A second Stage-1 R strategy candidate for the edge-research milestone, a structurally
different trend mechanic than the refuted SMA-momentum: a Donchian channel breakout.
Swaps only the signal leg of the stage1-r graph —
close -> Delay(1) -> {RollingMax,RollingMin}(N) -> {Gt,Gt} -> {Latch,Latch} ->
Sub = bias in {-1,0,+1} — keeping the vol-stop R definition unchanged, so it screens
under the identical R yardstick (clean A/B vs momentum).
- aura-std: new RollingMax / RollingMin nodes (sliding-window extremum via a monotonic
deque, O(1) amortized; mirror the Sma/Delay ring-buffer shape, warm-up skip-emit,
C7/C8). The +/-1 direction latch composes from two existing Latch nodes + Sub (no new
latch type).
- aura-cli: stage1_breakout_graph + a manual-grid stage1_breakout_sweep_family
(fully-bound graph per point, sidestepping parameter-ganging since one channel length
drives both rolling nodes); --strategy stage1-breakout + --channel grid flag; usage
strings updated.
- Causality (C2): one Delay(1) on close feeds both rolling nodes, so each channel covers
close[t-N..t-1] — the current bar is excluded. Pinned by a contrastive e2e test (a
strictly rising series up-breaks every warmed bar; a window including the current bar
never could) plus a +/-1-latch-hold test.
All existing goldens byte-identical (stage1-r/sma/momentum untouched); folded-no-trace
== raw-trace metrics; workspace tests + clippy green.
