[ ABOUT ]

Combines two primitives — `find_breakout` for directional price action and `detect_volume_spike` for unusual volume — to filter for breakouts where volume exceeds 2× the rolling average. Returns a list of dictionaries containing the coin identifier and breakout direction, filtering out all consolidating or low-volume moves.

Volume-confirmed breakouts are considered significantly more reliable than price-only breakouts because large volume indicates institutional participation rather than thin-market moves. This scanner is best run on daily closes, where one full day's volume provides a clean signal; intraday volume data introduces more noise due to time-of-day patterns.

[ USAGE EXAMPLE ]

example.py

breakouts = scan_vol_breakout(coin_list)
# → [{"coin": "SOL", "dir": "bullish_breakout"}, ...]
