 **Key Design Principle:** Dual-layer redundancy - every trade has both on-chain orders (Drift) AND software monitoring (Position Manager) as backup.

+**Exit Strategy:** ATR-Based TP2-as-Runner system (OPTIMIZED - Dec 5, 2025):
 - **ATR-BASED TP/SL** (PRIMARY): TP1/TP2/SL calculated from ATR × multipliers
-  - TP1: ATR × 2.0 (typically ~0.86%, closes 60% default)
-  - TP2: ATR × 4.0 (typically ~1.72%, activates trailing stop)
-  - SL: ATR × 3.0 (typically ~1.29%)
-  - Safety bounds: MIN/MAX caps prevent extremes
+  - TP1: ATR × 1.5 (typically ~0.65%, closes 75%) - OPTIMIZED for capture before reversal
+  - TP2: ATR × 3.0 (typically ~1.3%, activates trailing stop)
+  - SL: ATR × 2.5 (typically ~1.08%)
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4-1.0% TP1, 0.8-2.5% TP2, 0.7-1.8% SL
   - Falls back to fixed % if ATR unavailable
-- **Runner:** 40% remaining after TP1 (configurable via `TAKE_PROFIT_1_SIZE_PERCENT=60`)
+- **Runner:** 25% remaining after TP1 (configurable via `TAKE_PROFIT_1_SIZE_PERCENT=75`)
+- **Optimization Rationale (Dec 5, 2025):**
+  - Previous config: 0% TP1/TP2 hit rate despite 17-24% avg MFE
+  - Problem: Targets hit during spikes, reversed before 2s monitoring loop detected
+  - Solution: Tighter targets (1.5×/3.0× vs 2.0×/4.0×) capture moves before reversal
+  - Close 75% at TP1 to bank profit immediately, 25% runner for extended trends
+  - Leverage reduced to 5× during testing phase (from 10×)
 - **Runner SL after TP1:** ADX-based adaptive positioning (Nov 19, 2025):
   - ADX < 20: SL at 0% (breakeven) - Weak trend, preserve TP1 profit
   - ADX 20-25: SL at -0.3% - Moderate trend, some retracement room
