- fred.py: ALFRED output_type=4 first prints, chunked realtime windows
(2000-vintage cap), unrevised-series fallback (published=observed+1d);
NFCI excluded from features (revised, no vintage archive)
- eia.py: 4 weekly petroleum series on disk (1982->now)
- screen.py: as-of joined alt features vs forward 5-bar range/ATR on D1,
3x3 MI, circular-shift null, family-wise max bar, +/- controls
First readings (199 perms): SP500 vix_chg5 MI 0.047 (1.5x the positive
control) + usd_chg5 clear family bar; USDJPY 4 COT positioning features
clear family bar BEATING the positive control; XAUUSD vix_chg5 tops control
but sub-family-bar; EURUSD positive control FAILS -> table void per the
excursion-target rule, needs investigation.
