📊 Bot Update – Cost-Aware Evolution (no magic, just realism)

Quiet markets don’t mean a quiet bot — they mean a thinking one.

Over the last iterations we rolled out two important upgrades to the entry logic:

1️⃣ Dynamic slippage buffer

Instead of assuming worst-case slippage all the time, the bot now adapts its cost buffer to real market conditions:

tighter spreads → smaller slippage assumption

deeper orderbooks → less pessimism

Bad liquidity still gets punished. Good liquidity finally gets treated fairly.

2️⃣ Maker ≠ Taker edge logic

Maker entries and taker entries are no longer judged by the same cost model:

Maker-first entries use a reduced cost expectation

Taker fallback stays strict and conservative

Result: no reckless trades, but fewer missed good ones.

Nothing was “loosened”.
Costs are still sacred.
We just stopped pretending every market moment is equally bad.

⏳ What’s next?

Now we do the hardest part in trading system development:

wait.

The bot will run unchanged for the next hours to days.

We’ll observe:

how often entries are attempted vs skipped

whether skips are still cost-driven or now signal-driven

how often Maker entries actually get a fair chance

Only after that comes the next analysis.

No rushing. No overfitting. No hindsight heroics.

Markets don’t reward impatience.
Systems don’t evolve by guessing — only by watching.

More updates soon.
