What's shipping this month

Dated. Honest. Manual-only posture. Updated only when something changes that matters.

Live trading terminal running manual-only on a $2K Upcomer Vanguard account. Stage 2.5 multi-asset sweep: 37 cells scored at 15m resolution, 0 survived FDR at q=0.10. Vanguard 2K synthesis: 0/26 cleared. Walk-forward OOS standardization rolling out across 8 quant projects by end of August.

  • Bloomberg-style trading terminal.9-panel layout for the live Upcomer Vanguard $2k account. Manual-only posture binding. Yahoo + Binance live data. 6-hour AFK build, CONVERGED 2026-08-08.
  • Stage 2.5 multi-asset sweep.37 cells scored at 15m resolution across XAU/XAG/BTC/ETH. 11 carry the G16 monotone-positive fingerprint, 0 survive FDR at q=0.10. Resolution-invariant. Vector coverage is the constraint.
  • Vanguard 2K synthesis.0/26 cleared (BTC 3/3 + Gold 19/19 + Silver 3/3 KILL). Signal firer dormant, manual-only. Top-3 priorities queued.

Currently reading

  • Shreve, Stochastic Calculus for Finance II.Ch. 4. Itô lemma + change-of-numéraire. Anchors the vol-target time-series momentum framework.
  • Bailey & López de Prado, Deflated Sharpe Ratio.Re-read for the G16 rule wording across the methodology page.
  • Deming, Out of the Crisis.System of Profound Knowledge. Common cause vs special cause. Maps cleanly onto the 31-gate eval harness.

Currently thinking about

  • The vector-coverage gap.Stage 2 keeps killing on coverage, not edge. Worth adding a G-candidate for regime-stratified sample-size minimums before Stage 3 burns another sweep.
  • Eval bars for LLM-eval claims.A single Brier + FDR pair beats every "vibe" leaderboard. Standardizing the wording so multi-agent eval pages cite the same gate IDs as quant research.
