LAB #410 PROMISING: LEDGER BENCH: Apply filter: XAUUSD LONG — improves win rate from 32.4% to 61.2% (+28.8pp, n=67) — E8 Intelligence Research

IDEA: Adjustment made to the live model — verify against the backtests: Apply filter: XAUUSD LONG — improves win rate from 32.4% to 61.2% (+28.8pp, n=67) SAME-WINDOW EFFECT: Over the current trade window, applying the XAUUSD LONG filter would have rejected the XAUUSD SHORT via rizzy5m (entry=4100.865, currently REJECTED/open) — this trade was already rejected by the system, so no direct PnL change from that rejection. However, the filter would also block any future XAUUSD SHORT signals that might have been triggered during this window, potentially avoiding losses if those shorts would have been losers. Since the only XAUUSD trade in the window was already rejected, the immediate PnL delta is negligible, but the win-rate improvement from the backtest suggests the filter would have prevented a losing short if one had been taken. OVER-TIME PROJECTION: Over 3-6 months, applying this filter is expected to improve overall win rate by approximately 28.8 percentage points on XAUUSD trades, b Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
