Subject: [PATCH] fix: Update 1-minute market data docs - No TradingView
 upgrade needed
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

GOOD NEWS: TradingView alert limits are for ACTIVE alerts (slots), not trigger count!

Current Status:
- Essential plan: 20 alert slots
- Used: 4/20 slots
- Needed for 1-min data: 3 slots (SOL/ETH/BTC)
- After implementation: 7/20 slots (13 free)

Cost Impact:
- BEFORE: Documented as $35/month TradingView Pro upgrade required
- AFTER: $0/month - Use existing Essential plan ✅

Changes:
- Updated cost analysis section: $35/month → $0/month
- Updated alert volume section: Clarified slot vs trigger distinction
- Updated header: Added zero-cost callout
- Removed all Pro subscription upgrade requirements

Implementation Path:
- Phase 1: Create 3 alerts on existing subscription
- Phase 2: Validate for 24-48 hours
- Phase 3: Integrate ADX validation into revenge system

No financial approval needed - pure infrastructure improvement at zero cost!
