VWAP Trend Dashboard
What It Does
Displays a compact dashboard on any MT5 chart showing the VWAP-based bias for up to 5 symbols simultaneously. For each symbol it checks the current price against four VWAP levels and summarises the overall directional bias in a single Trend column.
Dashboard Columns
Symbol: Your custom display label
NY VWAP: VWAP anchored at NY session open today
Day VWAP: VWAP anchored at 00:00 server time today
LOD: VWAP anchored from today's Low-of-Day bar forward
HOD: VWAP anchored from today's High-of-Day bar forward
Trend: Bullish / Bearish / Mixed — majority vote of the 4 signals above
Each signal dot is:
- Green: price is "above" that VWAP level
- Red: price is "below" that VWAP level
- Orange: level not yet calculated (e.g. NY session hasn't opened)
Setup: NY Session Times
The indicator uses "broker/server time", not your local time. You must enter the correct server-time equivalent of the NY session:
- NY_Open_Hour / NY_Open_Min: server time when the NY equity session opens
- NY_Close_Hour / NY_Close_Min: server time when it closes
Symbols
- Enter up to 5 symbols using the exact broker name (case-sensitive).
- The "Label" field is what appears on the dashboard — use any short alias you like.
- Leave Symbol 4 and 5 blank if you only need 3. Empty rows are automatically hidden.
- If a symbol can't be found, its row shows orange dots. Check the name in Market Watch.
Running Multiple Instances on the Same Chart
Each copy of the indicator needs a "unique Instance_ID". This prevents objects from conflicting.
1. Add the indicator a second time to the same chart.
2. In its settings, change "Instance_ID" from "1" to "2".
3. Adjust "Dashboard_X / Dashboard_Y" so the two panels don't overlap.
You can run as many copies as you need — one per chart, or several on the same chart showing different symbol groups.
Appearance Settings
Dashboard_X / Y: Panel position in pixels from top-left
Font_Size: Default is 9. Increase for higher-res screens
Color_Bull: Dot color when price > VWAP (default green)
Color_Bear: Dot color when price < VWAP (default red)
Color_Mixed: Dot color when level is unavailable (default orange)
Col_* widths: Pixel width of each column — adjust if text is clipped
Trend Logic
The Trend column is a simple majority vote:
- 4 signals are checked (NY VWAP, Day VWAP, LOD VWAP, HOD VWAP)
- More green: Bullish
- More red: Bearish
- Tie: Mixed
Notes and Tips
- The indicator runs on M1 bars fetched for each symbol. Make sure Market Watch history is loaded for all symbols (right-click, History, request data).
- The LOD/HOD VWAP resets when a new intraday extreme is formed — it will shift as the session develops.
- The title bar always shows the current live date and time so you can confirm the data is updating.
Troubleshooting
All dots are orange: Symbol name is wrong or not in Market Watch. Enable it and wait for a tick
NY VWAP always orange: NY session hasn't opened yet for today, or session times are misconfigured.
Two instances overlap: Give each a different Instance_ID and offset Dashboard_X/Y.
Dashboard not visible: Check Dashboard_X/Y — may be off-screen. Reset to X=15, Y=20.
