- lib/instrument-specs.ts (pure, tested): the CME specs — point value,
tick size, one-tick spread, Yahoo ticker — replacing POINT_VALUES; the
draw's maths; the 12-hour hold cap; the micro for drain and extra-day
legs; reading a firm's list (the master's, or the old rules against an
older master: this machine's enabled set less bans, the symbol map).
- lib/instruments.ts: the one module the trading paths ask. Measures every
future's daily move from Yahoo's hourly candles once per trade date, and
shows entry cost (a tick of spread plus Tradovate's fee parameters or
TopstepX's last measured fill) without ever choosing by it.
- Futures Auto draws one root per batch from the batch firm's list: movement
per dollar of spread early in the session with a 10% floor each, sliding
to the fastest movers by the last entry; nothing expected to hold 12h or
more; micros only if nothing else is listed. Every draw logs its odds.
- The batch is chosen before its instrument, and a group that can't trade
anything yields to the next. Copy trade matches the held contract against
the listed roots and won't copy an instrument it can't identify. Manual
legs, manual orders and drain/extra-day legs follow the lists.
- DXtrade firms rank their own list whatever root was drawn.
- Capabilities, the dashboard's trade bar and contract resolves follow the
lists; the trade bar and scheduler default to Auto. The master link
reconnects when master_dashboard_url changes, and the catalog drops
?since after a switch so two masters' versions can't collide.
- Reports carry each futures firm's instrumentStats for the master's Firms
page; GET /api/instruments shows them (?simulate=N runs the draw, no
orders); the Settings page shows the lists read-only.

Why the autotrader sometimes broke after a weekend until `pm2 restart`:
`next start` only logs uncaught errors, so nothing ever crashed, and a few
paths could leave a client dead for the life of the process.
Tradovate: a closed socket scheduled exactly one re-login, with no catch —
one failure during weekend maintenance (or a rate-limit penalty returned as
a 200 without a token) and the client never came back. connectAndAuth is now
a single-flight loop that never throws: jittered backoff capped at 5 min,
penalty tickets waited out, captcha demands backed off. A 15s watchdog
abandons silent, never-authorized or stuck-closing sockets and stale syncs;
renewal falls back to a fresh login; orders fail fast (OrderNotPlacedError)
on a dead socket and time out instead of hanging; a bad sync answer no
longer wipes accounts and positions.
TopstepX: hub start/stop/invoke and every REST call are bounded; a wedged
hub is discarded and rebuilt; a stuck sync is superseded after 3 min;
re-login no longer tears down the sync loop; a watchdog re-logs when syncs
go stale; a no-fill timeout cancels the order.
Scheduler: one unready client used to hold every firm forever. It now holds
the tick for a 10-minute grace, then trades the other firms without it.
Per-firm try/catch in batch collection, one batch at a time, accounts marked
in flight, legs un-counted only when the entry never reached the broker, and
the scheduler starts before the first batch fires.
Boot and supervision: instrumentation.ts boots the process at server start
(it used to wait for the first dashboard request); a supervisor rebuilds a
client that has been unhealthy for 20 min (not a TopstepX one holding a
position); broker HTTP calls default to a 60s timeout; GET /api/health shows
each client's liveness and the scheduler's last decision. Shared state the
eager boot would otherwise split across bundles lives on globalThis. Logs no
longer carry access tokens or whole AxiosErrors (which include the encoded
Tradovate password).

Bug fixes:
- Fix computeDailyTarget when consistency is 0% or 100%: treat as no constraint,
letting min-day reservation or full remaining profit drive the target
- Rename 'Random' to 'Auto' across entire codebase (types, API, UI, scheduler)
Features:
- Add "Stop after all eligible" checkbox: auto-stops scheduler when all
configured accounts are dead, inactive, already traded, or challenge complete
- Show position direction in status pill: "Long" (green) / "Short" (red)
instead of generic "In Trade" (blue)
- Add "Copy to Max" button: copies current trade direction to remaining
eligible accounts up to max_concurrent_accounts limit

Skip POINT_VALUES validation for 'Random' — the symbol is resolved
to a real instrument inside runTrade before any point value lookup.

All accounts in the same batch trade the same resolved direction.
Each new batch (after positions are flat) picks a fresh random direction.

- Auto-trade scheduler fires every 60s; uses Promise.allSettled batch so no new trades fire while any position from the current batch is open
- Commission gross-up: read entryCommission from cash.realizedPnL after fill (fallback 2.5×contracts), grossTarget = target + 2×entryCommission
- Sync gate: TradovateClient.syncComplete flag; scheduler skips tick until every client finishes initial position/balance sync
- Contracts formula changed to Math.ceil so $1500 target = 2 contracts
- Removed all fee caching (perContractFees, recentFills, fillFee handler) from tradovate-class.ts
- Removed firm_fees table, getFirmFees, upsertFirmFee from db.ts
- Deleted instrument-configs API routes; removed Fees UI from firm settings page
- /api/instruments returns full {symbol, enabled}[] objects; dashboard filters to enabled-only for trade selector
- Added auto-trade, debug, orders, settings, and trade API routes
- Instrument selector on dashboard now driven by enabled instruments from DB
