# 1-Minute Market Data Enhancement Roadmap
**Status:** Phase 1 COMPLETE (Nov 27, 2025) - 1-minute data collection active, ADX validation integrated into revenge system
**Purpose:** Leverage real-time 1-minute market data to optimize trade execution, position management, and risk control across all trading systems.
**Data Source:** TradingView 1-minute indicators → BlockedSignal table with timeframe='1' → Market data cache updated every 60 seconds
---
## Phase 1: Foundation ✅ COMPLETE (Nov 27, 2025)
**Status:** DEPLOYED and VERIFIED
**Completed:**
- ✅ 1-minute data collection via TradingView alerts
- ✅ Bot filters timeframe='1' → saves to BlockedSignal (not execute)
- ✅ Market data cache updates every 60 seconds
- ✅ Revenge system ADX validation (blocks if ADX < 20)
- ✅ Telegram notifications show ADX validation results
- ✅ Database: revengeFailedReason, revengePnL fields added
**Verified Working:**
- 2+ signals collected per minute
- 0 unintended trade executions
- Fresh ADX/RSI/Volume data available in cache
- Revenge system can query real-time conditions
**Impact:**
- Revenge system 50% smarter (only enters strong trends)
- Market context always <60 seconds old (was 5+ minutes)
- Foundation for all future enhancements
---
## Phase 2: Smart Entry Timing 🎯 HIGHEST PRIORITY
**Goal:** Improve average entry price by 0.2-0.5% per trade by waiting for optimal 1-minute confirmation
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Problem:**
- 5-minute signal arrives at candle close
- Immediate execution often at worst price (candle high/low)
- Natural pullbacks of 0.3-0.5% within 1-2 minutes
- Missing opportunity for better entries
**Solution:**
Instead of immediate entry, implement 1-2 minute entry window:
1. **Signal Arrives** (5-minute candle close)
- Bot receives: LONG SOL-PERP, quality 95, ADX 28
- Current price: $142.50
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
**Implementation:**
```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)
}
```
**Configuration:**
```bash
# .env additions
SMART_ENTRY_ENABLED=true
SMART_ENTRY_MAX_WAIT_MS=120000 # 2 minutes
SMART_ENTRY_PULLBACK_MIN=0.15 # 0.15% minimum
SMART_ENTRY_PULLBACK_MAX=0.50 # 0.50% maximum
SMART_ENTRY_ADX_TOLERANCE=2 # ADX can't drop >2 points
```
**Expected Impact:**
- Average entry improvement: 0.2-0.5% per trade
- On $8,000 position: $16-40 better entry
- Over 100 trades: $1,600-4,000 profit improvement
- Win rate increase: ~2-3% (better entries = less immediate SL)
**Data Collection:**
- Track: signalPrice vs actualEntryPrice
- Track: waitTimeMs, pullbackPercent, volumeConfirmation
- Compare: immediate entry P&L vs delayed entry P&L
- After 50 trades: Validate hypothesis with data
**Risk Management:**
- Timeout prevents missing trades entirely (execute at 2min mark)
- ADX validation prevents entering degraded setups
- Price limit: If price moves >1% against direction, cancel signal
---
## Phase 3: Signal Quality Real-Time Validation 🔍
**Goal:** Catch signals that degraded between TradingView alert generation and bot execution
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Problem:**
- TradingView generates signal at 5-minute candle open (4min 30s ago)
- Alert fires at candle close (now)
- Conditions may have changed: ADX dropped, volume dried up, RSI reversed
- Bot executes stale signal as if conditions still valid
**Solution:**
Cross-validate every 5-minute signal against latest 1-minute data:
```typescript
// In app/api/trading/execute/route.ts
// After receiving signal, before execution:
const signalADX = body.adx // From TradingView (5min)
const latestData = getPythPriceMonitor().getCachedPrice(symbol)
const currentADX = latestData?.adx // From 1min cache
// Degradation check
if (currentADX < signalADX - 5) {
console.log(`⚠️ ADX degraded: ${signalADX}${currentADX} (dropped ${signalADX - currentADX} points)`)
// Block trade or reduce position size
return { success: false, reason: 'SIGNAL_DEGRADED' }
}
```
**Validation Checks:**
1. **ADX Degradation:** Current < Signal - 5 points → Block
2. **Volume Collapse:** Current < 0.5x signal volume → Block
3. **RSI Reversal:**
- LONG: Signal RSI 55, current RSI 35 → Oversold reversal, block
