-
-# ================================
-# TRADING CONFIGURATION (Optional - Override defaults)
-# ================================
-
-# Position sizing
-# Base position size in USD (default: 50 for safe testing)
-# Example: 50 with 10x leverage = $500 notional position
-MAX_POSITION_SIZE_USD=210
-
-# Leverage multiplier (1-20, default: 10)
-# Higher leverage = bigger gains AND bigger losses
-# Updated Jan 2, 2026: 10x leverage justified by 82% WR, 2.18 PF, 6.19% DD
-LEVERAGE=10
-
-# Risk parameters (LEGACY FALLBACK - used when ATR unavailable)
-# Stop Loss: Close 100% of position when price drops this much
-# Example: -1.5% on 10x = -15% account loss
-STOP_LOSS_PERCENT=-1.3
-
-# ================================
-# DUAL STOP SYSTEM (Advanced)
-# ================================
-# Enable dual stop system to avoid wicks while guaranteeing exit
-# When enabled, places TWO stop orders:
-# 1. Soft Stop (TRIGGER_LIMIT) - Avoids false breakouts/wicks
-# 2. Hard Stop (TRIGGER_MARKET) - Guarantees exit if price keeps falling
-USE_DUAL_STOPS=false
-
-# Soft Stop (Primary, Stop-Limit)
-# Triggers first, tries to avoid wicks
-SOFT_STOP_PERCENT=-1.5
-SOFT_STOP_BUFFER=0.4  # Buffer between trigger and limit (0.4% = limit at -1.9%)
-
-# Hard Stop (Backup, Stop-Market)
-# Only triggers if soft stop doesn't fill
-# Guarantees exit during strong breakdowns
-HARD_STOP_PERCENT=-2.5
-
-# Take Profit 1: Close X% of position at this profit level (FALLBACK)
-# Example: +0.8% on 10x = +8% account gain
-TAKE_PROFIT_1_PERCENT=1.45
-
-# Take Profit 1 Size: What % of position to close at TP1
-# 60 = close 60%, leave 40% for runner
-TAKE_PROFIT_1_SIZE_PERCENT=100
-
-# Take Profit 2: Trigger trailing stop at this profit level (FALLBACK)
-# Example: +1.8% on 10x = +18% account gain
-TAKE_PROFIT_2_PERCENT=1.8
-
-# Take Profit 2 Size: What % of remaining position to close at TP2
-# 0 = don't close at TP2, activate trailing stop on full remaining position
-TAKE_PROFIT_2_SIZE_PERCENT=0
-
-# ================================
-# ATR-BASED TP/SL (PRIMARY SYSTEM - Nov 17, 2025)
-# ================================
-# Enable dynamic TP/SL based on market volatility (RECOMMENDED)
-# ATR (Average True Range) adapts to current market conditions
-# Bull market: Different ATR → Different targets automatically
-# Bear market: Different ATR → Different targets automatically
-# No manual intervention needed when market regime changes!
-USE_ATR_BASED_TARGETS=true
-
-# ATR multipliers for TP1, TP2, and SL
-# Example with SOL ATR = 0.45% of price:
-#   TP1 = 0.45% × 2.0 = 0.90% target
-#   TP2 = 0.45% × 4.0 = 1.80% target
-#   SL = 0.45% × 3.0 = 1.35% distance
-ATR_MULTIPLIER_TP1=2.0
-ATR_MULTIPLIER_TP2=4.0
-ATR_MULTIPLIER_SL=3.0
-
-# Safety bounds (prevent extreme values)
-# TP1 bounds
-MIN_TP1_PERCENT=1.45   # Clamp TP1 to requested 1.1%
-MAX_TP1_PERCENT=1.45   # Clamp TP1 to requested 1.1%
-
-# TP2 bounds
-MIN_TP2_PERCENT=1
-MAX_TP2_PERCENT=3
-
-# SL bounds
-MIN_SL_PERCENT=1.3    # Clamp SL to requested 2.8%
-MAX_SL_PERCENT=1.3    # Clamp SL to requested 2.8%
-
-# Emergency Stop: Hard stop if this level is breached
-# Example: -2.0% on 10x = -20% account loss (rare but protects from flash crashes)
-EMERGENCY_STOP_PERCENT=-1.5
-
-# Dynamic stop-loss adjustments
-# Move SL to breakeven when profit reaches this level
-PROFIT_LOCK_AFTER_TP1_PERCENT=-0.55  # Allow -0.55% drawdown on runner after TP1 (gives room for retracements while TP1 profit already banked)
-
-# Lock in profit when price reaches this level
-PROFIT_LOCK_TRIGGER_PERCENT=1
-
-# How much profit to lock (move SL to this profit level)
-PROFIT_LOCK_PERCENT=0.6
-
-# Risk limits
-# Stop trading if daily loss exceeds this amount (USD)
-# Example: -150 = stop trading after losing $150 in a day
-MAX_DAILY_DRAWDOWN=-1000
-
-# Maximum number of trades allowed per hour (prevents overtrading)
-MAX_TRADES_PER_HOUR=20
-
-# ================================
-# PYRAMIDING / POSITION STACKING
-# ================================

