⚡ Immortal Prime — User Guide

Dumb entry. Smart exit. The signal is a simple cross. The edge lives in the management layer.

🎛️ The 5 Dials

Everything is a combination of these. Set them in order.

What stops the bleeding

1️⃣ ENTRY MODE — who pulls the trigger

ModeBehaviour

OpenOnStart

Fires instantly when you start the bot. Direction = your Direction param.

AttachToManual

You open the trade by hand. Bot adopts it and manages it.

SignalCross

🤖 Full auto. Bot watches the MAs and enters by itself.

💡 OpenOnStart and AttachToManual ignore Signal Mode entirely — they're manual tools.

2️⃣ SIGNAL MODE — A or B (SignalCross only)

🅰️ Mode A — SMA Cross (instant)

SMA5 crosses SMA20 → ENTER NOW

• Cross up → LONG. Cross down → SHORT.
• Fires on the closed bar. No waiting.
• ✅ Never misses a move.
• ⚠️ Enters at the worst price of the swing (right after the pop).
• ⚠️ Fires often → lots of chop.

🅱️ Mode B — EMA Cross + Retest (patient)

Step 1: EMA9 crosses SMA20 → ⏳ ARMED (no trade yet)
Step 2: Price pulls back and TOUCHES the EMA9 → ✅ ENTER

• ✅ Much better entry price. Fewer, cleaner trades.
• ⚠️ Can miss explosive moves that never pull back.
• 🛡️ Three guards stop a stale setup firing late:

GuardWhat it does

Invalidation

EMA crosses back → arm cancelled

Expiry

No touch in N bars → arm cancelled

Trade close

Arm wiped. A fresh cross is required.

💡 Allow Same-Bar Retest = OFF means the touch must happen on a later bar than the cross.

🎯 ANGLE FILTER — kills flat chop (both modes)

Only take crosses where the MA is genuinely steep.

angle = atan( slope-per-bar ÷ unit )

SettingMeaning

Atr (recommended)

unit = ATR. Self-scaling. Works on gold and NAS.

Pips

unit = fixed pips. Must retune per instrument.

Read the scale:

AngleMeaning (ATR mode)

45°

MA climbing 1 full ATR per bar 🚀

20°

MA climbing ~0.36 ATR per bar ← your default

0°

Dead flat 💤

• Long needs angle ≥ +20°. Short needs angle ≤ −20°.
• A flat MA can never pass. That's the point.
• Mode A gates at the cross. Mode B gates at the retest fire.

🚨 Calibrate before you filter. Run once with Min Angle = 0 and read the dashboard/logs to learn your real angle range. Then set the threshold. Set it blind at 20° and you may get zero trades.

🚨 THE WHIPSAW TRAP

On a trend-cross entry, limit adds only fill when the signal is wrong. They can't help a winner (price runs away from them) — they can only enlarge a loser.

Real example from your log: price dipped (stop-add filled), then ripped (3 limit-adds filled). All five legs lost. Base-only loss would've been −$320. With adds: −$1,806. 🔥

✅ For a trend cross, use Stop.

4️⃣ EXIT MODE — how you get out

All three share one basket stop that only ever tightens. Never loosens. 🔒

Trailing — pure ratchet

Price hits BE Trigger → stop jumps to breakeven
Then → stop follows [Trail Distance] behind, in [Trail Step] jumps

Chop inside the trail band doesn't touch you. A real reversal takes you out.

FixedTP — three scale-outs

TP1 → close X% + cancel all pendings + stop to BE 🛡️ de-risk moment
TP2 → close Y%
TP3 → close Z%

FixedTP_ThenTrail — bank, then ride 🏆

TP1 → partial + BE
TP2 → partial
Then → trail the runner

⚠️ TP% is of the basket SNAPSHOT taken at TP1 — not of what's left. TP1+TP2+TP3 = 100 → flattens exactly. < 100 → leaves a runner.

🧭 BE ANCHOR — the hidden lever

This one setting quietly decides how often winners scratch.

AnchorStop sits atEffect

AverageEntry

Your blended cost

After adds, this sits close to price → scratches easily ⚡

FirstEntry

Your original entry

Protects the good early fill → more room, more risk 🛡️

💡 Adds pull your average toward price. So "breakeven" isn't where you think it is.

5️⃣ SAFETY — the three seatbelts 🔒

Added in v6 after a real −$1,806 loss. Each one alone would have prevented it.

LayerWhat it does

Protect Pendings With SL

Every pending add is born with a broker-side stop. A spike-fill can't go naked.

Orphan kill-switch

A fill that can't be protected (price already past the stop) is closed instantly.

Basket Max Loss $

Floating loss crosses the limit → flatten everything. Bounds any failure.

🩸 What went wrong before v6: an add filled inside a spike, its stop was already invalid, so no stop attached at all. The naked leg ran 14 hours and lost −$1,080 alone.

📅 DAILY CONTROLS

ControlWhat it does

Daily Cap

Equity − day-start balance breaches the cap → flatten + halt until tomorrow

Daily Flatten

At a set clock time → close everything, cancel pendings

Reset Hour

When "tomorrow" begins

⏰ All times are UTC. No DST handling. Set Reset Hour to your broker's daily boundary.
