## 🔧 Critical Fixes Applied
133+
134+
### PR #13: Timeout & Stability Improvements
135+
136+
#### 1. **API Timeout Protection**
137+
**Problem:** API calls could hang indefinitely, freezing entire agent system
138+
**Solution:** Added 10-second timeout to all API clients
139+
140+
**Applied to Binance:**
141+
```python
142+
client = Client(BINANCE_API_KEY, BINANCE_SECRET_KEY)
143+
client.REQUEST_TIMEOUT = 10 # Prevents API hangs
144+
```
145+
146+
**Recommendation for MT5:**
147+
```python
148+
# In MT5Connection.initialize()
149+
import signal
150+
151+
def timeout_handler(signum, frame):
152+
raise TimeoutError("MT5 connection timeout")
153+
154+
# Set 10-second timeout for MT5 operations
155+
signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, timeout_handler)
156+
signal.alarm(10)
157+
try:
158+
mt5.initialize(MT5_PATH)
159+
finally:
160+
signal.alarm(0) # Disable alarm
161+
```
162+
163+
---
164+
165+
#### 2. **Non-Fatal Agent Failures**
166+
**Problem:** `sys.exit(1)` in agents killed entire orchestrator
167+
**Solution:** Return `None` instead for graceful degradation
168+
169+
**Before:**
170+
```python
171+
if not os.path.exists("cookies.json"):
172+
cprint("❌ No cookies.json found!", "red")
173+
sys.exit(1) # KILLS ENTIRE ORCHESTRATOR
174+
```
175+
176+
**After:**
177+
```python
178+
if not os.path.exists("cookies.json"):
179+
cprint("❌ No cookies.json found!", "red")
180+
return None # Agent fails gracefully, others continue
181+
```
182+
183+
**Applied to:**
184+
-`sentiment_agent.py` - Twitter initialization
185+
-`whale_agent.py` - API failures
186+
-`funding_agent.py` - Connection errors
187+
188+
**Recommended for:**
189+
- `mt5_trading_agent.py` - MT5 connection failures
190+
- `rbi_agent_pp_multi.py` - Backtest errors
191+
- All agents in `main.py` orchestrator loop
192+
193+
---
194+
195+
#### 3. **Signal Quality Filtering**
196+
**Problem:** Low-quality AI signals executed anyway
197+
**Solution:** 62% minimum confidence threshold
198+
199+
**Implementation:**
200+
```python
201+
MT5_MIN_CONFIDENCE = 62 # Only execute trades with >62% AI confidence
202+
203+
if decision['confidence'] < MT5_MIN_CONFIDENCE:
204+
cprint(f"⚠️ Signal confidence {decision['confidence']}% below threshold {MT5_MIN_CONFIDENCE}%", "yellow")
205+
return None # Skip low-confidence trades
206+
```
207+
208+
**Benefits:**
209+
- ✅ Filters out weak signals
210+
- ✅ Reduces unprofitable trades
211+
- ✅ Improves overall win rate
212+
- ✅ Risk management at decision layer
213+
