The trade shown is the README’s worked example (TSLA, 19 Oct 2026). All of its numbers come from the repo’s own test fixtures: Yahoo Finance 5-minute bars, and House Clerk PTR #20035143 for the Pelosi example.

Education only, not financial advice. Most people who day trade lose money. Paper trade first.
