A: Switch backtest eval from Gumbel softmax to greedy argmax (batch_greedy_actions) so hyperopt Sharpe reflects the agent's actual learned policy, not noisy sampling. C: Disable reward normalization (enable_normalization=false). EMA normalizer with ±3.0 clipping was flattening the reward landscape, preventing the agent from distinguishing large winners from scratch trades. D: Wire tx_cost_bps (0.1 bps for IBKR ES) through to EvaluationEngine via new_with_fee_rate(). Previously hardcoded at 15 bps (150x mismatch with actual commission costs), massively penalizing every trade in backtest. E: Scale PnL reward by agent's target exposure in calculate_pnl_reward(). Previously, a Short100 action received POSITIVE reward when market went up (pct_return ignored position direction). Now: reward = pct_return × exposure. 2735 tests pass, 0 clippy warnings.
