# Alpaca Trading
## Intent
Support safe paper trading, Alpaca automation, broker workflow analysis, and Trading repo changes without increasing live trading risk.
## Do Not Use When
- Do not use for financial advice, guaranteed performance claims, live order execution without explicit user instruction, or unrelated trading platforms.
- Required context is missing and cannot be reasonably inferred.
- A more specific skill in this repo is a better match.
Use this skill when the user is working in the `Trading` repository on Alpaca-connected scripts, backtesting workflows, journaling, scheduling, or reusable PowerShell Alpaca modules.
## Trigger When
- The user mentions the `Trading` repo, Alpaca scripts, paper trading, backtesting, journaling, scheduler jobs, or Alpaca PowerShell modules.
- The task touches `Alpaca/`, `Backtesting/`, `Journal/`, `Scheduler/`, `src/`, `Tests/`, `rsi_macd_bot/`, or `btc-signal-executor/`.
- The user wants to build, extend, debug, document, test, or review repo workflows around Alpaca trading.
## Repo Shape
The current repository is a mixed Python and PowerShell project with these main areas:
```text
Trading/
|-- Alpaca/
|-- Backtesting/
|-- Journal/
|-- Scheduler/
|-- src/
|-- Tests/
|-- rsi_macd_bot/
`-- btc-signal-executor/
```
Use the existing structure instead of inventing a new module layout.
## Default Behavior
- Preserve what already exists unless the user asks for a larger redesign.
-
