SHADOW ONLY
How the setup is identified
Fades moves showing exhaustion in order flow, using tick-level information rather than bar structure.
Status and evidence
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Engine ID | GOLD-EXHAUST-FADE |
| Family | Gold specialist |
| Status | Shadow only — records, never trades |
Fades exhausted moves. Also tick-stream dependent and unmeasurable in replay.
What we learned
Shadow-only and, like GOLD-FLOW-RIDER, tick-stream dependent and therefore unmeasurable in replay.
Two of the six gold specialists being unmeasurable in backtest is a real limitation of our testing infrastructure rather than a property of the strategies. It is recorded here because a reader comparing our backtest coverage against our strategy count deserves to know which cells are empty and why.
