Premises:1 Backtest implementation determines meaning of performance.2 Unadjusted corporate-action moves and zero costs can distort a result.3 CLI baseline is required but insufficient.

SPY grossreturn26.9878%,drawdown5.0770%,closedN1,win100%; sample too small andmethod insufficient. XLE trade includes92.01->45.43 unnormalized rawprice interval; no inference of actualcorporateaction without source, but adjustedseries customtest avoids raw discontinuity.
