How to use TakVWAP from an EA 🛠

If you want to read TakVWAP values inside your Expert Advisor, follow these steps:

1️⃣ Know the input order
When calling  iCustom() , parameters must be in this order:

1. int vwap_period  – VWAP period (candles)

2. bool vwap_resetDaily  – Reset VWAP every day (true/false)

3. bool vwap_showLine  – Show the VWAP line on chart (visual only)

4. color vwap_color  – Line color

5. ENUM_LINE_STYLE vwap_lineStyle  – Line style

6. int vwap_lineWidth  – Line width

If you only want to change the first parameters, you can skip the rest and defaults will be used.

2️⃣ Create the handle in your EA
Example using defaults for visuals:

Example passing all inputs:

    

        int vwapHandle = iCustom(
    


    

           _Symbol,
   PERIOD_H1,
   "Market\\TakVWAP",
   40,                 // vwap_period
   false,              // vwap_resetDaily
   true,               // vwap_showLine
   clrBlueViolet,      // vwap_color
   STYLE_SOLID,        // vwap_lineStyle
   1                   // vwap_lineWidth
);

    

3️⃣ Read the VWAP value
TakVWAP has 1 buffer, index =  0 .
Use  shift=1  for the last closed candle (safer for signals).

4️⃣ Optional: show the line on your chart
iCustom()  loads the indicator but doesn’t display it.
If you also want to see it:

    

        

    


    

        ChartIndicatorAdd(0, 0, vwapHandle);

    

5️⃣ Pro tips
✔ Always check  BarsCalculated()  before  CopyBuffer()
✔ Use exact product name/path ( "Market\\TakVWAP" )
✔ For signals, avoid  shift=0  (bar still forming)
