Description
The Volume Weighted MACD is a modified version of MACD study. It calculates volume-averaged Close price on two periods: longer and shorter ones. First average is called "slow" and the second is called "fast"; Volume Weighted MACD is equal to the difference between these two values. The main plot is accompanied with its EMA and a histogram showing the difference between these two values (EMA is subtracted from the Volume weighted MACD).
It is considered an overbought position when histogram values switch from negative to positive, while switching from positive to negative indicates an oversold position.
