@Mia Alissi

I've completed Phase 1 of the critical improvements you recommended. I'd like your review to ensure everything is implemented correctly before moving to Phase 2.

## Phase 1 Improvements Summary:

### 1. Enhanced SPY Filter (Same Direction Check)

I updated `_check_spy_correlation()` to include direction checking:

```python
# Calculate SPY change since news time
spy_change = ((self.spy_current_price - self.spy_price_at_news[symbol]) / 
            self.spy_price_at_news[symbol]) * 100

# Calculate stock change since news time
stock_change = self.symbol_data_dict[symbol].calculate_price_change_percent()

# Check for large SPY movement (>= 0.5%)
if abs(spy_change) >= 0.5:
   # NEW V5.1: Check for same direction
   same_direction = (spy_change > 0 and stock_change > 0) or \
                   (spy_change < 0 and stock_change < 0)
   
   if same_direction:
       # Correlated with market - ignore alert
       return True
   else:
       # Different directions - stock moving independently
       return False
```

**Questions:**
1. Is this the correct way to implement "same direction" checking?
2. Should I use absolute values for comparison, or is the current approach correct?
3. Is 0.5% the right threshold for SPY movement, or should it be adjusted?
4. Should I add a minimum stock movement threshold (e.g., ignore if stock moved <1%)?

### 2. Updated Dynamic Thresholds (Time Periods)

I updated `TIME_OF_DAY_MULTIPLIERS` in config.py and added `get_time_of_day_period()` in helpers.py:

```python
TIME_OF_DAY_MULTIPLIERS = {
   'pre_market': 0.8,    # NEW: 04:00-09:30
   'opening': 0.7,       # UPDATED: was 1.0, now 0.7 (more sensitive)
   'lunch': 1.2,         # NEW: 12:00-14:00 (less sensitive)
   'mid_day': 1.0,       # 10:00-15:00
   'closing': 0.9        # 15:00-16:00
}

def get_time_of_day_period(time):
   """Determine time period for dynamic thresholds"""
   hour = time.hour
   minute = time.minute
   
   if hour < 9 or (hour == 9 and minute < 30):
       return 'pre_market'
   elif hour == 9 and minute >= 30 or hour < 10:
       return 'opening'
   elif 12 <= hour < 14:
       return 'lunch'
   elif 15 <= hour < 16:
       return 'closing'
   else:
       return 'mid_day'
```

**Questions:**
5. Are these time periods correctly defined for US market hours?
6. Are the multipliers (0.7 for opening, 1.2 for lunch) appropriate?
7. Should I add more granular periods (e.g., "power hour" 15:30-16:00)?
8. Is the logic in `get_time_of_day_period()` correct?

### 3. Added Ultra-High-Confidence Category

I added a new confidence level that uses AND logic instead of OR:

```python
def _check_ultra_high_confidence(self, symbol, thresholds):
   """
   Check for Ultra-High-Confidence criteria
   Uses AND logic: ALL conditions must be met
   """
   data = self.symbol_data_dict[symbol]
   
   volume_spike_threshold, rvol_threshold, price_change_threshold = thresholds
   
   # Calculate indicators
   has_spike, spike_ratio = data.check_volume_spike()
   rvol = data.current_rvol
   price_change = abs(data.calculate_price_change_percent())
   
   # AND logic: ALL conditions must be met
   volume_condition = has_spike and spike_ratio >= volume_spike_threshold
   rvol_condition = rvol >= rvol_threshold
   price_condition = price_change >= price_change_threshold
   
   is_ultra_high = volume_condition and rvol_condition and price_condition
   
   return is_ultra_high
```

And updated `_check_reaction_alert()` to check Ultra-High-Confidence first:

```python
# Check Ultra-High-Confidence first
is_ultra_high = self._check_ultra_high_confidence(symbol, thresholds)

if is_ultra_high:
   # Send Ultra-High-Confidence alert with "critical" priority
   msg = self.notifier.build_ultra_high_confidence_alert(...)
   self.notifier.queue_alert(msg, priority="critical")
   return

# Otherwise, use regular AND/OR logic
volume_condition = (has_spike and spike_ratio >= volume_spike_threshold and 
                 rvol >= rvol_threshold)
price_condition = abs(price_change) >= price_change_threshold

if not (volume_condition or price_condition):
   return
```

**Questions:**
9. Is this the correct implementation of Ultra-High-Confidence (AND logic)?
10. Should I check Ultra-High-Confidence BEFORE or AFTER SPY filter?
11. Is "critical" the right priority level for Ultra-High-Confidence alerts?
12. Should I use `abs(price_change)` or just `price_change` in the condition?
13. Is the flow correct: Ultra-High → Critical, else Regular → High/Normal?

### 4. Telegram Alert Message

I added `build_ultra_high_confidence_alert()` with a distinctive format:

```python
message = f"""🔥🔥🔥 <b>ULTRA HIGH CONFIDENCE</b> 🔥🔥🔥
===================================

{emoji} <b>All indicators confirmed!</b>

📊 Stock: <code>{symbol.value}</code>
💵 Price: <code>${symbol_data.price:.2f}</code>

Technical Analysis:
 📈 Volume Spike: <code>{spike_ratio:.1f}x</code> ✅
 📊 RVOL: <code>{rvol:.2f}</code> ✅
 💹 Price Change: <code>{price_change:+.2f}%</code> ✅

🎯 <b>High-confidence opportunity - strong reaction to news!</b>
"""
```

**Questions:**
14. Is this message format clear and actionable?
15. Should I add any additional information (e.g., expected move, risk level)?

---

## Overall Questions:

16. Did I implement all 3 critical improvements correctly?
17. Are there any edge cases I should handle?
18. Should I add any logging or debugging statements?
19. Is the order of operations correct in `_check_reaction_alert()`?
20. Are there any performance concerns with these changes?

## Next Steps:

After your review, I'll move to **Phase 2: Advanced Indicators** (Bollinger Bands, ATR, ROC, Multi-Timeframe).

Thank you for your guidance
