# Merge 03 of batch r3-deepen-current: evidence table for 10 items **No promotion.** All ten items are screening results against the incumbent B (code SHA-256 `bf0d179f…ffae`). Each used tuning seeds 310000..310199 and holdout seeds 410000..410499 (n=500). None ran finalist seeds 900000..903999. The scoreboard best stays B. Each row below measures one policy against B, so nothing is pooled across policies. Every item reports `complete: true` with no failures or missing seeds. ## Verification done in this merge - I recomputed the SHA-256 of each item's `code` field (UTF-8 bytes) and it equals its `code_sha256` for all 10. The code is not duplicated here. Full code stays in each input result (`code` field), located by the `input_result_locator` in the table. - Every row's `incumbent_code_sha256` equals B (`bf0d179f…`). There are no comparator mismatches. I did not re-download B, so the B hash is checked only as what each item recorded. - Each item's own flag arrays (`failures`, `failed_flags`) are empty. I did not re-run any simulation. - `artifact_sha256` is the SHA-256 given in this task's input metadata for each result file. `code_url` is `https://api.imd.fun/artifacts/`. The digest is of the result JSON, which contains the code, not of the bare code string. - Spread labels: items state they verified the label against the sampled competitor spread; I did not re-check this. ## Source-flag caveat The requester says some cited sources did not hold when re-read: s3-replenish (1 source), s3-recollateralize (2 sources), s3-order-ledger (1 source). The `sources.json` files were not among my inputs, so I cannot say which citations failed. I also found no URL quoted in those three results other than the simulator tree and the incumbent artifact (in s3-order-ledger). Their numbers come from local paired simulation. I take only the numbers from them and treat any literature or background claim in them as unsupported. None of the three shows a gain either way, so the caveat changes no conclusion. ## Screening summary per target spread (mean paired d, SE in brackets; edge units per simulation) Holdout n per spread: s1=115, s2=116, s3=138, s4=131. Tuning n per spread: s1=47, s2=57, s3=53, s4=43. "z" is the holdout mean divided by its SE. Retail/arb are the holdout differences for the target spread (retail+arb equals d). | item | target s | tuning d (SE) | holdout d at target s (SE) | holdout overall d (SE) | z | holdout retail / arb diff (target s) | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | s2-bank-cash-cap | 2 | +0.278 (0.451) | +0.063 (0.923) | +0.015 (0.213) | +0.07 | -0.1035 / +0.1662 | | s3-replenish | 3 | +0.017 (0.064) | -0.038 (0.066) | -0.011 (0.018) | -0.59 | -0.06968 / +0.03119 | | s3-premium-payback | 3 | +0.000 (0.000) | +0.000 (0.000) | +0.000 (0.000) | n/a | +0 / +0 | | s2-late-uncovered | 2 | +0.011 (0.012) | -0.001 (0.002) | -0.000 (0.000) | -0.70 | +3.774e-06 / -0.001481 | | s3-recollateralize | 3 | -0.034 (0.031) | +1.183 (1.134) | +0.327 (0.313) | +1.04 | +0.909 / +0.2744 | | s2-flow-exposure | 2 | -0.221 (0.252) | -0.301 (0.240) | -0.070 (0.056) | -1.26 | -0.02141 / -0.2799 | | s3-censor-cap | 3 | +0.002 (0.001) | +0.030 (0.030) | +0.008 (0.008) | +1.03 | -0.0003705 / +0.03071 | | s2-flow-jump-mask | 2 | +0.056 (0.150) | +0.351 (0.221) | +0.081 (0.051) | +1.59 | +2.603e-06 / +0.3509 | | s3-order-ledger | 3 | +0.001 (0.004) | +0.035 (0.032) | +0.010 (0.009) | +1.11 | -0.002046 / +0.03726 | | s1-two-cent-commit | 1 | -0.017 (0.017) | +0.031 (0.084) | +0.007 (0.019) | +0.37 | -0.04125 / +0.07262 | **Per spread.** - **Spread 1:** only s1-two-cent-commit. Holdout +0.031 (SE 0.084) at s1, so no effect. - **Spread 2:** four items. - s2-flow-jump-mask is the only positive, at +0.351 (SE 0.221), z=1.59, all on the arb side. - s2-bank-cash-cap gives +0.063 (SE 0.923). - s2-late-uncovered gives -0.001 (SE 0.002). - s2-flow-exposure is negative at -0.301 (SE 0.240), all arb. - **Spread 3:** five items. - s3-recollateralize is +1.183 (SE 1.134) at s3, driven by a single seed (see flags). - s3-order-ledger is +0.035 (SE 0.032). - s3-censor-cap is +0.030 (SE 0.030). - s3-replenish is -0.038 (SE 0.066). - s3-premium-payback is exactly 0, because its selected variant never changed an outcome. - **Spread 4:** no item targeted it. - **Verdict:** no item exceeds 2 SE on its own spread. Overall holdout gains are at most +0.33, against SE 0.3 or more for the largest, so none can be ranked. A final ranking needs thousands of paired seeds on 900000..903999, run by a measure item, which has not happened. ## What the results learned - **Estimator tweaks are inert to slightly negative.** The flow estimator changes (censor-cap, order-ledger, flow-exposure, flow-jump-mask) moved edge by less than 0.1 per simulation overall. The flow-jump-mask item says s2 ask sizing barely uses the flow estimate, only the 1-tick YES stock. It suggests applying the masked estimate to s2 ask sizing as a next step. - **Cash and inventory gates mostly never fire.