Fix stale copy, dedupe Exit columns, document local report review
Follow-ups from review of the Track Record slim: - BacktestPanel: drop the stale "tracking check" sentence from the "How this is measured" explainer — that check moved to the maintenance disclosure last commit, so it no longer describes anything in this block. - MyTradesPanel: rename the two identically-labelled "Exit" columns to "Exit Px" (exit price) and "Reason" (close_reason) so they're not confusable. - README: add "Reading a local backtest report" under Local Backtest Snapshots — a section->decision map for reports/backtest-*.json. The strategy-tuning tables removed from the deployed page (sweep, gate_ablation, time_exit_sweep, signal_eval, strategy_variants) now live only in the local report, so this keeps "research lives local" from meaning the decision knowledge evaporates. tsc -b && vite build pass.

### Reading a local backtest report
|
||||
|
||||
The deployed **Signals → Track Record** page is deliberately trimmed to validation
|
||||
(portfolio monitor vs SPY, realized paper trades) and how-to-trade. The
|
||||
strategy-tuning tables that used to live there now live **only** in the local
|
||||
report — inspect these `reports/backtest-<timestamp>.json` sections and produce the
|
||||
matching decision. Every change still goes through the factor harness first (see
|
||||
**The iron rule for strategy changes** above).
|
||||
|
||||
| Report section | What to read | Decision it drives |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `overall_qualified` vs `overall_all` | Is qualified net expectancy above the all-setups baseline? | Sanity — is the gate adding anything at all |
|
||||
| `sweep` | Net avg R and trade count at each residual-momentum cutoff | Where to set the momentum percentile (Admin → Settings → Activation) |
|
||||
| `gate_ablation` | Net expectancy with each floor removed | Drop a floor only if removing it doesn't hurt net expectancy |
|
||||
| `time_exit_sweep` | Net avg R / net R-per-day by hold length | Whether a fixed time exit beats the promoted ATR trail |
|
||||
| `portfolio_monitor`, `portfolio_sim`, `strategy_variants` | CAGR, Sharpe, max drawdown, per-year returns | Promote a strategy only if it beats the current baseline on CAGR/Sharpe/DD |
|
||||
| `signal_eval` | Mean IC, t-stat, IC>0 %, `reliable` | Iron rule: wire a new factor in only if \|IC\| ≳ 0.03 with a consistent sign and `reliable: true` |
|
||||
| `recommendation`, `research_recommendation` | The report's own headline read | A starting point, not a substitute for the sections above |
|
||||
|
||||
`recommendation` is the one section surfaced on the deployed page ("What this
|
||||
backtest recommends"); everything else in this table is intentionally local-only.
