VWAP

Volume Weighted Average Price — the average price of a stock weighted by volume traded throughout the day. Used by traders as a benchmark; price above VWAP = bullish intraday trend.

Formula

VWAP = Σ(Price × Volume) / Σ(Volume)

Example

HDFC Bank trading consistently above its VWAP of ₹1,650 signals strong intraday buying pressure.
