Quantum VWAP ProThe VWAP indicator is another of our suite of volume indicators and one which was first referred to in 1988 when it appeared in an article entitled “The Total Cost Of Transactions On The NYSE” in the March edition of the Journal Of Finance from that year, which went on to explain its importance, particularly from an institutional perspective, which underpins its significance in appreciating the power and importance of this indicator.
In many ways, it is akin to the volume price analysis methodology itself, as we are merely attempting to follow the footprints in the sand left by their passage and described by volume. The same is true here, but in this case, we are following the institutions in much the same way.
Originally, the VWAP indicator was developed as a benchmark to measure whether an institutional customer received a fair execution of their order by the broker buying and selling on their behalf. The difference between the reported price and the VWAP gave the customer a benchmark against which to judge whether they had received a fair price or not. A portfolio manager for example, wants to know how the price they paid compared to the average price of the stock during the time it took to fill the order. If an order is filled at a worse price than the VWAP, it raises questions as to the ability of the broker. If the broker purchased a million shares at $40.50 and the VWAP during this time was at $40.70, the customer is likely to be happy since they paid 20 cents less than ‘fair value’. Equally, if the stock were purchased above, at, say $40.90 per share, the customer would consider this a poor trade, paying well above the fair value price at the VWAP.
The simplicity of this easy-to-understand benchmark, which creates this fair value price concept, has led to its wholehearted adoption amongst the institutions, and moreover, why algorithmic VWAP orders now dominate institutional market activity. A huge percentage of institutional orders are executed as VWAP orders, which raises two key questions. First of all, why, and second, how can we benefit from using the indicator?
If we start with the why, according to reports from the leading market makers, almost 40% of orders are now executed on this basis as they attempt to obtain a buy or sell price close to or better than the VWAP during the time it takes to complete the buy or sell order. These orders, therefore, help to hugely reinforce the importance of the VWAP since it is the guiding principle on which these orders are based. Even Warren Buffet uses VWAP, as evidenced when he sold his entire position in Southwest Airlines over two days, holding 2.3 million shares.
This highlights the key issues for any large institutional investor involving the price. If executed in a single order, an order to buy a large block of shares would almost certainly swamp the market, raising the price exponentially and, in addition, overwhelm the average volume traded in the day.
It is this issue of putting the price up against their own buying or conversely seeing the price fall as a result of their own selling that leads to the parent and child order scenario where significant block orders are broken into a multitude of smaller orders, which are duly executed over days, weeks or months. It is this aspect of institutional order execution that makes the VWAP such a potent indicator.
However, at Quantum Trading, we don’t just build a single indicator and leave it at that! We always take them to another level, and here we have done the same, bundling together a total of five indicators into one amazing value package so you can select your favorite from those on offer. The reason for this is we recognize the different ways the volume-weighted average price is used, which is why we offer a total of FIVE variants to choose from, and these are as follows:
VWAP – Volume Weighted Average Price
MVWAP – Moving Volume Weighted Average Price
AVWAP – Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price
TWAP – Time Weighted Average Price
Interday Volume Weighted Average Price
All five variants include the option to display upper and lower bands that act as envelopes above and below the VWAP based on standard deviation, which you can adjust and set yourself. These price envelopes become essential dynamic support and resistance levels, which can help predict the extremes of price action as it oscillates around the VWAP from the fastest to the slowest timeframes and everything in between.
All five indicators are packaged into one powerful indicator, which we have named the Quantum VWAP Pro indicator for obvious reasons, and as you would expect, it works in all markets and instruments, whether stocks, futures, ETFs, forex or cryptocurrencies.
Finally, as with all our indicators, we recommend you use it in multiple timeframes.

MVWAP Trend + Bollinger BandsThis script can provide u information for possible Trendchanges and good entry Points as shown and Bollinger Bands based on vwap.
Additional u can choose to plot the 50/200/500 Mvwap (Moving weighted volume average price), as reference.
I personally dont use the simple moving averages on this script.
Most used pattern on my trades:
Price brakes below/above center line, wait for retest middleline or big push into trend direction enter trade with stopp loss below center line.

