PRIMARY_TARGET_MIN_RR, expand prod parity tests, and drop dead FE clients.
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%.

Replaces the citron/green glass theme with the Horizon direction
(mockup at /design-horizon): space-void background, starfield, dim
Mars horizon, rim-cyan accent, rose for negative. Palette validated
for CVD separation and contrast on the dark surface.
- tailwind.config: gray -> cool space neutrals, blue/emerald -> cyan
scale, red -> rose; display font Space Grotesk
- globals.css: Horizon tokens, atmosphere, denser glass, cyan
buttons/inputs, price-rail / R-bar / radar chart CSS
- Dashboard rebuilt: verdict hero, top-pick card with spatial price
rail, KPI tiles, open positions as diverging R-bars with expandable
detail + trade chart (OHLCV since entry, entry/stop/target levels),
radar list with per-setup disqualify reason, watchlist chips
- OpenTradesPanel: table replaced by R-bar rows; all fields kept in
the drill-down (shares, P&L, alpha, trailing stop, sell)
- qualification: disqualifyReason() mirrors qualifiesSetup rule order
- CandlestickChart: canvas colors moved to Horizon palette; S/R now
cyan/neutral so rose stays reserved for the stop level
- ScoreCard: radar score fingerprint with hover values
- Design mockup pages included (routed in App.tsx)

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.

A NEUTRAL ("No Clear Setup") recommendation means the engine found no clear
directional trade, yet such setups could still qualify and even be crowned the
top pick purely on momentum rank (e.g. an extended momentum leader with a far,
5%-probability target). A NEUTRAL signal isn't actionable, so it shouldn't
qualify.
New `exclude_neutral` activation flag (default on): setup_qualifies drops setups
whose recommended_action is NEUTRAL. It lives in the shared gate, so it flows
through the dashboard's qualified/top-pick selection, the track record's
qualified stats, and the backtest (which computes recommended_action and gates on
meets_core). Toggleable in Admin → Settings → Activation; the frontend mirror and
activationSummary ("directional") match.
Re-run the backtest after enabling to confirm it holds/improves expectancy.

Two read-only pills in the ticker header, beside the watchlist toggle:
- "Top Pick" when the ticker is the current #1 — the same ranking the dashboard
highlights, via a shared topPickSymbol() helper so the two stay in sync.
- "Open Trade" when an open paper trade exists on the ticker.

min_target_probability is gone: it filtered on the probability model the
calibration has repeatedly shown to be weak and overconfident, it was redundant
with the momentum gate, and as an off-by-default knob it just invited bad tuning.
Removed from the backend gate, activation config/schema, the frontend mirror
(qualifiesSetup / activationSummary), and ActivationSettings. The probability
model stays where it does real work (primary-target selection + display).
Charts: with multi-year history the all-bars default was unreadable. Added
time-range presets (1M / 3M / 6M / YTD / 1Y / 3Y / 5Y / All), defaulting to 1Y;
clicking a preset always re-applies (snaps back after a manual zoom). Y-axis
autoscale and wheel-zoom / drag-pan were already there.
339 backend tests pass; frontend build clean.

Part 1 — long-only. The momentum edge is long top-momentum; the gate was
qualifying shorts on high-momentum names (fighting the trend), which showed as
the -0.13R Short(qual.) drag. While the gate is active, shorts no longer qualify
(backend qualification, backtest _momentum_qualifies, and the frontend mirror).
Part 2 — production wiring. Live setups now carry a real momentum rank, so the
dashboard, the Track Record's qualified stats, and outcome evaluation all gate on
the same value instead of deferring to floors:
- new momentum_service.compute_momentum_percentiles: 12-1 momentum per ticker,
ranked across the universe into a {symbol: percentile} map.
- the daily R:R scan ranks the universe up front and stores each setup's
percentile (new trade_setups.momentum_percentile column, migration 010).
- enhance_trade_setup mutates the same row, so the percentile is preserved;
_trade_setup_to_dict + TradeSetupResponse expose it to the API.
Until a fresh scan runs, pre-existing setups have a null percentile and the gate
falls back to floors for them (longs) / excludes them (shorts) — they fill in on
the next scan. 341 backend tests pass; frontend build clean.
Needs the alembic upgrade (migration 010) on deploy.

