⚠️ Important Note:

Crypto symbols can show 40-75%+ fee drag due to high trade frequency.
Stocks are FREE on Alpaca, so the ~100 stock symbols have zero fee impact.
⚙️ Trading Strategy
Trade 10% range: buy support, sell resistance
Identifies stocks trading in a 10%+ range. Buys at support, sells at resistance, pocketing the 5% swing in between.
🎯 Best Suited For
Range-bound markets, consolidation periods
📜 Why This Strategy Works
Most stocks, most of the time, trade in ranges. Penelope doesn't need trends—she needs rhythm.
