Pros and cons

Pros

  • Built in, no install
  • TradingView publishes the exact formula: cumulative typical price x volume / cumulative volume

Cons

  • TradingView notes it lags, like a moving average
  • Most useful intraday; its help page frames it around intraday charts

From TradingView’s help page (source). Not from trading tests.
