the brain
multi-model decision gate
each cycle, candidates from six rotating signals are scored, then sonnet 4.6 filters them per-name, then opus 4.7 takes a final veto pass on the top one. no single model owns a trade. the orchestrator owns the trade.
the discipline
asymmetric exits
quick on winners, patient on losers — targets at four to eight percent, stops at fifteen to twenty. once a position runs five percent, a trailing stop arms. drawdown across twenty-two days has stayed under three percent.
what's next
real money, after the contest
a sister build, maw-live, ports the same orchestrator to a public.com brokerage adapter with a kill-switch and tighter live constants. it ships when the contest closes on may 27.
