Smart take-profit and range exhaustion
The range-exhaustion and liquidity take-profit logic is built and measured but is not enabled in live operation: across 11,037 development trades it added +3.2R in total and landed exits further from the eventual extreme than doing nothing. These fields stay “Not recorded” until the engine produces them.
