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.
Cleaner than vanilla SuperTrend — the volume filter cuts the low-conviction flips that fire in chop. Fewer trades, smoother equity curve, occasional missed early-trend entries when volume lags price.
