+Let me check our explicit verification against the original system design and identify any biases or misalignments.
+
+
+
+ORIGINAL CORE SYSTEM:
+```
+1. Basic Elements:
+- VWAP + 2SD bands
+- ATR for position sizing
+- ES 15m primary, BTC 15m secondary
+
+2. Simple Signal:
+- Price touches 2SD
+- Rejection occurs
+- No other conditions needed
+
+3. Position Size:
+Position = Account Risk / ATR
+
+4. Management:
+- Exit at VWAP or pattern break
+```
+
+IDENTIFIED MISALIGNMENTS/BIASES:
+
+1. Over-Specification:
+```
+Removed:
+- "At least 10 bars since last band touch"
+- "Closes in upper/lower 50% of range"
+- Specific wick requirements
+```
+
+2. Added Complexity:
+```
+Removed:
+- Multiple validation layers
+- Excessive disqualifiers
+- Detailed space checks
+```
+
+Let me provide a bias-free, aligned version:
+
+
+
+# 2SD VWAP Trading System Checklist
+
+## Setup Process
+- [ ] Open TradingView
+- [ ] Create two charts:
+    - ES1! 15-minute
+    - BTC/USDT 15-minute
+- [ ] Add indicators:
+    - VWAP (standard)
+    - 2SD bands
+    - ATR (14)
+
+## Pattern Verification
+
+### LONG Setup
+1. Band Touch:
+- [ ] Price touches/crosses lower band
+- [ ] Clean, single move to band
+
+2. Rejection:
+- [ ] Candle closes back above band
+- [ ] Clear reversal visible
+
+3. Target Space:
+- [ ] VWAP visible above
+- [ ] Clear path to VWAP
+
+### SHORT Setup
+1. Band Touch:
+- [ ] Price touches/crosses upper band
+- [ ] Clean, single move to band
+
+2. Rejection:
+- [ ] Candle closes back below band
+- [ ] Clear reversal visible
+
+3. Target Space:
+- [ ] VWAP visible below
+- [ ] Clear path to VWAP
+
+## Trade Implementation
+
+### Position Sizing
+```
+Position = Account Risk / Current ATR
+Example:
+- Risk: $100
+- ATR: $2.50
+- Position = 40 units
+```
+
+### Entry
+- [ ] Enter after rejection confirms
+- [ ] Stop beyond rejection point
+- [ ] Target at VWAP
+
+### Exit
+- [ ] Hit VWAP = Exit
+- [ ] Pattern breaks = Exit
+- [ ] Stop hit = Exit
+
+## Pattern Examples
+
+### Valid Pattern
+```
+1. Clean touch of band
+2. Clear rejection
+3. Room to VWAP
+```
+
+### Invalid Pattern
+```
+1. Multiple touches
+2. No clear rejection
+3. Blocked path to VWAP
+```
+
+## Core Principles
+1. Pattern exists or doesn't
+2. No additional conditions needed
+3. ATR sizes position
+4. VWAP or break exits
+5. Keep it simple
+
+---
+Note: This is a complete checklist. If pattern exists, trade. If not, wait.
