Known Issues & Recommendations

Critical Issues (Production Blockers)

NONE - All 3 production-ready models have zero blocking issues.

Non-Blocking Issues

1. Feature 211 (ADX) NaN Issue (Priority P2, 2-4 hours)

   • Impact: DQN uses 201 features instead of 225
   • Root cause: ADX calculation produces NaN on zero-volatility bars
   • Fix: Implement lazy initialization in RegimeADXFeatures
   • Benefit: DQN will use full 225 features (+12% more data)

2. TFT GPU Memory Constraint (Priority P3, 1-2 days)

   • Impact: TFT not production-ready
   • Solution: Rent AWS/GCP A100 24GB GPU instance
   • Cost: ~$20-40 for 1-2 days training
   • Timeline: Wave 8

3. Code Quality Warnings (Priority P4, 15-20 hours)

   • 2,358 clippy warnings
   • 7 test functions need async keyword
   • No impact on functionality

Next Steps

Immediate (1-2 weeks): Production Deployment

1. Deploy 3 Models to Paper Trading:

   # Start all services
   docker-compose up -d
   
   # Load models
   tli ml load-model --model mamba2 --path ml/checkpoints/mamba2_dbn/best_model_epoch_10.safetensors

   # Start paper trading
   tli trade ml start-predictions --interval 30 --symbols ES.FUT,NQ.FUT
   

2. Monitor Performance:

   • Regime transitions (5-10 per day expected)
   • Position sizing (0.2x-1.5x range)
   • Stop-loss adjustments (1.5x-4.0x ATR)
   • Sharpe ratio (target: 1.5-2.0)
   • Win rate (target: 55-60%)

3. Validate Wave D Features:

   • Track regime detection accuracy
   • Monitor Kelly Criterion position sizing
   • Validate dynamic stop-loss effectiveness

Wave 8 (1-2 weeks): TFT Training & Refinement

1. TFT Cloud GPU Training (1-2 days, ~$40):

   • Rent AWS p3.2xlarge (V100 16GB) or p3.8xlarge (A100 24GB)
   • Train TFT with full 225-feature configuration
   • Expected training time: 3-5 hours
   • Save model and deploy to production

2. Fix Feature 211 (ADX NaN) (2-4 hours):

   • Implement lazy ADX initialization
   • Retrain DQN with full 225 features
   • Validate +12% data improvement

3. Wave Comparison Backtest (1 week):

   • Compare Wave C baseline (Sharpe 1.50) vs Wave D (current)
   • Expected: +25-50% Sharpe, +10-15% win rate, -20-30% drawdown
   • Validate C→D improvement: +0.50 Sharpe, +9.1% win rate

Long-Term (1-3 months): Production Validation

1. Paper Trading (2-4 weeks):

   • Monitor 24/7 with Grafana dashboards
   • Track regime transitions, position sizing, stop-loss
   • Validate rollback procedures

2. Live Deployment (after paper trading validation):

   • Deploy to production with real capital
   • Start with small position sizes (1-5% of target)
   • Gradually increase exposure over 4-8 weeks
