Using VWAP as a start point, the VWAP Predator uses proprietary Fibonacci bands to help determine signal criteria. Most traders use VWAP in a simple way to determine whether an instrument is in a bearish or bullish state, but that doesn't help choosing the correct time to go long or short.
The xBat VWAP Predator uses behavioural analysis with volume, price action with open and close proximities to the Fibonacci bands/zones (Fib Zones). The following describes how the xBrat VWAP Predator is different to any standard use of Volume Weighted Average Price and uses xBrat Proprietary Behavioural logic to determine high probability long and Short signals. All of this heavy lifting and logic is done behind the scenes, keeping traders charts clean.
Long Trading Signals - Candle Coloured in Blue - There are many states with the logic to produce these signals, which are briefly described below:
1. The only standard criteria here - The price action must be above the VWAP Line
2. The Price must open below the boundary of one Fib Zone and close into the next Fib Zone
3. That Same Candle has to be an Accumulation Candle (more volume than the preceding candle and More Buyers) - This is determined with our proprietary logic coding
4. The Same signal candle also has to be higher than average volume. Again, our proprietary xBrat Logic just doesn't look back over a set number of bars, it looks at times of day and day of week, plus more to determine a true valuation of higher, lower or equal to average volume.
5. Only when these states are met, plus two more ema proximity logic, Does the xBrat VWAP predator give a Long Signal.
6. Trade Management is either set targets or indeed a simple ema cross which we provide as a ribbon on the chart to help traders. These ema's are different to entry logic. When the Ribbon turns from green to red, the trader should consider exiting the trade
Short Trading Signals - Candle Coloured in Pink - There are many states with the logic to produce these signals, which are briefly described below:
1. The only standard criteria here - The price action must be below the VWAP Line
2. The Price must open above the boundary of one Fib Zone and close into the next Fib Zone
3. That Same Candle has to be a Distribution Candle (more volume than the preceding candle and More Sellers) - This is determined with our proprietary logic coding
4. The Same signal candle also has to be higher than average volume. Again, our proprietary xBrat Logic just doesn't look back over a set number of bars, it looks at times of day and day of week, plus more to determine a true valuation of higher, lower or equal to average volume.
5. Only when these states are met, plus two more ema proximity logic, Does the xBrat VWAP predator give a Short Signal.
