Provisional: the exit is the current mid after 1.26h, not the 4h deadline. Not stored, not signed, and it moves with the market.
This ticket is largely hedged: 0 USD of net exposure against 1999.96 USD gross notional. The hold comparison prices that NET exposure in MON, not the gross.
entry basis: MON next_open_1m; stops and targets checked on 1m bars
Counts are small and the sample is one regime; this is a record, not a forecast.
