Guía completa sobre VWAP trading en NinjaTrader 8. Precio promedio ponderado por volumen, bandas de desviación y estrategias institucionales.

VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) represents the average price weighted by volume throughout the trading session. This guide explains how institutional traders use VWAP for execution benchmarking and trade timing on NinjaTrader 8.

Understanding VWAP

VWAP is calculated by dividing the cumulative dollar volume by the cumulative volume for each period. It represents the average price at which volume has actually transacted throughout the session, making it a key benchmark for institutional traders who need to evaluate the quality of their executions. A trade executed below the VWAP is considered a good buy, while a trade executed above VWAP is considered a good sell.

Trading Strategies Around VWAP

Traders use VWAP as both a trend filter and a reversion target. When price is above VWAP, the bias is bullish; when below, bearish. VWAP deviation bands create additional reference levels for entries and exits. Our VWAP indicator for NinjaTrader 8 includes configurable standard deviation bands, multi-day VWAP, and anchored VWAP options for flexible analysis.

VWAP for Different Trading Styles

Scalpers use VWAP as an intraday pivot for mean reversion trades. Swing traders use multi-day VWAP for trend identification. Institutional traders use it as a benchmark for execution quality measurement.
