IDEA: AUTO VIDEO SCOUT — evaluate this trading strategy video for the swarm: VIDEO: "Understanding Fair Value Gaps (FVG) - ICT Concepts" by TTrades — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVUDpCyvxfQ (duration 596s, 590715 views; found via search 'ICT fair value gap FVG entry model'). TASK FOR MERLIN: From the title, channel and your knowledge of this trader/method, identify the strategy being taught.
