NR7 Volatility Contraction Breakout
Crabel's narrowest range of sevenNR7 means today's daily range is smaller than every one of the previous six. An objective, binary marker of maximum compression.
Rules you can check before you trade them.
Every strategy carries its exact rules, an annotated chart of the setup, the research behind why it should work at all — and the conditions under which you should not take it.

Evidence: StrongProfessional
Local-Hours Currency Momentum
the time-of-day tiltFX returns carry a documented time-of-day pattern: currencies tend to depreciate during their own local trading hours and appreciate during foreign hours.
Evidence: StrongIntermediate
Daily-Momentum-Gated Pullback
documented edge, intraday executionThe edge comes from daily momentum, which has the strongest evidence behind it in FX. The M15 chart is execution only — a way to get a better price inside a permission that has already been granted.
Evidence: ModerateProfessional
Volatility-Normalised Momentum
momentum in units of its own noiseRaw momentum is a trap: a fixed percentage move is enormous in a quiet market and entirely ordinary in a volatile one. A fixed threshold has no idea which regime it is in.

Previous-Session High / Low Sweep
liquidity taken, then reversalMark the previous session's high and low. Stop orders rest just above and just below those two levels.
Evidence: ModerateIntermediate
Equal Highs / Lows Liquidity Run
the pool you can seeWhen two or three highs form at almost the same price, a visible pool of liquidity builds above them — the stop of everyone who sold there, plus every breakout buy order.
Evidence: ModerateIntermediate
Break of Structure Continuation
BOS, then a higher lowA break of structure is a candle that closes above the previous swing high, in an uptrend. It is a mechanical definition of 'the trend continued' — no more and no less than that.
Evidence: ModerateIntermediate
Change of Character Reversal
CHoCH, then a lower highA change of character is the first time a trend's own structure fails. In an uptrend: a candle closes below the last higher low.

Liquidity Sweep → Market Structure Shift
the full sequenceThe full validated sequence: liquidity taken → displacement → break of structure → retracement → confirmation.
Evidence: WeakIntermediate
Fair Value Gap Fill
the thin patch a fast move leaves behindThree consecutive candles where the first bar's high sits below the third bar's low leave a band of prices that barely traded. Price moved through it too quickly for an auction to happen.
What the evidence rating means
Strong
The mechanism has peer-reviewed, FX-specific research behind it.
Moderate
The mechanism is sound, but at least one step of it is untested.
Weak
Practitioner literature only — no published research supports the mechanism.
It rates the mechanism — whether there is published research explaining why the market should behave this way. It does not rate profit. Strong does not mean the trade will work. None of these have been run on our own account, and no page here shows a backtest figure.
What the level means
Beginner
One instrument, one timeframe, every rule visible on the chart.
Intermediate
Several conditions have to line up, and execution starts to matter.
Professional
Needs an outside data feed, a basket, real order flow, or an unusual tolerance for lumpy losses.
The level describes what it takes to run the strategy, not how well it works. Several Beginner pages are better evidenced than several Professional ones — a basket carry trade is Professional because it needs eight currencies and a swap table, not because it is cleverer than buying a pullback.

- Nothing here has been run on a live account by us yet. Every card says so, and the score has a band for it that is currently zero.

Trading carries risk and most retail accounts lose money. Nothing in this library is financial advice or a recommendation to trade. The charts are illustrations of the rules on constructed candles — they are not records of trades and not backtests.
