     - **Git commit:** 528a0f4 "fix: Use Drift's actual entry price for breakeven SL"

+45. **100% position sizing causes InsufficientCollateral (Fixed Nov 16, 2025):**
+    - **Symptom:** Bot configured for 100% position size gets InsufficientCollateral errors, but Drift UI can open same size position
+    - **Root Cause:** Drift's margin calculation includes fees, slippage buffers, and rounding - exact 100% leaves no room
+    - **Error details:**
+      ```
+      Program log: total_collateral=85547535 ($85.55)
+      Program log: margin_requirement=85583087 ($85.58)
+      Error: InsufficientCollateral (shortage: $0.03)
+      ```
+    - **Real incident (Nov 16, 01:50 CET):**
+      * Collateral: $85.55
+      * Bot tries: $1,283.21 notional (100% × 15x leverage)
+      * Drift UI works: $1,282.57 notional (has internal safety buffer)
+      * Difference: $0.64 causes rejection
+    - **Impact:** Bot cannot trade at full capacity despite account leverage correctly set to 15x
+    - **Fix:** Apply 99% safety buffer automatically when user configures 100% position size
+    ```typescript
+    // In config/trading.ts calculateActualPositionSize (line ~272):
+    let percentDecimal = configuredSize / 100
+    
+    // CRITICAL: Safety buffer for 100% positions
+    if (configuredSize >= 100) {
+      percentDecimal = 0.99
+      console.log(`⚠️ Applying 99% safety buffer for 100% position`)
+    }
+    
+    const calculatedSize = freeCollateral * percentDecimal
+    // $85.55 × 99% = $84.69 (leaves $0.86 for fees/slippage)
+    ```
+    - **Result:** $84.69 × 15x = $1,270.35 notional (well within margin requirements)
+    - **User experience:** Transparent - bot logs "Applying 99% safety buffer" when triggered
+    - **Why Drift UI works:** Has internal safety calculations that bot must replicate externally
+    - **Math proof:** 1% buffer on $85 = $0.85 safety margin (covers typical fees of $0.03-0.10)
+    - **Git commit:** 7129cbf "fix: Add 99% safety buffer for 100% position sizing"
+    - **Lesson:** When integrating with DEX protocols, never use 100% of resources - always leave safety margin for protocol-level calculations
