These are actual results from the current definitions. They do not settle whether every trader’s interpretation of a setup works.
Heavy aggression with little price progress sounds compelling. Under our first definition, the 15-minute result is statistically inconclusive.

The combined rule is highly selective. Its gross expectancy is negative in all three periods; the samples are too small for a reliable conclusion.
Binance BTCUSDT perpetuals, July 2022–June 2023, plus one warmup day. 366 days loaded; 7 quarantined; 358 analysis days eligible. 1,384,420,468 trades passed the dataset’s day-level gates, including warmup. Event occurrences overlap and are not independent samples. These forward-return studies use a cost scenario, not simulated fills.
No NQ data has been tested here. A screenshot can document an idea; reconstructing NQ order flow requires the relevant contract’s historical trade data.
That’s the starting point. When a setup catches your eye, keep the screenshot and your own explanation. You don’t need to learn another platform.
“NQ swept London low. Sellers kept hitting the bid, but price stopped going lower. Then delta flipped.”Illustrative observation—not a tested result

In your words: what stood out, why it mattered, and whether you took it or passed.
Entry, stop and exit if there was a trade. Keep what you knew at entry separate from what happened later.
Start with 20–50 examples, including losing and skipped setups. We’ll review them together before deciding what to formalize. This public page does not collect or upload private observations.
Keep the original idea → define a measurable claim → test historical occurrences → compare against simple baselines and costs → check unseen periods.
An AI can help organize and formalize the idea. The deterministic engine calculates the results. Trading automation comes only after the evidence survives.
