowing them to make more informed decisions regarding trading operations.
One potential strategy involves watching candles when they cross the VWAP line strongly. If, for example, a candlestick breaks above the VWAP line, we may look for retest areas near key support levels to gauge a potential long entry. In other words, we would consider that the price may have the potential to rise further after breaking above the VWAP line, and we would look to enter a long position to take advantage of this opportunity.
On the other hand, if a candlestick crosses below the VWAP line, we might consider looking for retest areas near the VWAP line itself, which now serves as potential resistance. This could indicate a possible short entry opportunity, as the price may struggle to break above the resistance represented by the VWAP line after breaking it down. In this case, we would look to take advantage of the expected continuation of the downtrend.
In both cases, the idea is to exploit significant movements across the VWAP line as signals of potential reversal or continuation of the trend. This strategy can help identify key entry points based on price behavior relative to the VWAP line.
VWAP angle TrendThe VWAP Angle Trend is an indicator built with the aim of providing valuable insights into the reversal points of the #VWAP using Angle
This is achieved by calculating the angle between the current VWAP and its previous value over a customizable lookback period and normalizing it with ATR
By analyzing the angle, we can gain an understanding of the strength and direction of the VWAP, which can help them identify potential trend reversals or continuations.
After observing the market over a lengthy period, I have come to realize that as the angle increases above 65 or decreases under -65 , it confirms a higher likelihood of a trend reversal.
the indicator highlights these zones where a trend reversal is more likely to occur.
The indicator can help you to assess the strength and direction of VWAP, enabling you to make more informed trading decisions.
By identifying periods of strong momentum or potential exhaustion, you can seek opportunities for entering or exiting positions, and potentially capitalize on trend movements in the market.
RD Key Levels (Weekly, Daily, Previous vWAP)The RexDog Key Levels indicator plots the weekly open, daily open, and the previous day vWAP close.
These are all critical price levels (zones) to know when trading any market or instrument. These areas are also high probability reaction areas that you can trade using simple confirmation trading patterns.
First, I'll cover an overview of the indicator then I'll share general usage tips.
Weekly Open - default is white/orange. White is when price is above the weekly open. Orange is when price is below the weekly open.
Weekly High/Low - there are options to turn on the weekly high and lows. Default plot is circles. Green is the high. Red is the low.
Daily Open - default is green/red. Green is when price is above the daily open. Red is when price is below the daily open.
Previous vWAPs - aqua single lines. These are the closing price of the daily vWAPs.
Top Indicators - The triangles at the top of the chart signify is price is currently above or below the weekly open. This is helpful on lower timeframe charts (5m, 15m) to get a quick indication when price is far extended beyond the weekly open. Green triangle = above weekly open. Red triangle = below weekly open.
General Usage
Each one of these levels are important levels markets look use for continuation or failure of momentum and bias. I also find it extremely helpful to think of these levels as magnets, dual magnets. They both attract and repel price at the same time. Now you might say, how is that helpful to have opposing views at the same time? Be indifferent to direction, create your own rules on when these price zones repel or attract price, I have my own.
Here's the easiest way to use these price levels.
As price approaches one of these levels to expect a reaction. A reaction is price is going in one direction and price hits a price level zone and reacts in the opposite direction.
These are price zones, sometimes you will see a reaction right at the price but visualize these areas as zones of reaction.
A high percentage of the time when price approaches these level zones there will be a reaction. So trade the reaction .
How do you do that?
Simple. Trade patterns that repeat. I have 3 solid patterns I trade around these key levels:
The first pattern is early entry with precise scale in rules and a very effective protective stop loss placement.
The second pattern is wait for confirmation that the level holds. This requires more patience and for you to fully trust the chart. The benefit of this pattern is with confirmation you have even more precise stop placement.
There is a bonus third pattern I trade around these levels. I call this the confirmation and bluff entry. It's a combination of both of the patterns above. You wait for confirmation but on any pull back you call the bluff on the market and enter on key test. Trade management here is critical. In addition to the pattern you trade you should have a series of failure patterns that tell you to get out of the trade, I use 2 primary failure patterns.
