Five modes went, all of them staking real risk on the model's confidence:
Intelligent entry (ENTRY_INTELLIGENT), stop (SL_INTELLIGENT), target
(TP_INTELLIGENT), trailing (CTrailingIntelligent) and lot size
(CMoneyIntelligent's quarter-Kelly). With them, the Confidence_Source
input and the CONFIDENCE_SOURCE enum, whose only job was choosing which
number those five read.
The reason is calibration, not correctness: the confidence magnitude is
known to be miscalibrated against the label prior, so every one of these
modes multiplied money by a quantity whose units were never established.
The DB arm had a second, independent defect - since the tester DB guard
(SignalDatabaseActive) it reads 0 in tester and optimizer but non-zero
live, so any backtest of CONF_DB/CONF_BLENDED could not reproduce live
trading. And what the DB produces is a filter-RANKING win rate, not a
per-trade win probability.
Both confidence numbers are still recorded per trade (aiConfidence /
dbConfidence) and still bucketed against outcome in TradeJournalReport.
Recording is what keeps the question answerable; acting on it was the
part with no evidence behind it. ConfidenceBridge.mqh now carries an
explicit telemetry-only rule at the top.
ENUM ORDINALS PINNED. Removing a member vacated a value in four enums at
once and MT5 does not validate an enum input replayed from a saved .set
or a stored optimization pass. TRAILING_STRATEGY and
MONEY_MANAGEMENT_STRATEGY now carry explicit values so the survivors keep
the numbers they were saved as, and ValidateBarrierInputs is widened into
ValidateTradeManagementInputs covering SL_Mode, TP_Mode,
Entry_Multiplier, TrailingStrategy and MM_STRATEGY. Without that gate a
chart saved with the Intelligent stop would feed SL_Mode = -1 into a
multiplier now used verbatim, placing the stop on the wrong side of entry.
RETRAIN-NEUTRAL: neither SL_Mode nor TP_Mode appears in
BuildModelFingerprint() or ComputeDbConfigFingerprint() since the
swing-pivot target replaced the barrier labels. No .nnw, .cfg or .db
re-keys. Also drops the now-dead g_TradeRewardRiskRatio bridge, the
CMoneyRiskBase::AdjustRiskAmount hook and the unsigned AIConfidence().

- Implemented sqx_audit.py to audit StrategyQuant X trade lists, focusing on performance metrics and cost analysis.
- Created sqx_portfolio.py to evaluate portfolio performance based on uncorrelated components and their impact on risk and return.
- Developed swing.py to analyze cost ratios across different holding periods and assess swing trading structures.
- Introduced test_management.py to investigate the effectiveness of exit rules on random entries and their impact on expectancy.
Raise MIN_ACTIVATION_DERIVATIVE from 1e-4 to 1e-3 in both Network.cl and Network.mqh
to strengthen the escape signal through saturated hidden neurons. This provides a 10x
stronger safety net against fp32 OpenCL-specific saturation, complementing the earlier
output-layer fix (logit activation instead of sigmoid) that resolved the primary neutral
collapse bug.
Add MathSrand(GetTickCount()) before BuildFreshTopology() in ExpertSignalAIBase.mqh
to guarantee genuinely random weight initialization after genetic tuner evaluations,
matching the final-retrain path and Warrior_EA.mq5's OnInit. This prevents the previous
deterministic RNG state from dominating weight init.
Also remove UTF‑8 BOM from ExpertSignalAIBase.mqh and Network.mqh for cleaner encoding.
Add MACD_FAST, MACD_SLOW, MACD_SIGNAL presets and Ichimoku Tenkan, Kijun, Senkou presets to InputEnums.mqh. All combinations are designed to satisfy the respective indicator's validation rules (fast < slow for MACD, Tenkan < Kijun < Senkou B for Ichimoku), eliminating init errors and allowing the auto-tuner to perturb settings independently.
Introduce VOTE_CLOSE_PRESETS enum with a Disabled option (value 101) that bypasses vote-driven position closing via arithmetic thresholding, removing the need for a separate boolean flag. This ensures positions exit only via stop-loss, take-profit, or trailing when disabled.
Replace the absolute thread count input (CpuDllThreads) with a percentage-based CPU_LOAD_PRESET enum (TargetCPULoad). This allows users to specify a percentage of detected cores to use when the CPU DLL fallback is active, improving flexibility and preventing issues when multiple instances share the same CPU DLL pool. Also adds CPU_GetHardwareConcurrency() for accurate core detection.
