Two independent engines: GSignalX opens risk; ProfitScouter banks winners at a clear Profit CASH floor. Trade Center and chart buttons never close trades. Bus JSON schema stays v1.

Brand names vs MT5 Navigator

Non-negotiable behaviours

• STOP pauses new entries and cancels pendings — leaves open tickets for Scouter.
• HALT pauses entries and the linked Scouter — still does not close tickets.
• FOLLOW (default): keep filling latest signal direction; Scouter owns exits.
• WAIT: block new-direction entries while opposite magic exposure remains.
• SPREAD (default): enforce InpMaxSpreadPt on entries.
• IGN: bypass the entry spread gate on that chart only (worse fills allowed; Scouter exits unchanged).
• FIXED (default 0.01): always use fixed lot. Press AUTOLOT only for intentional risk% sizing.
• AUTOLOT: size from balance × risk% ÷ ATR stop distance (fail-safe → fixed lot; Experts may log AUTO→FIX).
• EQ OFF / 5% / 10% / 20%: Account floating DD guide — OFF shows live DD only; 5/10/20 soft-block new entries at threshold. Prop peak DD is separate (Trade Info).
• PROP CLEAR: unlock Prop soft-STOP + equity grace (desk never flattens).
• REKICK: re-open drill when DIR live but drill closed.
• Compact panel (default input): investor outcome strip; Full adds engine rows + entry detail (InpPanelDensity).
• Profit path closes winners only (minimal set, biggest green first). Losers exit via adverse-bar Auto, opt-in Loss CASH, manual CUT/FLAT, or catastrophe SL — not via Profit CASH floors.
• One Scouter instance for “All symbols” — two harvest engines on the same book race.
• Trade Center / PropRisk soft STOP never closes tickets; only Scouter (or Harvest script) may close.
• Service OWN and chart entries must not double-fill the same magic.

Profit CASH & Loss CASH — best use

One cash number the desk can teach, set, and trust. Stock Scouter default: Profit CASH +100 (account or target currency). Micro/demo books still ladder smaller floors — see Fund Growth.

Three steps (scalp desk)

1. Set InpAccTargetMoney (Profit CASH) and align InpMinWinProfit / lock arm to the same floor.
2. Leave chart mode CASH ON (single floor). Use LAYER only when you intentionally want trail / window / partial %.
3. Press START. Watch panel lines Profit CASH +N and Loss CASH −N · OFF|ARMED.

Scouter chart buttons

Persists: PS{id}_RUN, _ADVEN, _CASH, _LOSS, _TRAIL. Service with the same Instance ID honors chart toggles when InpRespectChartRunState=true.

ATR / Percent TRAIL — best use Scouter 2.02

Independent winner protection. Does not replace Profit CASH floors, adverse AUTO, or Loss CASH. Manual BANK / CUT / FLAT always work.

Key inputs

Windows deploy (easy path)

You do not need to be a programmer. Download the toolkit, double-click one installer script, then turn a few switches on inside MetaTrader 5.

Prerequisites

• Windows 10/11
• MetaTrader 5 installed and opened at least once (creates the Data Folder)
• Demo account first
• Git optional — ZIP download is enough

Step 1 — Get the toolkit

Repository: gocitygroup/GsignalX-Velocity

B) Git (optional):

git clone https://github.com/gocitygroup/GsignalX-Velocity.git
cd GsignalX-Velocity

Step 2 — Install into MT5 (one double-click)

PowerShell alternative (advanced):

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\deploy\Deploy-GSignalX.ps1 -AllTerminals -Compile

Step 3 — Turn it on in MetaTrader 5

The installer cannot press these buttons for you:

1. Toolbar Algo Trading = green / ON
2. Tools → Options → Expert Advisors → allow algorithmic trading
3. Navigator → Services → start GsignalX_Service
4. Start ProfitScouter_Service (this one closes winners)
5. Start ProfitOpportunity_Grader
6. Attach GsignalX_Multisymbol_Dashboard (same magic as Service)
7. Optional: attach GsignalX_GocityGroup on M5 for the chart strip
8. Double-click deploy\Confirm-After-Start.bat

Telegram later: allow WebRequest URL https://api.telegram.org in Expert Advisors options.

Step 4 — What landed where

Data folder: MT5 → File → Open Data Folder → typically %APPDATA%\MetaQuotes\Terminal\<HASH>\.

