# Strategy Form Walkthrough

> Every field in the snipe strategy form, explained.

The form is the same shape for both Final and Reversal Snipe, with one difference: Reversal Snipe uses a ladder budget and price range instead of a single trade size.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Pick an asset">
    Row 1: BTC · ETH · SOL. Row 2: XRP · BNB · DOGE · HYPE.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a timeframe">
    5m, 15m, 1h, or 4h. (HYPE skips 1h — not supported.)
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a direction">
    🔀 Both · 📈 Up only · 📉 Down only.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set entry conditions (optional)">
    * **⏱ Timing** — only trigger inside a specific window of the candle (default 30s before resolution)
    * **🎯 Min price to buy** — only fire if shares cost at least this much (price floor, e.g. `≥80¢` skips long-shots)
    * **📊 Price movement (PD)** — minimum $ move from strike for Final Snipe (`≥$2.00`); for Reversal it's the **maximum** acceptable move (`≤\$X\`)
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set trade size (Final) or ladder budget + range (Reversal)">
    Final Snipe: fixed USD amount per trigger. Reversal Snipe: ladder price range (min/max), number of levels (1–50), and total USD budget.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open advanced settings (optional)">
    🛒 Max trades per market, ⚡ slippage tolerance.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create the strategy">
    Tap **✅ Create Strategy**. PolyWin watches 24/7 and fires when conditions hit. Backtest separately from the parent hub via **▶️ Manual Backtest** or **🤖 AI Backtest** before or after activation.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Strategy names auto-generate (e.g. "Final Snipe BTC 5m 30s \$10 · TOP"). The track suffix (`· TOP / · FAST / · SAFE`) tells PolyWin which preset bucket your strategy belongs to. Rename anytime from the strategy card.
</Note>

## 💡 Recommendation Nudge

When you open an existing strategy's edit form, you may see a yellow **💡 Recommendation** block at the top:

<Frame caption="Real nudge on a SAFE-track strategy — Apply link is in the bubble, not the keyboard">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/polywin/_sMY107hkYxZBIrd/images/snipe-recommendation-nudge.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=_sMY107hkYxZBIrd&q=85&s=755faa111c5dfbc09077215418f2c925" alt="Backtest recommendation nudge" width="1290" height="2796" data-path="images/snipe-recommendation-nudge.png" />
</Frame>

It appears when your current parameters don't match the latest canonical preset for your track (Most Profitable, Fast, or Safest). PolyWin shows:

* **PnL delta** — what the recommended preset would have earned vs your current setup, scaled to your trade amount
* **Win rate delta** — and how the win rate compares
* **✅ Apply preset** — a one-tap link that overwrites your params with the recommended ones

The nudge is informational. You can ignore it, run another backtest yourself, or apply it instantly.

<Note>
  The nudge only fires when the difference is meaningful. If your params already beat the canonical preset, you won't see one.
