VWAP and EMA Pullback Strategy with ADX Filters and ATR Targets

Summary

This intraday strategy looks for long and short pullbacks within directional trends. It defines bullish conditions with price above VWAP, a fast EMA above a slow EMA, and positive directional movement leading; bearish conditions reverse those relationships. A pullback toward VWAP must then reclaim or reject VWAP and the fast EMA, with RSI confirmation. An ADX threshold filters for trend strength, and a configured session limits when signals can occur.

For each entry, the script places a stop beyond VWAP or the slow EMA by an ATR-based distance. It sets two reward targets from that risk distance and allocates half the position to each target. A chart table displays the latest signal and its calculated levels. The description suggests using intraday charts and tuning session and ADX settings, but provides no reported strategy-test results or evidence that the parameters generalize across markets. VWAP and session behavior depend on the instrument, chart interval, and market hours, and the code offers no broader validation of its risk or execution assumptions.

Key ideas

• VWAP, fast and slow EMAs, and directional movement define the bullish or bearish trend context.
• Entries require a VWAP-area pullback, a reclaim or rejection, RSI confirmation, sufficient ADX, and an active session.
• Stops use an ATR multiple beyond VWAP or the slow EMA, with two risk-based profit targets splitting the position.
• The signal table reports the latest setup and its entry, stop, targets, and reward-to-risk values.
• The document gives usage suggestions but no measured performance or evidence of parameter robustness.
