  • · Entry set just past equal daily lows (2 touches) — the sweep level.
  • · Stop pushed beyond equal daily highs (2 touches) so a sweep does not clip it.
  • · Target set just short of equal daily lows (2 touches) — where price is drawn.

  • SLOHLC / ATR(14)
    ATR 706.74
    Stop distance sized as a fraction of ATR; take-profit sized as a multiple of ATR (wider ATR = wider SL & TP).
  • TPSwing S/R (OHLC pivots)
    S 51,186.67 · R 52,319.01
    TP snapped just inside the nearest S/R when it landed within a sensible ATR band, so the target sits at a real level.
  • CONFMacro Quotes (Yahoo)

Raw API inputs
Pattern memos in force
  • Rule 1: IF macro trend is flat AND signal confidence is below 60%, THEN do not enter BUY or SELL trades at market price.
  • Rule 2: IF signal confidence is below 55% AND ATR exceeds 500, THEN limit maximum Take Profit to 0.75x ATR and cap position risk at 0.5%.
  • Rule 3: IF macro trend is down AND direction bias is BUY with confidence below 60%, THEN widen Stop Loss distance to at least 1.5x ATR.
  • Rule 4: IF direction bias is SELL AND MACD histogram is positive above 50.0, THEN widen Stop Loss distance to at least 1.5x ATR or skip the trade.
  • Rule 5: IF RSI is below 60.0 AND MACD histogram is below 50.0 in a flat macro trend, THEN refrain from taking BUY signals.

      Real-money readiness

      Measured from settled daily signals. Expectancy is the average result per trade in R (risk units): winners pay the planned reward, losers cost 1R, expiries roughly nothing. An instrument needs at least 30 settled trades and a positive edge before it is worth risking real money on.

      Trade forensics (daily)

      Every closed trade is replayed bar by bar to measure how far it went against us, how close it came to target, and why it actually won or lost — then those numbers move the next signal's stop, target and confidence.
