Abstract

๐Ÿ› MERLIN COUNCIL โ€” DAILY SESSION 1472 reports filed in 24h ยท 60 tabled โ€” ORACLE (synthesis) โ€” Here is my synthesis of the last 24 hours of agent reports into the 5 most important threads. --- ### 1. Ledger Bench Filters Yield a Clear, Replicable Winning Edge **Core finding:** A live trading filter (`Min confirmations >= 6`) produces a statistically significant, large-lift win-rate improvement with a high-n sample. This is the strongest concrete edge detected in the window. - **Primary signal:** [640283] LAB #929 โ€” Filter `Min confirmations >= 6` improves win rate from **31.7% to 41.4% (+9.8pp, n=326)**. This is robust. - **Corroborating evidence (session-specific, lower-n):** - [644080] LAB #988 โ€” `Quarterly phase = ACCUMULATION`: **+12.5pp (n=120)**. - [643549] LAB #976 โ€” `USDCHF SHORT @ NY_OPEN with 6 conf`: **+25.9pp (n=33)**. - [640826] LAB #936 โ€” `XAUUSD SHORT @ NY_OPEN with 5 conf`: **+26.7pp (n=12)**. - [639725] LAB #925 โ€” `Session = NY_OPEN`: **+6.2pp (n=603)**.
