What makes SENTINEL different

- Real risk controls: Basket equity trail, hard basket TP/SL, and max drawdown %—plus cool-downs to avoid revenge trading.

How it trades
- Smart S/R zones: Clusters of swing highs/lows are merged into “critical zones,” with ATR-based width that adapts to volatility.
- Two entry styles (you choose):
- Breakout: Buy/Sell as price clears the zone with a small buffer.
- Retest: After a break, wait for a quick pullback into the zone and re-break.
- Intrabar precision: Touch-to-fire logic enables entries mid-bar (not only on candle close).
- Optional pending stops: Arms Buy Stop / Sell Stop just beyond the trigger to catch fast moves.
- Trade pacing: Min Bars Between Entries and per-direction caps prevent over-trading.
