What is different in this calculation vs. the calculation that is done by TOS? Would it be possible to adjust the calculation to match TOS? I think the calculation is starting from the opening price the average price in that candle?Just input the number of days back and the start time for a continuous VWAP from that point.
Hi There,Just input the number of days back and the start time for a continuous VWAP from that point.
Hi There,
How do we display the previous day VWAP for SPX like shown (in green) in the attached image?
I played with the above code and couldn't get it to look like the one shown in the image. Interestingly, it doesn't show the vwap for SPX.
Thank You!

Awesome. Thanks for coding the script. Would you be able to add labels to the previous day vwap (call it 'PD VWAP') and the current day vvwap (call it 'VWAP') so that we can distinguish between them?1. SPX dioes not have any volume in TOS. Therefore, the VWAP will not plot.
2. The script is coded to start each day selected at a time input. The previous version was set to begin at 0930, the start of regular trading hours.
3. Since you are using futures, I have modified the script to start at the beginning of the trading day (1800) for the /ES.
4. The image shows the TOS VWAP native study, which starts plotting at the start of each day and then restarts anew at the beginning of the next day.
5. The image also shows 2 versions of the script. One is set to 1 and other 2. Each maps the same day's VWAP as the native study. The one set at 2 continues plotting into the following day(s) from the start without restarting like the TOS native version.
6. Your image shows another broker chart than TOS. So I do not know how that compares to TOS.
Awesome. Thanks for coding the script. Would you be able to add labels to the previous day vwap (call it 'PD VWAP') and the current day vvwap (call it 'VWAP') so that we can distinguish between them?
Thanks Again!
