Wikipedia no longer uses plain symbol table cells; parse exchange links and NyseSymbol templates, surface the list source in bootstrap results, and keep legacy cell parsing as a fallback.
Persist job and ingestion warnings/errors for 7 days, surface a dismissible top-nav badge, treat stale OHLCV as a warning (e.g. ticker renames), and show market bar age on the ticker freshness chip.
Single-ticker fetch now attaches residual-momentum ranks so setups do not silently fail the activation gate. Exit plan is a timeline, chart labels move left of the price scale, and missing ranks surface explicitly.
- Remove unused _gate_eligible_levels filtering logic and its tests (research-only)
- Add prominent RESEARCH/DIAGNOSTIC markers and docs to clear-air/ATR fallback helpers
- Document production vs research BACKTEST_* environment variables in backtest_service
- Minor cleanups: update legacy report text, improve outdated function docstring
The UI told a swing-trade story (entry -> target -> stop) while the engine runs
a momentum portfolio (buy strength, trail out, re-rank). The selection was
honest; everything around it was borrowed from a strategy we don't run.
The target is never an exit under `atr_trailing`: `_atr_trailing_close()` does
not even take it as a parameter. It exists only to compute the R:R and touch
odds that admit a setup through the activation gate. Backtested exit reasons for
the production strategy: 144 initial stop, 98 trailing stop, 78 max hold —
target 0. See docs/research/sr-levels-and-exits.md.
What changed:
- New ExitPlanPanel on every setup card states the rules that actually close the
trade: initial stop (1R), the price at which the 3x ATR trail takes over from
it, the trail width in R, and the max hold. Derived in lib/exitPlan.ts from the
live exit policy, so it follows Admin rather than hardcoding the default.
- New BaseRatesPanel replaces per-target "probability" as the answer to "what
usually happens": win rate, average hold, best/worst R, and how trades actually
ended — measured under the real exit, from the backtest report.
- "Target"/"target probability" relabelled to "level"/"touch odds" and grouped as
gate metrics, with the R:R. On the dashboard focus card, residual momentum
(the actual signal) takes the headline stat those two used to occupy.
- The take-trade dialog no longer offers a target dropdown whose value the exit
ignores; it states the trailing plan instead. The picker returns only when the
live policy is mode='target', where the choice is real. The stored target is
now the setup's own, not whichever row was last clicked while exploring.
- "Played out" is gone. A setup was declared dead once price reached the target —
backwards under a trailing exit, where reaching a level is the good case and
the trade keeps running. Only the stop invalidates a setup now; running past
the entry is an "extended" warning, measured in R (you'd be chasing).
The levels ladder, the price rail and the chart overlay all stay fully
explorable — clicking a level still drives them. It is framed as overhead
structure, which is what it is, rather than a menu of exits.
Adds a parity guard: the UI recovers ATR as |entry - stop| / 1.5, so the test
fails if the scanner's stop width ever moves.

A scoring error no longer skips setup detection for the ticker: the
rollback already restores a clean transaction, and qualification
re-gates on live scores at alert time, so a stale score is recoverable
but a skipped scan is not.
Iterating symbol strings instead of Ticker instances fixes a latent
crash the new regression test caught: rollback() expires ORM objects
regardless of expire_on_commit, so touching ticker.symbol in the except
handler triggered sync lazy-loading, which raises on an AsyncSession
and killed the whole scan on the first per-ticker error.

Three follow-ups to the gate probability floor (8f41143):
- Signals table shows the starred primary target (shared primaryTarget
helper) instead of an independently computed max-probability best,
so Overview, Signals and ticker details agree by construction.
- Targets pinned at the 3% probability clamp floor collapse to the
nearest one (enhance_trade_setup + backtest candidates in parity):
floor-pinned levels are indistinguishable to the model, so farther
ones were duplicate 3% rows inviting lottery headlines.
- get_trade_setups only returns setups re-emitted within
LIVE_SETUP_MAX_AGE_DAYS (3): an older latest row means the daily
scan no longer confirms the setup, and such rows otherwise surface
forever on Overview/Signals/ticker/alerts. History endpoints keep
full history.
Backtest on the Jul-3 snapshot is metric-identical to the gate-floor
run on all qualified stats (1089 qualified, Sharpe 2.02, CAGR +49.6%,
DD -15.8%): the prune only removes noise the gate already rejected.

A qualified setup's primary target must now clear MIN_TARGET_PROBABILITY
(20%), shared with the primary-selection floor in recommendation_service
and mirrored in the frontend gate. Closes the read-time hole where a
stale pre-c7a198b row starring a far lottery target (probability pinned
at the 3% clamp floor, R:R inflated by the same distance) qualified
forever: the scanner emits no replacement row and live R:R never decays.
A/B backtest vs c7a198b baseline (same July-3 snapshot): 7 of 1096
qualified setups removed; qualified net avg R 0.202 -> 0.207, hold
Sharpe 2.00 -> 2.02, CAGR +48.8% -> +49.6%, max DD unchanged at -15.8%.

