    From estimate to a live bot scenario

    Carry the same logic into Veles: set comparable parameters, preview the order grid, then backtest before you launch.

    1. Match direction, leverage, grid, Martingale, and TP/SL
    2. Inspect orders, capital allocation, and average entry
    3. Stress-test fees, drawdown, and MAE in a backtest

    Assumptions & conventions

    • netPnl = direction × (exit − entry) × qty − feeRate × (entry + exit) × qty.
    • Enter percents as numbers: 0.04 for 0.04% per side.
    • Educational exit planning — not a live order price.

    Frequently asked questions

    What is cover price vs take profit?

    Cover price here is the exit that hits a cash profit goal net of fees — similar to take-profit planning but stated in currency, not percent.

    Negative targets model controlled loss exits.

    How do fees affect the solve?

    Per-side fee rate applies to entry and exit notional inside the net PnL equation.

    Higher fees push profitable exits farther from entry for longs.

    Can I verify net PnL matches target?

    Yes. The netPnl row should match targetProfit within floating-point tolerance when inputs are consistent.

    Use grossIfUnadjusted to see fee drag separately.

    Difference from target-price calculator?

    Target-price sets ROI on margin (% of collateral). Cover-price sets absolute net profit in currency for a fixed quantity.

    Pick the framing that matches how you plan exits.