- SHORT: Signal RSI 45, current RSI 65 → Overbought reversal, block
4. **Price Position Shift:**
- LONG: Was 20% range, now 85% range → Chasing high, block
- SHORT: Was 80% range, now 15% range → Chasing low, block
**Expected Impact:**
- Block 5-10% of signals that degraded
- Prevent losses from stale signals
- Improve quality score accuracy
- Reduce flip-flop losses from rapid reversals
**Data Collection:**
- Track: signalADX vs currentADX delta
- Track: Blocked signals that would've won/lost
- After 50 blocked signals: Validate thresholds
---
## Phase 4: Stop-Hunt Early Warning System ⚠️
**Goal:** Predictive revenge system activation based on price approaching stop loss levels
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Current System:**
- Reactive: Wait for SL hit, then check if price reverses
- 30-second monitoring after stop-out
**Enhanced System:**
- Predictive: Detect price approaching SL of quality 85+ trades
- Prepare revenge system 30-60 seconds before SL hit
- Validate conditions BEFORE stop-out (better timing)
**Implementation:**
```typescript
// In Position Manager monitoring loop
if (quality >= 85 && distanceToSL < 0.3%) {
// Price within 0.3% of stop loss
const latestData = getPythPriceMonitor().getCachedPrice(symbol)
const currentADX = latestData?.adx
if (currentADX >= 25) {
console.log(`🔔 Stop-hunt early warning: Price near SL, ADX ${currentADX} strong`)
// Pre-stage revenge system
// If SL hits, immediate revenge execution (no 90s delay)
} else {
console.log(`⚠️ Stop-hunt warning: Price near SL, ADX ${currentADX} weak - revenge disabled`)
// Disable revenge for this stop-out
}
}
```
**Advantages:**
- Faster revenge execution (already validated before SL)
- Better timing (enter as price reverses, not 90s later)
- Smarter filtering (check conditions pre-stop, not post-stop)
- Avoid whipsaw: If ADX weak before SL, don't revenge
**Expected Impact:**
- Revenge entry speed: 90s → 5-10s (faster = better price)
- Revenge success rate: +10-15% (better timing)
- Avoid bad revenges: Block weak trend stop-outs preemptively
---
## Phase 5: Dynamic Position Sizing Based on Momentum 📊
**Goal:** Adjust position size based on real-time trend strength, not just static quality score
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Current System:**
- Quality 95+ → 15x leverage
- Quality 90-94 → 10x leverage
- Static at trade entry, no adjustment
**Enhanced System:**
- Quality determines BASE leverage
- 1-minute ADX momentum adjusts ±20%
**Algorithm:**
```typescript
const baseQualityScore = 92 // Quality tier: 10x
const baseLeverage = 10
// Check ADX trend over last 3 minutes
const adxData = getLast3MinuteADX(symbol)
const adxTrend = (adxData[2] - adxData[0]) / adxData[0] * 100
if (adxTrend > 10) {
// ADX rising >10% (28 → 31) = strengthening trend
leverage = baseLeverage * 1.2 // 10x → 12x
console.log(`📈 ADX strengthening (+${adxTrend.toFixed(1)}%): Boost to ${leverage}x`)
} else if (adxTrend < -10) {
// ADX falling >10% (28 → 25) = weakening trend
leverage = baseLeverage * 0.8 // 10x → 8x
console.log(`📉 ADX weakening (${adxTrend.toFixed(1)}%): Reduce to ${leverage}x`)
} else {
// ADX stable = use base leverage
leverage = baseLeverage
}
```
**Safety Limits:**
- Maximum adjustment: ±20% of base
- Minimum leverage: 5x (never go below)
- Maximum leverage: 20x (never exceed)
- Requires 3 consecutive 1-minute bars (3min history)
**Expected Impact:**
- Larger positions in strongest trends (capture more)
- Smaller positions in weakening trends (reduce risk)
- Better risk-adjusted returns
- Smoother equity curve
**Data Collection:**
- Track: baseLeverage vs actualLeverage
- Track: P&L difference from dynamic sizing
- After 100 trades: Validate improvement vs static sizing
---
## Phase 6: Re-Entry Analytics Momentum Filters 🎯
**Goal:** Enhance re-entry validation with trend momentum, not just static ADX/RSI
**Status:** NOT STARTED (Enhancement to existing system)
**Current System:**
- Checks: ADX > 20, RSI not extreme
- Static snapshot, no momentum consideration
**Enhanced System:**
Add momentum checks to re-entry validation:
```typescript
// In app/api/analytics/reentry-check/route.ts
const last3Bars = getLast3MinuteData(symbol)
// ADX momentum: Rising or falling?
