## 🛡️ INSTITUTIONAL RISK MANAGEMENT FEATURES
1. **Smart Session Liquidity Gate:**
- Filters out illiquid Asian consolidation and overnight swap rollover noise (00:00 – 08:00 server time).
- Only trades during peak London and New York momentum windows (08:00 – 18:00 server time).
2. **Higher Timeframe Trend Bias (H1 200 EMA):**
- Strictly trades in the direction of the dominant macro institutional trend.
- Long breakouts are only permitted when price is above the H1 200 EMA; short breakouts are only permitted below.
3. **Consecutive Loss Circuit Breaker:**
- Automatically halts new entries for 180 minutes if 2 consecutive stop losses occur.
- Completely shields your account from choppy, range-bound consolidation fakeouts.
4. **Dynamic ATR Risk/Reward Geometry:**
- Adaptive Stop Loss (1.3x ATR) and Take Profit (3.0x ATR) adapt to current market volatility automatically.
5. **Early Breakeven Profit Lock:**
- Once a position advances +500 points into profit, Stop Loss is automatically shifted to Entry + 50 points buffer, locking in a risk-free trade.
6. **Prop Firm & Daily Drawdown Guard:**
- Built-in maximum daily loss cap (e.g. 5% equity limit) guarantees compliance with prop firm rules.
7. **Broker Freeze Level & Stop Level Protection:**
- Fully compliant with MetaQuotes Market rules; prevents any freeze level modification errors across all brokers.
