Downside opening semivariance as incremental remaining-RTH volatility state

Among ES sessions already in the strictly trailing high-opening-RV state, downside-dominated opening semivariance raises the remaining-session high-volatility target rate by more than eight percentage points versus upside-dominated opening semivariance, survives total-RV matching, and transfers unchanged to NQ.
