Z distance from VWAP Variation (jkf)This is a variation from LazyBear's Z-Distance from VWAP.
I use 3 different timeframes, where shorter term timeframes above longer term signals bullish.
Upper and lower bounds can impact too. Persistently high or low values will null the readings. So watch for that.

Distance from Vwap// How it Works \\
Measuring the distance of the close price from a higher timeframe VWAP - Volume Weighted Average Price
There is a threshold which is calculated by looking back at the previous x amount of bars and storing the highest/lowest values
If the distance from the vwap stretches above that threshold, the histogram will go green if price is above VWAP and red if its below the vwap
If the distance from the vwap reaches below the low threshold you will see the histogram flashes orange
// Settings \\
In the settings you have the ability to change what timeframe the indicator is calculated on, as well as this you can change the timeframe the VWAP is calculated on.
I always recommend using a higher timeframe vwap as they tend to me more respected
e.g on the hourly timeframe, I use the weekly VWAP, on 1 minute timeframe you may want to use 4 hour timeframe but obviously feel free to experiment
// Use Case \\
When histogram is flashing green, prices is pulling far away from the vwap, obviously you don't want to be buying a falling knife but if you have levels of confluence this can help spot reversals.
I personally wait until the first candle after its been green to get confirmation of the fall weakening. Vica versa for reds and shorts/sells.
When you see orange flashes, this shows that price has been consolidating and the price is very close to the higher time frame VWAP which could be considered a safe entry point as they tend to lead to a big move to follow

Y/Q/M/W aVWAP BandsYearly, Quarterly, Monthly or Weekly VWAP with Standard Deviation Envelope
Previous Y/Q/M/W VWAP and Band are extended forward automatically*
VWAP standard deviation envelope serves as a kind of Value Area, with the boundaries of the envelope acting as support and resistance. Previous envelops often show confluence with price action once price retests them.
Helpful to form a bias on the available time frames, find areas of support and resistance, and determine acceptance/rejection from breakouts or consolidations.

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.
[GarufiCommunity] Multi Indicator: VWAPs, MA, Pivot PointsThis script provides a collection of indicators to help traders look at multiple trends while maintaining a consistent configuration, even when jumping around different timeframes and symbols.
Additionally, this collection is particularly useful when trading decisions involve looking at dozens of indicators and analyzing, in aggregate, their confluence.
With this collection of indicators you can configure anchored VWAPs, MA, and Pivot Points:
- Anchored VWAPs: For each you define a fixed time and date to anchor it in the graph, and it stays consistent even when you change the symbol. An example use case can be setting one of the VWAPs to always start on the first candle on January 1st 2021, and a second VWAP a decade prior, so you don’t need to keep manually adjusting/adding VWAPs to the graph. At the moment you can define up to 4 anchored VWAPs.
- MA and Pivot Points: For each you can set independent timeframes, periods, and types, while using a single configuration panel. This helps reduce the amount of clicking needed when trying different configurations, such as testing different MA and Pivot periods and comparing how each behave in the graph (this personally helps me build trust in indicators). Permits use of up to 3 MAs and 2 Pivot Points.
Lastly, this script leverages and reuses modified code from the sources below:

TBM VWAP Bands Style SetupA stripped down and modified version of the 'VWAP with Standard Deviation Bands' indicator by pmk07. The bands have been modified and styled to match those used on the Tradovate platform by Matt from the Trades By Matt youtube channel so if you would like to know how they should be used go to his youtube channel and watch his strategy explanation video.
rth vwap and midMidpoint and VWAP are often important inflection points in daytrading. I managed to find a script providing me with a 24 hour session midline by NorthStarDayTrading and a RTH VWAP script by LDBC. So I decided to merge those two to get a RTH mid and vwap.
Koalafied RVWAPThis indicator shows both the Rolling VWAP and Standard Deviations as set by the user. The Rolling VWAP calculation is similar to the standard VWAP although it calculates the volume weighted average price over the specified period of time (lookback), resetting for each subsequent bar.
The unique aspect of this indicator is that instead of calculating the RVWAP over the current timeframes lookback period, the option is available to select a High-Time-Frame setting instead.
This has two different methods of calculation
1 - Based on HTF security requests (both repainting and non-repainting)
2 - Automatic calculation of number of current timeframe bars that make up the HTF lookback period (smoother and non-repainting plot)
Additionally a smooth function is included for the HTF input setting.
Vwap SalvatierraVwap Salvatierra. an indicator that must be accompanied by other volume indicators.
Benefits:
- Long term Vwap.
- Middle Std. deviations, Calculated automatically.
