1. Anchored VWAP High & Low

  • Tracks two separate anchored VWAP lines:
    • High Anchor → VWAP starting from the most recent “high breakout” point.
    • Low Anchor → VWAP starting from the most recent “low breakout” point.
  • Anchors reset when:
    • Price breaks above the previous anchored high (for the high anchor) or below the previous anchored low (for the low anchor).
    • Or after a set number of sessions (e.g., 1 day) if SessionLimited is enabled.
    • Optionally, resets only occur during specified market hours.
  • Can also show a Midline = average of high and low anchored VWAP.


2. Session & Market Hours Controls

  • SessionLimited: Limits how long an anchor can persist across sessions (trading days).
  • AnchorMaxSessions: Max number of sessions before auto-reset.
  • MarketHoursOnly: Prevents resets outside chosen start/end times (e.g., RTH for stocks).
  • ExchangeUtcOffsetHours: Adjusts times for market hours to your chosen exchange.


3. Daily VWAP for the Last 3 Days

  • Tracks daily VWAP for:
    • Day 1 (today)
    • Day 2 (yesterday)
    • Day 3 (day before yesterday)
  • These can all be displayed together to visualize short-term VWAP levels.


4. TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price)

  • Optional line showing TWAP based on different moving average methods:
    • SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, VWMA, or Linear Regression.
  • Can reset each session (Session mode) or run continuously (Perpetual mode).
  • Length is adjustable, and the source price type is selectable.


5. Visual Outputs

  • Plots lines for:
    • Anchored High VWAP
    • Anchored Low VWAP
    • Anchored Midline
    • Day 1, 2, 3 VWAP
    • TWAP
  • Also draws labels at the last bar showing which line is which.


6. Volume Handling

  • Uses tick volume by default (cTrader standard).
  • Can prefer real volume if available.


💡 In trading terms:
This indicator is mainly for tracking anchored VWAP levels from key swing points (recent highs/lows), while also keeping track of short-term VWAP history and optionally overlaying a TWAP. It’s designed for traders who want precise session-based VWAP tracking with reset rules similar to the original Pine version, but with enhancements for market-hour gating and multiple VWAP/TWAP references.
