## Scope and limitations

These are machine-extracted research records, not verified trading systems. Catalog rank measures specification detail and claimed evidence, not profitability. The catalog extraction pipeline did not independently backtest these records. Its separate selected testing ledger does not validate the wider corpus. Rules, labels and parameters can be incomplete or wrong; consult the original source and its reuse terms.

No endorsement, ownership claim or source-code reuse permission is implied.

## Extraction warnings

Claim warnings: IMPLAUSIBLE PROFIT FACTOR: claimed 6.28. Over any real sample this is far outside what retail FX sustains.; THIN SAMPLE: 84 trades - below the ~100 needed before a win rate or profit factor carries much information.
