Currently Playing: How Anchored VWAP Warns Me a HUGE Move Is Coming

In this video, we're looking at one of my favorite ways to use Anchored VWAP to identify major market reversals and potentially recognize when the market is setting up for a much larger move. Anchored VWAP isn't just another line on a chart. It allows us to track the volume-weighted average price of market participants from an important point in a trend. That gives us a powerful way to think about market positioning. If buyers have been controlling an uptrend, where is their average positioning? If sellers have been controlling a downtrend, where are they positioned? And most importantly: What happens when price comes back and challenges that positioning? That's where Anchored VWAP gets especially interesting. If a trend is going to remain healthy, there are certain moments where the participants supporting that trend may need to react. Buyers may need to defend their positioning to maintain an uptrend. Sellers may need to defend their positioning to maintain a downtrend. When they successfully defend those areas, we may see the trend continue. But when that positioning begins to fail and the opposing side takes control, it can provide important context for a much larger reversal. In this video, we'll cover: • What Anchored VWAP actually represents • Using AVWAP to understand average market positioning • How I determine whether buyers or sellers appear to be in control • Where I anchor VWAP and why • How healthy trends interact with Anchored VWAP • Identifying areas where trend participants may need to react • What AVWAP support can tell us about an uptrend • What AVWAP resistance can tell us about a downtrend • How failed AVWAP defenses can signal changing market control • Identifying potential major market reversals • Recognizing conditions that can precede large intraday moves • Using multiple Anchored VWAPs to understand market positioning • Real trade examples showing these concepts in action The key isn't simply: “Price touched VWAP, so buy.” Or: “Price broke VWAP, so sell.” We're trying to understand the positioning and psychology behind the trend. Anchored VWAP gives us a reference for where participants are positioned on a volume-weighted basis. When price challenges that positioning, we can watch how the market responds. Do the participants supporting the trend defend their positioning? Or does that defense fail and allow the opposing side to take control? Those moments can give us valuable information about whether the existing trend remains intact or whether the market may be transitioning into something much larger. Instead of trying to predict every market turn, we're identifying the locations where the market may be forced to reveal who's actually in control. That's where some of my favorite Anchored VWAP setups develop. 💬 FREE DISCORD COMMUNITY Join our FREE Discord where we share: • Daily levels • Trade ideas • Educational content • Trade reviews • A community of traders focused on improving together The Discord link can be found in my bio. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER This video is for educational and entertainment purposes only and should not be considered financial advice.
