What is VWAP acts as resistance?
This alert identifies VWAP acting as resistance when price comes toward it from below. The help description states that the detection is based on one-minute candles. Its focus is the price response at VWAP, unlike a simple crossing alert or a filter measuring distance from the line. ChartsWatcher lists calculations during premarket, regular market, and postmarket; the event does not by itself establish lasting resistance.
