Whale Liquidity Absorption Profile strategy for XAU_USD.

Mechanism:
  1. For each bar, classify as bullish (close > open) or bearish.
  2. Estimate absorption volume per bar from wick ratios:
       Bull bar: upper_wick / range * volume  (selling absorbed by buyers)
       Bear bar: lower_wick / range * volume  (buying absorbed by sellers)
  3. Rolling `lookback`-bar volume profile is built at each step:
       - Volume binned into `profile_bins` price levels.
       - Delta per bin = buy_volume - sell_volume.
       - Absorption per bin = sum of wick-based absorption volumes.
  4. Rolling strength threshold = `strength_filter`-th percentile of recent volumes.
     Bars above this threshold are classified as "strong" (whale activity).
  5. Long entry: strong bullish bar AND (current price bin has above-median absorption
     OR bullish delta dominance at current bin).
  6. Short entry: strong bearish bar AND (current price bin has above-median absorption
     OR bearish delta dominance at current bin).
  7. Stop loss: ATR * atr_sl_mult below/above entry.
  8. Take profit: stop_loss_distance * rr_ratio.