Problems and fixes (most common)

Longer table: docs/WINDOWS_DEPLOY_SIMPLE.md · Gates: DEPLOYMENT_RUNBOOK.md · Sign-off: docs/RELEASE_v2.20_Integrations_OCO.md.

Host this manual on GitHub Pages

1. Repo Settings → Pages → Source: Deploy from a branch
2. Branch: main (or your default) · Folder: /docs
3. Save — site URL serves docs/index.html → this manual
4. docs/.nojekyll is included so Pages serves files as-is

Offline: open docs\Gsignalx_Velocity_Users_Manual.html in any browser after clone — no build step.

Grow the fund from €10 / $10

Profit CASH floors and fleet size must scale with balance. Stock Scouter default is now +100 for mid-size books — micro accounts and practice presets still use the ladder below (or load matching .set files).

Growth ladder (sample)

€100 raw-spread sample (production preset)

Load from Inputs → Load (overrides stock 100 when you need a micro floor):

• deploy/presets/GSignalX_100EUR_RawSpread.set
• deploy/presets/ProfitScouter_100EUR_RawSpread.set

Practice live packs — $20 / $50 / $100 (Standard + Raw)

Canonical risk geometry for micro books (also in PracticeSim.mqh). Trade Center buttons 20 · 50 · 100 · RAW · STD · SCALP · DAY · SWING show coach tips. Soft-apply updates fleet + category only — money floors stay in .set files. Load matching Service + Scouter presets, then restart Services.

ASAP / lock / minWin (Raw): 0.20/0.20/0.10 · 0.50/0.50/0.25 · 1.00/1.00/0.50. Standard uses higher floors. Style trade caps (coach): Scalp 4/6/8 · Day 2/3/4 · Swing 1/1/2. These are discipline rules, not forecasts — demo first.

Preset files: deploy/presets/GSignalX_Service_Practice_{BAND}_{Raw|Standard}.set + matching ProfitScouter practice presets. Expectancy / Kelly proxy detail: docs/PRACTICE_LIVE_SIM_20_50_100.md (pointer — canonical tables live here). Demo first; no virtual balance.

Trading session timing

All hours are broker server time — not your local timezone unless they coincide. Prop desks standardise on one session window and STOP outside it.

Controls

Beginner daily session recipe

Sample session clock (illustrative)

Trade Center draws an illustrative GMT strip (Asia · London · NY · Sydney). It does not replace broker session gates above — use it as a desk awareness aid only.

Beginner automated day

Run this once on demo until the loop feels boring. Boring is the goal. Use the preliminary M5 desk (GSignalX on M5 + Scouter adverse M5).

First settings that matter

Manual tools without full automation

• Read panel bias / Last signal; place your own tickets; keep Scouter for banking.
• Drag ProfitHarvest_Now for a one-shot bank (default account target 10; Confirm ON).
• Use HALT when walking away mid-book without wanting harvest to continue.

Advanced desk

Change these only when you can state the risk effect in one sentence.

Engine agreement

Stock often enables PP + SuperBollingerTrend; ATR SuperTrend optional. Optional: align bias with the TradingView publication before PLAY — chart study only; Velocity still owns fills.

FOLLOW vs WAIT

• FOLLOW — leave opens for Scouter; keep filling latest direction on free charts / fleet slots.
• WAIT — no new-direction entries while opposite-direction magic exposure remains. Prefer WAIT on news days or when book is mixed.

SPREAD vs IGN (entry spread gate)

Entries must pass InpMaxSpreadPt (default 40 points) unless you unlock that chart with IGN. Toggle is per chart, persists across restart, and is entry-only. Panel Spread row shows IGN when unlocked; turning IGN on while PLAY re-arms evaluation so a chart stuck on waiting: spread can fill now.

Preliminary chart (M5)

M5 is the preliminary (primary) desk timeframe for best paired performance of Velocity entries and ProfitScouter exits.

• Attach every GSignalX roster chart on M5.
• Set Service InpAdverseTimeframe = M5 (stock Service default is M15 — change it for this desk).
• Host DollarTarget on an M5 chart when using PERIOD_CURRENT.
• Do not mix M15 signal charts with M5 adverse (or the reverse) unless you intentionally accept mismatched exit speed.

Fleet fill

InpFleetTargetPairs (default 4) counts a pair complete when it has an open position or working pending. Fill stops at coverage. Cooldown InpFleetFillCooldownSec default 10. Unfilled pendings age out (InpPendMaxAgeMin, stock 240; EUR100 preset 60 on M5).

