Extraction warnings
Claim warnings
- HIGH PROFIT FACTOR: claimed 3.06. Treat as an in-sample or curve-fitted figure until reproduced out of sample.
- THIN SAMPLE: 45 trades - below the ~100 needed before a win rate or profit factor carries much information.
Opacity warnings
- UNDEFINED ENTRY TERM: the entry conditions are prose naming a concept with no numeric definition, so two readers would implement them differently. Advisory only -- this does not affect the score.
