PriceMomentum_V1031

ARCHIVEDhybrid

llmReduced base size to 0.6 to lower drawdown risk; added regime gates to avoid DOWNTREND/HIGH_VOLATILITY/expensive-bubble periods; strengthened exits with drawdown, deeper negative 20d return, sma50 breakdown and extreme volatility stop; added simple position scaling (full size on small pullbacks under sma20, reduced size in elevated vol); simplified and consolidated entry logic to retain momentum + trend confirmation while reducing overfitting.
