StockSharp.Strategies.0041_Vol_Adjusted_MA

Volatility Adjusted Moving Average

This technique modifies a moving average band by a multiple of ATR. When price moves beyond the adjusted band, it indicates an accelerated trend.

Long trades are opened above the upper band, shorts below the lower band. A cross back through the baseline moving average closes the position.

Because the bands expand with volatility, stops adapt to market conditions.
