Sector ETFs — Track record
Every elapsed decision is graded against what prices actually did — hit-rates and errors per signal family, plus the cost of the decisions this book chose not to take.

Counterfactuals Counterfactuals grade decisions that were NOT executed — expired queues, no-chase rules, untaken optional trims — against what the market then did. They are kept strictly separate from the calibration cells above.
What the decisions we didn't take would have done.
- No-chase queue (queued a pullback instead of chasing) — 12 cases , median would-have 1W move +0.2% → verdict: cost
- Optional trims not taken — 3 cases , median would-have 1W move +0.6% → verdict: saved
- Anticipate slot (pre-breakout buy-stop) — 2 cases → verdict: n/a
Counterfactuals are advisory evidence for the book's learnings reviews — never blended into the calibration cells.
