A streak is a run of consecutive candles with the same energy state. Average, median and maximum are computed over COMPLETED streaks; the ongoing streak is excluded from historical stats and reported separately to avoid biasing the numbers.

No. These are historical frequencies describing MDF's past behavior — not future probabilities and not buy/sell advice. Investors should combine them with their own trading method and do full research before applying.
