A mapped reference for gator oscillator — how it runs, how to configure it, and where it runs aground under load.
Mechanics
gator oscillator works as a staged transformation — ingest, measure, decide, route. Each stage carries its own failure surface.
Waypoints (Configuration)
The gator oscillator setup exposes a few documented knobs. Begin at defaults, then adjust against measured behaviour, keeping a written record.
Wreck Record (Failure Modes)
Recorded failures for gator oscillator include regime changes, missed heartbeats, and positions that could not be exited cleanly.
Navigation Checks (Evaluation)
Evaluate gator oscillator on measured outcomes — return distribution, drawdown depth, operational burden — never on one lucky stretch.

Parameter Impact
| Parameter | Effect | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| timeframe | Signal frequency | Higher means fewer but more reliable signals |
| risk_limit | Maximum exposure | Lower means safer but slower returns |
| lookback | Indicator sensitivity | Longer means smoother but lagging |
