ARCHIVEDhybrid

llm1) Added regime gates: only trade in UPTREND and non-high-volatility regimes and avoid bubble extremes to reduce overfitting and avoid bad macro periods. 2) Simplified and strengthened entry: keep strong ret_20d breakout branch and add a robust momentum branch requiring ret_20d>5%, either sma_50 cross or breakout_20, positive sma_50_slope and moderate vol (vol_pctile<0.7) to improve validation stability. 3) Improved exit rules: multi-condition exit (5d stop-loss, negative MACD histogram, or falling sma_50_slope) to limit drawdowns. 4) Position sizing rules: scaled exposures by volatility and bubble state (lower size in high vol or bubbles). 5) Lowered base position to 0.8 to reduce leverage/turnover and improve walk-forward robustness.