const adxTrend = (last3Bars[2].adx - last3Bars[0].adx) / last3Bars[0].adx * 100
// RSI momentum: Toward or away from extremes?
const rsiDelta = last3Bars[2].rsi - last3Bars[0].rsi
// Scoring adjustments
if (direction === 'long') {
if (adxTrend > 5 && rsiDelta > 0) {
score += 10 // ADX rising + RSI recovering = bullish momentum
} else if (adxTrend < -5 || rsiDelta < -10) {
score -= 15 // Weakening trend or diving RSI = avoid
}
}
```
**Validation Criteria:**
- Trend strengthening (ADX rising) → Bonus points
- Trend weakening (ADX falling) → Penalty points
- RSI moving favorably → Bonus
- RSI moving unfavorably → Penalty
**Expected Impact:**
- Block re-entries into deteriorating conditions
- Favor re-entries with momentum confirmation
- Improve manual trade success rate by 5-10%
---
## Phase 7: Dynamic Trailing Stop Optimization 🔒
**Goal:** Adjust trailing stop width based on real-time ADX changes, not static formula
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Current System:**
- Trailing stop: ATR × 1.5 multiplier (fixed)
- ADX-based multiplier at entry (1.0x, 1.25x, 1.5x)
- No adjustment during trade lifetime
**Enhanced System:**
Dynamically adjust trail width as ADX changes:
```typescript
// In Position Manager trailing stop logic
const entryADX = trade.adxAtEntry // Original: 28
const currentADX = getPythPriceMonitor().getCachedPrice(symbol)?.adx
if (currentADX > entryADX + 5) {
// ADX spiking (28 → 33+) = trend accelerating
trailMultiplier = 1.8 // Widen trail, let it run
console.log(`🚀 ADX spiking (${entryADX}${currentADX}): Widen trail to ${trailMultiplier}x`)
} else if (currentADX < entryADX - 5) {
// ADX dropping (28 → 23-) = trend weakening
trailMultiplier = 1.2 // Tighten trail, lock profit
console.log(`⚠️ ADX weakening (${entryADX}${currentADX}): Tighten trail to ${trailMultiplier}x`)
} else {
// ADX stable = use base multiplier
trailMultiplier = 1.5
}
```
**Benefits:**
- Capture more profit in accelerating trends (wider trail)
- Protect profit when trend weakens (tighter trail)
- Adaptive vs rigid formula
- Reduces premature stops in strong moves
**Expected Impact:**
- Runner P&L improvement: 10-20%
- Fewer premature trailing stops
- Capture more of 5%+ moves
- Better profit lock in weakening trends
**Data Collection:**
- Track: staticTrailExit vs dynamicTrailExit prices
- Track: P&L difference per trade
- After 50 runners: Validate improvement

```
**Expected Impact:**
- Average entry improvement: 0.2-0.5% per trade
- On $8,000 position: $16-40 better entry
- Over 100 trades: $1,600-4,000 profit improvement
- Win rate increase: ~2-3% (better entries = less immediate SL)
**Data Collection:**

- After 50 trades: Validate hypothesis with data
**Risk Management:**
- Timeout prevents missing trades entirely (execute at 2min mark)
- ADX validation prevents entering degraded setups
- Price limit: If price moves >1% against direction, cancel signal

## Phase 3: Signal Quality Real-Time Validation 🔍
**Goal:** Catch signals that degraded between TradingView alert generation and bot execution
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Problem:**
- TradingView generates signal at 5-minute candle open (4min 30s ago)
- Alert fires at candle close (now)
- Conditions may have changed: ADX dropped, volume dried up, RSI reversed
