VWAP Pressure
Key Features and Utility:
- Intrabar Focus: Unlike standard VWAP, which provides a cumulative average throughout the day, the Intrabar VWAP focuses on volume-weighted price calculations within shorter time frames. This allows traders to see how price and volume interact moment-to-moment, offering a granular view of market sentiment.
- Market Pressure Analysis: The indicator examines the difference between a smoothed weighted average price of the close and intrabar price movements. This analysis helps in identifying the market pressure at high volume areas. When the market exhibits high volume at low prices within a bar, it suggests accumulation, whereas high volume at high prices indicates distribution.
- Momentum and Pressure Shift Signals: By applying a modified MACD calculation to the smoothed difference, the indicator provides signals on shifts in market pressure. Positive values indicate upward price momentum (buying pressure), while negative values suggest downward momentum (selling pressure).
