VWMA

Volume Weighted Moving Average — a moving average weighted by the volume of each period. Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) sums the products of price and volume and divides by the total volume over the period. It is close to VWAP, but applies to an arbitrary data window rather than only the current session. Bars with high volume carry greater weight.

Formula:

VWMA = SUM(Close * Volume, period) / SUM(Volume, period)
