📋 Strategy Structure

📊 This strategy is powered by a high-frequency trading engine capable of reacting swiftly to market volatility,
enabling fully automated trade execution based on real-time data analytics and predefined signal logic.

📈 Post-Close Reports: An automated end-of-day P&L summary and strategy performance report is generated daily, providing a quantitative breakdown of trade outcomes and system behavior.

📌 Note: Current-month contracts are typically used for short-term tactical decisions,
while next-month contracts reflect market expectations and are key to basis and calendar spread strategies.
Significant deviations between the two may indicate arbitrage opportunities, making regular comparison essential for informed futures trading.

📌 Interpretation Guide:

📌 Chart Interpretation:

• Event-Driven Sampling: Data points are logged whenever the price moves more than 0.1%, capturing only significant market shifts.
• X-axis represents event sequence rather than real time. More frequent price changes result in denser data, visualizing volatility concentration.
• Y-axis shows futures price. Color coding:
  Red indicates upward movement,
  Blue for downward movement, based on real-time deviation from the session’s opening price.
• ‘BUY’ and ‘SELL’ markers denote trade signal triggers and are used for evaluating long-short (dual position) strategies.
• This chart is designed for intra-day analysis; it does not reflect previous closing prices.
• It is also applicable to advanced use cases such as machine learning-based pattern recognition and high-frequency strategy testing.
