Tonic VWAP

VWAP Indicator — Version 2.0

By Tonic Investment

The VWAP Indicator (Volume Weighted Average Price) by Tonic Investment provides a precise and configurable visual representation of VWAP across multiple institutional time horizons. Designed for professional traders and systematic strategies, the indicator allows users to analyse price positioning relative to volume-weighted market value throughout different trading cycles.

VWAP is widely used by institutional participants to evaluate execution quality, identify mean-reversion opportunities, and determine fair value during a trading session. This implementation extends the standard VWAP model by allowing calculations across multiple timelines and price models, enabling deeper analysis across intraday and macro market structures.

Key Features

Multi-Timeline VWAP Calculation

The indicator supports several VWAP anchor periods, allowing traders to observe market equilibrium across different structural horizons:

• Daily

• Weekly

• Monthly

• Quarterly

• Yearly

This flexibility enables traders to monitor both short-term execution levels and broader institutional positioning.

Configurable Price Calculation Models

Users can select how VWAP is calculated based on the preferred price methodology:

• Close

• Open

• High

• Low

• Median Price — (High + Low) / 2

• Standard Price — (High + Low + Close) / 3

• Weighted Price — (High + Low + Open + Close) / 4

These options allow the indicator to adapt to different analytical styles and trading models.

Volume Handling

The indicator supports two volume types depending on market data availability:

• Tick Volume (default) — available on all brokers and instruments

• Real Volume — used when supported by the exchange or broker

This ensures compatibility across a wide range of markets while maintaining accuracy where real volume data is available.

Standard Deviation Bands

• σ1 / σ2 / σ3

• Individual enable/disable

• Custom multipliers