-# Data-driven: Signals ≤72 bars (6h) apart have 100% win rate
-
-# Enable pyramiding feature

-# Leverage for first/base entry (e.g., 7x)

-MAX_LEVERAGE_TOTAL=20
-
-# Maximum pyramid levels (e.g., 2 = base + 1 stack)
-MAX_PYRAMID_LEVELS=2
-
-# Time window for stacking in minutes (e.g., 240 = 4 hours)
-# Conservative setting vs 6h (360min) optimal from backtest
-STACKING_WINDOW_MINUTES=240
-
-# Minimum time between trades in minutes (cooldown period)
-# Example: 10 = 10 minutes between trades
-MIN_TIME_BETWEEN_TRADES=1
-
-# DEX execution settings
-# Maximum acceptable slippage on market orders (percentage)
-# Example: 1.0 = accept up to 1% slippage
-SLIPPAGE_TOLERANCE=0.1
-
-# How often to check prices (milliseconds)
-# Example: 2000 = check every 2 seconds
-PRICE_CHECK_INTERVAL_MS=2000

 **Adaptive Leverage System (Nov 24, 2025 - RISK-ADJUSTED POSITION SIZING):**
 - **Purpose:** Automatically adjust leverage based on signal quality score - high confidence gets full leverage, borderline signals get reduced risk exposure
 - **Quality-Based Leverage Tiers:**
-  - **Quality 95-100:** 15x leverage ($540 × 15x = $8,100 notional position)
+  - **Currently disabled** - fixed 5x leverage for all signals (Jan 30, 2026)
-  - **Quality 90-94:** 10x leverage ($540 × 10x = $5,400 notional position)
+  - **Previous tiers (historical):** Quality 95-100: 15x, Quality 90-94: 10x
   - **Quality <90:** Blocked by direction-specific thresholds
-- **Risk Impact:** Quality 90-94 signals save $2,700 exposure (33% risk reduction) vs fixed 15x
+- **Configuration:** `USE_ADAPTIVE_LEVERAGE=false`, `LEVERAGE=5`, `HIGH_QUALITY_LEVERAGE=5`, `LOW_QUALITY_LEVERAGE=5` in .env
-- **Data-Driven Justification:** v8 indicator quality 95+ = 100% WR (4/4 wins), quality 90-94 more volatile
-- **Configuration:** `USE_ADAPTIVE_LEVERAGE=true`, `HIGH_QUALITY_LEVERAGE=15`, `LOW_QUALITY_LEVERAGE=10`, `QUALITY_LEVERAGE_THRESHOLD=95` in .env
 - **Implementation:** Quality score calculated EARLY in execute endpoint (before position sizing), passed to `getActualPositionSizeForSymbol(qualityScore)`, leverage determined via `getLeverageForQualityScore()` helper
 - **Log Message:** `📊 Adaptive leverage: Quality X → Yx leverage (threshold: 95)`
 - **Trade-off:** ~$21 less profit on borderline wins, but ~$21 less loss on borderline stops = better risk-adjusted returns
