Adopt the R-reframe ratified in #117: the strategy's native unit is risk
(R), not pips/dollars, and its primary output is a directional bias.
- exposure -> bias: the primary output is an UNSIZED direction + conviction
`f64 in [-1,+1]`; sizing and the protective stop leave the strategy.
- Signal quality is measured in R (Stage 1): an R-evaluator integrates the
per-trade R-outcomes of a flat-1R RiskExecutor into R-expectancy. R is
defined by the stop, account-/instrument-agnostic; pips retired as the unit.
Flat-1R needs no equity, so Stage 1 is feed-forward (no cycle).
- Risk-based execution is a decoupled layer: a RiskExecutor composite
(stop-rule -> Sizer -> Veto -> position-management) per symbol, nested in a
Broker/Account composite; account mode (netting/hedging) = composition
constraint. "Sizer" is not "risk-manager" (that names the Veto layer).
- Currency P&L is Stage 2 (fixed-fractional, compounding). The only feedback
(equity -> Sizer) is cut by a z^-1 register on the fill edge (mark-to-market
stays a same-cycle price read), encapsulated in the executor; flat-1R vs
compounding is a structural axis (the explicit register is mandatory because
C23 reorders the flat graph).
- Position-event table stays the decoupled Stage-2 audit layer = first
difference of the book (deal = target - book - in_flight); the flawed 0064
exposure-integral derive is abandoned.
Touches: ledger C10 + CLAUDE.md domain invariant #7 + glossary (adds bias, R,
R-evaluator, RiskExecutor, Sizer, veto, Stage 1/2; revises broker, exposure
stream, position table, sim-optimal broker, strategy, ...). Also fixes
cross-file drift surfaced by adversarial review (C20 guarantee + front-matter
provenance still claimed "exposure stream"; cross-refs corrected to
C9/C19/C20/C23). Industry-grounded against LEAN / nautilus_trader / backtrader
/ QSTrader / vectorbt / zipline.
