📅 Timeline to Proof

Feb 24 (NOW) All critical bugs patched, new features deployed, systems scanning on 4h Feb 25-28 First picks from corrected pipeline. Expect 5-15 new trades. Early signal quality visible. Mar 1-7 30+ trades accumulated. Statistical significance begins. Ensemble coordinator active. Mar 7-14 50+ trades = Deflated Sharpe Ratio test. First “PROVEN” badge possible if WR > 55% & Sharpe > 1.0. Target 55-65% win rate, Sharpe > 1.5, max drawdown < 10%
