What is Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)?

The running total of delta over a session or another chosen period. Its value depends on where it starts (its anchor).

In context

Whenever you show or share a CVD chart, write the anchor on it, for example "CVD anchored: NY open 08:20 ET". Without the anchor, a CVD claim cannot be checked.
