This evaluation analyzes a trading strategy for breakout scanning in scalp trading, suggesting improvements based on E8 node logic.
IDEA: AUTO VIDEO SCOUT — evaluate this trading strategy video for the swarm: VIDEO: "How To Create A Winning Finviz Breakout Scanner | Find Stocks Before They Breakout" by TC Trading — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjEDxF3PViY (duration 528s, 65567 views; found via search 'OTC pump and dump short squeeze pattern trading'). 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:** Over the current trade window, this breakout scanner would have missed all 9 live trades because it operates on 5m-1h timeframes with 20-bar lookbacks and 2:1 R:R, while our scalps fire on 15s-7m charts Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
