KEK Terminal
Strategy Operating Environment
The control layer of the KEK system. Design, validate, and monitor strategies through a structured pipeline — before any capital is deployed.
What the Terminal Does
The Terminal enforces a disciplined sequence: Context → Strategy → Validation → Monitoring → Deploy (optional). Each stage exists to eliminate guesswork, reduce emotional decision-making, and make outcomes measurable.
Market Context Engine
Structured analysis of market regime, narrative flow, and asset relevance — used to frame strategy design within real conditions.
Structured Strategy Generation
Convert trading hypotheses into parameterized, machine-readable specifications that can be tested, compared, and iterated.
Multi-Layer Validation
Monte Carlo stress testing, walk-forward out-of-sample validation, and risk-adjusted metric scoring — strategies must prove robustness, not just historical fit.
Paper Trading Environment
Live market validation with zero capital exposure. Strategies prove themselves under real conditions before execution.
Risk Enforcement Layer
System-level constraints — position limits, exposure caps, leverage defaults, and capital allocation controls — enforced structurally, not manually.
Performance Feedback Loop
All outcomes feed into ongoing refinement. The system improves using validated results, not assumptions.
Built-In Guardrails
The Terminal is architected around constraints. These are not optional “settings” — they are structural defaults.
- Multi-layer validation required before paper deployment
- Paper validation required before live execution
- Max 20% position size per trade
- 50% account exposure cap
- Conservative 2x default leverage
- Full audit logging
Guardrails are the mechanism that makes automation trustworthy.
KEK Mix Integration
The Terminal integrates directly with KEK Mix — the structured strategy engine.
Strategies generated and optimized in KEK Mix flow into the Terminal for validation and monitoring within the same operating environment.
No context switching. No fragmented workflow.
Who It's For
Active traders
Who want disciplined validation before risking capital.
Research-oriented traders
Who require structured iteration, multi-layer validation, and measurable results.
Funds & desks
Who require auditable workflows and enforced risk parameters.
Systematic learners
Who want to understand strategy design without capital exposure.
Default to Zero Risk
Paper trading is the default state. Live execution is optional — and gated behind validation. The Terminal is designed to make discipline the path of least resistance.
