## What's Next (Post-Restart)

1. **Verify MT5 Compilation** - Check Journal for successful v1.12 compile
2. **Monitor New Trades** - Watch for "Volatility filter BLOCKED" messages
3. **Compare Performance** - Expect fewer trades but higher quality
4. **Backtest** - Run strategy tester on v1.12 vs v1.11

## Key Code References

### Volatility Filter (lines 200-223)
```cpp
bool CheckVolatilityFilter() {
   if(InpUseVolatilityFilter && ATRHandle != INVALID_HANDLE) {
      double atr[1], close = iClose(_Symbol, _Period, 0);
      if(CopyBuffer(ATRHandle, 0, 0, 1, atr) > 0) {
         double atrPct = (atr[0] / close) * 100;
         if(atrPct < InpMinATRPercent) {
            Print("Volatility filter BLOCKED: ATR too low");
            return false;
         }
      }
   }
   // ... ADX filter ...
   return true;
}
```

### Trade Entry Call (line 616)
```cpp
if(!CheckVolatilityFilter())
   return;  // Skip trade - filters not passed
```

## Notes for Future Self

- All work saved to Gitea - accessible from any machine
- MT5 data persists in Docker volume
- v1.12 designed to reduce choppy market losses
- If filters are too aggressive, adjust: `InpMinATRPercent` or `InpMinADX`

**Session End - Safe to restart**
