docs: CRITICAL - Fix roadmap Phase 7.1/7.2 status + add MANDATORY update requirements

PROBLEM DISCOVERED (Nov 27, 2025):
User: "whats next on our roadmap with the biggest impact?"
Agent: "Phase 3 Smart Entry Timing - NOT STARTED"
User: "i thought that was already implemented?" ← USER WAS RIGHT!
Reality: Phase 3 = Phase 7.1 (smart-entry-timer.ts, 718 lines, DEPLOYED)

ROOT CAUSE:
- Roadmap said "Phase 3: NOT STARTED"
- Code reality: Phase 7.1 Smart Entry Timer fully operational
- Phase 7.2 Signal Quality Validation also deployed Nov 27
- Documentation completely out of sync with deployed code

IMPACT:
- User confusion justified (roadmap misleading)
- Wasted time investigating "next feature" already deployed
- Agent suggested implementing feature that exists
- Phase numbering confusion (Phase 2/3/7.1/7.2 mixed)

FIXES APPLIED:

1. 1MIN_DATA_ENHANCEMENTS_ROADMAP.md:
   - Phase 7.1: Smart Entry Timer →  COMPLETE (DEPLOYED)
   - Added complete documentation of deployed system
   - Explained timeout protection (NO MISSED TRADES)
   - Showed ENV config (SMART_ENTRY_ENABLED=true)
   - Phase 7.2: Already marked complete (Nov 27)

2. .github/copilot-instructions.md:
   - NEW SECTION: "📋 MANDATORY: ROADMAP MAINTENANCE"
   - 6 iron-clad rules for roadmap updates
   - Update immediately after deployment (same session)
   - Verify roadmap accuracy BEFORE recommending features
   - Never suggest features based only on roadmap status
   - ALWAYS grep codebase to verify implementation
   - Checklist for roadmap updates
   - Before recommending "next feature" verification steps

MANDATORY WORKFLOW (ALL FUTURE AGENTS):
. Complete feature/phase
. Update roadmap status → COMPLETE with date
. Document actual impact (after data collection)
. Consolidate phase numbering if inconsistencies
. Commit roadmap changes SAME SESSION
. VERIFY feature exists before recommending

LESSON LEARNED:
Roadmap documentation is CRITICAL in real money system.
Wrong roadmap = wrong priorities = wasted time = lost profits.
User time is valuable - outdated docs waste it.

FILES CHANGED:
- 1MIN_DATA_ENHANCEMENTS_ROADMAP.md (Phase 7.1 marked COMPLETE)
- .github/copilot-instructions.md (MANDATORY section added)

STATUS: Documentation now reflects deployed reality

## 📋 MANDATORY: ROADMAP MAINTENANCE - NO EXCEPTIONS
**THIS IS A CRITICAL REQUIREMENT - NOT OPTIONAL**
### Why Roadmap Updates Are MANDATORY
User discovered critical documentation bug (Nov 27, 2025):
- Roadmap said: "Phase 3: Smart Entry Timing - NOT STARTED"
- Reality: Fully deployed as Phase 7.1 (718-line smart-entry-timer.ts operational)
- User confusion: "i thought that was already implemented?" → User was RIGHT
- **Result:** Documentation misleading, wasted time investigating "next feature" already deployed
### IRON-CLAD RULES for Roadmap Updates
**1. UPDATE ROADMAP IMMEDIATELY AFTER DEPLOYMENT**
- ✅ Phase completed → Mark as COMPLETE with deployment date
- ✅ Phase started → Update status to IN PROGRESS
- ✅ Expected impact realized → Document actual data vs expected
- ✅ Commit roadmap changes SAME SESSION as feature deployment
**2. VERIFY ROADMAP ACCURACY BEFORE RECOMMENDING FEATURES**
- ❌ NEVER suggest implementing features based ONLY on roadmap status
- ✅ ALWAYS grep codebase for existing implementation before recommending
- ✅ Check: Does file exist? Is it integrated? Is ENV variable set?
- ✅ Example: Phase 3 "not started" but smart-entry-timer.ts exists = roadmap WRONG
**3. MAINTAIN PHASE NUMBERING CONSISTENCY**
- If code says "Phase 7.1" but roadmap says "Phase 3", consolidate naming
- Update ALL references (roadmap files, code comments, documentation)
- Prevent confusion from multiple names for same feature
**4. ROADMAP FILES TO UPDATE**
- `1MIN_DATA_ENHANCEMENTS_ROADMAP.md` (main detailed roadmap)
- `docs/1MIN_DATA_ENHANCEMENTS_ROADMAP.md` (documentation copy)
- `OPTIMIZATION_MASTER_ROADMAP.md` (high-level consolidated view)
- Website roadmap API endpoint (if applicable)
- This file's "When Making Changes" section (if new pattern learned)
**5. ROADMAP UPDATE CHECKLIST**
When completing ANY feature or phase:
- [ ] Mark phase status: NOT STARTED → IN PROGRESS → COMPLETE
- [ ] Add deployment date: ✅ COMPLETE (Nov 27, 2025)
- [ ] Document actual impact vs expected (after 50-100 trades data)
- [ ] Update phase numbering if inconsistencies exist
- [ ] Commit with message: "docs: Update roadmap - Phase X complete"
- [ ] Verify website roadmap updated (if applicable)
**6. BEFORE RECOMMENDING "NEXT FEATURE"**
```bash
# 1. Read roadmap to identify highest-impact "NOT STARTED" feature
cat 1MIN_DATA_ENHANCEMENTS_ROADMAP.md | grep "NOT STARTED"
# 2. VERIFY it's actually not implemented (grep for files/classes)
grep -r "SmartEntryTimer" lib/
grep -r "SMART_ENTRY_ENABLED" .env
# 3. If files exist → ROADMAP WRONG, update it first
# 4. Only then recommend truly unimplemented features
```
**WHY THIS MATTERS:**
User relies on roadmap for strategic planning. Wrong roadmap = wrong decisions = wasted development time = delayed profit optimization. In a real money system, time wasted = money not earned.
**Outdated roadmap = wasted user time = lost profits**

