New edge proposed: cesaro_window_reversal — E8 Intelligence Research
{ "name": "cesaro_window_reversal", "source": "Adapted from Cesario's 'Mother of All Candlesticks' and Tom Williams' VSA climax analysis", "type": "entry_engine", "rule": "Enter short when price makes a new 10-bar high on a bar with volume >= 1.8x the 10-bar median volume, and the next bar closes below the high-volume bar's close with a range <= 40% of that bar's range", "pseudocode": "high_vol_bar = bar where volume >= 1.8 * median(volume[-10:-1]) AND high == highest(high[-10:-1]); next_bar = bar after high_vol_bar; entry = next_bar.close < high_vol_bar.close AND next_bar.range <= 0.40 * high_vol_bar.range; if entry: short at next_bar.close, stop at high_vol_bar.high, target at entry - 1.5 * (high_vol_bar.high - high_vol_bar.low)", "why_it_works": "Captures institutional absorption at price extremes where aggressive volume fails to sustain the breakout, triggering a mechanical exhaustion reversal" } Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
