ramseshk bbe765c865 HFT mode: IOC orders at market every 3-5s, real fills on Hyperliquid
Switched from 60s limit orders to immediate-or-cancel (IOC) orders
at market price, placed every 3-5 seconds, rotating through all
5 strategies. Orders fill instantly at market, creating active
trade flow visible on Hyperliquid testnet.

Size fix: 0.0002 BTC (~$12.80) and 0.006 ETH (~$11.20) to meet
Hyperliquid's $10 minimum order value.

Results after 30s: 11 fills, 7 trades tracked, PnL -$0.04
(fee bleed, expected for HFT pattern on testnet).

The node:
- Places IOC buy/sell alternating per strategy
- Reads real fills from userFills API (deduplicated by tid)
- Computes actual PnL from closedPnl minus fees
- Clears stale orders on startup/shutdown
- Writes real metrics to dashboard every tick

Risk warning

This is testnet only. These strategies are educational — they are not financial advice and have no alpha guarantee. Never run them on mainnet without thorough backtesting and your own due diligence.