## Phase 3: Smart Entry Timing 🎯 NEXT PRIORITY
## Phase 7.1: Smart Entry Timer ✅ COMPLETE (DEPLOYED)
**Goal:** Improve average entry price by 0.2-0.5% per trade by waiting for optimal 1-minute confirmation
**Goal:** Improve average entry price by 0.2-0.5% per trade by waiting for optimal pullback
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Status:** DEPLOYED and OPERATIONAL (aliased as "Phase 3" in original roadmap)
**Implementation:**
- **File:** `lib/trading/smart-entry-timer.ts` (718 lines)
- **Configuration:** SMART_ENTRY_ENABLED=true in .env
- **Timeout Protection:** NO MISSED TRADES - executes at market after 2 minutes
**How It Works:**
1. **Signal Arrives** (5-minute candle close)
- Bot receives: LONG SOL-PERP, quality 95, ADX 28
- Current price: $142.50
- Signal queued for smart entry
2. **Monitor for Optimal Pullback** (every 15 seconds, up to 2 minutes)
- **LONG:** Wait for price to dip 0.15-0.50% below signal price
- **SHORT:** Wait for price to bounce 0.15-0.50% above signal price
- Track best price observed during wait period
- Validate ADX hasn't dropped >2 points (trend intact)
2. **Wait for 1-Minute Confirmation** (up to 2 minutes)
- Monitor next 2 × 1-minute bars
- Look for:
* Price pullback 0.2-0.3% (LONG: price dips, SHORT: price rises)
* Volume spike on next bar (confirmation)
* ADX holds or increases (trend intact)
3. **Execute When Conditions Met**
- Best case: Enter at $142.15 (0.25% better than signal)
- Timeout: If no pullback within 2 minutes, execute at market
- Validation: ADX must still be >= signal ADX - 2 points
- **Pullback confirmed:** Enter immediately at better price (e.g., $142.15 vs $142.50)
- **Timeout at 2 minutes:** Execute at current market price (no missed trades)
- **Pullback too large (>0.50%):** Keep waiting (might be reversal, not pullback)
**Implementation:**
**Timeout Protection (lines 186-192):**
```typescript
// New service: lib/trading/smart-entry-timer.ts
class SmartEntryTimer {
// Queue signal for delayed execution
queueSignal(signal, maxWaitMs = 120000) // 2 minutes
// Monitor 1-minute bars for optimal entry
monitorForEntry(signal) {
// Check every 1-minute bar:
// - Price pullback?
// - Volume confirmation?
// - ADX still strong?
}
// Execute when conditions met or timeout
executeEntry(signal, actualPrice)
if (now >= signal.expiresAt) {
console.log(`Smart Entry: Timeout for ${symbol} (waited 120s)`)
const currentPrice = latestPrice?.price || signal.signalPrice
await this.executeSignal(signal, currentPrice, 'timeout')
}
```
**Configuration:**
```bash
# .env additions
# .env (CURRENTLY ACTIVE)
SMART_ENTRY_ENABLED=true
SMART_ENTRY_MAX_WAIT_MS=120000 # 2 minutes
SMART_ENTRY_PULLBACK_MIN=0.15 # 0.15% minimum
@@ -147,6 +142,9 @@ SMART_ENTRY_PULLBACK_MAX=0.50 # 0.50% maximum
SMART_ENTRY_ADX_TOLERANCE=2 # ADX can't drop >2 points
```
**Integration with Phase 7.2:**
Smart Entry Timer runs first (wait for pullback), then Phase 7.2 validation runs (check if conditions still good), then execution. Both phases work together seamlessly.
**Expected Impact:**
- Average entry improvement: 0.2-0.5% per trade
- On $8,000 position: $16-40 better entry
