What Is a “Volume-Weighted Time-Weighted Average Price” (VWTWAP) and Its Advantage?
A VWTWAP is an advanced average price calculation that combines the time-weighting of a TWAP with the volume-weighting of a VWAP. Its advantage is that it provides a benchmark that is both highly resistant to momentary price manipulation (due to time-weighting) and accurately reflective of the true market transaction value (due to volume-weighting).
This makes it an extremely robust price for high-value derivative settlements.
