Quant Labs Edge Filter (Community Edition)

A market-structure filter designed to identify when no real edge exists.
Edge Filter evaluates price location relative to structure to define market posture — long bias, short bias, or stand aside. It does not generate trade signals and is intentionally designed to reduce overtrading.
Clear Posture States
Near Highs — Short Bias
Near Lows — Long Bias
No Edge — Stand Aside
When edge is absent, patience is the strategy.
Why It Stands Out
Most indicators encourage action.
Edge Filter encourages restraint.
Its purpose is to protect capital, attention, and decision quality by filtering out low-quality environments.
Community Edition
This version publishes the core logic openly for transparency and education.
Private access versions may exist for traders seeking continuity and stewardship.
Bottom Line
Trade less.
Trade better.
Wait for edge.