Adverse-bar Auto (loser path)

• BUY + ≥3 selling closed bars (or SELL + buying) → close same-symbol losers only.
• Only profit-engine path with allowLoss. Toggle with chart AUTO.
• Match TF to charts (M5 desk → M5 adverse TF).
• InpAdverseRequireSignal true (default) — needs conflicting bus direction.

Profit lock

Arm when peak ≥ InpProfitLockArm; close on give-back to max(50% of peak, MinWinProfit). Align arm with ASAP floor on micro accounts.

Multi-terminal bus

Common Files: %APPDATA%\MetaQuotes\Terminal\Common\Files\GSignalX\bus\v1\

• GSignalX → signals/{symbol}.json + heartbeat
• Scouter → scouter/snapshot.json
• Grader → grades/latest.json (advisory — never executes)

Multisymbol Service + Trade Center

Session roster recipe (FX START, Event SKIP, practice coach). How to run the live desk: System UI Best Use (2.20) · docs/RELEASE_v2.20_Integrations_OCO.md.

Best use case (prop / small fund)

1. Seed multi-class list (4 FX + metals/oils + crypto). Service + Dashboard + Scouter share one InpMagic. Micro practice: seed the preset symbol list (often EURUSD or EURUSD+GBPUSD only).
2. FX tab — START only the 2–4 pairs you will trade this session (e.g. EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, XAUUSD on CMD). STOP the rest; SUSPEND crypto overnight. At $20–$50 keep CMD/CRYPTO SUSPEND.
3. Fleet target = 4 (or 2 on funded challenge / $100 practice; 1 on $20). M5 Service; Scouter adverse TF = M5; Profit CASH ≈ 0.5–1% balance (stock 100 for mid-size; practice packs scale floors — see playbook).
4. Events = SKIP while calendar is enabled; Telegram [EVENT] on. Flip to TRADE only when the desk is watching and will hold through the print.
5. Session clock is awareness only — still use broker hour filter / Friday stop for hard gates. PLAY into London–NY (scalp: LDN·NY overlap; swing: grade band 12–17); fleet STOP at your cut-off (Scouter keeps managing open risk).
6. Practice coach — after loading the matching Raw/Standard .set, restart Services; panel buttons refresh coach + tip lines (expectancy / loss budget / secondary pairs). Do not expect buttons to hot-load Prop money inputs.
7. Never use Dashboard to flatten. PROP / HALT / pair STOP only pause new entries.

Production attach order

1. Deploy / compile (Clean-and-Deploy.bat or Deploy-GSignalX.ps1 -Compile).
2. Algo Trading ON. Allow WebRequest https://api.telegram.org if Telegram is enabled.
3. Start GsignalX_Service, ProfitScouter_Service, ProfitOpportunity_Grader.
4. Attach GsignalX_Multisymbol_Dashboard with seed list + shared magic.
5. Optional: M5 chart GSignalX with InpChartEntriesWhenService=false for strip/UI.
6. Run Confirm-After-Start.bat — expect Trade Center / Service version 2.20 + bus schema 1.

Multisymbol Service

• Chart-free roster scan + fleet fill; publishes live roster CSV under GSignalX/bus/v1/roster/{magic}.csv.
• Sets GSX_SVC_OWN_{magic}=1 so chart EAs defer fleet/auto-entries.
• Never reverse-closes — Scouter owns exits.
• Hot-reloads roster when Dashboard ADD/REMOVE advances GSX_SVC_ROSTER_SEQ_{magic}.

System UI (all surfaces)

Four on-chart UIs. Full maps: System UI Best Use.

• Trade Center — cats/fleet/carousel · PLAY/STOP/HALT · FIXED/EQ · REKICK · FollowDir · START/STOP ALL · PROP · practice · VERIFY · per-row MODE/STATE/REM
• Chart Signal panel — PLAY/STOP/HALT · flip FOLLOW|WAIT · FollowDir (this symbol) · SPREAD|IGN · FIXED|AUTOLOT · EQ cycle
• Chart roster strip — carousel ADD/SWAP/REM · page (buttons or mouse wheel) · per-row STATE/X
• ProfitScouter — START/STOP/AUTO · BANK / CUT / FLAT (only UI that closes tickets)

Default lot is FIXED 0.01. Desk/Chart soft STOP never closes — Scouter BANK/CUT/FLAT (or manual) does. Service hosts have no chart buttons.

