SC Support,

Using the original VWAP study on a 1 minute bar chart for ES that spans both the Regular and Evening sessions.

Is there a way to have the VWAP calculation reset at the beginning of the regular trading hours (9:30 EST) of each trading day? This would be similar to the concept of beginning a new TPO/Volume profile at the start of each Regular session.

I tried these settings but they did not work.
Time Period Type: Minutes
Time Period Length: 405 (6.75 hours from 9:30 - 16:15 EST)
Start Date-Time: 4/8/2015 09:30

I also looked at VWAP-Rolling but wasn't able to make it work. Any guidance you can offer would be much appreciated. Thank you.

You just need to set the Intraday chart Session Times to use a single session that starts at 09:30:

And set the Time Period Length and Type study inputs to 1 Day.

The study will only reset once each day.

SC Support,

Thanks for the quick response. That's my issue - I want to see price action on the chart prior to the 09:30 session start. However, I only want the VWAP to begin calculations at 09:30. Is there any way to accomplish both these objectives. Appreciate your help.

If I understand correctly, you want the regular vwap to appear on a globex session.

If this is the case, you can try to do that we two charts.
chart#1: globex or day session with day+evening session (for ex 18:00 - 17:00)
chart#2: regular session (for ex 09:30 - 16:15)
put a daily vwap on chart #2.
overlay the chart#2 vwap on chart #1.

be sure in the overlay to use: bar time containing match. I would also fill blanks with last value to yes.
enclosed-by screenshots and chartbook. I used my ECIVwap, but you can do that with the native sierra vwap that works great and gives the same results for those vwaps.
