TapeCheck: every trading bot tested, and how it died

Field notes

TapeCheck organizes trading research as a failure ledger rather than a signal service. Its visible examples include 7.8 million order-book ticks collected over 41 days, 15,992 liquidation cascades, and roughly 90 chart-pattern hypotheses screened in individual investigations. The HYPE example compounds a reported -31.9% weekly result against an 11.5% buy-and-hold loss, and the page makes clear that the calculator is locked to that measured outcome rather than a prediction.
