- Auto-close phantom positions immediately via market order
- Return HTTP 200 (not 500) to allow n8n workflow continuation
- Save phantom trades to database with full P&L tracking
- Exit reason: 'manual' category for phantom auto-closes
- Protects user during unavailable hours (sleeping, no phone)
- Add Docker build best practices to instructions (background + tail)
- Document phantom system as Critical Component #1
- Add Common Pitfall #30: Phantom notification workflow
Why auto-close:
- User can't always respond to phantom alerts
- Unmonitored position = unlimited risk exposure
- Better to exit with small loss/gain than leave exposed
- Re-entry possible if setup actually good
Files changed:
- app/api/trading/execute/route.ts: Auto-close logic
- .github/copilot-instructions.md: Documentation + build pattern
- Added getConnection() method to DriftService
- Added proper transaction confirmation in openPosition()
- Check confirmation.value.err to detect on-chain failures
- Return error if transaction fails instead of assuming success
- Prevents phantom trades that never actually execute
This fixes the issue where bot was recording trades with transaction
signatures that don't exist on-chain (like 2gqrPxnvGzdRp56...).
- Added getFundingRate() method to DriftService
- Capture expectedEntryPrice from oracle before order execution
- Capture fundingRateAtEntry from Drift Protocol
- Save market context fields to database (expectedEntryPrice, fundingRateAtEntry)
- Calculate entry slippage percentage in createTrade()
- Fixed template literal syntax errors in execute endpoint
Database fields populated:
- expectedEntryPrice: Oracle price before order
- entrySlippagePct: Calculated from entrySlippage
- fundingRateAtEntry: Current funding rate from Drift
