Breakout paper: 150 names scanned every day

From August 16, about 150 names are scanned daily for 20-day highs. 1% of equity per seat.

From August 16 I scan about 150 names every day and paper only the 20-day-high breaks. Each seat risks 1% of equity, never more than eight at once. On August 23: one new, seven held.

Rule name: Setup breakout_rr, minimum reward/risk 2.0.

Why wide scan

Chart breakouts are sparse on mega-caps. The loop scans wide, sizes by 1R, and caps open positions (8 max, 15% notional per name).

Backtest anchor

Liquid book 2019→now at min_rr=2.0: many stops, fewer targets, payoff ~1.8–2.2 when targets hit.
