User decision: "stick to the broker's time throughout the codebase and
analysis, session filter, programmed close time etc". Investigation
found the GMT choice was not just inconsistent but broken: live
journaling stamped DB rows with TimeGMT() while the online-learning
backfill stamped them with BAR time (server) - two clocks ~3h apart in
the same column. The newest-row duplicate guard compares them on one
axis, so a live row landing within the offset after a backfill row was
silently rejected as "outdated". dbVersion 3.0 -> 4.0 wipes the Signals
store: the only honest reset for a mixed-basis corpus.
- Direction()'s clock (stamps every journaled row, keys the per-second
vote window): TimeGMT -> TimeCurrent, variables renamed so the name
cannot lie about the basis.
- UpdateSignalsWeights' future-row bound: same clock as the rows.
- Session filter: broker-time anchors (London 10-18, NY 15-23:59, Tokyo
2-11). The GMT anchors were backwards for an EET-family broker - such
a broker follows European DST, so London is DST-STABLE in broker time
and moved twice a year in GMT. Tokyo drifts 1h each European summer
(no DST to track) - accepted, smallest error on offer. Also fixed:
inTimeInterval ignored its datetime parameter and called TimeGMT
fresh - a dead parameter hiding a hardwired clock.
- MetaCorpus/SignalMETA: rows pre-4.0 are GMT, broker since; the
GMT->server offset scan is KEPT because it measures rather than
assumes - it pins 0 on new corpora and still resolves old ones.
- AltDataFetch deliberately stays on GMT: FRED/COT/EIA release schedules
are external UTC-anchored events; the as-of join maps them onto server
bars downstream.
NOT COMPILED - user compiles in MetaEditor.

The warning lived inside the VerboseMode-gated corpus report, so a
forgotten wipe silently voided an entire 18-year corpus run - the
outdated-row guard rejected the whole replay against leftover rows
and the run appended 35 rows instead of building a corpus. The check
now runs unconditionally at tester OnInit (MetaCorpusStaleCheck): 52
quiet one-row newest-key probes vs the test start, with a loud stop-
wipe-rerun instruction when the DB is newer than the test. Absent
tables probe quietly via FetchNewestTimeKey''s new quiet flag.

The first corpus build produced 3,681 rows, all 2026, from an 18-year
backtest: ProcessSignal''s outdated-row guard rejects any registration
older than a row its table already holds (correct for a live stream),
so a tester run starting before the leftover rows'' dates silently
registers nothing for the overlap. The corpus report now prints a
loud WARNING when running in the tester with DB rows newer than the
test''s start: corpus builds start from an empty DB.

Implements stage S1 of Meta_Labeling_Design.md, superseding the
original "training-time ladder sweep": the per-side journaling from
652bf81/195be20 already produces the exact candidate stream a sweep
would compute - every pattern instance the live ladders fire, both
sides, uncensored, with netVote and touchable entry price - so the
corpus is READ from the DB instead of re-implementing 26 ladder
conditions in training code. That eliminates the silent-divergence
trap outright: the corpus is by construction identical to live
behaviour. Accepted costs are documented in the module and the doc:
coverage equals the populating backtest, and sampling is one
candidate per fire-stretch (the right dedup for training anyway).
- Expert\AIBase\MetaCorpus.mqh: CMetaCorpus reader (52 tables ->
SMetaCandidate rows) + VerboseMode OnInit report: volume/closed/
S&R-win-rate per family, span, and the GMT->server bar-offset
match table (offsets +0..+3h) that S2''s label plumbing pins to -
measured, not assumed.
- DB_MaxRowsPerTable input (default 1000 = old MAX_TABLE_ROWS): a
corpus build raises it (e.g. 20000) so a 15-20 year backtest
isn''t pruned; wired through CExpertSignalCustom::MaxTableRows().
- Report-only stage: nothing downstream consumes the corpus yet.
