BUY BTCUSDLOSS -1.00R

Step by step: how the agents decided

1. 5 · Risk room: is the trade worth taking?

   Planned R:R is 1:2.29.

   • Reward-to-risk ≥ 1:2. Planned R:R is 1:2.29.
   • Daily loss limit. Today's P&L is -0.97%, inside the 2% limit.
   • Backtested edge on this market. Backtest over 2.5 days found only 2 qualifying setup(s) — not enough to prove an edge, so the office trades this market at half risk.

2. 6 · Graduate council: do the specialists agree?

   The graduate council is split 2–2, so size stays unchanged.

   • Nova · Inside a London/New York killzone. It's 23:00 UTC, outside the London (07–10) and New York (12–15) killzones. Moves here are slower and fake-outs are more common.
   • Rex · Momentum not exhausted. 15M RSI is 62, with room to run up.
   • Ivy · Stop sized to volatility. The stop is 2.7× the 5M ATR, a sensible size.
   • Kai · Entry in discount/premium. The entry sits in the premium half of yesterday's range. Longs from there have poorer reward-to-risk.
