Moving Average - Volume Weighted
This study calculates and displays a Volume Weighted Moving Average of the data specified by the Input Data Input.
Let \(X\) be a random variable denoting the Input Data, let \(X_i\) be the value of the Input Data at Index \(i\), and let \(V_i\) be the Volume at Index \(i\). Let the Input Length be denoted as \(n\). The Moving Average - Volume Weighted at Index \(t\) for the given Inputs is denoted as \(VWMA_t(X,n)\), and we compute it for \(t \geq n\) as follows.
\(\displaystyle{VWMA_t(X,n) = \left. \left(\sum_{i=t-n+1}^tX_iV_i\right) \middle/ \sum_{i=t-n+1}^tV_i\right.}\)For an explanation of the Sigma (\(\Sigma\)) notation for summation, refer to our description here.
