PriceMomentum_V1259

ARCHIVEDhybrid

llmAdded regime gates to avoid downtrends/high-volatility/extreme-bubble regimes; simplified and consolidated entry logic (breakout OR healthy long-term trend OR strong 20d momentum) and blocked entry when vol_pctile>0.9; improved exits by adding a wider 20d stop (-2%), a drawdown stop (15%), and a trend exit (close < sma_50); reduced base position to 0.8 to lower risk.
