THE TRADING GYM

No new generator and no new rule: every rep calls its source module's own generator, answer key, question, grading and reveal. Scored the same way — confidence, Brier, session row, history — with the score and Brier broken out per module and the weakest one named.

Two rep types. The ruler is defined before rep one and one click away after.

The rule: two or more touches, a close through the level, then a later close back on the original side by more than 0.10 M. Two closes beyond with no close back is acceptance; fewer than two touches is nobody home. The three cases come up a third each.

The rule: two consecutive closes beyond the level by more than 0.10 M with no close back inside is acceptance; a close through then a close back on the original side is rejection; one close through, or wicks either way, is undecided. The three cases come up a third each.

The rule: within 0.25 M is at fair; beyond 0.5 M with the VWAP moving under 0.05 M a bar over the last 12 bars is stretched; beyond 0.5 M with the VWAP moving 0.05 M a bar or more toward price is trending. Between 0.25 and 0.5 M is ambiguous by design and scores as at fair. The three answers come up a third each.

The rule: the value area is the 70% of the session's volume around the POC, counted in rows of 0.1 M; the last close above VAH is above value, below VAL is below, between them inside. The three answers come up a third each.

The rule: the profile is the leg's bars only, its value area the 70% of the leg's volume around its POC in rows of 0.1 M; the last close above VAH is premium, below VAL discount, between them middle. The three answers come up a third each; the leg's length, height and direction, the bars since it ended and the bar count carry none of them.

The rule: a transition moves the value area higher when VAL and VAH both rise; up is three of the four transitions higher and the fifth VAL above the first POC, down the mirror, balance neither. The three answers come up a third each; the extremes carry nothing the value areas do not, and a quarter or more of the trend reps hold a session whose high or low steps against the migration.

The rule: the last close's retracement of the leg, 0 at the swing that ended it, 1 at the swing that started it. Under 0.62 is short of the pocket; 0.62 to 0.705 inclusive is in it; beyond 0.886 is past the 886, the idea dead. Between 0.705 and 0.886 is past the pocket but alive and scores as short. The three answers come up a third each; the leg's length, the bar counts and the pocket's place on the screen carry nothing.

The rule: a swing is a bar higher (or lower) than one bar on each side; inside the last 15 bars, the last three swing highs and the last three swing lows must each step the same way. Higher and higher is UP, lower and lower is DOWN, anything else is NONE. The three cases come up a third each.

The rule: a touch is a bar whose range includes the level, one per visit; a break-and-reclaim is a close through by more than 0.10 M then a close back. Fresh is one touch never broken, tested two or three never broken, burned four or more or broken once. The three answers come up a third each; nothing but the circles and the break mark carries them.

The rule: the net move over the last 10 bars divided by the path those bars travelled, close to close, both in M. 0.6 or more is a leg, 0.3 or less is churn, and the band between is in-between by design. The three answers come up a third each; the colours of the bars carry none of them.

The rule: under 0.25 M is no gap; 0.5 M or more is an event, gap to fill when the first five bars retraced half the gap or more, gap and go when they extended or held. Between 0.25 and 0.5 M is ambiguous by design and scores as no gap. The three answers come up a third each; the gap size carries nothing between fill and go.

The rule: the first close more than 0.10 M beyond an edge is the vote; a later close more than 0.10 M back inside that edge is the failure; no close beyond the margin is inside. Only closes count. The three cases come up a third each.

The rule: stacked when the aggressors' delta share in the extreme third of the bar's rows is 0.30 or more (65% of the volume there); stacked and closed in the far half is absorption, stacked and closed in the near quarter is effort paid, not stacked is nothing. The three answers come up a third each, half at a top and half at a bottom. The candle's shape is drawn without looking at the case; only the ladder and the close carry it.

The rule: compression when the rolling envelope over the last third of the window is at most half the loud part before it; a failed break when a level with two touches was pushed through by more than 0.30 M without acceptance and the last close is back inside; both when both; neither otherwise, an expanding range included. The level is the coil's flat edge or the level that failed; the trigger a close through it by more than 0.10 M. Translate 8, un-translate 6, trigger 6 of the twenty; the mechanisms at 35 / 30 / 10 / 25, trigger answers a third each; the pattern name is revealed after the answer, never before.

The rule and its sources: two touches make a level here, a pierce is any trade beyond the zone, the close back through is the signal, a later reclaim cancels it.

The rule: the stop's distance is at least 1.5 × the median range of the last 12 bars, and it sits beyond the last completed swing. Both, or the doji takes it.

The rule: the band is inside noise on a chart when its height is less than 1.0 M for that chart. Same ten points, two rulers. The four cases come up a quarter each.

The rule: the target sits inside the first half of the room to the nearest level on its side of the entry. Past the level, or in the far half, and the trade doesn't exist at that target.

The rule: the stop is the farther of 0.10 M beyond the last completed swing and 1.5 × the median range of the last 12 bars; the target is half the room to the nearest level on the trade's side; R:R is target over stop, and the bracket clears at 1.5. Half the reps clear; half the misses sit at 1.20–1.49. The reveal draws both legs, does the arithmetic, then shows the next 20 bars.

The rule: dead when fewer than four of the twenty sessions were quieter than today (today's M under the fourth-smallest), hot when fewer than four were faster (over the fourth-largest), normal otherwise. The three cases come up a third each.

The rule: structure, efficiency, VWAP and value each back the proposed side, back the other side, or back neither (which counts as disagreeing too). Zero or one against is clear, two is mixed, three or four is against. The three answers come up a third each; no single read's state predicts the count.