- Previous zones available.
How to use:
when the price is >= stdev+3, look for shorts till came back to vwap
whe the price is <= stdev-3, look for longs till came back to vwap
if the vwap cannot be broken, as resistance, after several attempts, then sell
if the vwap can't be broken, like support, after several tries, then buy.
VWAP GapsTheory of untested previous VWAPs acting in similar way to nPOC, where agreed previous 'value' based on volume acts as a liquidity area to be retested.
Indicator shows
- User selected VWAP
- Untested previous VWAPs. The line will disappear once price crosses it's value
- Sweeps of previous VWAPs. Show by both bar colours and plotted arrows under different conditions.
Sweep Filters
1. Bull or Bear Bar (required for an arrow plot)
2. Sweep Conditions i.e. open below line, high above line, and close below line
3. If current VWAP is below/above the previous VWAP value.
WAP Maverick - (Dual EMA Smoothed VWAP) - [mutantdog]Short Version:
This here is my take on the popular VWAP indicator with several novel features including:
Dual EMA smoothing.
Arithmetic and Harmonic Mean plots.
Custom Anchor feat. Intraday Session Sizes.
2 Pairs of Bands.
Side Input for Connection to other Indicator.
This can be used 'out of the box' as a replacement VWAP, benefitting from smoother transitions and easy-to-use custom alerts.
By design however, this is intended to be a highly customisable alternative with many adjustable parameters and a pseudo-modular input system to connect with another indicator. Well suited for the tweakers around here and those who like to get a little more creative.
I made this primarily for crypto although it should work for other markets. Default settings are best suited to 15m timeframe - the anchor of 1 week is ideal for crypto which often follows a cyclical nature from Monday through Sunday. In 15m, the default ema length of 21 means that the wap comes to match a standard vwap towards the end of Monday. If using higher chart timeframes, i recommend decreasing the ema length to closely match this principle (suggested: for 1h chart, try length = 8; for 4h chart, length = 2 or 3 should suffice).
Note: the use of harmonic mean calculations will cause problems on any data source incorporating both positive and negative values, it may also return unusable results on extremely low-value charts (eg: low-sat coins in /btc pairs).
Long version:
The development of this project was one driven more by experimentation than a specific end-goal, however i have tried to fine-tune everything into a coherent usable end-product. With that in mind then, this walkthrough will follow something of a development chronology as i dissect the various functions.
DUAL-EMA SMOOTHING
At its core this is based upon / adapted from the standard vwap indicator provided by TradingView although I have modified and changed most of it. The first mod is the dual ema smoothing. Rather than simply applying an ema to the output of the standard vwap function, instead i have incorporated the ema in a manner analogous to the way smas are used within a standard vwma. Sticking for now with the arithmetic mean, the basic vwap calculation is simply sum(source * volume) / sum(volume) across the anchored period. In this case i have simply applied an ema to each of the numerator and denominator values resulting in ema(sum(source * volume)) / ema(sum(volume)) with the ema length independent of the anchor. This results in smoother (albeit slower) transitions than the aforementioned post-vwap method. Furthermore in the case when anchor period is equal to current timeframe, the result is a basic volume-weighted ema.
The example below shows a standard vwap (1week anchor) in blue, a 21-ema applied to the vwap in purple and a dual-21-ema smoothed wap in gold. Notably both ema types come to effectively resemble the standard vwap after around 24 hours into the new anchor session but how they behave in the meantime is very different. The dual-ema transitions quite gradually while the post-vwap ema immediately sets about trying to catch up. Incidentally. a similar and slower variation of the dual-ema can be achieved with dual-rma although i have not included it in this indicator, attempted analogues using sma or wma were far less useful however.
STANDARD DEVIATION AND BANDS
With this updated calculation, a corresponding update to the standard deviation is also required. The vwap has its own anchored volume-weighted st.dev but this cannot be used in combination with the ema smoothing so instead it has been recalculated appropriately. There are two pairs of bands with separate multipliers (stepped to 0.1x) and in both cases high and low bands can be activated or deactivated individually. An example usage for this would be to create different upper and lower bands for profit and stoploss targets. Alerts can be set easily for different crossing conditions, more on this later.
Alongside the bands, i have also added the option to shift ('Deviate') the entire indicator up or down according to a multiple of the corrected st.dev value. This has many potential uses, for example if we want to bias our analysis in one direction it may be useful to move the wap in the opposite. Or if the asset is trading within a narrow range and we are waiting on a breakout, we could shift to the desired level and set alerts accordingly. The 'Deviate' parameter applies to the entire indicator including the bands which will remain centred on the main WAP.
