Every trade, dissected.

No equity curve hand-waving. Each trade broken down to the cent — signal quality, entry slippage, how it behaved while open (MAE/MFE), broker-confirmed P&L vs what the bot thought, and exactly where money leaks to fees and slippage. This is the layer that tells you where the edge is captured and where it bleeds.

Verdict: good signal. Kept 99.1% of gross. Cost = $1.48 fees only (0.91%). Fill beat the bot’s own model by +$3.52 — favorable slippage the bot didn’t book. This is why broker_net matters.

What each number means. Signal quality — was the entry condition one our backtests reward (GOOD) or noise/whipsaw (BAD)?   Slippage — fill price vs the quote at signal; >1.5bp flags a fill problem.   MAE / MFE — worst and best unrealized point while open; tells us if we exited early (realized < 50% of MFE) or survived a deep drawdown (> 60% of stop).   Synthetic vs broker-truth — what the bot reported vs what actually cleared; the gap is real cost the bot doesn't see.   Left on table — MFE minus realized; the profit that was there and we didn't take.   Every figure is reconciled against the broker statement — synthetic numbers never count.
