The textbook setup
The course's #SignatureTrade has three moves: a wedge, an induction past the high or low, and the reversal that takes the stops the crowd just placed. The course reads it as Problem, Reaction, Solution. The sketch is a drawing of the idea. The chart below it is the real thing.
1 Problem (wedge) · 2 Reaction (induction, the stop hunt) · 3 Solution (reversal). Textbook sketch, not market data.
The live bot automates moves 2 and 3. For move 1 it checks that yesterday consolidated; it does not read a wedge. The method is taught on the Signature Trade page and the ideas behind it on stop hunts and liquidity sweeps. This page records one case.