Layout regrouped by relationship, not size: the setup-in-focus card
and the radar sit side by side (they are one decision surface), the
four account ribbons move directly above the open positions they
describe, and a new performance chart closes the page.
- Radar rows are selectable: clicking one swaps the focus card to that
setup - including below-gate rows, whose card shows a muted
"rank N / below gate" badge and the disqualify reason in the footer,
with a "back to top pick" reset. The row currently in focus is
highlighted; ticker links still deep-link without selecting.
- Performance chart (the mockup's missing piece): new
GET /paper-trades/equity-curve computes, per benchmark trading day
since the first paper trade, the book's cumulative P&L (realized +
mark-to-market from stored OHLCV) vs the same cost basis riding SPY
over each trade's window (benchmark_prices). Pure curve math in
paper_trade_service with unit tests; hidden until there are 2+
points of data. Frontend renders both lines with crosshair readout,
zero baseline, and direct end labels.
Backend unit suite: 501 passed.

A setup's primary target could carry a ~3% probability: the picker
chose the most likely target among those with R:R >= 1.5, and after a
run-up that pool can contain only far "lottery" levels (the near,
likely levels fail the R:R floor). The lottery target's inflated R:R
then became the setup's headline and passed the activation gate's
min_rr floor - the gate's probability check only requires a value to
exist.
Fix, no new tuning knobs: the primary must clear BOTH floors
(R:R >= 1.5 AND probability >= 20%). When nothing does, fall back to
the most likely target overall, so the headline carries an honest low
R:R and the gate rejects the setup on real numbers instead of being
gamed by an unreachable target.
Deliberately NOT pure EV-maximization (p*RR): the probability model
adds strength/alignment bonuses as flat percentage points, so EV
arithmetic would scale those bonuses by (RR+1) and systematically
favor far targets on aligned setups - the same lottery bias through
the back door.
Shared by production (enhance_trade_setup) and the backtest simulator,
so backtest comparisons stay apples-to-apples. Unit tests pin the
degenerate case; full unit suite green (497 passed).

The portfolio monitor's Production row now replays the live qualification
flag and the Admin exit policy (mode/ATR multiplier/hold days) instead of a
frozen research-variant gate, so Admin tuning is reflected in the next run.
Single-source the 80/20 strategy_rank weights in momentum_service and pin
every dual-defined constant with a parity test. Behavior-preserving today:
the production sim reproduces the README baseline exactly.

A local backtest (offline prod snapshot, 506 tickers) evaluated blue-sky
projected targets under the PRODUCTION exit (3x ATR trailing + 30d max hold,
paper_trade_service DEFAULT_EXIT_MODE="atr_trailing"). Blue-sky setups are
dilutive: the qualified book scored 328% return / Sharpe 1.84 / DD -21.0%
WITHOUT them vs 300% / 1.58 / -18.7% WITH them. They rank high on momentum by
construction, so they grab slots from S/R setups that catch bigger runs under
a trailing-stop exit (only ~2pp worse drawdown doesn't justify the lost return
and Sharpe).
Reverts the scanner/TargetGenerator measured-move projection, the stricter
projected activation gate, the frontend qualification mirror, the `projected`
type field, and the projected tests -- all backend files are now byte-identical
to the pre-blue-sky commit.
Keeps the played-out "No current setup" UX (RecommendationPanel): when price
has run past the target (played out) or through the stop (invalidated), the
panel shows a plain no-setup state instead of a stale actionable card. This is
frontend-only (reads last close + existing setup fields) and is what actually
fixes the reported stale-below-price bug -- no backend change or rescan needed.

Fixes stale below-price setups showing as current recommendations. Three
distinct causes share the symptom (get_trade_setups returns the latest stored
setup per direction and never expires it):
- Genuine blue-sky (no overhead S/R): scanner + TargetGenerator now project a
measured-move target (entry +/- 3*ATR, ~2:1 R:R), flagged projected with a
low sr_strength probability haircut. Overhead check keys on level tag OR price
so it never projects through a straddling resistance cluster.
- Projected targets clear a stricter activation bar (long-only, momentum >= 90,
confidence >= min+10), independent of the general momentum gate. Mirrored in
frontend qualification.ts.
- Played-out UX (fixes the reported TTWO case, which is R:R-starved under a
resistance cluster, not blue-sky): when price is at/past target or through the
stop, RecommendationPanel shows a "No current setup" state and softens the
stale ticker-level header/reasoning, instead of a stale actionable card.
No migration: the projected flag rides in existing targets_json. 504 backend
unit tests pass; frontend typechecks.

Both _atr_trailing_close (scheduled) and _atr_trailing_level (dashboard
read path) recomputed ATR from scratch on every post-entry bar via
compute_atr(rows[:idx+1]) — O(n*k) per trade. Replace with a single O(n)
Wilder pass, _atr_series_from_rows, that stores round(running, 4) at each
index. compute_atr keeps its running ATR unrounded through the recurrence
and rounds only at return, so this reproduces its per-prefix value exactly
(no behavior change; live-vs-backtest atr_trail3 parity still byte-identical).
Remove the now-unused _atr_from_rows and its compute_atr import. Add a
per-index parity test against compute_atr; existing ATR tests now mock
_atr_series_from_rows (same effect as the old fixed-ATR mock).
