VFI strategy [based on VFI indicator published by UTS]

Script from: TradingViewSwingTrend followingVolume

The VFI strategy employs the Volume Flow Indicator (VFI), adding a buy line and a sell line for optimization. On an hourly SPY chart, a buy signal triggers when the EMA 50 is above the EMA 200 and VFI crosses above -4. An exit is signalled when VFI descends through 5. Stop loss is initially 5% but can be adjusted in the settings window. This customizable approach is detailed at the author’s website.
