🦝 RACCOON v1.0.0 — Weekend XYZ Reconciliation

The XYZ weekend is dead — except for the reconciliation gap. Fri 17:00 ET through Sun 18:00 ET, trade.xyz has no external pricing for equities or commodities. The market trades against an internal 30-min EWMA oracle that drifts based on impact-price activity. When external pricing RESUMES Sunday evening, the internal-implied price snaps to the real external value. That snap is the edge.

Why this strategy exists

Most Senpi strategies activate 24/7. Raccoon is the opposite — it ONLY runs during the weekend window (Fri 22:00 UTC → Mon 00:00 UTC). Outside that window, the producer outputs OUTSIDE_WEEKEND_WINDOW and does nothing.

This is the structural pricing gap documented by trade.xyz:

• 23/5 external coverage: Sun 6pm ET - Fri 5pm ET (with 5-6pm ET daily gaps)
• Weekend internal-only: Fri 5pm ET → Sun 6pm ET
• Reconciliation point: Sun 6pm ET when external pricing resumes

When sentiment accumulates during the weekend (news, geopolitical events, related-market moves), it shows up as directional pressure on the internal oracle even without external anchoring. Raccoon positions in that direction, captures the snap-back when external pricing returns Monday open.

CRITICAL RULES

RULE 1: Weekend window is hard-coded

Producer checks UTC time at the start of each tick. Outside Fri 22:00 UTC → Mon 00:00 UTC, no MCP calls, no signals. Saves cost and prevents false weekday signals.
