# Drawdown Circuit Breaker

## Overview

Evaluate whether the trader should take new trade risk today based on account-level realized P&L and recent terminal trade outcomes. This skill reads trader-memory-core thesis YAML files only. It produces a `circuit_breaker_decision` artifact that complements the market-side `exposure_decision` from exposure-coach.

The circuit breaker is a recommendation and recordkeeping tool. It does not replace human judgment, and it does not enforce broker-side blocks or automated order rejection.

## When to Use

- Before screening or sizing any new swing trade candidate
- After a losing trade or partial trim to check whether a cooldown is active
- During daily planning when trader-memory-core contains recent closed or partially closed positions
- As a workflow gate before swing-opportunity-daily proceeds to candidate generation
