Median Price

 

Introduction
The Median Price indicator is simply the midpoint of each day's price. The Typical Price and Weighted Close are similar indicators.

The Median Price indicator provides a simple, single-line chart of the day's "average price." This average price is useful when you want a simpler view of prices.
