The indicator displays the Volume Weighted Average Price of the selected session. It can be used on all types of charts.
You can apply the indicators to charts with several intraday sessions. You can then select via indicator panel, for which session the VWAP shall be shown.
ETH session: The VWAP will be calculated for the full session, if ETH is selected via indicator dialogue.
RTH session: It is possible to display the VWAP for the RTH session or the night session. Set indicator to RTH and select the number of the session, for example "First" for the night session and "Second" for the RTH session.
RTH multi: The VWAP will be displayed starting from the open of the RTH session as specified and then continue through the after session.
Volatility Bands: The indicators has three different modes to calculate volatility bands. For each of the modes multipliers can be selected.
Variance_Price: The variance is calculated from the selected input values of the price bars and the last known value for the VWAP within the current session. This way of calculating the bands is similar to calculating Bollinger Bands with a variable period starting with the first bar of the session.
Variance_Distance: The variance is calculated from the selected input values of the price bars and the value for the VWAP corresponding to price. It is a variance of the vertical distance of price from VWAP. This method corrects for a trend and produces slightly narrower bands on a trending day.
Session_Range: The quarter range of the current session is used as a measure of volatility instead of the standard deviation.
Public Holidays: For Globex instruments the indicator will display the ETH VWAP for the two-day-session including a public holiday. The indicator is preconfigured for the Globex holiday calendar.
Colors: Different colors can be selected for rising and falling VWAP. Also colors and opacities can be selected for the areas between the inner bands, middle bands and outer bands.
Update Jan 23, 2011: Globex holiday calendar for 2011 added. Holiday sessions will only be applied to Globex instruments. Indicators now also work on tick and volume charts.
Update May 17, 2011: New signature for GetNextBeginEnd() implemented.
Update June 15, 2011: VWAP can now be displayed for RTH and after-session, see option RTH-multi. Three different types of VWAP bands added.
Update July 26, 2011: SessionVWAP uses (high + low + open + close) / 4 for higher accuracy. Adapted to different plot styles.
Update January 25, 2012: Globex holiday calendar for 2012 added. Small bug removed, which had affected the plot colors.
Update February 23, 2013: Plot recoded & CPU efficiency improved, Globex holiday calendar for 2013 added.
Update March 30, 2013: Algorithm improved for both speed and accuracy. VWAP start time can be selected.
Update April 11, 2013: Plot modified for compatibility with charts built from multiple bar series.
Update May 10, 2013: Bug removed, which led to occasional false identification of the RTH session on charts built from ticks.
Update December 9, 2013: Holiday calendar added for 2014.
Update December 28, 2014: Holiday calendar added for 2015. Price markers improved for US interest rate futures.
Delta Package V3 NT8.0.2 now with commitment of traders (COT) and heiken-ashi
Update Feb 2017: Changed "Show above / below EMA colors" to false to avoid confusion.
Minor fix 30 Dec: Added ability to change bar width manually. Note, if you have any custom built strategies using DeltaV3 then you will have to adjust your code as per the strategy sample included.
New: Sample code for use in a strategy is included. The strategy does not do anything, it simply shows how to access the delta values. It works, I've tested it. Make sure you use TickReplay on your host chart if you want historical values accessed within a strategy.
Includes everything from V2 here as well as these additions:
1. Commitment of traders: high, low and total.
2. EMA plot: Set to normal, gapless and reset at session open.
3. Heiken Ashi: Chose from the algorithms of Dan Valcu (standard) or Sylvain Vervoort.
4. Painbars based on delta values or above/below the ema.
Plus general improvements......
Make sure you enable Tick Replay to use this historically! You will not need Gom recorder for this.
However, Tick replay will not work with some Renko bars due to RemoveLastBar()
*Occasionally if the bid/ask plots don't look quite right, especially if you haven't connected for a few days, make sure you right-click on the chart and select "Reload all Historical Data".
** Please report bugs to me via PM rather than in the comments. Thank you.
