Price Low: Volume Weighted MovAvg

Abbreviation: PriceLow VolWgtAvg
Category: Advanced Price Basic
Input Parameters:

Name Range Default
Low Price Low
Price Periods Int >= 1 5
Volume Volume
VolWgtAvg Periods Int >= 1 5

VolWgtAvg(X, Volume, VolWgtAvg Periods)

where
X = PriceLow(Low Price, Price Periods)

PriceLow represents Price Low
VolWgtAvg represents Volume Weighted Moving Average

 
Discussion:

This indicator attempts to smooth the Price Low indicator by calculating its moving average. Since it uses a volume weighted moving average (which gives more importance to those periods with higher volume relative to the other periods in the moving average’s time frame), the smoothing is influenced more by periods of relatively higher volume than by periods of relatively lower volume.
