LAB #5031 NEUTRAL: TG AUTO: New edge proposed: tom_demark_sequential_9_countdown_reversal — E8 Intelligence Research

IDEA: AUTO-FORWARDED from the Telegram/breakthrough stream (#1344911, division=research, agent=gtx_scout): { "name": "tom_demark_sequential_9_countdown_reversal", "source": "Tom DeMark (The New Science of Technical Analysis, DeMark on Day Trading Options)", "type": "entry_engine", "rule": "Enter long when a completed TD Sequential buy setup (9 consecutive closes below the close 4 bars earlier) is followed by a TD Countdown 13 (13 closes each <= low 2 bars earlier, not requiring consecutiveness but each bar's low < low[2]); mirror for shorts, entries taken on close of the 9th or 13th bar.", "pseudocode": "setup = 0; count = 0\nfor i:\n if close[i] < close[i-4]: setup += 1 else setup = 0\n if setup == 9: arm = True\n if arm and low[i] < low[i-2]: count += 1\n if count == 13: signal = 1 SAME-WINDOW EFFECT: Nothing in the listed window would have changed. TD Sequential 9/Countdown 13 is a multi-bar exhaustion structure — the setup alone requires 9 consecutive closes vs close[4 Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
