I’ve added six lines to this indicator. The principal is the VWAP Daily which is the calculation based on the intra-day values. All the other five lines you can set the period of the calculation, so it can be less or greater than the intra-day period.

Thanks for downloading this code. I will be waiting for your comments, vote and rating.
