- Changed both LONG and SHORT revenge to require 90-second confirmation
- OLD: LONG immediate entry, SHORT 60s confirmation
- NEW: Both require 90s (1.5 minutes) sustained move before entry
- Reasoning: Filters retest wicks while still catching big moves
Real-world scenario (Nov 26, 2025):
- Stop-out: $138.00 at 14:51 CET
- Would enter immediately: $136.32
- Retest bounce: $137.50 (would stop out again at $137.96)
- Actual move: $136 → $144.50 (+$530 opportunity)
- OLD system: Enters $136.32, stops $137.50 = LOSS AGAIN
- NEW system (90s): Waits through retest, enters safely after confirmation
Option 2 approach (1-2 minute confirmation):
- Fast enough to catch moves (not full 5min candle)
- Slow enough to filter quick wick reversals
- Tracks firstCrossTime, resets if price leaves zone
- Logs progress: '⏱️ LONG/SHORT revenge: X.Xmin in zone (need 1.5min)'
Files changed:
- lib/trading/stop-hunt-tracker.ts (lines 254-310)
Deployment:
- Container restarted: 2025-11-26 20:52:55 CET
- Build time: 71.8s compilation
- Status: ✅ DEPLOYED and VERIFIED
Future consideration:
- User suggested TradingView signals every 1 minute for better granularity
- Decision: Validate 90s approach first with real stop-outs
