Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) The Holy Grail for Day Trading Systems

This paper examines a VWAP-based day trading strategy using QQQ and TQQQ from January 2018 to September 2023. It demonstrates how this strategy significantly outperforms the passive buy-and-hold approach, turning a $25,000 investment into $192,656 with QQQ and $2,085,417 with TQQQ. The strategy shows robust returns with lower risk, illustrating VWAP’s effectiveness in diverse market conditions.
