LAB #1202 NEUTRAL: VIDEO SCOUT: ICT Smart Money Concepts Explained: Liquidity, FVG & Order Blocks — E8 Intelligence Research
IDEA: AUTO VIDEO SCOUT — evaluate this trading strategy video for the swarm: VIDEO: "ICT Smart Money Concepts Explained: Liquidity, FVG & Order Blocks" by Com Lucro Trader — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrYW_qzWmrg (duration 5750s, 15398 views; found via search 'smart money concepts order block strategy'). 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:** No trades would have been affected. The video describes a conceptual framework (liquidity sweeps, FVG, order blocks) with no mechanical entry/exit rules. Our current live trades are all triggered by E8's sacred geometry Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK. Part of the E8 Intelligence Research series. Platform: e8intelligence.com
