## Scope and limitations

These are machine-extracted research records, not verified trading systems. Catalog rank measures specification detail and claimed evidence, not profitability. The catalog extraction pipeline did not independently backtest these records. Its separate selected testing ledger does not validate the wider corpus. Rules, labels and parameters can be incomplete or wrong; consult the original source and its reuse terms.

No endorsement, ownership claim or source-code reuse permission is implied.

## Extraction warnings

## Recorded filters

- News filter
- Max spread 2.0 pips
- Minimum lot check
- Symbol names found automatically
- Weekend handling: trade normally, no new entries on Saturday and Sunday, or close everything on Friday evening
- Low-liquidity hours: optional window without new entries
- Spread guard: maximum spread as a share of ATR and/or in price units
- Swap awareness: many brokers charge long crypto positions a daily swap (often about 20 % per year). The optional swap guard closes a position when its accumulated swap exceeds a share of its initial risk while it is still below a minimum profit in R.

## Risk controls

- Stop loss: ATR hard stop
- Take profit: Break-even after set profit in R, chandelier ATR trailing stop
- Position sizing: up to N added units per trend, only after price moved k × ATR further and every open unit is already at break-even or better, total risk cap of 3 % of the balance