Vwap and MvwapDay Trading - Made Easy
Vwap (Volume weighted avergae price) is an excellent day trader's tool which comprises of two vital elements ( volume and Price).
and a 50 period vwap based MVWAP provides a baseline for the day trading strategy..
Green bars = price above both vwap and Mvwap.. (for long positions)
Red bars = price below both vwap and Mvwap .. (for short positons)
Gray bars = price in between both vwaps
* One has to apply this strategy along with momentum, major supports and resistances.
* add other confirmations for better trades.
VWAP/MVWAP/SMA CROSSOVERTo use this indicator is simple.
When the VWAP (Thick Yellow) AND the two SMA (Orange and thin Yellow) cross above the MVWAP (Purple) then you will be in a uptrend that could possibly continue upwards. The opposite is true if you are looking a short opportunity, wait for the three other lines to cross under the MVWAP and you should be in a downtrend that could possibly continue downwards
Of course as with all indicators not every signal will be 100% accurate there is no way to predict human emotions when it comes to trading but based on the VWAP strategy used in other markets this is the closest I could get.
Note: Don't relay completely on this indicator to think for you. Use other forms of TA to confirm all positions before entering. And if the candles start trending the opposite direction after a lets say a mini pump/dump then the signal was false.
Finally this was made according to the 15 minute chart. I did not plan on remaking it for any other timeframes as I have left the code open for you to tweak and the setting are free to adjust aswell.
Q/A
Q: Does it repaint?
A: No, this is based on moving averages as far as I know they don't repaint.
Q: How did you come up with this indicator?
A: Went on youtube looking for trading strategies other and the usual EMA crosses and found a VWAP & EMA strat. I added the MVWAP and played with the numbers until I found something that I liked.
Q: How long have you been trading/learning pinescript?
A: Been trading less than a two months and pinescript about a month and a half.

VWAP Candles & MVWAPI was getting sick of the useless VWAP indicator on Trading View and wrote something that is more comprehensive and quite interesting, in fact: candles for VWAP.
It uses the original open/high/low/close and combines them as you would the original hlc3 calculation, but separately, to draw the candles as a shadow of the current price.
There are a few parameters to make it more flexible: source, resolution timeframe, volume length, and moving average length.
Volume Length (default: 5) will determine the candle calculations, cumulative sum of the past X bars.
Moving Average Length (default: 9) will determine the simple moving average (sma) length for the true VWAP (hlc3*volume/cumulative volume)
Source will change the Moving Average VWAP from hlc3 to whatever you want.
Resolution will attune the candles and Moving Average VWAP line to a different periodicity.
Just to be a pain, I also included the old VWAP from Trading View, as a comparison. You can disable it from the Style settings.
Enjoy and happy trading!
MVWAP Trend — SharkCIAThis method uses MVWAP to identify longer term trends. Suitable for 30m to 3d timeframes, recommended for 4h or 1d.
Complete Trend Trading System [Fhenry0331]This system was designed for the beginner trader to make money swing trading. Your losses will be small and your gains will be mostly large. You will show consistent profit. Period.
The system works on any security you like to trade. I used GBPUSD as an example because of the up swing and down swing it had recently. I tried to put as much information of how the system works in the chart. Hope it helps and is not to cluttered.
I will reiterate how the system works here: Everything is based off of closed price.
Legend
Uptrend: Buy
Green bar: initial start of an uptrend or uptrend continuing. Place order above that bar. If the initial bar does not stray too far from the MVWAP , I will place orders above subsequent bars if no filled occurred.
If initial start of the trend is missed, I will wait for the pullback. A pullback is a close below the MVWAP, and a close above the EMA (Low), RSI is above 50. Orders are placed above the pullback bars with plotted char "B" and also plotted green triangle up. Again orders are placed above those bars. the bars do not notate automatic buys. Don't chase anything. You will miss the initial bar on something because of news or earnings and it rocket up. Just wait, it will pullback. If it doesn't, to hell with it, on to the next.
Take profits: In the indicator you will see "T." That notates to take some profits. It is a suggestion. I was always told to take profits into spikes, as well as you can never lose money if you take profits. Up to you if you want to scale out and take the suggested profits or not.