Telegram notifier

WebRequest Telegram alerts (deals, PROP, EVENT, summaries, engine WARN). Status NotCfg / Connected / Verified / Error; Trade Center VERIFY button. Full trader vs investor recipes: Telegram Alerts.

PropRisk soft locks

Challenge pack trips sticky STOP (entries paused via RUN=0). Positions stay open for Scouter. Resume with PLAY after the rule condition clears or you intentionally override per firm policy.

System UI Best Use

Every on-chart control: Trade Center, Chart Signal panel, Chart roster strip, ProfitScouter. Bus schema v1. Operator note: docs/RELEASE_v2.20_Integrations_OCO.md · Integrations.

UI surfaces

Topology A vs B

Cross-surface rules

• STOP vs HALT (Desk + Chart): STOP = entries off, linked Scouter may keep harvesting; HALT = entries off and Scouter RUN off. Neither closes tickets.
• Scouter START/STOP arms harvest only — not the same as desk PLAY/STOP.
• BANK / CUT / FLAT on ProfitScouter are the only on-chart flatten controls.
• FOLLOW on the run strip = flip-wait. FOLLOW · BUY · SELL · WAIT = FollowDir gate (different control).
• Chart EQ cycles OFF→5→10→20. Trade Center EQ uses four discrete pads.

1 — Trade Center

A · Telegram / categories / fleet / carousel

B · Run strip

C · Lot / EQ

D · Status chips + REKICK

E · FollowDir (desk-wide)

F · Bulk pairs / Prop / Events / Practice

G · Per-row (paged roster)

2 — Chart Signal panel

Title bar is drag-only. Status rows (STOPPED/RUNNING, Scout, Spread, …) are labels.

3 — Chart roster strip

No PLAY / EQ / PROP / practice on the strip — use Trade Center or Chart panel.

4 — ProfitScouter

Desk/Chart PLAY/HALT write the same PS{id}_RUN when scout-link is enabled. Service Scouter has no buttons (can respect those GVs).

EQ vs Prop peak DD

• Account DD (EQ pads / chart EQ cycle) — floating drawdown guide. EQ OFF shows live DD but does not block entries.
• Prop peak DD — challenge math from peak equity; independent of Account DD. Leave InpPropMaxEquityDdPct at 0 unless you are on a challenge pack (then 5–10).
• PROP CLEAR unlocks soft-STOP, arms equity grace, and arms PLAY. Desk PLAY alone does not clear Prop.

Do / Don’t

Upgrade after deploy

1. Compile all terminals; reattach Trade Center; restart Service if used.
2. Confirm Automation shows FIXED and lot 0.01.
3. Press STOP once, then REM pairs you do not want.
4. PLAY / START only the live book. Use PROP CLEAR if an old equity rule left LOCK.

Session roster recipe remains in Multisymbol Desk. Confirm: Confirm-GSignalX.ps1 -Gate All — expect V2.20 markers.

Telegram alerts for traders and investors

Know fills, PROP locks, and desk health without watching MT5. Commercial desk alerts are plain-text WebRequest (Market compliant, no DLLs) — and VERIFY proves delivery, not just a valid bot token.

What you get

Where it runs

One bot token can be shared. Desk owns deal alerts while its heartbeat is fresh — Chart does not duplicate CLOSE. Service never sends OPEN/CLOSE.

Setup (5 steps)

1. Create a bot with BotFather; copy the token (never commit tokens; rotate if shared outside MT5).
2. Each recipient opens the bot and sends /start; copy up to 3 numeric chat IDs (never @username). Leave unused slots empty.
3. In MT5: Tools → Options → Expert Advisors → allow WebRequest URL https://api.telegram.org.
4. Enable Telegram inputs on the host(s) you need (Dashboard and/or Service and/or Chart).
5. On Trade Center press VERIFY until status shows Verified. You should get [TG] verify on working chats. If the strip shows skip chat …, that ID is dead until /start — alerts still go to healthy chats.

Trader best use (active prop desk)

Investor best use (monitor / Compact)

What each tag means

Community vs desk alerts

Desk alerts (this chapter) are a private bot → your numeric chat IDs (VERIFY, deals, PROP). Community Telegram — the channel is primary this update for the macro overview for day trading (composite current driver breakdown + cited data sources). The group is secondary for feedback. Never paste bot tokens or chat IDs into community spaces.

