All engine settings are managed from the Controls page. Changes take effect immediately. Every change is logged in the audit trail.
How to Change a Setting
- Go to the Controls page.
- Find the section and parameter you want to change.
- Edit the value.
- Click SAVE for that section.
- The change is live within seconds.
You can verify the change was recorded by checking the Audit Log page.
General Settings

| Setting | Default | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Engine Status | Inactive | Master switch. Only your developer can change this. |
| Engine Version | 1.0 | Display only. |
| Target Go-Live | 2026-03-20 | Reference date for launch. |
| First-Timer Guarantee | On | Gives first-time bidders and sellers a guaranteed win on their first trade. |
Engine Status cannot be changed from the dashboard. This is a safety measure. Contact your developer to activate or deactivate the engine.
Session Schedule

| Setting | Default | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Session 1 Start | 01:00 UTC | When the Dawn Session opens |
| Session 2 Start | 09:00 UTC | When the Midday Session opens |
| Session 3 Start | 17:00 UTC | When the Dusk Session opens |
| Session Duration | 60 minutes | How long each session lasts |
| Criteria Rotation | On | Whether evaluation criteria change each session |
Win Rates

| Setting | Default | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Win Rate Session 1 | 80% | Target win rate for the Dawn Session |
| Win Rate Session 2 | 50% | Target win rate for the Midday Session |
| Win Rate Session 3 | 30% | Target win rate for the Dusk Session |
These are targets. The actual win rate depends on market conditions and adjusts automatically. Higher values mean more sellers win per session.
Loss Requirements

| Setting | Default | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Loss Requirement Min | 5 | Minimum number of losses before a user qualifies for a win |
| Loss Requirement Max | 20 | Maximum the engine might require |
The engine picks a value within this range each session. A wider range makes the system less predictable for users.
Economy Settings

| Setting | Default | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Recess Threshold | 10% | Maximum recess percentage users can set on sells |
| Excess Threshold | 30% | Maximum excess percentage users can set on sells |
| Buyback Zone | 0.2% | The guaranteed sell zone. Sells within this margin of the product price always succeed. |
The buyback zone should be kept very small (0.2% or lower). A larger value makes it too easy for users to get guaranteed sells.
Bot Governance

| Setting | Default | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Session Alignment | On | AI bots only bid during session windows |
| Fund Range Enforcement | On | Bot profits are steered to stay within plan ranges |
AI Plan Ranges
Below the main settings, you will see the AI Plan NEXUS Ranges table showing all 4 plans. Each plan has:

| Column | What It Controls |
|---|---|
| Daily Min / Max % | Range of daily profit the bot can earn |
| Monthly Min / Max % | Target monthly return range |
| Success Min / Max % | Range of trade success rates |
Changes to plan ranges take effect within 5 minutes (the next governance cycle). All active bots on the affected plan are adjusted automatically.
Important Notes
- Change one thing at a time. Adjust one parameter, observe the effect over a session or two, then change another. This way you know what caused any shift.
- Check the Audit Log. After making changes, verify they were recorded.
- When in doubt, use Emergency Pause. It stops all trading instantly while you think.