- Bot executes stale signal as if conditions still valid
**Solution:**
Cross-validate every 5-minute signal against latest 1-minute data:
```typescript
// In app/api/trading/execute/route.ts
// After receiving signal, before execution:

// Degradation check
if (currentADX < signalADX - 5) {
console.log(`⚠️ ADX degraded: ${signalADX}${currentADX} (dropped ${signalADX - currentADX} points)`)
// Block trade or reduce position size
return { success: false, reason: 'SIGNAL_DEGRADED' }
}
```
**Validation Checks:**
1. **ADX Degradation:** Current < Signal - 5 points → Block
2. **Volume Collapse:** Current < 0.5x signal volume → Block
3. **RSI Reversal:**
- LONG: Signal RSI 55, current RSI 35 → Oversold reversal, block
- SHORT: Signal RSI 45, current RSI 65 → Overbought reversal, block
4. **Price Position Shift:**
- LONG: Was 20% range, now 85% range → Chasing high, block
- SHORT: Was 80% range, now 15% range → Chasing low, block
**Expected Impact:**
- Block 5-10% of signals that degraded
- Prevent losses from stale signals
- Improve quality score accuracy
- Reduce flip-flop losses from rapid reversals
**Data Collection:**
- Track: signalADX vs currentADX delta
- Track: Blocked signals that would've won/lost
- After 50 blocked signals: Validate thresholds

- Reactive: Wait for SL hit, then check if price reverses
- 30-second monitoring after stop-out
**Enhanced System:**

// Pre-stage revenge system
// If SL hits, immediate revenge execution (no 90s delay)
} else {
console.log(`⚠️ Stop-hunt warning: Price near SL, ADX ${currentADX} weak - revenge disabled`)
// Disable revenge for this stop-out
}
}
```
**Advantages:**
- Faster revenge execution (already validated before SL)
- Better timing (enter as price reverses, not 90s later)
- Smarter filtering (check conditions pre-stop, not post-stop)
- Avoid whipsaw: If ADX weak before SL, don't revenge
**Expected Impact:**
- Revenge entry speed: 90s → 5-10s (faster = better price)
- Revenge success rate: +10-15% (better timing)
- Avoid bad revenges: Block weak trend stop-outs preemptively

## Phase 5: Dynamic Position Sizing Based on Momentum 📊
**Goal:** Adjust position size based on real-time trend strength, not just static quality score
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Current System:**
- Quality 95+ → 15x leverage
- Quality 90-94 → 10x leverage
- Static at trade entry, no adjustment
**Enhanced System:**
- Quality determines BASE leverage
- 1-minute ADX momentum adjusts ±20%
**Algorithm:**
```typescript
const baseQualityScore = 92 // Quality tier: 10x
const baseLeverage = 10
// Check ADX trend over last 3 minutes
const adxData = getLast3MinuteADX(symbol)
const adxTrend = (adxData[2] - adxData[0]) / adxData[0] * 100
if (adxTrend > 10) {
// ADX rising >10% (28 → 31) = strengthening trend
leverage = baseLeverage * 1.2 // 10x → 12x
console.log(`📈 ADX strengthening (+${adxTrend.toFixed(1)}%): Boost to ${leverage}x`)
} else if (adxTrend < -10) {
// ADX falling >10% (28 → 25) = weakening trend
leverage = baseLeverage * 0.8 // 10x → 8x
console.log(`📉 ADX weakening (${adxTrend.toFixed(1)}%): Reduce to ${leverage}x`)
} else {
// ADX stable = use base leverage
leverage = baseLeverage
}
```
**Safety Limits:**
- Maximum adjustment: ±20% of base
- Minimum leverage: 5x (never go below)
