Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00093 | $0.04566 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00046 | $0.02283 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00913 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00457 |
Grade A, and why
volume-trading-strategies scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Volume Trading Strategies — From First Principles
This skill teaches you to understand, analyze, and execute volume-based trading strategies. You'll learn why volume is the most important signal in any market, how to read it, and how to use it — both for legitimate market making and for detecting manipulation.
Why Volume Matters
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ THE VOLUME TRUTH │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ │
│ Price tells you WHERE the market is. │
│ Volume tells you WHETHER the market MEANS IT. │
│ │
│ Price up + Volume up = Strong trend (real buyers) │
│ Price up + Volume down = Weak trend (fading momentum) │
│ Price down + Volume up = Capitulation (watch reversal) │
│ Price down + Volume dn = Drift (no conviction either) │
│ │
│ Volume PRECEDES price. Always. │

Key Metrics
| Metric | Formula | What It Tells You |
|---|---|---|
| Spread | Best Ask - Best Bid | Liquidity cost; tight = liquid |
| Depth | Sum of orders within X% of mid | How much size the book can absorb |
| Imbalance | Bid size / (Bid size + Ask size) | Directional pressure |
| VWAP | Σ(Price × Volume) / Σ(Volume) | Fair price weighted by activity |
| Slippage | Execution price vs mid price | Cost of large orders |
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
