VWAP Stochastic Divergence

The VWAP Stochastic Divergence strategy is built around combining VWAP with ADX trend strength indicator.

Testing indicates an average annual return of about 79%. It performs best in the stocks market.

Signals trigger when Stochastic confirms divergence setups on intraday (5m) data. This makes the method suitable for active traders.

Stops rely on ATR multiples and factors like AdxPeriod, AdxThreshold. Adjust these defaults to balance risk and reward.
