State what the method gets right, where it is weak, and exactly how E8 node/rhythm logic would improve on it. Verdict PROMISING only if a concrete, testable edge exists that we can code into the Replay Bench. SAME-WINDOW EFFECT: No trades would have been directly affected because the video provides no mechanical entry/exit rules — it's a general framework pitch, not a codifiable strategy.
