Research protocol / 8 Jul 2026
XRM5 monitored demo observation.
The protocol defines what will be recorded before any forward conclusion is published. It contains no forward performance result because the unseen sample has not started.
Purpose
Measure whether the frozen historical candidate behaves operationally as expected on genuinely unseen data, without changing its declared risk configuration during observation.
Pre-start record
Version identifier, parameter checksum, account type, broker, XAUUSD specification, VPS environment and observation start time must be recorded before the first eligible event.
Operational evidence
Uptime, spread context, slippage, rejected or modified orders, execution delay and implementation discrepancies will be reviewed separately from trade outcome.
Performance evidence
Observation days, eligible events, closed trades, cumulative R and drawdown may be published only from the complete forward segment. Empty or inactive periods remain part of the record.
Change control
A strategy or risk change ends the current segment. The new build must begin a separately dated observation record rather than being merged into the prior sample.
Publication boundary
No forward profitability, release readiness or broker compatibility conclusion is currently available. Historical evidence remains separate from the future demo record.
