+"""HMM-regime overlay TopkDropout strategy.
+
+Regime-gate overlay on ``qlib.contrib.strategy.signal_strategy.TopkDropoutStrategy``:
+selection and sizing are identical to the reference, but a name is only BOUGHT
+(entry gate) when its per-symbol HMM regime posterior ``sp_hmm_p_regime1`` on
+the signal date is >= ``regime_threshold``; otherwise it is held in cash instead
+of being opened.
+
+The regime posterior is read from the lake feature provider on the fly via
+``qlib.data.D.features`` (field ``$sp_hmm_p_regime1``) for the signal window, so
+no regime column needs to enter the model's ``feature_fields`` — the gate is a
+pure overlay (book ch.01: regime flags regressed as model features, survived
+only as an overlay). The HMM itself was fit with ``fit_end=<train end>`` when
+the lake features were backfilled, so there is no lookahead.
+
+Names already held are NOT force-sold when the regime turns unfavourable
+(entry gate only, matching the queue-10 design).

+the topk/n_drop selection and sizing are identical to the reference, but the
+target book is recomputed only on the first trading day of each ISO week; on the
+other days the strategy issues NO orders (holds the book untouched).
+
+The weekly cadence is derived from the qlib trade calendar: a rebalance happens
+when the current trade step's date belongs to a different ISO ``(year, week)``
+than the previous trade step. ``hold_band_pct`` (default 0) optionally skips
+tiny rebalances: when a name's existing position differs from the new target by
+less than this fraction, no order is generated for it.

+
+### Deferred (methodology / infra, P3)
+- Purged / walk-forward CV (was queue's old Q12) — methodology, not an alpha lever.
+- PSI-based drift-aware retraining cadence — needs a drift-gate module + a retrain decision rule.
+- No-trade buffer band / notional-vs-qty sizing — siblings of Q12/Q13; queue only if weekly reproduces.
+- Macro/drift overlays (SPY>200d regime gate, momentum tilt) — needs new data pipeline.
+
+## Execution protocol (per queued run)
+
+1. **Validate the lake first** (`validate_lake_dataset` + `rd_status`) — clean-lake lesson: silent NaN-drops and hollow coverage invalidate a run. Q14 additionally requires backfilling the single-stock universe (bars + sp/ta features, full range, explicit `start`/`end`).
+2. **Trace before running** (`rd_trace_start` with the hypothesis as `rational`, fresh `experiment_name`, `evolved_from=auto`).
+3. **Run** `rd_run_workflow config_path=<abs path to the queue YAML> experiment_name=<fresh name>` — `wait=false`, poll `rd_exp_get_run` until `FINISHED`.
+4. **Verify against acceptance** via `rd_exp_result` (headline + backtest risk).
+5. **Finish the trace** (`rd_trace_finish` with `metrics` + `evaluation`), snapshot any changed contrib modules.
+6. **Report to the book** — PROVE/REFUTE → update `book/CLAIMS.md` + `book/EVIDENCE.md`.
+
+Sequential execution only (concurrent runs hang — chat-ideas.md ops lesson). Any
+custom strategy/module changed here must be copied into the venv site-packages
+snapshot before `rd_run_workflow` can import it (see `/app/AGENTS.md`). As of
+2026-08-20 `WeeklyRebalanceDropoutStrategy` and `OptimalStopControl` are verified
+in sync with the venv snapshot; the lake already persists the `sp_hmm_*` and
+`sp_moments` families on the 50-ETF panel.
+
+## Provenance
+
+Mined 2026-08-20 from `book/CLAIMS.md`, `book/EVIDENCE.md`, `book/README.md`,
+`book/references/chat-ideas.md`, and Series-1 `queue/` (Q01–Q11, executed exp
+33–43). Reference numbers are post-clean-lake (exp 21+).

+# QUEUE-19 — Martingale / variance-ratio study close-out (no qrun)
+
+**Status:** QUEUED · **Priority:** P2 · **Effort:** ad-hoc script under `book/data/`
+
+## Hypothesis (settle)
+Assets are submartingales long-horizon / mean-reverting short-horizon
+(`VR < 1` at 5–20d). CLAIMS.md marks this HYPOTHESIS (chat-derived martingale
+study; exp 19 was opened but never closed). It is a market-structure claim, not a
+trading claim — settle it with a clean-lake script, then close exp 19 or open a
+scripted EVIDENCE entry.
+
+## Method (persist everything under `book/data/evidence/q19-vr/`)
+1. Load the 50-ETF panel 1d bars from the lake for 2015-01-01..2026-08-19.
+2. Compute the Lo–MacKinlay variance ratio at horizons 5 / 10 / 20d per symbol,
+   with heteroskedasticity-robust z-stats.
+3. Report: per-horizon VR distribution, fraction of symbols with VR < 1 and the
+   z-significance, pooled drift vs daily variance (submartingale check).
+4. Cross-check the pooled `sp_trend_slope_5` regression beta claim (β ≈ −0.53,
+   t ≈ −24) on the clean lake.
+5. Write `VR_stats.csv` + a one-page summary into the evidence dir.
+
+## Acceptance
+- VR < 1 at 5–20d for a material fraction of the panel with |z| > 2 → supports
+  the mean-reversion HYPOTHESIS; else mark REFUTED or REFERENCED.
+- The result updates CLAIMS.md's "Assets are submartingales…" row and closes the
+  exp-19 open thread.

+# QUEUE-20 — Effective independent names in the 50-ETF book (no qrun)
+
+**Status:** QUEUED · **Priority:** P2 · **Effort:** ad-hoc script under `book/data/`
+
+## Hypothesis (settle)
+The 50-ETF book has only ~4 effective independent names (CLAIMS.md HYPOTHESIS,
+chat-derived eigenvalue analysis, pre-reset). This is a concentration/diversification
+claim with direct sizing relevance; verify it on the clean lake.
+
+## Method (persist everything under `book/data/evidence/q20-effective-names/`)
+1. Load the 50-ETF panel 1d returns from the lake for the test window 2026-01-04..2026-08-10.
+2. Standardize returns; compute the correlation matrix and its eigendecomposition.
+3. Count eigenvalues above the Marchenko–Pastur bound (N=50, T≈150) and report the
+   cumulative-variance share of the top k components.
+4. Effective-rank measures: participation ratio `(Σλ)² / Σλ²` and cumulative 80%
+   variance count.
+5. Write `eigenanalysis.csv` + a one-page summary.
+
+## Acceptance
+- If effective rank ≈ 4 (top-4 explain ~80%+ variance), the concentration claim is
+  PROVEN and feeds chapter 08 sizing guidance (why topk 10→20 adds no breadth).
+- If effective rank is much larger, mark the claim REFUTED.
