Expected behavior
Patient — CHoCH signals are sparse by design. The strategy sits flat for long stretches and then catches the early bar of a regime change.
Trend-friendly equity curve — clean in directional regimes, whipsaws in chop. The 10/3.0 default fires frequently on intraday timeframes and less often on daily candles.
