Kodiak Strategy

🐻 KODIAK v7.0.0 — SOL Alpha Hunter

One asset. Every signal. Scanner enters. DSL exits.

---

⛔ CRITICAL AGENT RULES

RULE 1: Install path is /data/workspace/skills/kodiak-strategy/

RULE 2: THE SCANNER DOES NOT EXIT POSITIONS

When the scanner sees an active SOL position, it outputs NO_REPLY. DSL is the ONLY exit mechanism. v1.1.1 had a thesis exit that chopped positions before DSL could trail them. v2.0 removes it entirely.

RULE 3: MAX 1 POSITION — SOL only

RULE 4: Scanner output is AUTHORITATIVE

RULE 5: Verify runtime is installed on every session start

Run openclaw senpi runtime list. Runtime must be listed. The position tracker and DSL exit are handled by the plugin runtime.

RULE 6: Never modify parameters. Never increase leverage above 7x.

RULE 7: 120-minute cooldown after consecutive losses

What Changed From v1.1.1

| v1.1.1 | v2.0 | |---|---| | Thesis exit active in RIDING mode | Removed — DSL manages all exits | | DSL state missing wallet + size | All fields included | | Leverage 10-12x | Capped at 7x | | Retrace 0.03 (3% ROE = 0.3% price at 10x) | 0.08 (8% ROE = 1.14% price at 7x) | | strategy_id discarded in run() | Captured and passed to DSL builder | | SOL SHORT ran 13h unprotected | Every position protected from second 1 |

---

v1.1.1 Proof of Concept

Kodiak's best trade: SOL SHORT, entry $90.36, DSL trailed to Tier 4 (+44% ROE), exit at $85.86, realized +$134 profit. The scanner found the setup. DSL managed the exit perfectly — locked 85% of peak, gave back only $3 from top.

The problem: DSL was manually patched onto this trade 13 hours after entry because the state file was missing wallet fields. v2.0 fixes this permanently.

The Three-Mode Lifecycle

MODE 1 — HUNTING (default)

Scan SOL every 3 minutes. All signals must align (4h trend, 1h momentum, SM, funding, OI, volume). Score 10+ to enter. When a position opens, switch to MODE 2.

MODE 2 — RIDING

Active position. DSL manages the exit via the plugin runtime. Scanner outputs NO_REPLY. The scanner does NOT re-evaluate the thesis. It does NOT close positions. The plugin DSL trails the position through Phase 1 protection and Phase 2 trailing tiers. When DSL closes the position → switch to MODE 3.

MODE 3 — STALKING

DSL locked profits. Watch for a reload opportunity. ALL reload conditions must pass: fresh momentum impulse, OI stable, volume present, funding not crowded, SM still aligned, 4h trend intact.

If reload fires → re-enter same direction, switch to MODE 2. If kill conditions trigger → reset to MODE 1.

Cron Setup

Scanner (3 min, main):

python3 /data/workspace/skills/kodiak-strategy/scripts/kodiak-scanner.py

How KODIAK Trades

Entry (score >= 10 required)

Every 3 minutes, the scanner evaluates SOL across all signal sources:

| Signal | Points | Required? | |---|---|---| | 4h trend structure (higher lows / lower highs) | 3 | Yes | | 1h trend agrees with 4h | 2 | Yes | | 15m momentum confirms direction | 0-1 | Yes | | 5m alignment (all 4 timeframes agree) | 1 | No | | SM aligned with direction | 2-3 | Hard block if opposing | | Funding pays to hold the direction | 2 | No | | Volume above average | 1-2 | No | | OI growing | 1 | No | | BTC confirms move | 1 | No | | RSI has room | 1 | No (blocks overbought/oversold) | | 4h momentum strength | 1 | No |

Maximum score: ~18. Minimum to enter: 10.

Conviction-Scaled Leverage

| Score | Leverage | |---|---| | 10-11 | 7x | | 12+ | 7x |

Conviction-Scaled Margin

| Score | Margin | |---|---| | 10-11 | 20% of account | | 12-13 | 25% | | 14+ | 30% |

Exit Management

DSL exit is handled by the plugin runtime via runtime.yaml. The position_tracker scanner auto-detects position opens/closes on-chain. See runtime.yaml for configuration details.

Monitor positions:

• openclaw senpi dsl positions — list all DSL-tracked positions
• openclaw senpi dsl inspect — full position details

Why SOL-Only at 7x Leverage

---

Risk

| Rule | Value | |---|---| | Max positions | 1 (SOL only) | | Max leverage | 7x | | Phase 1 retrace | 0.08 | | Daily loss limit | 10% | | Cooldown | 120 min after 3 consecutive losses |

---

Runtime Setup

Step 1: Set your strategy wallet address in runtime.yaml:

sed -i 's/${WALLET_ADDRESS}//' /data/workspace/skills/kodiak-strategy/runtime.yaml

Replace `` with the actual wallet address.

Step 2: Set telegram chat ID for notifications:

sed -i 's/${TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID}//' /data/workspace/skills/kodiak-strategy/runtime.yaml

Replace `` with the actual Telegram chat ID.

Step 3: Install the runtime:

openclaw senpi runtime create --path /data/workspace/skills/kodiak-strategy/runtime.yaml

Step 4: Verify:

openclaw senpi runtime list

Bootstrap Gate

On EVERY session start, check config/bootstrap-complete.json. If missing:

1. Read the senpi-trading-runtime skill — it provides all CLI commands for runtime management and DSL position inspection.
2. Verify Senpi MCP
3. Set wallet in runtime.yaml: sed -i 's/${WALLET_ADDRESS}/ACTUAL_ADDRESS/' /data/workspace/skills/kodiak-strategy/runtime.yaml
4. Set Telegram in runtime.yaml: sed -i 's/${TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID}/CHAT_ID/' /data/workspace/skills/kodiak-strategy/runtime.yaml
5. Install runtime: openclaw senpi runtime create --path /data/workspace/skills/kodiak-strategy/runtime.yaml
6. Verify runtime installed: openclaw senpi runtime list
7. Remove old DSL cron (if upgrading): run openclaw crons list, delete any cron containing dsl-v5.py via openclaw crons delete
8. Create scanner cron (3 min, isolated)
9. Write config/bootstrap-complete.json
10. Send: "KODIAK is online. Watching SOL. DSL managed by plugin runtime. Silence = no conviction."

If bootstrap exists, still verify runtime and scanner cron on every session start.

Notification Policy

ONLY alert: Position OPENED (direction, leverage, score, reasons), position CLOSED (DSL exit with P&L), risk guardian triggered, critical error. NEVER alert: Scanner found no thesis, thesis re-eval passed, any reasoning.

Expected Behavior

| Metric | Expected | |---|---| | Trades/day | 1-3 | | Avg hold time | 1-12 hours | | Win rate | ~45-55% | | Avg winner | 20-50%+ ROE | | Avg loser | -20 to -40% ROE |

---

Files

| File | Purpose | |---|---| | scripts/kodiak-scanner.py | SOL thesis builder + stalk/reload | | scripts/kodiak_config.py | Config helper (MCP, state, cooldowns) | | config/kodiak-config.json | Wallet, strategy ID, configurable variables | | runtime.yaml | Runtime config for plugin (DSL exit + position tracker) |