CUSTOM (W)ANCHOR
Ever thought about using a vwap with anchor periods smaller than a day? Here you can do just that. I've removed the Earnings/Dividends/Splits options from the basic vwap and added an 'Intraday' option instead. When selected, a custom anchor length can be created as a multiple of minutes (default steps of 60 mins but can input any value from 0 - 1440). While this may not seem at first like a useful feature for anyone except hi-speed scalpers, this actually offers more interesting potential than it appears.
When set to 0 minutes the current timeframe is always used, turning this into the basic volume-weighted ema mentioned earlier. When using other low time frames the anchor can act as a pre-ema filter creating a stepped effect akin to an adaptive MA. Used in combination with the bands, the result is a kind of volume-weighted adaptive exponential bollinger band; if such a thing does not already exist then this is where you create it. Alternatively, by combining two instances you may find potential interesting crosses between an intraday wap and a standard timeframe wap. Below is an example set to intraday with 480 mins, 2x st.dev bands and ema length 21. Included for comparison in purple is a standard 21 ema.
I'm sure there are many potential uses to be found here, so be creative and please share anything you come up with in the comments.
ARITHMETIC AND HARMONIC MEAN CALCULATIONS
The standard vwap uses the arithmetic mean in its calculation. Indeed, most mean calculations tend to be arithmetic: sma being the most widely used example. When volume weighting is involved though this can lead to a slight bias in favour of upward moves over downward. While the effect of this is minor, over longer anchor periods it can become increasingly significant. The harmonic mean, on the other hand, has the opposite effect which results in a value that is always lower than the arithmetic mean. By viewing both arithmetic and harmonic waps together, the extent to which they diverge from each other can be used as a visual reference of how much price has changed during the anchored period.
Furthermore, the harmonic mean may actually be the more appropriate one to use during downtrends or bearish periods, in principle at least. Consider that a short trade is functionally the same as a long trade on the inverse of the pair (eg: selling BTC/USD is the same as buying USD/BTC). With the harmonic mean being an inverse of the arithmetic then, it makes sense to use it instead. To illustrate this below is a snapshot of LUNA/USDT on the left with its inverse 1/(LUNA/USDT) = USDT/LUNA on the right. On both charts is a wap with identical settings, note the resistance on the left and its corresponding support on the right. It should be easy from this to see that the lower harmonic wap on the left corresponds to the upper arithmetic wap on the right. Thus, it would appear that the harmonic mean should be used in a downtrend. In principle, at least...
In reality though, it is not quite so black and white. Rarely are these values exact in their predictions and the sort of range one should allow for inaccuracies will likely be greater than the difference between these two means. Furthermore, the ema smoothing has already introduced some lag and thus additional inaccuracies. Nevertheless, the symmetry warrants its inclusion.
SIDE INPUT & ALERTS
Finally we move on to the pseudo-modular component here. While TradingView allows some interoperability between indicators, it is limited to just one connection. Any attempt to use multiple source inputs will remove this functionality completely. The workaround here is to instead use custom 'string' input menus for additional sources, preserving this function in the sole 'source' input. In this case, since the wap itself is dependant only price and volume, i have repurposed the full 'source' into the second 'side' input. This allows for a separate indicator to interact with this one that can be used for triggering alerts. You could even use another instance of this one (there is a hidden wap:mid plot intended for this use which is the midpoint between both means). Note that deleting a connected indicator may result in the deletion of those connected to it.
Preset alertconditions are available for crossings of the side input above and below the main wap, alongside several customisable alerts with corresponding visual markers based upon selectable conditions. Alerts for band crossings apply only to those that are active and only crossings of the type specified within the 'crosses' subsection of the indicator settings. The included options make it easy to create buy alerts specific to certain bands with sell alerts specific to other bands. The chart below shows two instances with differing anchor periods, both are connected with buy and sell alerts enabled for visible bands.
Okay... So that just about covers it here, i think. As mentioned earlier this is the product of various experiments while i have been learning my way around PineScript. Some of those experiments have been branched off from this in order to not over-clutter it with functions. The pseudo-modular design and the 'side' input are the result of an attempt to create a connective framework across various projects. Even on its own though, this should offer plenty of tweaking potential for anyone who likes to venture away from the usual standards, all the while still retaining its core purpose as a traders tool.
Thanks for checking this out. I look forward to any feedback below.
6X Bollinger Bands + MA + VWAP Dingue V56X Bollinger Bands Dingue V5 - This is the updated version for Pine Script 5
This indicator lets you quickly see all the intricacies of the Bollinger Bands; it simplifies its usage and maximizes the results.
