HFT Paper Trader Prov1.1.0

Developers can use the multi-indicator scoring system to backtest new trading strategies on historical data, adjusting parameters like indicator weights or regime filter thresholds. This allows rapid iteration without financial risk, using the paper portfolio and trade ledger to evaluate performance.

The framework can power an autonomous agent that continuously scans the watchlist, executes paper trades based on signal scores and regime filters, and logs outcomes. The self-improvement loop via observations.md enables the agent to learn from losses and refine its strategy over time.

Instructors or students can use the paper trader to understand high-frequency trading mechanics, including indicator confluence, position sizing with Kelly criterion, and drawdown controls. The dual regime filter illustrates trend-following logic in a concrete, hands-on manner.

Quantitative analysts can study the impact of the 3% max risk cap and quarter-Kelly sizing on portfolio volatility and drawdowns. By tweaking parameters in the stop-loss and position sizer, they can test various risk models in a simulated environment.

Traders can use the paper trader to maintain a real-time dashboard of portfolio state (portfolio.json) and trade ledger (journal.json). The auto-observation logging helps track emotional or strategic lessons, making it a comprehensive journaling tool for discretionary traders.
