Driven by ffr59 (commit b44a97ff9) findings: all 5 horizons flip
direction every 2.5 events; win rate flat 24% across conviction; mean
PnL anti-correlated with conviction. Hypothesis: per-event alpha output
is high-frequency noise on top of a slower signal. If true, smoothing
input alpha BEFORE the conviction formula should reduce direction flips
and recover signal.
Adds Wiener-α adaptive EMA on raw alpha_probs[h] for each horizon,
applied BEFORE the multi-horizon conviction formula. Floor at 0.1
(stronger than the 0.4 floor on the output-side conviction EMA — this
tests whether INPUT smoothing has different impact than OUTPUT smoothing).
Three new device slots:
- alpha_ema_per_b_per_h (per-horizon EMA state)
- alpha_diff_var_per_b_per_h (variance of changes)
- alpha_sample_var_per_b_per_h (variance of value)
The CRT.diag Group A direction-flip counter still reads RAW alpha_probs
so we have a head-to-head comparison: raw flip rate vs smoothed flip rate.
Group E adds the smoothed-direction counter + mean run length.
End-of-run log adds one line per horizon:
crt_diag h<X> smoothed: flips=Y mean_run_len=Z events (vs raw F / M)
If smoothed mean_run_len >> raw mean_run_len: hypothesis is RIGHT, the
input had signal under the noise. Next step would be to make this an
operational EMA in the controller.
If smoothed and raw are similar: hypothesis is WRONG, per-event output
is genuinely noisy. Next step would be to investigate model training
(horizon collapse) OR the AUC=0.66 measurement definition.
Either way, definitive result from one smoke run.

ML Models
Four production model architectures on Candle v0.9.1 with CUDA:
- DQN Rainbow -- Deep Q-Network with prioritized replay, dueling heads, noisy nets
- PPO -- Proximal Policy Optimization with GAE and LSTM policies
- TFT -- Temporal Fusion Transformer for multi-horizon forecasting
- Mamba2 -- State space model for sequence prediction
Each model has a standalone trainer and a UnifiedTrainable adapter for the hyperopt pipeline.
Infrastructure
- Git: Gitea at
git.fxhnt.ai(Tailscale-only), Scaleway DEV1-S - Observability: OpenTelemetry OTLP (env
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT) - Database: PostgreSQL with SQLx offline mode for CI
