The volume-weighted average Price (VWAP) is a custom moving average indicator that displays the average price an asset has traded over a trading period. Unlike the traditional moving averages, VWAP incorporates an asset’s traded volume into its calculation, enabling traders to assess the average price a financial asset has traded over a given period.
The indicator displays the VWAP for daily, weekly, and monthly analysis, considering the weighted volume traded at each specified date. Thus, displaying the average price at which an asset has traded throughout the day, week, and month makes it a valuable technical indicator for identifying intraday and swing trading opportunities.
Features of the VWAP MT5 Indicator
The indicator offers traders a real-time update of the average traded volume at various price levels, presented through three distinct lines representing daily, weekly, and monthly periods. The red line represents the daily VWAP, while the blue and green show the weekly and monthly VWAP.
Benefits of Using the Indicator
- Trend Identification: The VWAP indicator offers traders insight into the average price weighted by volume, aiding in trend identification. For instance, a bullish market is when the price crosses above the VWAP, while a bearish trend is signaled when the market crosses below it.
- Dynamic Support and Resistance: The lines of the VWAP indicator act as potential support and resistance zones, assisting traders in identifying potential price reversal trading opportunities.
