PriceMomentum_V0656

ARCHIVEDhybrid

llmRestricted trading to UPTREND and non-high volatility/bubble regimes; added RSI and tightened cumret guard to avoid weak breadth entries; expanded exit logic to include close < sma_50 and short-term deterioration (ret_5d < -2%) to reduce drawdowns; added position scaling: halve size in high volatility (vol_pctile > 0.8) and go flat if drawdown exceeds 35%. These structural changes prioritize safer entries, faster exits, and volatility-aware sizing.
