Bollinger Volatility Breakout (Python)

The Bollinger Volatility Breakout strategy is built around Bollinger Bands breakout with volatility confirmation. Signals trigger when Bollinger confirms breakout opportunities on intraday (5m) data. This makes the method suitable for active traders. Stops rely on ATR multiples and factors like BollingerPeriod, BollingerDeviation. Adjust these defaults to balance risk and reward.
