StockSharp.Strategies.0051_Volume_Weighted_Price_Breakout

Volume Weighted Price Breakout (C# Version)

This strategy combines a moving average with a volume‑weighted moving average (VWMA). When price trades above the VWMA, it suggests buyers are dominant. A breakout occurs when price crosses the VWMA from the opposite side.

Trades align with the VWMA direction and use the simple moving average as a higher‑level trend filter. Exits occur when price reverses relative to the moving average.

The goal is to capture breakouts supported by volume.
