DOCUMENTATION CLEANUP - January 21, 2026

navigation and onboarding.

   - **MAIN REFERENCE DOCUMENT**
   - Complete requirements and implementation status
   - System architecture, database schema, configuration
   - Operational guide, testing, troubleshooting
   - **START HERE** for understanding the system

3. STRATEGY_LOGGING_GUIDE.md
   - Sequential log messages for all strategy flows
   - Entry, exit, indicator, order execution logs

These documents can be safely deleted as all critical information has been 
moved to Crypto_Algo_Trading_Master_Requirement_v2.0_CURRENT.md.

WHY THIS CLEANUP?
================

- Redundant content across multiple files
- No clear entry point

Solution:
- One comprehensive master document (v2.0)
- Clear documentation index (README.md)
- Focused guides for specific tasks (Telegram, Logging, Config)
- Easy navigation and onboarding

WHAT TO DELETE:
==============

Safe to delete all .md files EXCEPT:
- README.md

- STRATEGY_LOGGING_GUIDE.md
- ENV_CONFIGURATION_GUIDE.md
- TELEGRAM_BOT_SETUP_GUIDE.md
