A LONG-SHORT, single-instrument, pure-OHLCV TREND-CAPTURE strategy whose entry TRIGGER is a volatility-REGIME transition, not a momentum crossover — deliberately in the factory's ONE demonstrated survivor family (directional trend, per the BTC dual-timeframe winner) but with a materially different construction that avoids the dead momentum-confluence template (L62) and every reversal/carry/positioning family that keeps dying. Mechanism: volatility in crypto clusters, and a deep contraction (Bollinger-band width in its bottom percentile = a 'squeeze') reliably PRECEDES a large directional expansion. We do nothing during the squeeze, then enter in the direction of the range break when volatility releases, and ride the expansion with an ATR trailing stop. This structurally attacks the #1 killer (fee_edge): squeeze-release moves on ETH run multiple percent, so per-trade capture is an order of magnitude above the ~0.10% round-trip cost, and squeezes are occasional so turnover — and fee drag — stay low. It is NOT the cross-sectional reversal that just died (opposite sign, single-name, trend not reversion), NOT a dual-timeframe confluence clone (single timeframe, volatility trigger), NOT OI/funding/positioning driven, and needs no supplementary feed (pure OHLCV, full ETH history, data-safe).