The 5-year backtest confirmed the EV gate adds negative value (high threshold =
worst expectancy) and that 12-1 month momentum is the one price signal with a
plausible, right-signed cross-sectional IC (~0.05). So "qualified" now means:
clears the R:R + confidence floors AND the ticker ranks in the top
`min_momentum_percentile` of the universe by 12-1 momentum that week.
- qualification.py: drop expected_value_r / the EV gate; add a momentum-percentile
gate (duck-typed `momentum_percentile`, only enforced when attached + threshold
set, else defers to floors). Mirrored in frontend qualification.ts.
- activation config/schema: min_expected_value -> min_momentum_percentile
(default 80 = top quintile). ActivationSettings, DashboardPage (ranks/【shows】
momentum instead of EV), and the BacktestPanel sweep follow.
- backtest: rank each ISO week's universe by 12-1 momentum, assign a percentile,
and qualify the top slice; the sweep now sweeps the percentile cutoff.
Also offload the backtest's per-ticker compute to a worker thread so the heavy
~5y run no longer blocks the API event loop (the "backend offline" flicker).
Production setups don't carry momentum_percentile yet — wiring the scanner to
attach it (a universe momentum-rank step) is the next step; until then the live
gate defers to floors while the backtest measures the momentum selection. 330
backend tests pass; frontend build clean.

Diagnosing "no qualified signals for 5 days": setups were generated but none
qualified. The gate required BOTH a high min_rr (2.0) AND a high
min_target_probability (60), which became contradictory after the Jun-15
probability recalibration — probability already embeds R:R via the 1/(rr+1) ruin
term, so high-R:R targets are inherently low-probability and nothing cleared both.
Gate is now expected value (R): p*rr - (1-p) from the primary target's
probability. R:R and confidence stay as floors; high-conviction / exclude-conflicts
/ min-target-probability become optional tighteners (default off). Defaults:
min_expected_value=0.15, min_rr=1.2, min_confidence=55. EV is only enforced when
computable. Migration 009 clears stored activation_* rows so the new defaults
apply. Backtest sweeps min_expected_value instead of target probability.
Scheduling: pipelines are now cron-configurable in Admin -> Jobs. daily_pipeline
(full, default 0 7 * * *) plus a new light intraday_pipeline (OHLCV + outcome eval,
default hourly US session) that keeps prices/live-R:R current without setup churn.
Fundamentals on its own early weekly cron. Timezone configurable (default
Europe/Berlin). Moving interval->CronTrigger also fixes the restart-deferral bug
where an interval job's countdown resets on every process restart.
319 backend unit tests pass; frontend tsc clean.

The dashboard Top Setups list showed raw fields in arbitrary order with no
indication of why a ticker was listed or which was best. Now sort by expected
value (R) — probability-weighted payoff per unit risk — so the strongest
opportunity is row 1, badged "Top pick", with a new Exp. Value column that
folds R:R and target probability into one "is this worth taking" number.

Answers "why does a too-far-progressed setup still show": setups are only
recalculated by the scheduled R:R scan and manual fetch; at creation
entry == current price (0% progress), so over-progression is a
between-scans drift effect and must be judged at read time.
- /trades now attaches current_price (latest close per ticker).
- Qualification drops setups whose R:R recomputed from the current price
falls below min_rr — i.e. price already ran toward target (reward
consumed) or through the stop. Reuses the existing min_rr threshold
instead of a separate progress %; far cleaner (a 3:1 is already ~1:1
by 33% progress). Skipped for historical setups (no current_price).
- Fix: useFetchSymbolData now invalidates the trades queries, so a fetch/
recompute actually refreshes confidence/setups in the UI (was the cause
of the stale 100% confidence lingering after recompute).

- Overview Top Setups shows the primary target's probability (concrete,
distance-calibrated) instead of the overlapping confidence number. The
stale 100% confidences were leftovers from the old model and self-heal
on rescan; confidence stays in the detail view + gate.
- Each metric now has one home: composite = ranking, target probability =
actionability, confidence = direction conviction.
- Staleness message states the real basis (% of entry->target distance
already covered), not the raw % from entry, so narrow setups read
correctly ("67% of the move is gone").

Make "qualified" mean an edge candidate, not just R:R + confidence.
The gate now also requires (all admin-configurable, defaults on):
- high conviction: recommended_action LONG_HIGH / SHORT_HIGH only
- clean read: risk_level Low (no contradicting signals)
- probable primary target: best target probability >= min (default 60)
- Shared predicate: app/services/qualification.py +
frontend/src/lib/qualification.ts (mirrored)
- Activation config extended (min_target_probability,
require_high_conviction, exclude_conflicts) with bool-aware
get/update + validation
- /trades/performance switched to ?qualified_only=true, applying
the full gate server-side; confidence breakdown stays unfiltered
- Dashboard "Qualified", Signals "Qualified only" toggle, and
Track Record all use the one gate; Admin gains the new controls
Sentiment provider runtime config (prior change) included.
