Two independent changes bundled:
- Position sizing back to 4 positions x 5x equity notional at 20x leverage
(20x total account notional, ~5% liquidation cushion) — aggressive book
size by operator choice, for bigger single positions on a small account.
- Forced short-coverage signal floor lowered 0.75 -> 0.4. At 0.75, a
long-leaning board left every bearish candidate below the bar, so no short
ever opened and the book became a one-directional long bet. 0.4 keeps
genuine directional signals so the book actually hedges — which matters
more, not less, at 20x.
