VWAP Bands and Volume Profile combines two common volume tools in one indicator: an anchored VWAP with deviation bands, and a volume profile with its main levels.
What it shows
- VWAP anchored to a session start time of your choice, the day, the week or the month.
- Up to three volume-weighted standard-deviation bands (default 1 and 2, with 3 optional), each with its own multiplier.
- A volume profile of the current VWAP period or of the bars visible on your chart, drawn as horizontal rows.
- Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH) and Value Area Low (VAL), with the value-area percentage adjustable (default 70%).
Volume source
Many forex and CFD brokers, including for XAUUSD, only provide tick volume (the number of price changes). In automatic mode the indicator uses real volume when the broker supplies it and tick volume otherwise. It prints which one it is using in the Experts tab. You can also force either source. Tick volume is a measure of activity, not of traded contracts.
How it calculates
VWAP is the running sum of typical price times volume divided by the running sum of volume since the anchor. Values on closed candles do not change. The value on the current candle updates until it closes. The first candle of each period is left blank so lines from different periods are not joined. The profile spreads each candle's volume evenly across its high-low range, using M1 data where possible and a higher timeframe for long ranges. The profile of the running period updates every few seconds, and the visible-range profile updates when you scroll or zoom.
Forex and gold
No settings are in pips, so it works the same on EURUSD, USDJPY and XAUUSD. A daily anchor suits intraday charts on forex and gold; a weekly anchor suits H1 and H4.
Inputs
VWAP: anchor period, session start time, volume source, bands on or off and their multipliers.
Volume profile: mode (off, current period, visible range), number of rows, value area %, row length, colours, level labels.
Notes
- This indicator does not open, modify or close trades. It is an analysis tool and not financial advice. Past behaviour of price does not guarantee future results, and no result is guaranteed.