I trade all markets, same system, same rules, so I'll show a few examples.
Usually I start with Bitcoin but let's start with equities:
BA - Boeing - 8 Trades
Here we see weekly low patterns, previous week low test, vwAP hold patterns, day magnets and day holding. Then 2 week failures and a double hold pattern.
These are all straightforward trades to execute following really simple patterns.
BTCUSD Previous vWAP and Day Open Trades
We see here on the circle areas both daily open and previous day vWAP zone tests. Within this chart are all 3 highly effective patterns I trade.
SPY - 7 High Probability Trades
Here we see a pDay vWAP mixed with a daily failure. Next a daily retest, then a pDay vWAP failure, then a vWAP capture and test. Then a double weekly failure test (great trade there) and finally a daily test.
I could provide more examples but most are just derivatives of the above examples.

Bogdan Ciocoiu - Sniper EntryWhat is Sniper Entry
Sniper Entry is a set indicator that encapsulates a collection of pre-configured scripts using specific variables that enable users to extract signals by interpreting market behaviour quickly, suitable for 1-3min scalping. This instrument is a tool that acts as a confluence for traders to make decisions concerning current market conditions. This indicator does not apply solely to an asset.
What Sniper Entry is not
Sniper Entry is not interpreting fundamental analysis and will also not be providing out of box market signals. Instead, it will provide a collection of integrated and significantly improved open-source subscripts designed to help traders speculate on market trends. Traders must apply their strategies and configure Sniper Entry accordingly to maximise the script's output.
Originality and usefulness
The collection of subscripts encapsulated in this tool makes it unique in the Trading View ecosystem. This indicator enables traders to consider entry positions or exit positions by comparing similar algorithms at once.
Its usefulness also emerges from the unique configurations embedded in the indicator's settings, which are different from those of the original scripts.
This indicator's originality is also reflected in how its modules are integrated, including the integration of the settings.
Open-source reuse
I used the following open-source resources, which I simplified significantly and pre-configured for short term scalping. The source codes for the below are already in the public domain, including the following links listed below.

VWAP From Multiple Sources With Cloud & Percentage GapVWAP CLOUD FROM CLOSE, OPEN, HIGH & LOW SOURCES WITH CLOUD & PERCENTAGE GAP
VWAP stands for volume weighted average price and shows the average price of buys/sells based on volume traded across the current session. This VWAP is based off of the Daily session.
***HOW TO USE***
Use the purple cloud between the VWAPs as your entry points as price will typically bounce from that cloud area.
The Yellow Line is the VWAP using the close price as a source.
The Green Line is the VWAP using the open price as a source.
The Blue Line is the VWAP using the high price as a source.
The Purple Line is the VWAP using the low price as a source.
When price is above the VWAP cloud, the background will paint green because the trend is bullish.
When price is below the VWAP cloud, the background will paint red because the trend is bearish.
In the bottom right hand corner, three is a table that will show you the current percentage gap between current price and the VWAP using close as the source.
All sources and colors can be easily switched in the settings menu.
***MARKETS***
This indicator can be used as a signal on all markets, including stocks, crypto, futures and forex.
***TIMEFRAMES***
This vwap indicator can be used on all timeframes but is calculated using the daily session.
***TIPS***
Try using numerous indicators of ours on your chart so you can instantly see the bullish or bearish trend of multiple indicators in real time without having to analyze the data. Some of our favorites are our Auto Fibonacci, Volume Profile, Directional Movement Index, Momentum, Auto Support And Resistance and Money Flow Index in combination with this VWAP Cloud. The other indicators all have real time Bullish and Bearish labels as well so you can immediately understand each indicator's trend.
Multi Day vWAP (Customizable) with AverageIntroducing the Multi-Day vWAP indicator that is fully customizable with average indicator option.
