The pieces rules are made of

Each block answers one question about an order. Combine them into a strategy, or add one to a strategy you already follow.

Blocks are readable, and testable on their own

Every block states its thresholds in plain numbers you can change, and each one is checked separately when your assistant calls it, so you always know which one stopped an order.
