Paper — every trading figure here (positions, orders, P&L, equity, returns) is simulated on an Alpaca paper account. No real capital is at risk, and no order is ever placed with your money. Running costs shown under ops, such as LLM spend, are real.

Strategies & the Strategy Matrix

A trading approach is a set of rules for when to buy and when to sell. This page shows which PAPER approaches are active and how well each one is working.

What this page shows

Each row is a strategy — a named, rule-based approach to trading. The most important thing to notice is its tier, which tells you how the approach is being evaluated in the PAPER-only system.

  • ·PAPER Active — actively placing protected orders in the connected Alpaca paper account. No real capital is used.
  • ·PAPER Shadow — a simulated or shadow lane used to collect evidence without representing a real-capital deployment.
  • ·Research — tested against historical data only, never submitted to an account.

A strategy earns stronger PAPER evidence through research, shadow and active PAPER observation. The product does not promote any strategy to real-capital trading.

The Strategy Matrix

The Matrix is a grid where each cell is one combination of a trading approach applied to a market sector. It answers a simple question: which approaches actually work, and where? You can view it two ways.

  • ·Maturity view— shows how much evidence each combination has. Brand new means too few trades to trust the numbers; refining means it's showing signal but still learning; champion means it has enough closed trades to be statistically solid.
  • ·Profit & loss view— green means that combination is making money, red means it's losing and is a candidate for refinement, grey means no closed trades yet.

An empty grid is expected, not broken

Early on, most cells in the Matrix are empty — and that's exactly right. The system refuses to draw conclusions until it has real evidence. A grid with a few proven cells and many blanks is the true picture of what has actually been learned so far. Win rates on tiny samples are hidden deliberately, because they can be misleading.

How to use it

Use the Strategies list to confirm which PAPER approaches are active at a glance. Use the Matrix to see where the system has earned conviction — the green, champion cells are the combinations carrying the real track record.

Reading exit settings

Expand an RSI-2 strategy or variant to see the retired time-exit setting during its compatibility window. It is disabled and cannot be enabled; the strategy still has its ordinary protective stop, profit target, and recovery-signal exits. #293 removes the temporary field from this page.
