VWAP Alerts V2

The VWAP Alerts V2 indicator provides an advanced Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) framework with five customizable standard deviation bands and integrated alert functionality. This tool is designed to help traders identify mean reversion opportunities and trend strength by monitoring price action relative to volume-weighted benchmarks across multiple volatility levels.

Usage

The tool can be used to identify overextended market conditions or potential trend continuation points. When the price interacts with the outer standard deviation bands, it often signals a potential reversal toward the central VWAP line. Conversely, price maintaining a position outside specific bands can indicate a strong trending environment.

Examples of use cases include:

• Mean Reversion: Looking for long entries when price crosses under the lower deviation bands and short entries when price crosses over the upper bands.
• Trend Following: Using the central VWAP line as a dynamic support or resistance level during intraday trends.
• Volatility Monitoring: Observing the expansion or contraction of the five deviation bands to gauge market volatility.

The indicator includes visual shapes on the chart to signal crossovers and crossunders of the VWAP and its bands, assisting in quick trade identification.

Details

The script calculates the standard VWAP based on intraday volume and price (HL2), resetting at the start of each new session. It expands upon the standard calculation by offering five distinct sets of upper and lower bands based on user-defined standard deviation multipliers. This version specifically optimizes signal sensitivity and includes a "Previous VWAP Close" feature to provide historical context from the prior session.

Settings

Deviations

• Stdev above (1-5): Sets the standard deviation multiplier for the five upper bands.
• Stdev below (1-5): Sets the standard deviation multiplier for the five lower bands.
• Show group of bands (2-5): Toggles the visibility of the respective deviation levels to declutter the chart.

General

• Show previous VWAP close: Displays the final VWAP value from the previous session as a series of circles.
• Color Source: Determines the price source used for specific color logic.
• MA Source: Determines the price source used for the moving average that triggers alerts and signals against the bands.