** premium-payback changed nothing, and replenish and recollateralize changed only a few seeds. recollateralize says cash binds rarely on s3. - **Heavy tails.** recollateralize's holdout sum_d is 163.31, of which seed 410361 contributes +156.44. Without it the other four changed seeds sum to +6.87 (item's own figures). bank-cash-cap's holdout sum_d2 is about 11372 on a mean of 0.015, so a few seeds carry the variance. - **Nothing here attacks the arbitrage loss directly.** The screening shows none of these ten is a lever for the gap to first place (about -2.6 arbitrage and about -2.2 retail points). ## Per-row notes (flags) - **s2-bank-cash-cap**: Caps cash resting in the tick-1 penny-bank bid to 10% of equity (cash + Y*phat). BANK_FRAC 0.10 chosen over 0.25 on tuning. Flags: holdout run interrupted by tool timeout after seed 410344; suffix 410345..410499 rerun with same frozen code, no seed replaced (item note); retail/arb differences reported as per-seed means (retail_diff_mean/arb_diff_mean), same quantity as retail_diff/arb_diff elsewhere; holdout sum_d2 11372 indicates heavy-tailed per-seed d - **s3-replenish**: Tags stock purchases (m-prefix client IDs) and subtracts still-resting purchases from the stock-target shortfall before sizing new ones. Flags: item flagged by the requester: 1 cited source did not hold when re-read; sources.json not supplied to this merge so the exact source is unidentified. Result is a measured simulation, not dependent on the quote - **s3-premium-payback**: Gates the ammo "premium-to-phat" purchase on whether the premium cost is covered by estimated remaining retail edge. Selected C2 (stochastic demand bound); the other variant was mean-demand bound. Flags: selected C2 identical to B on every one of 700 tuning+holdout seeds (all d exactly 0): gate never changed behaviour - **s2-late-uncovered**: Late (H<300) and phat<0.05: scales the terminal uncovered-ask allowance above the ordinary budget by retail_gain/(retail_gain+jump_loss). No flags. - **s3-recollateralize**: Cancel and repost a kept inside-rival ask whose size is uncovered, once YES inventory can cover it; selected C2 fires only when cash binds. Flags: item flagged by the requester: 2 cited sources did not hold when re-read; sources.json not supplied so unidentified; holdout +0.327 dominated by one seed: 410361 d=+156.44 of sum_d +163.31 (item text); only 5 of 138 s3 seeds differ from B; repost counts (61 C2 / 797 C1) not reconciled against an independent count (item text) - **s2-flow-exposure**: Replaces the binary flow-exposure increment of 1 with 1/last_flow_correction (capacity-fractional exposure) in the spread-2 flow estimator. No flags. - **s3-censor-cap**: Lowers the cap on the censoring correction in the spread-3 flow estimate from 3.0 to 1.5 (B cap never binds; max factor ~1.823). Flags: holdout run interrupted by tool timeout after 783 records; resumed, every (seed,strategy) once (item note); cap chosen on tuning from 1.5 vs 1.25 - **s2-flow-jump-mask**: Spread-2 flow estimator drops an observation when the rival ask rose at all or the rival bid moved >1 tick (variant CB; CA was ask-only). Flags: B alone ran once on seeds 310000..310002 as a smoke test before tuning; output discarded, those seeds then rerun in tuning (item note); variant CB chosen on tuning by higher mean - **s3-order-ledger**: Spread-3 demand estimator uses a per-order ledger of quantity reductions on tracked ask IDs instead of aggregate sell_filled_quantity. Flags: item flagged by the requester: 1 cited source did not hold when re-read; the only URLs in the result are the simulator tree and incumbent artifact (both verified-looking), sources.json not supplied - **s1-two-cent-commit**: Spread 1: caps a new 2-cent ask size at K*fl_rate*H/0.02 shares (K=1 chosen; K=0.5 worse on tuning). Flags: two variants tried (K=1 chosen, K=0.5); holdout nonzero only on s1 ## Full evidence table (JSON) The numbers are strings copied unrounded from the item results (n, sum_d, sum_d2, mean_diff, se, retail_diff, arb_diff). `tuning` and `paired` hold groups `overall` and `s1`..`s4` (paired = holdout 410000..410499). `retail_diff` and `arb_diff` are the per-seed means (bank-cash-cap's `retail_diff_mean` and `arb_diff_mean`). Where the tuning block covers a selected variant, it is for the variant whose code is cited, and the item's other variant(s) are in its own result. For s2-bank-cash-cap the code carries BANK_FRAC=0.10 and the 0.25 variant is in its result. Tuning and holdout seeds do not overlap. ```json { "incumbent_B_sha256": "bf0d179f3e47d28819f6fa7e0d25548c2ced43374c216d36460b00a26a26ffae", "rows": [ { "key": "s2-bank-cash-cap", "idea": "Caps cash resting in the tick-1 penny-bank bid to 10% of equity (cash + Y*phat).
