Structure-Anchored VWAP [WAT]
Structure-Anchored VWAP [WAT] is a market-structure-aware VWAP indicator for MetaTrader 5 that anchors VWAP to meaningful swing and structural points instead of relying only on fixed session resets.
It combines Market Structure + Anchored VWAP + Deviation Bands + Retest Signals + ATR Trade Management into one visual framework.
Key Features
✓ 3 Anchor Modes — Swing, Structure and Fast
✓ Structure Detection — HH, HL, LH, LL, EQH and EQL
✓ Anchored VWAP — VWAP follows meaningful structural moves
✓ Deviation Bands — Optional 0.5σ and 2σ bands
✓ Premium / Fair Value / Discount zones
✓ VWAP Retest Signals after configurable displacement
✓ Bullish/Bearish VWAP colouring based on structure
✓ Volume Spike Protection using median-volume filtering
✓ ATR-Based SL + TP1 + TP2 + TP3
✓ Automatic Break-Even after TP1
✓ Live Dashboard with trend, VWAP, signals and trade statistics
How It Works
Market Structure → VWAP Anchor → Deviation → Retest → Trade Management
The indicator identifies structural pivots, anchors VWAP to the relevant market move, measures price deviation from VWAP and monitors potential retests.
Default Balanced Risk Model
| Setting | Default |
|---|---|
| Stop Loss | 1.5 ATR |
| TP1 | 1R |
| TP2 | 2R |
| TP3 | 3R |
| Break-Even | Enabled |
Additional Conservative, Aggressive, Scalping and Custom presets are available.
Why Use It?
Traditional VWAP tells you where volume-weighted equilibrium is. Structure-Anchored VWAP adds market context by connecting that equilibrium to the structural move that created it.
Suitable for scalping, intraday and swing analysis.
Structure first. VWAP second. Context-driven execution.
