What the strategy does, in the factory's words.
- At startOpen one position in ETH/USDC 0.05% on Base. Range width comes from volatility: ±2σ of the expected 24 h price move (σ from hourly pool prices over the last 24 h), never narrower than −0.99% … +1% and never wider than 30% in total. Centered on the pool price at entry. Both tokens go in, in the ratio the range needs; the missing part is swapped at entry.
- Price is inside the rangeDo nothing. The position earns swap fees; they stay in the position and are not reinvested.
- Price stays outside the range for 30 minClose the position and reopen it around the current price with the same width rule (σ recomputed). Costs gas and a swap. Not more often than once per hour.
- Market regime indicator says “unstable” (score above the 80th percentile of the training period)Postpone any recenter for up to 12 h. If a recenter happens while unstable, the range is 2× as wide.
- End of the 7d horizonRemove the liquidity and keep both tokens as they are, without a swap.
- NeverSell because the price falls (there is no stop-loss); move liquidity to another pool.
