Notes from the desk
Short, honest write-ups on how AUMERA is built: governance, control loops, and the reasoning behind decisions that stay legible.
Why Crypto Bots Can Fail During Liquidation Cascades
How thin liquidity and execution costs can undermine a breakout signal, and how independent review can hold a paper proposal.
Half-Kelly sizing and the limits of an estimated edge
How fractional sizing changes exposure, why estimates matter, and why a sizing rule cannot prove profitability.
Read the article Market MicrostructureReading order-book depth without overstating the evidence
What public order-book depth can show, what snapshots cannot establish, and how to label the evidence.
Read the article GovernanceGoverned by design, not by discipline
Why AUMERA keeps opportunity discovery and capital authority in two hands that can’t merge, and what that buys you when a plausible thesis is wrong.
Read the article ArchitectureInside the seven-layer control loop
A walkthrough of the deterministic pipeline that turns raw public market observation into a bounded, auditable, and fail-closed trading decision.
Read the articleRelease timeline & governance log
A chronological record of autonomous trading loop upgrades, multi-agent verifications, and deterministic safety fences.
Paper scan intent across restarts
The supervisor preserves explicit run or pause intent across restart and checks the loaded paper generation. Healthy exit monitoring and entry readiness remain separate checks; this is not a 24-hour availability certification.
Half-Kelly Dynamic Sizing & Stressed Loss Capital Floor
Added reference fractional-sizing and modeled loss constraints. These are research controls, not a guarantee of growth or maximum loss. Active paper strategies retain their separately configured entry and exit policies.
Order-Flow Microstructure Engine & Liquidity Absorption
Added public-depth checks to research qualification. A depth snapshot does not establish individual order age, participant identity, or spoofing intent; unavailable evidence must remain unavailable.
Seven-Layer Deterministic Trading Pipeline & Fencing
Established formal segregation between Opportunity Discovery (statistical specialists) and Order Authority (Head-of-Trading gatekeeper). Sealed trade fencing strictly enforcing live_order_permission: false.
