🦌 STAG v1.0.0 — Parabolic-Run Hunter
Ride the HYPE-class runs without getting chopped out on the gyrations. Stag is the entry-side pair for the new parabolic_runner DSL preset — enter only when there's a real parabolic-runner setup, then let the widest DSL in the catalog hold the position through the 5–8% intraday pullbacks that would kill a normal trend trail.
Why this strategy exists
Reference setup: HYPE 2026-05, $40 → $65 over 16 days. Through the middle of that run (May 17–25) there are at least 5 distinct 5–10% intraday gyrations on the 1h chart. Standard fleet DSL trails would chop a position out on any of them, missing the rest of the run. The problem isn't the DSL — it's that the DSL is making local-volatility decisions when the trade calls for structural-trend decisions.
Stag's answer is twofold:
- Strict 5-gate entry so we only fire when there's actually a parabolic to ride (not a normal 5–10% trend).
- Ship paired with
parabolic_runnerDSL — max_loss 25%, retrace 18, 2 consecutive breaches required, late first lock (+15%), light early tiers, 14d outer bound. Built specifically to accept the gyrations.
The trade-off is honest: this preset bleeds in chop. If the parabolic doesn't materialize, Stag gives back more than let_winners_run would. That's why the 5-gate filter is strict — the only way the wide DSL pays is if you've correctly identified the setup.
