Vicky VWAP
The Anchor
⚓ Day Trader 📅 44 years old (Born 1982)"VWAP is where institutions traded. When price returns there, I trade with them."
Naval officer aesthetic—crisp, disciplined, anchored. Perfect posture. Ship's anchor on desk. Navy blue is her only color.

⚙️ Trading Strategy
Buy 0.5% below VWAP, exit at VWAP
VWAP acts as a magnet. When price deviates 0.5% below VWAP, Vicky buys the bounce, exiting when price returns to VWAP.
🎯 Best Suited For
Liquid, high-volume institutional stocks
"Institutions don't lie. VWAP is their truth."
📜 Why This Strategy Works
VWAP is where institutions actually traded. When price dips below, institutions see it as cheap relative to the day's average.
