# TRADING SESSIONS

### 🕒Trading Session Framework & Capital Flow Regulation

Smart Trader Bots operate in a continuous **22/7 trading mode**, executing two fully autonomous trading sessions per day. This schedule ensures high-frequency exposure to market volatility while maintaining operational efficiency and real-time adaptability.

#### 📅 Daily Trading Session Schedule (GMT)

* **Trading Session 1 (TS1):** 00:00 – 11:00 GMT
* **Trading Session 2 (TS2):** 12:00 – 23:00 GMT
* **Operational Windows:**
  * After TS1: 11:01 – 11:50 GMT
  * After TS2: 23:01 – 23:50 GMT

Each trading session lasts **11 hours**, followed by a **50-minute operational window** during which capital is assessed, rebalanced, and prepared for the next cycle.

### 🔄Post-Session Capital Management

At the conclusion of each trading session, the system executes the following steps to optimize fund allocation and meet user obligations:

1. **Trading Pool Assessment**\
   The system calculates the **current balance** of the Trading Pool after completing the session.
2. **Profit Calculation (NetPnL)**\
   NetPnL is calculated as:\
   `NetPnL = Trading Pool (end of session) – Trading Pool (start of session)`
3. **Daily Yield Forecasting**\
   The platform estimates the capital required to cover **daily user yield payouts** for the upcoming 12 hours:
   * After **TS1**: for deposits activated between **12:00 – 23:59 GMT**
   * After **TS2**: for deposits activated between **00:00 – 11:59 GMT**
4. **Maturity-Based Deposit Return Forecasting**\
   The system forecasts the amount needed to return **expired deposits** from the past 12 hours:
   * After **TS1**: deposits activated between **00:00 – 11:59 GMT**
   * After **TS2**: deposits activated between **12:00 – 23:59 GMT**
5. **Capital Reservation for Obligations**\
   Funds required for both **yield payouts** (step 3) and **deposit returns** (step 4) are reserved, regardless of profit or loss during the session.
6. **Platform Reserve Allocation (Only if Profitable)**\
   If NetPnL is **positive**, 58% of it is transferred to the **Platform Fund**, which covers operational costs, infrastructure, and development.\
   If NetPnL is **negative**, this step is skipped.
7. **Injection of New User Deposits**\
   Newly activated user deposits from the last 12 hours are added to the Trading Pool for use in the next session:
   * After **TS1**: deposits from **00:00 – 11:59 GMT**
   * After **TS2**: deposits from **12:00 – 23:59 GMT**

**🌟 Important Note for Investors:**

Investors should not focus on the exact start times of TS1 and TS2 for deposit activation. Our Business Model takes into account the interests of investors, and the first profit from a deposit will be credited **24 Business Hours** after activation, regardless of the time of activation.

#### 📉 Weekend Profit Allocation Policy

On **Saturdays and Sundays**, all net profits generated from **TS1 and TS2** are **fully allocated to the Platform Fund (100%)**. This allows the platform to sustain operational reliability while avoiding user yield accrual during periods of typically reduced market liquidity and volume.
