ST12 Bot (Short): Entry, Averaging, and Smart-Take Logic

1. General Concept

ST12 is a trend short bot operating on the 12-hour timeframe (12H).

Idea: enter on a confirmed signal in the direction of the medium-term downtrend, manage the position with strict risk rules, and exit via Smart-Take — a dynamic take-profit that moves top-down (from overbought toward neutral/oversold) while the setup remains active.

2. Workflow

2.1. 12H Context

• Market analysis on 12H: less noise, higher signal significance.
• Phase shifts (Bull / Neutral / Bear) are reflected in profile settings.

2.2. Entry Setup (Short)

• Screening by liquidity, 24h dynamics, and funding.
• On 12H, look for downtrend continuation or reversal after overbought.
• Entry is confirmation-only.

2.3. Admission Filters

• 24h change (avoid shorting a fresh bottom after a dump).
• Funding: acceptable rate and minimum charge interval (e.g., ≥ 4h).
• Exclude low-liquidity / unsupported assets.

2.4. Position Opening

• Open a short (perpetuals).
• Position size per risk parameters (percent of balance / fixed amount with cap).
• Immediately enable Smart-Take; add trailing and/or break-even stop if needed.

2.5. Trade Management: Smart-Take

• Smart-Take is not static. The profit-lock level steps down from overbought toward neutral/oversold while the 12H setup remains valid.
• Exit on a counter signal. As soon as an opposite (long) setup appears on any control timeframe (12H/6H/4H/2H/1H), the bot checks that unrealized profit ≥ the minimum threshold for that TF (configured in the Smart-Take block).
• Example: a counter setup prints on 4H → close if profit ≥ the 4H threshold; otherwise, wait for the next valid signal/TF.
• Why this works. In trends, Smart-Take lets you stretch 8–20%+ without early exits and without giving back too much when momentum fades.

3. Averaging Logic (12H Approach)

When conditions are met, the bot adds contracts (increases the short), recalculates the average entry closer to market, and shifts the Smart-Take level accordingly.

4. Advantages of ST12

• High-significance signals thanks to 12H.
• Top-down Smart-Take: dynamic locking as momentum fades.
• Strict averaging: confirmation-only + cascade to lower TFs.
• Phase adaptation via profiles and coefficients.

How ST12 works in simple terms

1. Enter on a 12H signal with no conflicts on lower TFs.
2. Keep the trade running until a counter setup starts to form on any control TF.
3. If that bounce forms and profit meets the TF threshold, the bot closes the trade in profit.
