LongTermTrend_V1122
ARCHIVEDhybridllmRelaxed and simplified entry conditions, added multi-condition exit, introduced regime gates and reduced base exposure. Changes: 1) Relaxed long-term trend thresholds (sma_200_slope > 0, ret_20d > 0.03, cumret_252d > 0.15, looser dist_sma_50) to avoid overfitting and allow trades in validation. 2) Consolidated breakout path to use breakout_20 + rel_volume > 1.2 for cleaner momentum entries. 3) Kept MA+MACD entry (macd_hist > 0 & close > sma_50) as a simple momentum leg. 4) Exit is now any of: macd_hist < 0 OR price crossing below sma_50 OR drawdown deeper than 12% to improve risk control. 5) Added regime gates to avoid trading in clear downtrends, extreme volatility, or extreme bubble states. 6) Reduced base_position from 1.0 to 0.8 to lower leverage/exposure.

A robust strategy performs acceptably in most years rather than spectacularly in one — look for consistency across regimes, not a single outlier year.