Exit Completely: In an uptrend, close your entire position on bars colored yellow or red. (Again, closed bars)
In uptrend bars colored orange and black, do nothing, they are just pullback bars. Look for the buy pullback signal, then follow pullback buy rules for an uptrend.
Downtrend: Short
Red bar: initial start of a downtrend or downtrend continuing. Place order below the bar. If the initial bar does not stray too far fro the MVWAP, place orders below subsequent bars.
If initial start on the downtrend is missed, wait for the pullback. A pullback is a close above the MVWAP, and close below the EMA(Low). RSI is below 50. Orders are placed below the pullback bars with the plotted char "S" and also plotted red triangle. Again those bars are not automatic shorts, orders are placed below them. Don't chase anything. Wait for price to come into your plan. The idea FOMO is the stupidest thing ever, how can you miss out on something when it is always there. The market is always there and something will come into your zone. Chill.
"T": same as in uptrend, suggestion to take some profits.
Exit Completely: In a downtrend, close your entire position on bars colored orange or green.
In downtrend you will see bars colored yellow and black, do nothing, they are pullback bars. Look for the pullback short signal and follow pullback short rules.
If you have any questions get at me. Take a look at it on what you trade. Flip it through different securities.
Best of luck in all you do.
P.S. You should not take a trade right before earnings. You should also exit a trade right before earnings.
Simple TrenderOriginates from:
I was reading some Impulse Trading literature by A. Elder.. In it, someone named Kerry Lovvorn proposed "An End of Day Trend Following System" for someone lazy.
Originally it is just price closing above an 8 ema (low) for long. Exit when price closes below an 8 ema (low). The opposite for a short position.
Conditions: Buy when price closed below ema (low) for two bars or more, then closes above. Opposite for a short position. I do not follow this condition. Though it may help with whipsaw.
My condition is when price closes above the 26 ema (low) (works the best for me) I place orders above the initial crossing bars high. Opposite for lows.
I look for stocks that are low in price to go long on. I want the run from 2's to 15's
I look for stocks that are mid-teens/20's in price to go short on. I want the run from 20's to 2's
I look for stock with news and earnings that are already running (up or down) to play the pullback.
These conditions can easily be scanned for on thinkorswim
From first glance, the system looks like CMsling shotsystem. Although, I plagiarized some parts of the codes, because I am inept when it comes to that shit, it differs as it is not a moving average crossover system.
It is a price crossing over concept. A moving average VWAP is used for best entries on pullbacks.
Purpose:
--To catch the majority of a trend/wave/run.
--To identify pullback areas to go long or short while in midst of trend. To catch pullbacks off news and earning runners.
--To catch the initial start of trend with clear rules to enter
--Clear rules to exit
Issues
--possibilities of getting ninja sliced the fuck up. Can be mitigated by entering stocks with decent average volume. And also only going long above 200 ema and short below it. ADX won't work, at the initial start of the trend it will show not trending. Can look at blow off volume at the bottom followed by increase in buying for long and vice versa for short.
--Can give some huge gains away through gap ups or gap downs from news or earnings during trend. However, can get huge gain on gaps from news or earning. Nature of the game.
--Need some brass balls and a supply of pepto to stomach through some of the pullbacks. Gut wrenching seeing big gains dwindle. But they all even out at the end, you hope. (see NBEV and IGC, and CRON and others. shit don't go in straight lines, homie)
Pros
--It's simple and easy. Overall, you profit
--works with any security
Cons
--It can be stressful.
--does not work well on lower time frames. Do not recommend going below 15 minutes
--Possibility of working on 5 minutes with a time frame breakout strategy (15,30 min).
Couple it with LazyBear "Weis Wave Volume" indicator. Works well for pullback entries.
Enjoy. Ride some waves.
MVWAP Scalper Prototype [NeoButane]This is a tool that is best utilized on timeframes under 30 minutes.
Besides the MVWAP, the horizontal levels provide support/resistance and shows a 'magnet' to where price might go again.
McGinley Dynamic VWAP/MVWAP [NeoButane]The main concept for creating this was to completely remove the whipsaw nature of VWAP by introducing lag.
