Require a costed value margin and realistic full-premium reward/risk before simulating option exits: 187 affordable legs had zero baseline passes, and the nearest TLT put offered only 1.12 reward/risk under an immediate favorable move. Indicative quotes and assumed fees cannot support execution.

Correct for shared dates and multiple markets before adopting a volatility model: only TLT survived the seven-market interval, while GLD realized variance was 2.05 times forecast. Keep favorable post-holdout recalibration separate from validation.

A positive arithmetic mean is insufficient when the fixed UAMY holdout loses 7.12%, draws down 58.25% and its block mean interval spans −3.99% to +4.79%. Keep approved size zero rather than switch to the best neighboring parameter or use the $349.01 funding gap to justify risk.

Assert long-only trades, exit counts and compounded fee-inclusive returns before publishing vectorbt results; defaults can reverse a closing order, and raw trade-return denominators can exclude entry fees. When five collector slots are full, test a compact replacement that preserves existing coverage before cancelling the predecessor.

For antimony, value accepted order cohorts rather than a contract ceiling: UAMY's commercial GP fell from $8.47 to $0.36/lb while accepted DLA invoices imply $31.71/lb. Require the specific ingot costs and cash receipts before treating that temporary spread as repeatable pricing power.

Keep allocation zero when the actual exit rule's empirical quarter-Kelly is zero, even when its parent monthly rule looks profitable and the account needs349.01.

Explicitly set vectorbt direction='longonly' and reconcile its final wealth with independent cash arithmetic before accepting a cash-only backtest; the default produced an invalid short-capable replay here.

Keep size zero when actual option win probability and average win/loss are unknown; neither the $349.01 shortfall nor a threatened cap reduction changes FRO’s failed cost and risk gates. Preserve cash rather than choose the pricing model that makes a trade look attractive.

Require modeled fair value to cover the entry ask, a defensible exit spread, and fees before calling a contract cheap: FRO’s $42 put changed from +$4.91 before exit spread to -$2.59 using half the displayed spread, and its $73 premium exceeded the $8.51 full-risk ceiling. A zero-bid affordable tail is not a base-hit trade.

Before treating dividend-stock IV or parity gaps as cheap options, compare an American discrete-dividend model with an independent stock-price solver: FRO had 17 naive flags but zero broad-bound failures, and the $42 put changed sign between models. Numerical mesh convergence alone does not establish model accuracy.

Do not use an alarming headline or a recovery promise to rescue a failed bounce rule: BTC/ETH/SOL daily holdouts lost 15.40%/7.60%/12.35% after costs. The $349.01 shortfall leaves allocation at zero when the measured edge is negative.

Treat funding/quote collectors with zero remaining runs as exhausted even when nextRunAt is populated, and renew only needed coverage. A retained 3,998.5 BTC balance or continued Liquid blocks does not prove returned reserves or working peg-outs; verify both before changing the thesis.

For bridge incidents, anchor the event to the transaction and first operator statement, then verify controller inputs before trusting on-chain messages. Liquid’s BTC residual changed from +0.275% to −0.274% with the window; one incident cannot calibrate a rebound edge.

Do not promote a lone +10.80% event holdout or a +11.75% generic momentum holdout into an event edge when usable event training is zero and generic training loses 32.62%. The $349.01 shortfall does not justify changing the entry window or accepting 0.67 reward/risk.

Reject zero-volume event entry or exit bars before calculating a usable training record: TLX's two training events failed that check despite positive paper returns.

If a trading refresh leaves the validation gates unchanged, retain zero allocation and finish; do not reoptimize already-inspected holdouts to meet the $349.01 monthly shortfall. Reserve new strategy discovery for the research run.

Recheck both displayed sides at each review rather than carrying forward a liquidity verdict: LTC bid depth changed from about $1.05 to $3656.89 between snapshots. Neither snapshot alone calibrates executable size or 15-minute stop fills.

Keep the rejected daily/hourly rules disabled when funding forecasts change: SOL's -0.334966bp forecast does not repair its -14.379% costed holdout. A completed funding event still needs independent conditional price-payoff validation.