High level overview (default settings):
Default is 10 plots with each setting 1 day apart (1-10 day look back)
Labels for each plot are turned on by default (labels will default to your value, more below)
Use Style tab in options to change colors, plot style, and turn on/off individual plots
Average is turned off by default (style panel will show it's on-- go to Inputs panel and select "Show vWAP Average" to turn on)
Best use case is go to Visibility Panel in options and turn off for Days, Weeks, and Months
To turn off all labels at once go to Style tab and unselect "Labels" checkbox
If you want plots to be as small as possible in Inputs panel set the Plot Width to 0 (zero)
Detail Overview
This indicator will plot your custom daily vWAP values.
You can change the lookback period. If you change the lookback period the label will match your custom value.
For instance, if you change vWAP 1 value to "5", the label for this plot will be 5.
Average Notes:
The average will average all the vWAP values by the divisor. The default is to average all values by 10.
The average will always start to plot from the shortest lookback period. It is not possible to have the average plot before that point.
Trading Tips (default settings)
The simple way to use the vWAP is to treat them as magnets.
For intance,
Generally if price is trading below all the vWAP plots the chart is in a momentum short enviroment. All vWAP areas can be used for upside resistance/reaction areas.
If price is trading above the chart is in a momentum long enviroment and pullbacks can to vWAP levels can be looked as areas of support/reaction.
For instance:
Price is above the current day vWAP and looking to test the previous day vWAP value.
As it approaches the 2 value you are expecting this area to be a reaction area (good trade entry area) for a continuation short trade. Possibly to check back into the current day vWAP value.
I should share that this is a simple way to trade with the vWAP (true success with vWAP is understanding that price trades in vWAP channels).
Stacking and Strong Momentum
The other pattern you should look for is stacking.
For instance on this CL chart:
This chart is strong momentum long.
All 10 day vWAP plots are stacked on top of each other.
Previous action tested below all vWAPs. Price traded thru and came back and retested. Finally closing above all and above the vWAP avearge (red).
When the day vWAP was broke the next target you look for is the 2 vWAP. This reaction area held up and momentum long continued and continuing to trade above current day vWAP.
7 Day Rolling Example (Larger Timeframe)
Another great way to use this indicator is to customize the values for rolling 7 days (5 days for cash markets).
To do this set values to: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70
For instance, this BTC chart:
This chart provides a good example of what you'll find when a chart is at a pivot point.
Price is checking in at the average to remain momentum long.
Upside longer term vWAP plots have been tested and had expected reaction.
Price is trading above the shorter term values.
Simple TA here will note if chart continues to trade above and takes out upper vWAPs long momentum is gaining ground.
On the downside if price trades thru the lower vWAP plots you would expect further downside. In this scenario you would be mindful to expect upside tests before (which could be good entry/reaction areas).
NQ example with 7 day values:
Overall chart is momentum short.
7 is above 14, 21
Maybe early sign of bottom.
If price takes out these values and holds above the buyers have quite a few challenges above.
Multi Range VWAP PivotsMulti Range VWAP Pivots turned out to be one of my most accurate pivot indicators to date!
Multi Range VWAP Pivots works by recognizing the high and low of the timeframe selected (D, W, M, 6M, and 12M) and plotting range high to VWAP averages and range low to VWAP averages.
After further examination of each completed range, I came to the conclusion that due to the nature of averages, high and low respectively would need to be completed within the current range, for the averages to actually display pivots correctly. This means that if all averages appear to be "pivoting" correctly after or during a break lower of higher, then we can only assume the most recent break higher or lower could be exhaustion and price will be reverted to the mean (VWAP). OR, this could be the most accurate hindsight indicator on the planet.
*DISCLAIMER*: This indicator repaints. DO NOT backtest or set alerts with this indicator.
VWAP/CloseHey!
This time I'm going to introduce you to an indicator which catches volume spikes and its respect price change, to give an idea of the following price action.
The logic is pretty simple:
Value > 1 : High Volume that changed a lot the price, next price action will follow that trend.
Value < 1 : Low volume that changed a lot the price, trend is weak.
Value = 1 : Volume and price change is balanced, trend would continue based on the previous values.
If you have any doubt just comment!
