1. Entry 04 Sep 2026 20:05:03 UTC

   Opened 0.04 lots at 4432.231, stop 4443.569, strategy target 4409.554 — the level the rule was aiming for, not an order resting at the broker.

2. No stop changes

   The trade did not reach the first protection stage (+0.6R).

The range-exhaustion and liquidity take-profit logic is built and measured but is not enabled in live operation: across 11,037 development trades it added +3.2R in total and landed exits further from the eventual extreme than doing nothing. These fields stay “Not recorded” until the engine produces them.
