📌 Strategy Title
Volatility Flow X | Dual Trend Strategy [VWMA+SMA+ADX+ATR Cloud]

🧾 Description
🚀 Strategy Overview
Volatility Flow X is a dual-directional trading strategy that combines Volume-Weighted MA (VWMA) for momentum, Simple MA (SMA) for trend direction, ADX for trend strength filtering, and ATR-based volatility cloud for dynamic support/resistance zones.

It is designed specifically for high-volatility assets like BTC/USD on intraday timeframes such as 15 min, 30 min, and 1 hour — offering both breakout and trend-following opportunities.
