SteelyOpenEdge is built around the 1-minute timeframe to capture the structure of the New York open in real time — where the explosive first wave of the session is visible bar-by-bar rather than obscured inside a single 5-minute candle.
The system centers on a session-anchored VWAP with ±1σ and ±2σ statistical bands as the primary structural reference, combined with a cumulative session delta tracker and a 5-factor session bias engine that classifies market conditions across 12 possible states.
A multi-layer signal engine produces tiered 1–4 scored conditions, with live rescoring on each tick. Supporting modules include three-push exhaustion pattern detection, institutional pattern recognition (sweeps, reclaims, and similar conditions), pre-open accumulation range tracking, and a 6-priority trade coaching guidance system.
SteelyOpenEdge communicates with SteelyAlphaFlow via the SteelyIndicatorBridge shared bridge — writing session bias and signal state data that AlphaFlow can incorporate into its scoring engine for cross-indicator confluence analysis when both are active on the same NT8 instance.
