This lecture formalizes the GATS axiom that drawdown should cost time, not capital. We map equity drawdown to a temporal budget via ATR-regime geometry and codify how DS (Death-Stop), DAATS (Dynamic Adaptive ATR Trailing Stop), and the 18.75% Law synchronize to convert equity risk into structured time expenditure. We then extend this to portfolio heat, shock handling, and “Exit Only on Death” discipline, with quantitative tables and MT5/GATS implementation blocks.
