Core principle

Weights are applied at the domain level:
  • curator / onchain / tradfi / social / technical / events
They must sum to 1.0 (±0.001).

Presets

Use when:
  • you have strong discretionary edge
  • you want fewer, higher-conviction decisions
  • you mostly trade majors
Use when:
  • narrative rotations are frequent
  • you want early detection over precision
  • you’re operating a wider basket
Use when:
  • ETF flows and basis/carry dominate price
  • you mostly trade BTC/ETH

Adjusting weights safely

1

Change one thing at a time

Adjust a single domain by ±0.05 and re-normalize to sum to 1.0.
2

Verify your producers are actually producing

A domain weight is useless if the producer endpoints aren’t configured.
3

Paper trade first

Run at least 14 days in paper mode before any live execution.

Kill switch levels (what they do)

The kill switch is an escalating restriction mechanism.
  • Level 0: off
  • Level 1–4: increasing restriction (configured via kill_switch.* thresholds)
Check status:
Reset (only after investigation):

Operational recommendation: paper trading minimum

Treat paper mode as a burn-in period: verify producer health, confirm signal cadence, and validate your weight profile before risking capital.
