Execution Logic

  • 1
    Identify price 2 Standard Deviations from VWAP.
  • 2
    Watch for volume divergence on the 5-minute chart.
  • 3
    Exit on the first touch of the Upper/Lower Deviation Band.
  • 4
    Re-enter only on a VWAP cross.

Why it works

Keeps day traders anchored to volume-weighted realities, preventing 'chasing' in high-deviation zones.