Full house rules and join links: Desk community.

Connect Velocity to the cloud

Keep Velocity running on your Windows PC and open or manage orders from a browser or phone on the GSignalX trading dashboard. No extra connector download — GsignalX_Service is the worker.

Connect in 4 steps

1. Register on trade.gsignalx.cloud with the email you will use in MT5.
2. Open Connect PC → Use Velocity toolkit and mint a worker registration token. Copy it once — treat it like a password.
3. MT5 → Tools → Options → Expert Advisors → allow WebRequest for https://trade-api.gsignalx.cloud.
4. Attach GsignalX_Service, open input group 16) GsignalX cloud connector (trade-api), fill the fields below, set InpCloudEnable=true, Algo Trading ON. The dashboard shows your toolkit online.

Where to put your email, URL and token

After the first successful connect, Service saves a worker token on this PC. Restarting MT5 resumes without a new registration token unless you revoke the worker on the dashboard.

What you can do from the dashboard

• See toolkit online / offline and your claimed MT5 account (login + server).
• Place market orders when remote opens are allowed — they use your Velocity magic so ProfitScouter can harvest them.
• Modify SL/TP on a ticket. Close all / profitable / losing / single ticket only when InpCloudAllowRemoteCloses=true.
• Drive run / stop from the dashboard control panel in cloud or hybrid mode.

Troubleshooting

Integrations the desk actually runs

Fund-manager view: who owns risk, who banks P/L, what is advisory, what is remote. Soft STOP never flattens the book. Educational — no profit guarantee.

Capability map

OCO chip (Trade Center + Chart)

Desk-wide BTN_OCO toggles enable. Seed-once from InpEnableOcoStraddle=true; after seed, UI / desk GV wins. Soft STOP and takeoff cancel straddle pendings.

Recommended production posture

• Topology A — DeskExecute ON, Service Yield ON (or Service stopped).
• FIXED 0.01 · EQ OFF unless you want a floating-DD brake.
• OCO default On; takeoff with BTN_OCO when you do not want straddles.
• Cloud: allowlist https://trade-api.gsignalx.cloud; keep remote closes OFF.
• Telegram: allowlist https://api.telegram.org; press VERIFY until Verified.
• Confirm: Confirm-GSignalX.ps1 -Gate All — expect hosts 2.20 + V2.20 markers.
• Native TP default OFF; turn ON only when you want structure TP on the book.

Native TP (Chart + Trade Center)

Desk-wide BTN_TP / BTN_TPTYPE share GSX_MS_TPENABLE_* / GSX_MS_TPTYPE_*. Toggle is O(1); Desk drains open pairs on the timer (no click bootstrap). Engineer deep-dive: docs/TP_NATIVE.md.

Filter signal sides · stay one-directional

Bias is chart-aligned to each D1 bar’s open→close outcome — not EMA, not MACD, and not joinDir. Engines still produce BUY/SELL; an armed bias lane filters which sides may enter via FollowDir.

Three lanes + Signal clear

Desk vs chart

• Trade Center — click Daily / Pre-D / Third-D / Signal. Desk-wide: each roster pair gets FollowDir from that pair’s bias for the chosen lane.
• Chart panel — same chips apply to this symbol only.
• Row bias cells arm the lane (not “copy this row’s value onto everyone”).
• Manual Mode / FDIR pads clear the armed bias lane.

Profit playbook

Structure first, then size, then harvest. Bias is a filter — not an exit.

1. Topology A — Trade Center DeskExecute ON, FIXED practice lot, Scouter CASH ON.
2. Read the columns — Daily / Pre / Third. Prefer Daily when the session is open.
3. Arm once — click desk Daily to filter the fleet. Use Signal when you want any side again.
4. NEUT — if Daily is doji (WAIT), wait for structure or clear to Signal; do not force size.
5. Bank with Scouter — never use a bias click as an exit. STOP blocks entries; it does not flatten.

Prop-firm behavioural playbook

Velocity optimises harvest process. Prop survival optimises drawdown, consistency, and session hygiene. Own both — and wire PropRisk soft locks to your challenge numbers.

Daily loss budget (PropRisk + trader)

Configure Trade Center PropRisk daily loss $/% and equity DD to match the challenge. Breach → sticky soft STOP (no flatten). Still set a personal walk-away: when soft STOP fires, do not revenge PLAY. Log it.

