The one rule, applied to live marks: roll when remaining time value ≤ max($0.04, 25% of collected) or spot at/past breakeven (strike + premium). Statuses refresh on every run; challenges happen during US RTH (your night), so a TRIPPED row here means act at the open or set the order now.

| Predicted survival | N | Avg predicted | Realized OTM rate | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0-60% | 177 | 56% | 62% | +6pp |
| 60-70% | 347 | 64% | 62% | -3pp |
| 70-80% | 445 | 76% | 83% | +7pp |

Touch odds: predicted 38% avg vs realized 34% touch rate over 2489 resolved (daily highs, exact intraday touch).
Regime spread: per expiry week, realized/predicted touch ranged 0.51x (W29) to 1.59x (W34) over 8 graded weeks; last week 0.83x. Every hist pill on this page carries this range in its tooltip.
🚪 Roll actuals vs playbook: 160 real buyback(s) recorded · 82 roll(s), net +$0.68/sh avg.
💸 What a touch actually costs, over 82 real rolls: buyback $6.35/sh, replacement credit financed 111% of it, leaving a net CREDIT of $0.68/sh (58 of 82 rolled for a credit). Verdict: even-roll (campaign MC) is closer: the replacement credit financed most of the buyback. E[net] charges the NET cost plus one parked cycle, not the gross buyback.
Green gap: within 7pp. A persistent negative gap means survival is overstated (model too confident); positive means too conservative. N is small early; judge after ~30 resolved.
