Publish first. Measure second.
No simulated trade enters the official record after the favorable price move has already happened.

PAPER
PORTFOLIO.
Hypothetical money. Real timestamps. Every position is published before the result is known, then measured against the market instead of remembered selectively afterward.
NOT REAL MONEYThis is a research simulation and public performance experiment, not a brokerage account or individualized investment advice. Market marks are delayed/end-of-day where available.

Simulation starts with $100,000. Performance begins prospectively with the first published trade. We do not backfill a greatest-hits album and call it a track record.
OPEN POSITIONS
Capital currently under test.
Each position must point back to a published thesis and state what evidence would invalidate it.
| Position | Entry | Shares | Current mark | P/L | Thesis / failure condition |

CLOSED LEDGER
No disappearing mistakes.
Closed positions remain in the public record with entry, exit, return, and the reason the position was closed.

RULES OF THE GAME
The record only means something if we make cheating inconvenient.
Every decision gets a timestamp.
Entries, exits, thesis changes, and corrections live in version history. Silent retroactive editing is prohibited.
Winning is relative.
The portfolio is compared with SPY from the first official trade so a rising market cannot masquerade as analytical genius.
Position size counts.
A 200% winner in a microscopic allocation does not erase a concentrated loser. Portfolio contribution is measured in dollars and percentage points.
Every thesis needs a break condition.
Before entry, state what evidence would weaken or kill the thesis. Otherwise every failure can be rewritten into a long-term vision quest.
Losses stay on the wall.
Closed losers, abandoned theses, dilution, opportunity cost, and bad timing remain part of the public performance record.
Performance disclosure. Simulated results do not represent actual trading and can differ materially from real execution because of spreads, slippage, liquidity, taxes, fees, position limits, and human behavior. A short run of strong performance does not establish that a strategy will continue to outperform.