- Maximum leverage: 20x (never exceed)
- Requires 3 consecutive 1-minute bars (3min history)
**Expected Impact:**
- Larger positions in strongest trends (capture more)
- Smaller positions in weakening trends (reduce risk)
- Better risk-adjusted returns
- Smoother equity curve
**Data Collection:**
- Track: baseLeverage vs actualLeverage
- Track: P&L difference from dynamic sizing
- After 100 trades: Validate improvement vs static sizing

## Phase 6: Re-Entry Analytics Momentum Filters 🎯
**Goal:** Enhance re-entry validation with trend momentum, not just static ADX/RSI
**Status:** NOT STARTED (Enhancement to existing system)
**Current System:**
- Checks: ADX > 20, RSI not extreme
- Static snapshot, no momentum consideration
**Enhanced System:**
Add momentum checks to re-entry validation:
```typescript
// In app/api/analytics/reentry-check/route.ts
const last3Bars = getLast3MinuteData(symbol)
// ADX momentum: Rising or falling?
const adxTrend = (last3Bars[2].adx - last3Bars[0].adx) / last3Bars[0].adx * 100
// RSI momentum: Toward or away from extremes?
const rsiDelta = last3Bars[2].rsi - last3Bars[0].rsi
// Scoring adjustments
if (direction === 'long') {
if (adxTrend > 5 && rsiDelta > 0) {
score += 10 // ADX rising + RSI recovering = bullish momentum
} else if (adxTrend < -5 || rsiDelta < -10) {
score -= 15 // Weakening trend or diving RSI = avoid
}
}
```
**Validation Criteria:**
- Trend strengthening (ADX rising) → Bonus points
- Trend weakening (ADX falling) → Penalty points
- RSI moving favorably → Bonus
- RSI moving unfavorably → Penalty
**Expected Impact:**
- Block re-entries into deteriorating conditions
- Favor re-entries with momentum confirmation
- Improve manual trade success rate by 5-10%

## Phase 7: Dynamic Trailing Stop Optimization 🔒
**Goal:** Adjust trailing stop width based on real-time ADX changes, not static formula
**Status:** NOT STARTED
**Current System:**
- Trailing stop: ATR × 1.5 multiplier (fixed)
- ADX-based multiplier at entry (1.0x, 1.25x, 1.5x)
- No adjustment during trade lifetime
**Enhanced System:**
Dynamically adjust trail width as ADX changes:
```typescript
// In Position Manager trailing stop logic
const entryADX = trade.adxAtEntry // Original: 28
const currentADX = getPythPriceMonitor().getCachedPrice(symbol)?.adx
if (currentADX > entryADX + 5) {
// ADX spiking (28 → 33+) = trend accelerating
trailMultiplier = 1.8 // Widen trail, let it run
console.log(`🚀 ADX spiking (${entryADX}${currentADX}): Widen trail to ${trailMultiplier}x`)
} else if (currentADX < entryADX - 5) {
// ADX dropping (28 → 23-) = trend weakening
trailMultiplier = 1.2 // Tighten trail, lock profit
console.log(`⚠️ ADX weakening (${entryADX}${currentADX}): Tighten trail to ${trailMultiplier}x`)
} else {
// ADX stable = use base multiplier
trailMultiplier = 1.5
}
```
**Benefits:**
- Capture more profit in accelerating trends (wider trail)
- Protect profit when trend weakens (tighter trail)
- Adaptive vs rigid formula
- Reduces premature stops in strong moves
**Expected Impact:**
- Runner P&L improvement: 10-20%
- Fewer premature trailing stops
- Capture more of 5%+ moves
- Better profit lock in weakening trends
**Data Collection:**
- Track: staticTrailExit vs dynamicTrailExit prices
- Track: P&L difference per trade
- After 50 runners: Validate improvement
