The penalty (even at 0.001) + stop-loss taught Q to stop trading.
PnL briefly flipped positive (+$40k) then collapsed (dones=0).
Disable penalty (rate=0.0) and set stop-loss to 10× mean_abs_pnl
(emergency-only, not per-trade). Keep gate exemption (A1) and
adaptive LOSS clamp (A4) — these help Q LEARN about losses without
overriding its decisions.
Also includes perf fixes: sync_training_event removed + 24 memsets
disabled.
