\"Volume-weighted<\/td>\n\n
Volume-Weighted Average Price Indicator<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Continuing to extend the technical analysis capabilities, we’ve added a new indicator \u2014 the Volume-Weighted Average Price.\u00a0VWAP does exactly what its name suggests. It measures the average price over a certain time\u00a0horizon by\u00a0determining\u00a0the ratio of the value to the total volume. We’ll add the VWAP indicator to our Technical Indicators Demo<\/a> soon. In the meantime,\u00a0you can find\u00a0its demonstration here.<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
