Understand the trigger
What is Through VWAP alert?
Through VWAP highlights price rushing through the volume-weighted average price with a candle described as three times bigger than the recent candles. The alert offers above and below options. Its large-candle condition distinguishes it from the ordinary Crossing Above or Crossing Below VWAP options. ChartsWatcher calculates the event during regular and extended hours, but the help does not define the precise recent-candle comparison window.
An illustrative example
Through VWAP alert in practice
Imagine several small candles near VWAP followed by a visibly larger candle moving through the line. This illustrates the event’s intended shape. The documented size condition is three times the recent candles; the example does not assume whether the internal comparison uses bodies, ranges, or a particular number of prior candles.
Make it part of your workflow
Catch the event. Keep the context.
Use ChartsWatcher to separate larger, faster-looking VWAP transitions from routine crossings around the line. Open the symbol’s chart, locate VWAP, and compare the triggering candle with the nearby sequence and volume. Reviewing both ordinary crossing alerts and Through VWAP events can reveal which reference transitions also meet the additional candle-size condition.
