1. Strategy Components 1.1. VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) Definition: VWAP is a trading indicator that provides the average price of an asset based on both price and volume. Purpose in Strategy: It serves as a dynamic support/resistance level. The price crossing above VWAP signals potential bullish momentum (long entry). The price crossing below VWAP signals potential bearish momentum (short entry). Calculation:
Typical Price = ( 𝐻 𝑖 𝑔 ℎ + 𝐿 𝑜 𝑤 + 𝐶 𝑙 𝑜 𝑠 𝑒 ) / 3 (High+Low+Close)/3 VWAP = Sum(Typical Price × Volume) Sum(Volume) Sum(Volume) Sum(Typical Price × Volume) over the defined rolling period. 1.2. Trend Filter Indicator: A 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is used to identify the larger trend. In Uptrend: The price is above the EMA. In Downtrend: The price is below the EMA. Purpose in Strategy: It ensures trades are aligned with the broader trend, reducing false signals. Only long trades are allowed in an uptrend, and only short trades are allowed in a downtrend.
