VWMA - Volume Weighted Moving Average
The Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) is used for analyzing volume by tracking price-volume and identifying trends. It is similar to the Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), but incorporates volume data to provide a weighted average over any period of time, making it useful for identifying trends and weighted volume.
