Overview:
Vwapper Algo is a fully automated trading solution based on a volume weighted volatility driven standard deviation algorithm. The strategy uses statistical measures to identify key support and resistance levels around volume weighted prices. Price action at these key levels create reversal signals for both mean reversion and trend continuation setups. The software includes all the components necessary for trade setups, order execution, filter conditions, and trade and risk management. The ability to conduct extensive backtesting and performance analysis allows for robust strategy development and optimization. Once your strategy is fine tuned, the software robotically trades your strategy for you, removing the risk of human error and emotions and ensuring that your strategy is executed flawlessly.

Some traders struggle with indecision and fear. By letting the algo mechanically perform the order execution, you can focus on optimizing all the algo settings to maximize profitability and then trade with confidence.
