VWAP with percentage adjustment

  HI There,

  Is there an intraday VWAP indicator with % adjustment. Basically, it will have the main vwap and 2 additional vwap bands, 1 at above and 1 at below as per attached image.

  Please find below the VWAP code with bands in percentage, change the percentage setting at first line:

  percent = 1 if day<>day[1] then d=0 else d=d+1 if volume >0 then VWAP = SUMMATION[d](volume*typicalprice)/SUMMATION[d](volume) endif endif RETURN VWAP as "VWAP", vwap*(1+percent/100) as "up", vwap*(1-percent/100) as "down"

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

  percent = 1   if day<>day[1] then d=0 else d=d+1 if volume >0 then VWAP = SUMMATION[d](volume*typicalprice)/SUMMATION[d](volume) endif   endif   RETURN VWAP  as "VWAP", vwap*(1+percent/100) as "up", vwap*(1-percent/100) as "down"

  Hello Nicolas,

  Thank you for the code.

  I have tested the above code in ProRealTime but I’ve found the candles “Circled in orange” are not align to the main vwap, 2% vwap and -2%  vwap.

  I have attached image comparison PRT to two other platforms that may give you an insight to what I’m talking about.

  Many Thanks,
  Wayne

  What you get out depends on what you put in! The data feeding your two other platforms will be different to the PRT data feed. The output from any indicator when applied to different data will be different!

  I imagine if you check the candles and the volume for each candle on each platform you will see that they are different.

  Hi Vonasi, thank you for the feedback.

  The codes Nicolas provided I think it’s based on intraday vwap with % outter bands. Would there be different if the code was based on daily vwap with % outter bands?

  I think I may gotten it mixed up with intraday vwap vs daily vwap.  Please see the attached image. I have added another indicator (daily vwap, orange line), it seems to be reflect to the other two platform. Could this be the issue here?

  They sound like the same thing to me. Nicolas’ code uses typical price in the calculation – perhaps the other indicators use close or median price?

  The internal VWAP of the platform uses the real volume by price (Bid/Ask) in order to calculate, which is not possible with custom coding, that’s why it differs a bit.
