VWAP Pullback System Restrictive Alerts
# VWAP Pullback System
A mechanical mean-reversion indicator for futures scalping (MNQ/NQ, 5-min chart). Signals fire only when **all 5 conditions** are met simultaneously.
---
## Entry Conditions (ALL must be true)
**Long:** Price above VWAP → pulls back within X points → bullish candle close → volume below 20-SMA → within trading window
**Short:** Mirror opposite — price below VWAP, rallies back, bearish close, low volume, valid window.
### ADX Regime Filter (15-Min)
- **ADX < 25** → RANGING — signals enabled
- **ADX 25–35** → CAUTION — signals fire but lower confidence
- **ADX ≥ 35** → TRENDING — signals disabled
### Signal Grading
- **A+** — All conditions + ADX < 20 + EMA 9/21 aligned + within 5 pts of VWAP
- **A** — All conditions + ADX < 25 + EMA aligned
- **B** — All conditions + ADX < 25, no EMA alignment
- **C** — All conditions + ADX in caution zone
---
## Visuals
- VWAP (blue) with 1σ / 2σ standard deviation bands
- EMA 9/21 cloud (green = bullish, red = bearish)
- Signal arrows with grade labels (A+, A, B, C)
- Entry/stop/target dashed lines (auto-cleanup after 20 bars)
- Trading window background shading (green = valid, red = lunch chop zone)
- Volume-based bar coloring
## Dashboard (Top Right)
- Market regime + ADX value
- Live 5-condition checklist — watch setups build before they trigger
- Risk levels: stop, targets, R:R ratio, signal grade
- Daily signal counter

## ⚠️ Important: TPs and SLs Are Loose Targets
The stop loss and target levels shown on the chart (VWAP ± buffer, 1σ/2σ bands) are **reference levels, not hard exits.** They give you a framework, but you should adjust based on the price action leading into the signal. A clean pullback on declining volume into a key level deserves a tighter stop and more ambitious target. A choppy, indecisive setup warrants a wider stop or a quicker exit at T1. Use the levels as a starting point — your read on context and momentum should determine the actual trade management.
