Trading Strategy by Duration:
- 5-min: Ultra-high frequency, requires tight risk management, penny_clipper focus
- 1-hour: Balanced entry points, good for mean reversion + momentum
- 4-hour: Swing trading, catch multi-hour trends, focus on momentum
- Daily: Position trading, macroeconomic drivers, long holding periods
Exit Logic
Positions are monitored every 500ms with 9 exit types (in priority order):
- Force exit - < 30s before expiry (15-min) or < 10s (5-min)
- Take profit - PnL >= TP% (default 15%)
- Stop loss - PnL <= -SL% (default 12%)
- Ratchet floor - Progressive giveback from confirmed high-water mark
- Trailing stop - Tightens as expiry approaches
- Depth collapse - Orderbook depth dropped 60%+ while price dropping
- Stale profit - Profitable but bid unchanged for 7s
- Stagnant profit - At +3% for 13s with no progress
- Time exit - Approaching minimum time left
