Breakout Algorithms

The VABO Algorithm trades breakouts only when confirmed by significant volume expansion. This filter eliminates many false breakouts that occur on low volume and fail to follow through.

The Thrust Breakout Algorithm identifies and trades aggressive momentum thrusts —sudden, powerful price movements that break through resistance or support with conviction. Unlike gradual breakouts, thrusts represent urgent buying or selling pressure that often leads to continuation.

The IBOB Algorithm identifies two powerful candlestick patterns: Inside Bars (compression) and Outside Bars (expansion). These patterns represent fundamentally different market states and require different trading approaches.

The Fractal Breakout Algorithm uses Williams Fractals to identify significant swing highs and lows, then trades breakouts of these structural levels. Fractals mark turning points in price action and provide objective support/resistance levels.

The Narrow Range Breakout Algorithm (NRBOAlgo) exploits one of the most reliable patterns in technical analysis: volatility compression leads to volatility expansion. When a market forms its narrowest range in N periods (NR4 = 4 periods, NR7 = 7 periods), it signals pending explosive movement.
