Volman grade — KILLED 2026-07-31. Historical test on 7,471 trades returned the spread
INVERTED (PROPER −0.245R vs REST −0.163R, t=−3.35), negative in 5 of 6 years. Shown for the
record only; it predicts nothing. Definitions below.
PROPER = tight buildup pressed against the barrier · TEASE = buildup but away from it ·
FALSE = no buildup, price arrived from a swing. Squeeze and Gap are in ATRs.
Across all 40 signals so far: 4 PROPER, 18 TEASE, 18 FALSE — Volman would decline 90% of what
this scan produces. That distribution is a fact about the scan and holds regardless of outcomes.
Same run put the scan itself at −0.186R/trade over 7,471 trades WITH survivorship flattering it.
Body / Close pos / RVol = Brooks breakout-quality metrics, now DEMOTED to secondary (Trading Price Action: Ranges, ch.2).
RECORDED ONLY — they filter nothing. Pre-registered thresholds body ≥0.60, close ≥0.70,
rvol ≥1.5; adjudicated at 50 closed trades. First read on n=13 was underpowered and three of
four pointed the wrong way.
