Scalper Strategy Improvements

Improved scalper exits, tighter risk controls, and better market filtering for short-term spot trades.

We improved the scalper bot logic to reduce fee bleed and avoid holding weak short-term trades for too long.

Changes included:

  • Reduced scalper maximum hold time to 10 minutes.
  • Added earlier controlled exits for weak trades instead of waiting for larger time stops.
  • Added profit-aware strategy exits so scalper sells are only blocked briefly, then allowed to prevent deeper losses.
  • Tightened scalper stop, trailing stop, breakeven, and take-profit settings.
  • Added ATR volatility filtering for scalper entries.
  • Added higher-timeframe bearish filtering for scalper buys.
  • Fixed restored/open scalper positions so style-specific exit settings are preserved.
  • Updated market filtering to use the active strategy instead of the configured parent strategy.

    • These changes are intended to make scalper trades faster, cleaner, and less vulnerable to repeated small losses from fees and stale exits.
