Hi ZTR,

have done this quickly. I have not put this to the download section for several reasons


The indicator download sections of many forums are already polluted with useless stuff, which only makes it more difficult to find the really useful indicators.

I am not oppsed though, if anybody wants to add this to the downloads.

Mike Highlighted it, JDMJ. (Just Doing My Job)

If you believe it is still beta then wait see what else is done to it?

Thanks,

Andy

Off topic but on topic:

There is code with my name on it in the Downloads section I put there BUT I can't update without asking the mods to help...

There is code in the downloads section that was never meant to be there but was pulled from threads where the code never matured...

This is the wrong place to post this but we are all online now

(1) Will modify the code only to repaint for plotstyle line (cannot do this now, because NT 6.5. is not installed on my notebook.
(2) Could then contact author of the code to publish the modified version.
(3) There are also indicators in the download section, which I coded and cannot update, LOL.

Hi anniebie321,

if you think about it, you will find out the following: When a candle closes above VWAP the new price added is higher than VWAP one candle ago, so the VWAP will be increased.

For an anchored VWAP the two conditions are identical! And your VWAP is an anchored VWAP, which means calculation of volume weighted average price starts somewhere and no values are dropping out, when new values are added.

Glad you like the monkey, found it somewhere on the web. I think it is a relative of Mr. Adam Monk

In the four years since Mr. Monk has chaired and inspired this contest, his stocks have posted annual returns of 37 percent, 36 percent, 3 percent and, in 2006, 36 percent, beating the major indexes every time. It's proof that you don't have to be an insider CEO, an insider hedge-fund manager or a loudmouth on CNBC to make money in the market.

The latest version of the indicator now lets you select different colors for upsloping and downsloping VWAP and TWAP.
