Is the PEP momentum real?

Engine state as of 2026-09-01: LONG aged 4 bars, open uPnL -2.6%, total return -7.8%. Momentum is treated as a step-four check only — it never overrides the quality (100/100) and valuation gates that come before it.

How to read an aging signal

4 bars is relatively fresh, but every signal still owes you a current reason. uPnL measures the engine's history, not your future.
