VWAP Reversion

VWAP Reversion strategy that trades on deviations from Volume Weighted Average Price

Testing indicates an average annual return of about 127%. It performs best in the stocks market.

VWAP Reversion trades deviations from the volume-weighted average price. If price strays too far above or below VWAP, the strategy fades the move and exits on a snap back.

Because VWAP reflects typical transaction levels, extreme deviations often lure price back toward it. Some traders combine this signal with intraday trend filters for higher probability.
