Dynamic Stop Loss (DSL) v5.3.1

Scope — DSL only. This skill handles only dynamic/trailing stop loss (DSL), not normal (static) stop loss. If the user says "stop loss" without clearly meaning DSL or static, ask (e.g. "Do you want a trailing stop that moves up with profit, or a fixed price stop loss?").

User-facing language. Use plain terms ("trailing stop", "profit protection"). Do not mention state paths, cron IDs, script names, or DSL_* env unless the user asks for technical details.

Default Mode: High Water

All new positions should use High Water Mode (lockMode: "pct_of_high_water"). This is the recommended default for every Senpi skill. The trailing floor is a percentage of the peak ROE, recalculated on every tick, with no ceiling. A trade at +50% ROE with 85% lock has its floor at +42.5%. A trade at +200% ROE has its floor at +170%. The geometry is constant — the trade always keeps 85% of its best moment.

See dsl-high-water-spec 1.0.md for the full spec and dsl-high-water-adoption-guide.md for per-skill tier configurations.

When creating DSL state files, ALWAYS include:

{
  "lockMode": "pct_of_high_water",
  "tiers": [
    {"triggerPct": 7,  "lockHwPct": 40, "consecutiveBreachesRequired": 3},
    {"triggerPct": 12, "lockHwPct": 55, "consecutiveBreachesRequired": 2},
    {"triggerPct": 15, "lockHwPct": 75, "consecutiveBreachesRequired": 2},
    {"triggerPct": 20, "lockHwPct": 85, "consecutiveBreachesRequired": 1}
  ]
}

Use the per-skill tiers from dsl-high-water-adoption-guide.md — different skills have different tier widths. The above is the standard momentum default (FOX, HAWK, DIRE WOLF).

Legacy mode (lockMode: "fixed_roe" or omitted) still works for existing positions. lockPct tiers lock a fixed fraction of the entry→HW price range. No per-tick recalculation — floor only updates on tier changes.

Trailing stop for Hyperliquid perps (main + xyz). Default: High Water Mode — floor trails the peak ROE as a percentage, recalculated every tick, no ceiling. Cron runs dsl-v5.py every 3–5 min; the script syncs the current floor to Hyperliquid via Senpi edit_position so HL can execute the SL even if the cron process goes down. Phase 1: wide retrace with absolute floor cap. Phase 2: tiered High Water locks that ratchet up with profit and never come back down. See references/tier-examples.md and references/state-schema.md.

Files: scripts/dsl-v5.py (monitor/close, ndjson output), scripts/dsl-cleanup.py (strategy dir cleanup), scripts/dsl-cli.py (lifecycle — use for all setup). Config: dsl-profile.json (this skill’s default). State: {DSL_STATE_DIR}/{strategyId}/{asset}.json; strategy config: references/strategy-schema.md. Cleanup: references/cleanup.md. Output schema: references/output-schema.md.

Architecture

• Scheduler: OpenClaw cron (one per strategy, every 3–5 min). No per-position cron — the script discovers positions from MCP clearinghouse and state files.

• Cron runner: dsl-v5.py — accepts --strategy-id<uuid> and --state-dir<path> (CLI args take precedence; env vars DSL_STRATEGY_ID, DSL_STATE_DIR are fallbacks). Prefer CLI args to avoid agent mistyping UUID in env. Checks strategy active (MCP strategy_get); reconciles state files with clearinghouse (archives orphans); for each active position: fetch price, update high water and tiers, sync SL to Hyperliquid via edit_position, detect breach, on breach call close_position and archive state. Prints one JSON line per position (ndjson).

CLI commands

All lifecycle operations use scripts/dsl-cli.py. Global option: --state-dir (default: $DSL_STATE_DIR or /data/workspace/dsl). Config must be a file path with @ prefix (e.g. @dsl-profile.json) or inline JSON.

Examples (this skill): --skill dsl-dynamic-stop-loss --configuration @<path-to-this-skill>/dsl-profile.json. Other skills: same CLI with --skill <their-skill> and --configuration @<their-dsl-profile.json>. Full details: references/cli-usage.md.

This skill (direct DSL setup)

When the user asks for trailing/dynamic stop loss, use scripts/dsl-cli.py for all lifecycle operations (do not edit state files by hand unless CLI is unavailable).

• Add DSL: python3 scripts/dsl-cli.py add-dsl <strategy-id> [asset dex] --skill dsl-dynamic-stop-loss --configuration @<path-to-this-skill>/dsl-profile.json
• If output has cron_needed: true, create the OpenClaw cron with the output cron_job_id, cron_env, and cron_schedule (schedule is derived from cronIntervalMinutes, default 3; one cron per strategy).
• Update / Pause / Resume / Delete / Status / Count: use the commands in the table above (same CLI, same --skill and --configuration as for add).

Agent: On closed=true → alert user. On strategy_inactive → remove cron, run dsl-cleanup.py. On pending_close=true → alert (script retries). On delete-dsl output cron_to_remove → remove that cron. On update-dsl output cron_schedule_changed: true → remove the existing cron (using cron_to_remove.cron_job_id) and create a new one with the same cron_job_id and the new cron_schedule (interval is configurable via ; default 3 min).

Other skills: setting up DSL

Full integration guide: references/integration-guide.md — step-by-step for any skill (paths, add/delete-dsl, cron, cleanup, checklist).

Any skill (e.g. wolf-strategy, dsl-tight) can add DSL for its strategies by calling the same CLI with its own profile and skill name.

1. Locate dsl-cli.py (e.g. dsl-dynamic-stop-loss/scripts/dsl-cli.py) and your skill’s dsl-profile.json (in your skill directory). Resolve paths at runtime.
2. Add DSL:
   python3 <path>/dsl-cli.py add-dsl <strategy-id> [asset dex] --skill <your-skill-name> --configuration @<path-to-your-dsl-profile.json>
   Use @ before the config path so the CLI reads the file (without @ it treats the value as inline JSON).
3. Cron: If the CLI output includes cron_needed: true, it also includes cron_job_id, cron_env, cron_schedule. Create the cron with that ID and env/schedule (one cron per strategy).

Example (other skill, single position):

python3 /path/to/dsl-dynamic-stop-loss/scripts/dsl-cli.py add-dsl <strategy-id> ETH main \
  --skill wolf-strategy \
  --configuration @/path/to/wolf-strategy/dsl-profile.json

Full command reference and configuration merge rules: references/cli-usage.md.

API: Strategy/positions/price/close and SL sync via Senpi (mcporter). Do not use strategy_close_strategy for a single position — use close_position.
