# Backtest report index

Reports dated 2026-07-11 or earlier are the historical production research
record and are intentionally left untouched.

The retained 2026-07-12/13 S/R reports mark a decision or provide the matching
control for one:

- The initial full-period clean-detector regression,
  `backtest-20260712-sr-detector-rewrite.json`, remains a local-only report and
  is intentionally not added to version control.
- `backtest-sr-v2-train-production_control.json`: pre-July-2024 production
  control shared by the detector matrices.
- `backtest-sr-v2-train-rewrite.json` and
  `backtest-sr-v2-train-rewrite_legacy_primary.json`: isolate detector geometry
  from the primary-target selector.
- `backtest-sr-v2-train-rr_aligned_control.json` and
  `backtest-sr-v2-validation-rr_aligned_control.json`: show why primary target
  selection must not simply inherit the 2.0 activation floor.
- `backtest-sr-traffic-train-legacy_traffic_grid_only.json`: reproduces the
  accidental legacy grid edge.
- `backtest-sr-traffic-train-legacy_range_grid_neutral.json`: proves that the
  grid effect does not require volume or touch strength.
- `backtest-sr-v2-validation-production_control.json` and
  `backtest-sr-v2-validation-legacy_range_grid_neutral.json`: the post-2024
  control and failed range-grid replication. The compact paired result remains
  in `sr-v2-validation-comparison.json` and `sr-v2-validation-cohorts.csv`.
- `backtest-sr-range-factor-train-production_range504.json` and
  `backtest-sr-range-factor-train-rewrite_range504_legacy_primary.json`: isolate
  the explicit 504-day multiplicative-range factor.
- `backtest-sr-range-residual-train-rewrite_range504_structural_legacy_primary.json`
  and `backtest-sr-range-residual-train-rewrite_range504_structural_primary2.json`:
  the final target-source and primary-floor decision.

The full-period production comparison writes:

- `backtest-sr-full-production_control.json`
- `backtest-sr-full-rewrite_range504_structural_legacy_primary.json`
- `sr-full-production-vs-candidate-comparison.json`
- `sr-full-production-vs-candidate-cohorts.csv`

Those outputs should be retained as the final decision point for this research
branch.