Color-coded if the price is above or under the middle and based on direction.
Color-coded for expansion and contraction of the bands.
Option to plot ‘Squeezed bands’. It will show above the bands when they become smaller than the setting chosen. This helps identify build-up that might explode one way or another.
- 6x independent Bands can be adjusted as you want. It gives you possibilities in how you see variance, trends, support and resistance.
You can also select the MA type: SMA EMA WMA VWAM FRAMA … to explore new ways to see the Bollinger bands.
New in this version, you can now add a separate ‘Long MA’ that you can select independently from the Bands. Ex. Plot 200 SMA This helps in building a strategy with the trend and the bands.
Like the MA above, you can also plot 2 different VWAP independently from the Bands. This also helps knowing where the price stands compared to the bigger time frame VWAP’s price.
'Tool tips' explain other settings, if you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments below.
Thank you for the feedback and check all my ‘Dingue’ indicators.
VWAP Bands - Event Based [LuxAlgo]This indicator returns VWAP bands with a degree of smoothness resetting based on various user-selected events. The bands are constructed using a VWAP based naive standard deviation.
The indicator can be anchored or start from the first bar and can be used as trailing support/resistance, in a moving average crossover system, or as source for external indicators.
Settings
Start: VWAP anchor point
Start At First Bar: Display the VWAP from the first bar instead of a specified anchor point
VWAP
Length: Controls certain characteristics of the user-selected event
Mult: Multiplicative factor for the VWAP standard deviation
Source: Price source of the indicator
Event
Event: Determines the event resetting the degree of smoothness of the VWAP
External Cross/Event: Input source used for external crosses/events
Further details about the available events are given below.
Details
Various event conditions are available to the users. When the selected event occurs, the VWAP equals the current closing price.
By default, the event is periodic, that is the VWAP resets periodically, with a period determined by the Length setting.
The Higher High event resets the VWAP when a new higher high occurs.
The Lower Low event resets the VWAP when a new lower low occurs.
The Trend Change event is similar however resets the VWAP only once a higher high or lower low occurs. Higher highs and lower lows are given by Donchian channels with a period determined by the Length setting.
The Start event reset the VWAP at the selected anchor point (or first bar if the "Start At First Bar" setting is selected). This can be useful if one only needs a regular anchored VWAP band indicator.
The External Cross event resets the VWAP when the Source price crosses the series selected in the External Cross/Event setting. In the image above the VWAP resets when the price crosses the volatility stop indicator.
The External Event resets the indicator when a series selected in the External Cross/Event setting is not equal to 0. This allows using a custom event in order to reset the VWAP. In the above example the VWAP is reset during a new session due to the External Session indicator.
VWAP Multiple [Huntersull]This is a VWAP/Price multiple analysis, in the same vein as something like the Mayer multiple.
It finds the VWAP of price and volume starting at the bar you choose when initiating the script (You can also drag the starting point line on the chart to change it later), and calculates the running VWAP total for every following bar until the current bar.
It then takes the hlc3 of price for each bar and divides it by the VWAP value of that bar, giving a multiple over VWAP price.
This is then charted with your choice of an SMA, EMA, or WMA using VWAP as the source, and a default length of 200, which is also modifiable.
When VWAP is over the moving average, it is filled green. When VWAP is below the moving average, it is filled red.

Anchored VWAP ClickIt calculates AVWAP set from a mouse click on a chart instead of having to edit a popup box, manually transferring date and time from the chart.
It's the Oct 2021 sample script from Tradingview to demonstrate their new chart interactive capabilities of Pine script.
www.tradingview.com
I take no credit for this, just noticed it wasn't in the Public Library.
This ability to accept OnMouse positional data from the chart, into an indicator has been needed in TV for a long time.
Glad to see they continue to grow the capabilities.
Anchored VWAP Hand-OffBrian Shannon's "VWAP hand off" strategy, Has been my "go to" for some time now. Version 5 makes this much easier, with drag and drop placement.
When price taps the base anchored VWAP, a second VWAP is plotted at that point. When price taps the second, a third is plotted, and so on.
Each consecutive VWAP can be used to identify trend and future pivot points as trend continues.
IF the VWAPS look messy, price action is choppy and a trend hasnt yet started.
Rolling EMAVWAP with Standard Deviation BandsThis is experimental code trying to implement exponentially decreasing weights over time in a simple VWAP.
Also i applied EMA rules when calculating the Standard Deviation Bands.
The script produces results from 1 candle.
There is an "log space" option to neutralize bands shifts when charting in log space - this gives the correct geometrically equal distances on both sides of the emaVWAP.