Consistency habits

• Same session hours every trading day (hour filter + Prop Friday/news windows).
• Same roster size unless laddering capital; manage roster from Trade Center.
• Include commission + swap so floors match closed P/L reporting.
• News: PropRisk CSV blackout and/or STOP 5–10 minutes before high-impact prints; WAIT if mixed book.
• Friday: respect Prop Friday hour and chart Friday stop; do not “squeeze one more.”
• Telegram: alert on PROP trips; investors use silent hours overnight — see Telegram Alerts.

Link integrity

Performance checklist

Best use is process control. Run these checks until they are muscle memory.

Pre-session

• Balance vs ASAP floor / MinWin / Lock arm still laddered?
• Algo Trading ON only because you intend to trade?
• Scouter panel: ASAP floor, win floor, Adverse Auto TF correct?
• Fleet target ≤ your capital rung?
• Spreads normal on roster pairs?
• Executive desk reviewed on gsignalx.cloud if you use cloud conviction?
• Macro overview checked on the trading channel (composite current driver breakdown + cited sources)?

Mid-session

• PLAY only on pairs you are willing to hold through drill?
• No stale pendings older than your age policy?
• Mixed book → consider WAIT?
• After harvest, confirm march re-entries are intentional?
• Spread blowout → STOP new entries?

End of day

• STOP all Velocity charts (or HALT if leaving harvest paused)
• Log closed P/L cycles vs floor (process adherence, not just PnL)
• Note any catastrophe SL hits — usually means adverse Auto TF too slow or session quality poor
• Friday: confirm no weekend FX risk
• Algo Trading OFF if leaving the machine
• Optional: consult the trading channel macro overview (composite drivers + cited sources), then share one process note there — or ask peers in the trading group

GSignalX desk community

Same invites as the GSignalX Executive / Xenon support desk. Three roles: Telegram channel = macro basis for day trading; Telegram group = feedback / peer setups; WhatsApp group = live meet-up / desk chat.

Join

House rules (short)

• Start with the channel for the day’s macro / driver quantitative basis before sizing the Velocity book.
• Process over hype — share what you ran (pairs, floor, session window), not account credentials.
• No bot tokens, WebRequest secrets, or numeric TG ChatIds in community chats (Telegram or WhatsApp).
• Bugs with steps to reproduce → prefer GitHub Issues; narrative desk feedback → Telegram group; live meet-up → WhatsApp.
• Blur or omit account numbers in screenshots.

Risk framework

Risk guidance belongs at every decision — not only in a final chapter. Velocity maps each layer to concrete desk knobs. Full audit: docs/RISK_MANUAL_AUDIT.md.

Layers A–Q → Velocity controls

Sizing ATR ≠ StrategicStop ≠ Scouter

Three different jobs. Confusing them causes oversize risk or premature “room” for losers.

Market-condition framework

Trend ≠ guaranteed continuation. Pullback ≠ guaranteed reversal. Breakout ≠ guaranteed follow-through. Support/resistance are decision zones, not guarantees.

Trade lifecycle risk

Block catalog: docs/risk/RISK_GUIDANCE_BLOCKS.md. Desk tips use the same IDs via RiskGuidance.mqh.

Phases

Asset-class difference matrix

Runtime taxonomy is FX / CMD / CR / OTH. Indices, equities, CFDs, and futures are documented here for decision quality; map them to OTH or the closest class and verify instrument specification for hours, tick value, and margin.

Portfolio / correlation

EURUSD long + GBPUSD long is overlapping EUR/GBP/USD exposure — not two independent “ideas.” Gold + USD pairs can concentrate the same macro bet. Cap fleet and diversity by exposure, not only by pair count.

Risk checklists & decision tree

Decision tree

Manual Trade Risk Check

• Market condition identified (trend / range / news / illiquid)
• Signal still valid (not aged past structure change)
• Entry zone / DIR aligned with FollowDir
• Invalidation level defined (sizing vs catastrophe SL clear)
• Position size calculated; leverage not confused with risk
• Event / news risk checked (EventGate)
• Spread / liquidity acceptable (or intentional IGN with smaller size)
• Correlated exposure within fleet policy
• Exit conditions defined (Profit CASH / adverse / Loss CASH)
• Emotional override detected? If yes — WAIT
