IDEA: AUTO VIDEO SCOUT — evaluate this trading strategy video for the swarm: VIDEO: "ICT Silver Bullet Strategy Backtest: Does it Really Work?" by SMC Dan — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yp0Xm_xUMpA (duration 1931s, 45586 views; found via search 'ICT silver bullet strategy backtest'). TASK FOR MERLIN: From the title, channel and your knowledge of this trader/method, identify the strategy being taught. Judge it for OUR use: we scalp fast (15s-7m charts), long or short, targets set by E8 sacred geometry BEFORE entry. State what the method gets right, where it is weak, and exactly how E8 node/rhythm logic would improve on it. Verdict PROMISING only if a concrete, testable edge exists that we can code into the Replay Bench. **SAME-WINDOW EFFECT:** The ICT Silver Bullet strategy, as described in the video title and description, lacks specific mechanical rules for entry, exit, or risk management. Without a codifiable trigger, it would have no measurable effect on the current trade wind Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK. Part of the E8 Intelligence Research series.
